RATINGS To
Be ASKED
Commander of Veterans Of
Foreign Wars Will Seek this
Action From Coolidge

The issue over publicity for IF.
ticency ratings OF Federal employees,
made under the classification act,
Is to be brought before Presiden.
Coolidge.
When General John H. Dunn,
national commander of the Veterans
of Foreign Wars, calls at the White
House to protest against the dis
nIissal Of former service men from
the Government Printing Office. he
will ask the President to issue an
executive order making all effici-
ency ratings in the Government
departments public.
Under present conditions, EN-.
ployes may examine their own ef-
ficiency ratings and those of their
fellow workers in a given bureau
under Stipulations made by the
Personnel Classification Board. De
pite this, however, it is said that
employees who were discharged or
furloughed by Public Printer Carter
were denied an opportunity to see
their ratings.
President Harding issued an eXecu-
tive order in March, 1923, to the
effect that no service man should
he dismissed from the Government
employ providing his efficiency rat
ing is satisfactory.

The advent of the new Attorney
General will bring the White House
and the Department OF Jutsice into
closer oentact than they have been
for years. Sargent is from Presi'
dent CooliGlge's, home district. The
Coolidge farm adjcins the Sargent
farm in Vermont, and the President
and his Attorney General have been
friends from boyhood. They have
the same background.
Some of the problems that con-
front the new Attorney General IRE
inherited from the Daugherty ad-
m.nistration-notab the prosecu'
ton of the case against Senator Bur
ton X. Wheeler for alleged con-
spiracy in the use OF influence in
Government departments.
Attorney General Stone sup
ported Daugherty's policy in this
noted case, which is now pending
in the courts of Montana and the
District of Columbia.
Tax Return Test.
Another important case which Sar-
gent will have to jump into at once
is the court test OF the legality OF
publishing income tax returns-'set
for argument before the Supreme
Court on April 13.
War fraud cases. hanging fire Tor
several years; number OF antitrust
prosecutions; enforcement Of the
packers consent decree; inveSttga-
tionS into numerous cases arising
under the Sherman. law and the
Clayton act and involving alleged
combinations in restraint\ Of trade
these are the outstanding matters
with which the first Vermont At
torney General in history will havc
to deal In the months Immediately
ahead.
A number OF important opinions
also will have to be rendered soon,
the most notable Of which is one
having to do with the legality OF
activities Of various trade associa'
tons. Secretary of Commerce
advisory opinion. Upon 1t hinges
many possible suits under the anti
trust laws.
1t is probable that a quiet reor-
ganizatiOn of the department will
take place under the new Attorney
General.
Solicitor General James M. Beck
will shortly retire. II is understood
he already has submitted his resig
nation. though no public announce
ment Of 1t has been made. Beck
has twice been a candidate for the
Attorney Generalship himself when
Daugherty resigned and when Stone
was elevated to the Supreme Court,
but each time has been passed
over.
The new Attorney General will
get a taste Of patronage difficult
ties at the outset due to the large
number Of vacancies that exist. not
only in his own department, but
throughout the country in Judge
ships. district attorneyships, etc.
President Coolidge has refrained
from filling these vacancies during
the long fight on the Warren APP
pointment.
The Attorney General was due to
arrive In Washington this after
noon for his first conference with
Mr.. Coolidge. He will go direct to
the White House. where he will be
a guest for several days.

Important Victory.
The Sinclair motion to strike out

they will make no attempt to dis
