STATE DEPARTMENT POST
VACANT SINCE DECEMBER
President Delays Choice of Assist
ant Secretary to Succeed Nelson
T. johnson, Transferred.

Apparently the President is having
some trouble in the selection of an AS
SiStant Secretary of State to fill the va
cancy which has existed since last De-
cember, when Nelson T. johnson re-
signed that ONCE to accept the appoint
ment Of United States Minister TO
China. At the State Department it is
said that no action may be taken until
after Secretary Stimson returns from
his vacation in the Adirondacks in Sep
TENDER. In another official quarter the
impression prevails that the office is
being held open for a certain promi-
nent gentleman of high diplomatic at
tainments, who will not be available for
the Office for several months.
AS the vacancy existed during the
session of Congress, any person APP
pointed TO the ONCE during the recess
would not be entitled to any compen-
} sation for his service unless and until
his appointment was confirmed at a
subsequent session.

 Argument was made that gaso- line pumps may be installed on the opposite intersection of Franklin square and Pearl street, an equal distance from the church, and that the ordinance therefore does not benefit the church, but discriminates against the appellant.
 Steps which preceded adoption Of the zoning ordinance were review ed. as was the oral application for a permit and the refusal of the in spector on the ground of it's prox- unity to the church. Appeal was not taken 10 the board of adjust ment because that board was with out authority, Attorney Gaffney eX- plained.

 The corrupt motives of the con- mon council in enacting section l-g of the zoning ordinance have been established. The court had no all formative other than to nullify the ordinance"
 Reasons were given why a writ of mandamus was asked, concluding with the argument that no other remedy was at hand.
 In a paragraph close to the con- clusion, he declared: After the de- cision of the court, the attorney for the respondents continued to ride two horses. He moved for a further hearing on the matter to hear cumulative evidence on two points. He did this after he had con- mended the perfection of his ap- peal to the supreme court of errors, SO that he was treating the matter as final and claiming that it was not final"
