HARDWICK RESIGNS HIS
PLACE IN DEPARTMENT

ATLANTA, April 17.-Forme~
Gov. Thomas w. Hardwick gave out
the information here today that he
has rendered to the Attorney Gene
raj of the United States his resign,
ton as a member of the advisory
council of the United States Depart
ment of Justice, and that the resig-
nation has been accepted effective
this date. 1t was rendered several
days ago.
The increase of his private prac-
tice and other private business in
terests, he said, have become such
that he cannot longer divide his
time.
He was appointed to the post in
the Department of Justice by former
Attorney General Daugherty i'm

speak? When he came into office
he announced that his ambition was
to continue the policies of the la
mented predecessor, and in order to
do that he kept around him and close
to him all the agents and advisers
whom President Harding had select
ed. Long after the Attorney Gen.
ral, Mr.. Daugherty, either right
ly or wrongly, had become discred-
tied throughout the nation the Presi-
dent expressed his confidence in
that officer and refused to permit
him to resign.
Twice the former Attorney Ger
eral asked permission to retire, ard
the President said, mo; l believe
in you, and need you,' and he re-
NAMED in the Cabinet. After this
body had ordered an investigation
of the Department of Justice and
of the Attorney General, the Pres
ident said that he still had conf
.dence in that officer, and that ha
would not permit him to resign.
Senator Robinson declared tina.
Mr., Coolidge knew at the time the
investigation began as we'll as when

ton that the Department Of Justice
was not functioning efficiently, but
that fact did not prompt him to APP

100000 has been spent in
the past FIVE years, so
