Mrs. Mabel Walker Willebrandt Underwood to Be Choice for
 Northern California
SHE NOW IS SERVING AS
 ASSISTANT ATTORNEY GEN.
Opposition However, Springs Up From California Legislators And No Definite Statement Has Been Given Out-Posslble Choice Has Been In Charge of Prohibition Cases In Dept. of Justice.

Washington, Jan. 10. --, Appoint meEt of Mrs. Mabel Walker Wille- brandt, now an assistant attorney general, to the vacancy in the fed eral court for northern California, is understood to be under considera- tion by President Coolidge.
 Mrs. Willebrandt, who has been in charge of prohibition cases in the department of justice, called on Mr. Coolidge today and although no off, cial announcement was made, there were indications that her nomina- ton as the first woman to sit as @ federal judge might go to the capital shortly.
 Disagreement Reported
 There has been a disagreement among California members of con- gress regarding the appointment, however, and immediately after word of the possibility of Mrs. Willie brandt's selection reached the cap- ital. Senator Shortridge, republican, of that state, left his office for the White House.
 A former practicing attorney in Los Angeles, Mrs. Willebrandt was appointed assistant general at the outset of the Harding administra- ton. As an ou.growth of her super vision over liquo: cases she has be- come the inevitable storm center of q number of serious controversies. and has been instrumental in the dis charge Of a number of district at- torneys and assistant attorneys, who disagreed with the justice depart ment over liquor prosecutions.
 The New Jersey Case
 The latest incident in which she 1 figured prominently was that of ss. sistant District Attorney Van Ripcr of New Jersey, who was forbidden by her to have anything to do with prosecution of the Weehawken rum cases and who consequently was forced out of office.

OBITUARY
Mrs. Ada Laramy

Mrs. Laramy passed away Thurs
day night, Jan. 8. 1925, at her home
in this city.
Ada Adell Kelsey was born in
Owatonna, Mimi, Aug. 81, 1866, and
while but an infant she, with her
parents, moved to Cottage Grove,
Mimi, where she grew to woman
hood, and on March %, 1888, married
Frank C. Laramy of that city.
To this union was born five child
rem, Blanche, Harry, Floyd and
Lloyd, and Clarence. Two of these
Blanche and Clarence, have gone on
before, and with their father are well
coming their mother to their. Heaven
~ Home.
About twenty years ago, Mr.. and
Mrs. Laramy brought their family
from Cottage Grove and located on a
farm few miles east of River Falls.
There Clarence died in 1909 and Mr.
Laramy died in 1915.
Shortly after his death Mrs.
Laramy moved to this city where she
made her home the remainder of her
life. Her genial, sincere disposition
won for her host of warm friends,
who regret her leaving.
Her connection with the South
Fork Ladies' Aid and the Relief
Corps, of which she was a loyal
member for many years, she never
severed, although her i'll health that
extended over several years, pre-
vented her from active work in either
organization of late.
Only those nearest to her realized
how great was her suffering, for she
bore all so uncomplainingly and
with remarkable patience and cheer
fitness.
She leaves to mourn her departure
three devoted sons, Harry of Spring
Valley, and the twins, Floyd and
Lloyd of Chippewa Falls; also sis
ter Mrs. George Cox of this city and
a brother, Earl Kelsey of Minneap-
oils.

ance at the funeral Saturday morn
ing and accompanied the remains to

keene, Mrs. Ida Keene, Mr.. and Mrs
Ray Howard, and Mr.. and Mrs. John
Laramy of st. Paul Park; Mr. and
Mrs. Earl Kelsey, Mr.. and Mrs.
Stanley Harper and Mrs. Jos. Harper
Of Minneapolis.

BUICK TRAVELS
AROUND THE
WORLD
Car, Now on Display Here,
Made Trip Quicker Than
Globe FIiers

The around-the-world Buick. which
has just completed it's trip. arrived
in this city today and will be on
exhibition for twenty.four hours at
the show rooms Of Emerson and
orme, local Buick dealers at 1920
M street northwest.
The globe-trotting Buick, accord
ing to Bruce Emerson, circ:led the
world entirely alone, without a per
manent driver or mechanic. 1t
made the trip in less time than
that consumed by the round-the
world filters. The car was passed
from the hands Of one Buick dealer
to the next, entirely around it's big
circle some $50 drivers driving It
before it returned to New York, it's
official starting point.
The car, standard six touring
model, also completed the trip with
out needing a repair or replace
ment OF any part en- route, though
1t had the assurance OF Buick au
thorized service during its entire
journey, every one Of its nearly
10000 miles of land travel was
within the sales and service terri
tory Of some Buick dealer.

The trip around the world was
planned to demonstrate that q
Buick will stand the driving Of
all kinds Of drivers and punishment
OF all kinds OF roads. And that It
can go clear out to the fringes OF
the earth and still be safeguarded

The only special preparation Tor
the trip was the installation OF two
extra spare tires on the running
boards-four spare tires altogether
and then the installation or sup
Elementary oil, gasoline ana water
tanks, also on the running boards.
These were to carry supplies on the
desert where filling stations are
hundreds Of miles apart instead or
every few feet as in the big cities
or q few miles as in small towns.

SAME TERMS
AS BRITAIN
Congressional Sentiment Is
Against Giving Caillaux
Special Favors.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 1T.-tP--
As the French debt commission saiI'

ton, Finance Minister Csillaux con-
fined himself TO this declaration as
the mission which he is heading sailed
yesterday from Hayre:
Il am going to Washington TO tell
them: France is ready TO settle |"
MAY GRANT DELAY.
While the financial position Of the
French government may possibly in
fluence the American authorities TO
agree to a moratorium Of a few years
before actual payments on principal
and interest account shall begin,
Chairman Borah of the Senate For
eign Relations Committee, is one Of
the congressional leaders who sees no
reason to depart from the basis Of
ths British settlement in funding the
French debt.
Senator Smoot, Republican, Utah, a
member of the American debt commits
sion, declared in a formal statement
that the settlement with France must
Be- reached without reference to any
debt settlement agreement between the
French and British governments.
- BRITISH HOPEFUL.
Coincident with Senator Shoots
statement here, Winston Churchill,
chancellor Of the exchequer, declared in
m address at Birmingham, England,
that he hoped the French and Ameri-
can commissions would reach an agree
ment here, ~in harmony with the gen
eral interests Of the whole world"
The British chancellor, the dis
patch said, announced in the address
that he had received a letter from |
the French finance minister informing |
him that the French government had
accepted in principle the figure Of

instead Of 10 a cell, for his trips to
