Harding administration refused sew
eral preferred appointments to high
office, among them that of Internal
| to Peru, and Assistant Secretary of
| Commerce.
Mr. Slemp will take up his new
duties at the White House on Sept.
4, Immediately following Labor Day.
He has asked the president for three
weeks within which to wind up his
numerous business and private af-
fairs so that thereafter he can devote
his entire time and attention to his
duties as first aid to the chief execu-
tive.
In the three weeks before he ac-
lively takes up his new duties Mr..
slemp will give considerable time to
learning all that is possible about the
things that will be required of him.
He left Washington Immediately fol-
lowing his appointment for his home
at Big Stone Gap, Va, to spend a day
or two on personal affairs, after which
he will go to Cincinnati and Chicago
to put various important business
matters in shape. as
After that he will spend some time
with Charles D. Hilles, who was sec
rotary to President Taft; with Will
liam Loeb, who handled so acceptably
the place as secretary to President
Roosevelt; and with George Christian,
who was secAtery to the late Presi-
dent Harding. From these three men
he hopes to learn a great deal about

new chief in 1924: and the ninth dis.
trict OF Virginia. which he and his
father before him kept in the repub-
lican ranks for 26 years on a stretch,
will In all probability remain In tho
fold OF the democrats, closing up what
was for years the only gap in the
ranks OF the solid South"
Mr.. Slemp will fill larger place
than that usually held by the secre-
tary to the president. He will, to a
great extent handle all political af-
fairs for President Coolidge and be his
political adviser.
Slemp, who is the republican ma
t:onal committeeman for Virginia, is
closely acquainted with the repubi-
can leaders In all the Southern states.
Shortly after the election of Presi-
dent Harding he was appointed chair
man of subcommittee of the repub-
lican national committee to effect d
better organization of the republic
cans in all the southern states. and to
work out settlement of their SQUAD
bles over patronage. In this way he
had numerous meetings with all the
republican leaders in the South and
is in good position to influence the
pledging of all the southern delegates
to the republican national convention
for Coolidge.
Because of his 1e years of service
in the House of Representatives be-
fore he voluntarily retired last March,
the last several years of which he
served on the House Appropriation
committee. Mr.. Slemp will stand in
fine, position to advise President Cool
idge regarding legislation on Capitol
Hill and to deal with the leaders in
the Senate and House for the presi-
dent.
Mr.. Slemp is a man of high caliber
and if President Coolidge should be
reelected in 1924. as now seems quite
likely. Slemp will probably get cab
met place in the next administration.
Lead pecils were first known IN
1865.

Group practice" was put forth as the
next step in the development of hos
pitfalls in America by Dr. Joseph L.
Decourcy, Cincinnati, widely known
goter specialist, in an address before
the Catholic Hospital Association here
today.
Group medicine is one more step
forward in our modern disqualification
system said DIR. Decourcy, and the
plan can be worked both to the advan-
tage ofthe physician and the patient.
The old fear and dread of hospitals
that have been in the minds of the
people up until fifteen or twenty years
ago. is slowly passing away. and hos
pitfalls today are not considered just one
step from the undertaken. but rather
logical place TO be taken when i'll or
injured. People no longer look upon
an operation at the hospital with fear.
but rather a relief from their physi-
cal troubles"
Hospital authorities" continued DIR.
Decourcy, are beginning to realize
that they must install a large number
of observation rooms for patients; the
patient to remain in these rooms until
a complete examination is made by the
attending physician and surgeon. At
present few of the hospitals have these
observation rooms in adequate num-
ber."

exert to obtain promotion, according
to the Commissioners second COM
mandment.
The Commissioner says since de-
partment heads have full RESPONSE
bility they must have corresponding
authority. In pursuance of this
thought, Maj. Bell states that places
will be filled by the best applicants
land no person is to be taken care
Of because he is the friend of some
person of prominence"
1t shall be the duty of all employees
to report directly to the Engineer
Commissioner any instance of disloy-
atty or dishonesty, the order states,
but unless such charges are accom-
panied by adequate proof the accuser
will be punished.
Maj. Bell concludes the notice with
the observation that the engineer de-
partment now has an excellent repu-
tation for loyal and efficient service
and he admonishes each man to strive
to maintain that reputation.

At the last electio nthe Labor
party made the strongest showing
next to the Conservatives. It's been
freely predicted that next time
Labor would win. Yet there are
numerous Liberals who would vote
with Conservatives and many Con-
servatives who would join the Lib
erals rather than see a Labor gov
eminent. It's easy to understand
why. Labor favors paying Eng
lan's war indebtedness right up,
not By ordinary taxation methods,
but by taking from the rich a part
of their capital to pay what the
nation owes The Conservatives
and Liberals alike constitute the
propertied class. Naturally they
don't like this Laborite plan. Labor
probably can't beat both Conserva-
