HARD|NCS DUE BACK
IN CAPITAL APRIL I

COCOA, Fla, March 22.-Tentative
plans for the remainder of President
Harding's vacation trip, as disclosed
today, contemplate return to Wash
ington between April and 10. The
vacation party today cruised on
northward with the houseboat Pion-
eer making good progress. 1t was
certain, however. that st. Augustine,
the end Of the cruise, would not be
reached before tomorrow evening at
the earliest, and possibly not before
Saturday morning.
On arriving at st. Augustine, presi-
dent and Mrs. Harding, with most
of the others of the party, will leave
the Pioneer and take quarters at the
Hotel Ponce de Leon. The visit to
ST. Augustine, where Mr.. and Mrs.
weeks each year for about eighteen
winters, is expected to extend over
next week, and probably until Easter.
The tentative plans then provide
that the party go to Augusta. Ca,
for a stay of four or Ave days. after
which they will return to Washing
ton, probably to arrive April Z, unless
the President should decide to visit
Marion, Ohio, on his way back. When
he first began to consider the present
trip to Florida, he Is understood to
have contemplated returning by way
of Marion so that he might visit with
home folks, but recently he is said
virtually to have given up the idea.

PARIS. March 22.-Every step re-
ported as having been made by the
Germans or on behalf of Germany
looking toward negotiations for a set
regarded in French official circles as
a Tnaneuver with the object Of strength
enfng the German hand, it was said at
the French foreign office today. At
The same time it was again officially
denied that any negotiations were in
progress on behalf of the French gov
ernment.
a high official reiterated that Berlin
must talk directly, plainly and officially
with Paris before any German sugges-
tions are taken into consideration by
Premier Poincare.
No Information Received.
The French government, it was
said, has received no information
whatsoever tending to show that the
Germans were ready to talk in a way
There is, on the contrary, a feeling
that the Berlin government intends
TO exhaust every possible means of
resistance before giving in. and that
when it does get ready really to con-
slider a surrender it will do so only
after sounding every possible ground
for Intervention by neutrals.
There is in evidence now a well
defined note of pessimiSm in the dis
cussion of the Ruhr situation in

Van1ps in Diuorce
Suits Forced to

Female ''vamps' found guilty in
divorce cases are placed in the same
category with male ''home wreckers"
by decision today of Chief Justice
Mccoy assessing costs and attor-
ney's fees against woman named
as correspondent in a wife's suit.
This is said to be the first time in
this District that a judgment of this
kind has been rendered against a
female correspondent, although male
codefendants are frequently required
to bear the cost of divorce litigation.
In awarding Mrs. Jennie +. Stein
an interlocutory decree for an abso-
lutte divorce from George Mitchell
Stein. the chief justice ordered the
husband and Grace Merry, named as
respondent, to pay Attorney Leon

HAS APPROVAL OF NEW
Procedure Has Precedent in
Elevation of Post
master Chance.

Every indication today pointed to
the appointment OF william NJ.
Mooney. chief clerk of the Post
Washington to succeed Merritt o.
Chance, who resigned yesterday aft
er eight years as head Of postal af-
fairs in the District.
Promotion of Mr.. Mooney, which
would be by way of recess appoint
ment, would obviate the necessity of
holding non-assembled examinations
by the Civil Service Commission to
fill the vacancy. Mr.. Chances resig
nation becomes effective April 80.
New to Recommend Course.
1t was understood today on author
ity that Postmaster General New will
send a recommendation for the pro-
motion of Mr.. Mooney from chief
clerk, Post Office Department. to post
master Of Washington, to President
Harding, who will make it a recess
appointment
There is already plenty Of prece-
dent for this course, as Postmaster
Chance was promoted in the same
way from the same position, he hav-
ing been chief clerk of the Post Office
Department when he was made post
master eight years ago.
Civil service laws on the subject ex-
pressly state that the examinations
are to be held If the position is not
filled by the nomination of some per-
fI,fr ha ,I,
civil service who has the required
qualifications.
VIII BE Examined Orally.
In case Mr.. Mooney is recommend
ed for the promotion, the Civil Serv-
ice Commission will examine him or
ally and by investigation, as he must
be found to meet the minimum re-
quirements for the position. He must
be found to have occupied for at least
five years a position requiring organ
izing ability. and the ability to direct
and manage business affairs
Mr.. Mooney has had long experience
in the Post Office Department. and for
the past several years has been chief
clerk of the department, and before
that diSbursing officer Tor many years.
Procedure of Examination.
If not filled by the appointment
of one within the classified competi-
tive civil service, the Post Office De-
partment would find itself under the
compulsion of notifying the Civil Ser
vice Commission that there is va
cancy in the postmastership OF Wash
ington. D. c.
Then the commission would an
nounce an examination for the posi-
ton, setting the date for the close
Of application.
The commission would report to
the Postmaster General the names
of the three candidates to pass with
the highest averages. From the three
the Postmaster General would make
his selection for recommendation to
the President for appointment.

BERLIN, March 22.-Germany is
willing to accept the intervention
Of the league OF nations in the Ruhr
question, and in advance will agree
to abide by its ruling. it was report
ed today. For some time the paciflsts
and socialists have been urging
Chancellor Cuno to get in touch with
the officials in Geneva because no
country seemed inclined of its own
volition to act as mediator.
Opposition to such a move has been
strong, especially in nationalistic
circles, where the claim is made that
Germany has been disappointed too
,often by the league to appeal to it
again. Now Paul Loebe, president of
the reichstag, comes out in favor Of
having Germany join the league and
ask for its intervention.
ReconciIed to League.
We in Germany have had ample
reason to complain about the leagues
rulings in the past" Herr Loebe
writes, but it is also certain that the
league has been blamed for many
sins which were committed by the su-
preme council, reparations commits
sion and other strictly allied bodies
Even the most pronounced reaction
ary who has any sense left at all
should vote for going into the league
now, because it alone can hope to set
tie international disputes such as the
Ruhr question"
The German home front" in the
,ituhr dispute seems to be getting
'%hakier every day. These are the
symptoms: Yelled talk of great
reparations questions after Easter; f;
secret trips by German politicians
abroad. particularly to London, to
sound out the attitude toward inter
Nention of countries not involved In.
the Ruhr invasion. and long confer
,ences between cabinet ministers and
industrial leaders. at which Ger
manys new proposals are thought to
be discussed.
Mystery at Foreign once.
Chancellor Cuno's present visit to
southern Germany enables him to
confer with the governments of
Bavaria and Wurttenburg on the
question of negotiations. BY the time
he gets back the reichstag will have
adjourned for its Easter holidays and
there will be lull in politics for two
or three weeks. For quite while
there have been mysterious doings be-
hind the scenes in Wilhelmstrasse
and strange men have been going in
and out at the foreign office and the
ChancellOrS palace. So far, however,
secret diplomacy has prevailed and no
definite Information as to the nature
OF the conferences has leaked out.
