SMITH IS SILENT
 0N APPOINTMENT
Declines to Say Whether He'll
 Accept

Chicago. Dec. IS (P) - quiet reiened today in the Washington and Illinois sectors in the fight ccnterng around Gov. Smalls appointment of Frank l.. Smith to succeed the late Senator William E. Mckinley for the four months of the short session of congress.
 The senator-clect, who came 10 Chicago with Mrs. smith for u Christmas shopping tour, said he had nothing 10 say regarding his appointment and would not have anything 10 say until l feel it is in cumbent on me to do so.'
 In Washington the issue was tenn porarly cast aside ny the senate, pending word whether Col. ,rlith would accept the commission. The senate Hull came when Senator Ashurst. democrat, Arizona, an- nounced that ho would defer action on lis resolution to prevent Mir. smith from taking the oath If and until Smith presents his credentials. This stopped republican leaders who were prepared to fight consideration of the resolution until Col. Smith made known his decision.
 Col. Smith planned to return 10 his home in Dwight. H., today after explaining that he had not received either the commission to the short or 10 the long term, but that they probably had been forwarded to his office at Dwight in his absence.
 Asked point blank "are you going to accept the appointment His reply was a smile.
 While the senator-eloct was un- communicative, Senator Denoen, of Illinois said at Washington he would not be "surpriscd' if Smith declined the appointment because of the con- ditioa of his health. Senator Deneen s.&ted, however, that he had not communicated with Col. Smith.
 Washington dispatches indicated a new clement in the situation in recording that a number of senators. particularly those from the south, were inclined to proceed cautiously. because a refusal to accept Smiths credentials might strike a blow at the theory Of states rights. The fight on Smith has centered around contributions 10 his primary fund in his campaign for the long session of congress. while the short session commission Is simply a state ap- pointment.
