Ex-GERMAN DUKES ART
MAY COME TO AMERICA
Husband of Victoria Luise, Daugh-
ter of Former Kaiser, Is Hard
Pressed Financially.
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
HANOVER, Germany. October g.
Because Ernst August. former Duke of
Brunswick and husband of the former
Kaisers only daughter Victoria Luise,
is hard pressed financially, Germany
may soon lose a valuable collection of
art relics to America The collection.
known as the Guelph treasure, is of
early handwrought Jewels and furniture,
including a cupboard and other relics
brought by Henry the Lion from the
Holy Land in 1173 when he made a
pilgrimage there.
AS sole heir and successor to the
Dukes of Cumberland, Ernst August
inherited this treasure. Beginning in
1896. it was exhibited for many years
at the Vienna Museum for art and
industry. Later it was returned to the
Duke of Brunswick, who quietly shipped
the treasure to Switzerland to avoid the
possibility that the federal art COM
missioner might attempt to prevent its
sale.
Ernst August Is now reported to have
commissioned an art dealer to sell the
collection to America for $10.000,000 on
the condition that it be disposed of
intact.

Warnings against possible typhoid fever

FUTURE Of ENJOYS
UP TO PRESIDENT
Coolidge Holds Successor
Has Power to Fix Fate
of Career Men.

Whether the career men In the for
eign service of this Government remain
at their present diplomatic posts after
the present administration goes out of
Office next March is a decision for the
incoming President to make, President
Coolidge has decided.
The President is satisfied that the
Constitution gives the President of the
United States authority to select his
own diplomatic representatives and it
is matter for the occupant of that
Office to say whether or not his diplo-
matte appointments shall be from the
career men in the service or from the
outside.
While discussing the subject with
callers today, President Coolidge was
represented as looking upon the recent
reports that career men in the foreign
service already have determined to
withhold their designations at the ex-
piration of the present administration,
as a recurrence of the disposition on
the part of certain Government officials
to constitute themselves a Self-per-
petuating body.
The President realizes. however. that
this country has been endeavoring for
a number of years to build up its for
eign service by promotions within the
ranks. and if this is the sole purpose
limiting the powers of the President in
the matter of removals from the foreign
service, he thinks there might be some
reason for giving it consideration. But
at the same time the President is con-
scious OF the existence of the endeavor
on the part of certain officers to make
their posts self-perpetuating. Therefore.
Mr.. Coolidge is of the opinion that it
is wholly matter to be determined by
the Executive If Ambassadors and
Ministers to foreign countries do not re-
sign at the end of the present admins
tration, as is the custom, the incoming
President. according to Mr.. Coolidge,
has the authority to remove them.

HOOVER TO FIGHT
TO WIN NEW YORK
Leaders to See Him Tomor-
row to Plan for His Visit
on October 22.

Herbert Hoovers visit to the side
walks of New York on october % will
be made the occasion for highly inn
portant council of war" to discuss
strategic plans for wrestling the Empire
state from its own governor, Alfred E.
Smith.
1t is increasingly evident that Hoover
and his advisors plan a determined
drive in the Smith stronghold. They
entertain high hopes for Republican
success there in November.
An all-day series of conferences with
State party leaders will be held at the
Waldorf Astoria Hotel, according to
tentative arrangements. The program
for the day will culminate in Hoover's
appearance before a vast crowd in
Madison Square Garden for his fourth
and final speech in the East.
Confer Here Tomorrow.
Plans for the invasion of New York
will be made at conference at Hoo
ver's headquarters here tomorrow be-
tween the Republican nominee and two
of the New York campaign heads
Charles D. Hilles, Republican national
committeeman. and H. Edmund Mac
hold, Republican State chairman.
Hoover will arrive in New York City
on Monday morning, week after next,
and will go to the hotel for the poll
tical forum with State leaders. Prob
lens confronting the party in Gov.
Smiths State will be discussed frankly,
and Hoover may make a few sugges-
tions of his own regarding the con-
duct of the campaign there. The de-
liberationS will be interrupted for
luncheon, but will be resumed in the
afternoon.
In the meantime Hoover is devoting
much attention to the drafting of his
New England speech in which the tariff
issue will be stressed This speech will
be delivered in Boston next Monday
night. He is not expected to complete
the writing of this address until the
end of the week. He is giving careful
conditions in the textile industry in
Massachusetts,. 1t is predicted the
nominee will picture the widespread
distress that would occur in this in
dustry and others If Republican tariff
policies were forsaken.
Gives Muscle Shoals View.
Hoover issued statement last night
explaining his views on the development
of Muscle Shoals. He favors dedication
of the big plant to the cause of agri-
cultural research. The statement fol-
lowed publication in the Knoxville News
of an article declaring that Hoover re-
ferred to Muscle Shoals in speaking at
Elizabethton, Tenn, on the "desirability
of Government ownership in certain in
stances"
Some discussion has arisen in con-
nection with Muscle Shoals" Hoover
