Though attracting little publicity,
the solicitor generalship is one Of
the Government r4ost important
jobs. 1t had been held by many dis

Trial Lawyer
The solicitor general is the trial
lawyer for the Government, and an
average of IS 900 cases instituted by
the United States pend at all times
in the courts under Federal jurlsdic-
ton. At every term Of the Supreme
Court at least seventy-five cases
brought by the Government are on
the calendar, and the number is more
apt to run over 100.
Though known now as corpora
ton attorney and called by his
enemies ''the lawyer Of Wall Street. "
Davis, during his service as solicitor
general, represented the Government
in the famous Adamson eight-hour-
day case. the International Har-
vester. United States Steel Corpora

cite coal operator cases, and a dozen

his solicitor generalship which at

simplicity, compactness and beauty.
1t was his Flag day address. made
at Washington, June IA, 1918. and
later broadcasted throughout the
country on postcards and banners
in connection with the Liberty loan
campaigns.
Davis occupied a seat next to
President Wilson during the ecer-
monies. When he finished speaking
the President arose, advanced to.

Sent to England

The suggestion was accepted al
most Immediately, and within a few
hours Davis received a cab!egram
directing him to return at once to
the United States and prepare to
serve as ambassador to the court Of
St. James.
That. at least. Is one story. An
other is that the President had Sc
lected Davis for the British post
even before Pages retirement.
Regardless of which story is cor
rect, Davis came back to America in
November. 1919, on the same ship
with Henry ]. Allen, who. while do
ing Y. n. c. A. work abroad had
been elected Governor Of Kansas.
He returned TO Europe on the
ship that bore President Wilson to
the Paris conference.
From the day Of his arrival he
was, a favorite with the British.
They liked his manners, his studious
ness, his tact, his particular brand
Of humor and his advocacy Of the
League of Nations.
Credit for his successful ambassa-
dorial career is given in large meas
ure to Davis. second wife. whom he
had married while in Cohgess in
1912.
She was one Of the three Basel
sisters-Miss Ellen Basel of Clarks
burg-famous throughout the south
for their beauty and charm.
Davis career as an ambassador
came TO a close in 1921. when Presi
dent Harding appointed Col George

COSTS
As important to Them as to

The question when will building
costs come DOWN., is as close to
the heart OF the builder as 1t Is to
the prospective owner.
There is no prophet shrewd
enough to answer, but from all in
dications there will be no general
reduction in building costs for some
time to come. To be sure. the
super-abnormal period Of new con-
struction activity seems to have
reached its peak, and with a lower
demand 1t might seem that basic
costs would seek a lower level.
But II must be borne in mind
that during the intense building &C.
tivity there was little replacement
and repair, and a great many struc.
lures have outlived their usefulness
during the past few years. These
will be demolished and new build
Iings will take their places.

amount of repair and remodeling

buildings are demanded, and the
