At Least Three Department
Heads Are Expected
to Resign.
BY CHARLES P. STEWART
NEA Service Writer


ca AsHINGToN, Feb. "a. - If
INMl and when the Senate con-
III firms Charles B. Warren as
attorney general. the cabine. will
have been completed that President
Coolidge will take into office with
him on March 4.
Frank B. Kellogg and William M,
Jardine are also yet to be confirmed
respectively as secretaries of State
and of agriculture. but 1t is under
stood there will be no opposition to
| either of them.
Warren may have to wait until
after noon on March for his con-
firmation.
If the Democrats and Progress
sives, combined, stand pat. they can
beat him In the present Senate.
President Coolidge. however, al
ready has called the extra session of
the new one. which 1t is customary
to hold directly after an Inaugural
ton for the especial purpose OF con-
firTing new appointments, such as
an incoming chief executive usually
has to announce and wants acted on
as promptly as possible.
This is not to be confused with a
regular extra session Of Congress.
Only the Senate meets and 1t can
transact only such business as can
be disposed of with out the acquiesc-
ence of the House.
Republican Majority
At this Sentae extra session there
will be clear Republican majority
and 1t is a foregone conclusion that
it will vote favorably on the Warren
appointment.
The cabinet. then, from March 4.
will consist Of,
Frank B. kellogg. secretary Of
State.
Andrew W. Mellon. secretary Of
the treasury.
John w. Weeks. secretary Of war.
Charles B. Warren, attorney gen.
eral.
Harry s. New. postmaster general.
Curtis ID. Wilbur, secretary of the
navy.
Hubert Work. secretary of the in.
terror.
william M. Jardine. secretary of
agriculture.
Herbert Hoover. secretary of COM
merce.
James ]. Davis. secretary of labor.
However. this is not the cabinet
the president is expected to have by
Jan. 1, 1925.
More designations Likely
Secretaries Weeks. Work and Da-
Wis are expected to. retire in the
course Of the spring or early sum
mer. Postmaster General New and
Secretary Wilbur probably will do so
before the end OF the year.
Secretaries Kellogg, Mellon and
Hoover and Attorney General War
rem, barring Unforeseen accidents,
undoubtedly will hold their portfolios
throughout President Coolidge's
term.
Secretary Jardine's tenure will de-
pend on the qualities he shows and
perhaps, to some extent. on luck.
His job. just at this time, is recog-
nized as the most difficult and tick
lish that any of the presidential ad-
visers are required to hold down.
Agricultural conditions are in such
a ferment that the department head
who has to deal with them must
have. not only extraordinary ability,
but the breaks" as we'll. II he is to
last long.

Of violating the Mann act, preferred

Hartman was arrested here as a re-

and is willing to plead guilty. Mr..
Davenport, however, has received a
communication from United States

informing him that Harman's case
will be submitted to a federal grand

LIBRARY'S LOSSES
AGGREGATE $500

Books and magazines valued at no
less than $500 have been taken from
the Bozeman Public library in the last
year and a half and not returned, &C
cording to Miss Geneva Cook, lbrari-
an.
This loss has been increased by the
mutilation OF magazines and refer
ence books by thoughtless patrons
who removed therefrOm pictures and
articles that, in some cases, can not
be replaced.
Hereafter, to protect the library
from such losses, the reference, non
fiction and magazine shelves will be
closed to the public. Those wishing
to use such material may obtain 4
by personal request, giving a receipt
for what is issued to them.
Miss Cook has directed attention tt
the Montana statutes, which provide
a maximum fine of $1,000, OF a SEN
tence of one year in the state prison
for persons convicted Of cutting, dam
aging or otherwise m~utilating tn
property of a public library.

Womack landed several to the law
which brought Moore to his knees.
The Livingston man appeared Co be

in getting through the round without
serious difficulty.
Round Six Good
Round six opened with Womack
landing heavily to head and body.
After some infighting, Moore shot his
right twice to face, getting several
in the same place in return. A hard
left to jaw put Moore down for the
count Ct nine, but the bell gave him
an opportunity to r~ecuperate. It was
a good round and the fans applauded
the battlers to the echo.
Womack came out for the seventh
with a rush, landing left to Jaw, right
to body and two lefts and a right to
the jaw in rapid succession. Moore
staggered, but came back with a right
to the face. They exchanged rights
