Washington. - Newspaperdom In
washington gets blow 10 that pos
session which high-browed gentlemen
sometimes speak OF as amour propre.
There was not a newspaper correspond
ent In this town who had any thought
whatsoever that any man other than
Edward Il. Clark was TO be appointed
as secretary to the President.
IL follows just as thunder comes
after lightning. therefore, that there
was distinct surprise and something
OF chagrin. because no one had guessed
IL, when the announcement was made
at the White House that former Repre-
sentative Campbell Bascom Slemp of
Virginia had been appointed secre-
tary 10 the President and had accepted
the office.
1t is OF course, impossible always TO
analyze correctly the motives OF men.
but the politicians In Washington, nota-
bly, those members of the two political
parties who are charged with the work
of directing campaigns, think that EN-
ployment of Mr.. Slemp means Presi-
dent Coolidge wants political adviser
as well as private secretary and thar
he wants o-e who was not raised I'm
the New England school and has not
been an active participant in political
dealings In any section OF the country
In which there are party troubles. OF
course there may be Republican trou-
bles In the place In Virginia from
which Mr.. Slemp comes. but they are
Isolated and local. Campbell b. Slemp
knows the political situation In all
parts Of the United States as they af-
feet the Republican party and It's aims
but from the beginning he has been
no party TO the differences between
the factions, wherever they may have
had their being.

Clark is the Private Secretary.

Edward T. Clark will remain as
President CoolIdge's personal private
secretary. There are some politicians
here who see in the dual arrangement
a condition necessary for the Presi-
dent. II he has further political amhi-
tons. Mr.. Clark knows all about the
party troubles in New England. He
was for years the secretary to Senator
Henry Cabot Lodge. New England n

In other letters from Washington
something was said about former Pres

specifically that Mr.. Harding had a

most specific sense can be called a prl-

Has No Enemies In Party

More nearly than any other man per
haps who readily can be named. Mr.
Slemp stands as the figure of one who
knows all about II but who has aroused
10 animosities by knowing all about Il.
He never was a neutral probably ms
between Republican factions I'm any
section of the country, but Il is certain
hat in his capacity as a member OF
he Republican national committee,
md In his political work generally, he
lever has been active on one side or
he other In any trouble between the
actions of his party In any state ex-
ept his own, and Republlcanism In
Virginia Is not strong. He has made
10 party enemies East, West or
North.
VIII II. Hays. who was chairman Of
he Republican national committee in
900 and as such directed the victor
Gus Harding campaign. leaned upon
Committeeman Slemp for advice upon
Important matters affecting not Mr..
Temps home state. but other states.
IT. Hays apparently recognized the
alue of Mr.. Slemp as an observer who
as disinterested as between warning
liques and who. therefore. could be
expended upon to give unprejudlced
ounsel.

Although the grand jury will organize and be empanneled on Monday, July 9, it will remain In ses- sion only one day and will not take up the probe of the Birmingham bar.
 At a meeting of Jefferson county attorneys, held in the courthouse more than 0 week ago, committee was appointed to push the work of freeing the bar of these unethical practitioners and secure evidence to place before the grand jury when it conVenes on July 9. This committee has held two meetings and it is un- officially stated that evidence has been secured indicating that approXi- mately ten lawyers are using unethi- cal means of obtaining cases,
 As yet no special prosecutor has been named to assist Jim Davis solicitor of Jefferson county, in the grand jury investigation, and it is thought in legal circles that the reg ular county legal staff will handle the matter,
 All lawyers indicted by the grand jury will have to face criminal pro- ceedings, IS the code of Alabama classifies Ambulance chasing and unethical means of securing cases as misdemeanors.
