OFFICIALS OF D. c.
Miss Fay l. Bentley Plans to
Take Oath Within Four
Days.
INCUMBENT REFUSES
TO RESIGN HER POST
Insists on Considering Herself
Judge Until Senate o. ks
Recess Appointment.

District officials were puzzled yester-
day over the problems raised by the ap-
pointment Of Miss Fay l.. Bentley to
the post Of Juvenile Court judge.
Miss Bentley has announced she will
days, while the incumbent, Judge Kath-
ryn Sellers, has stated in writing that
she will not resign and will still con-
slider herself the judge Of the court un-
til after the Senate confirms Miss Bent
ley's recess appointment.
If both of the parties hold firm in
their announced intentions, Maj. Daniel
J. Donovan, District auditor, will have
to decide before November Is which
shall get the salary OF the Judge OF the
court. If he is incorrect in his deci
sion, Maj James R. Lusby, the disburs-
ing officer, will have to make the error
good.
MAI. Donovan Silent.
Efforts to discover what Maj, Dono-
van intended TO do yesterday were all
met with his statement: II have no
comment" He would not say whether
he would put the matter up to the Com
mlSlOntTS for solution,
1t is generally believed at the District
passed along to Controller General NC
Carl for solution. This is the course
suggested by Judge Sellers.
1t was learned that in the normal
course of events the salary Of a presi-
Dental appointee begins the day he or
she subscribes to the oath Of office, re-
gardless of whether the appointee goes
to work Immediately or not. But If
Call ic y1n
salary could be paid to Miss Bentley
until Judge Sellers is either removed or
resigns. or until the Senate has con-
Explains Point.
Miss Sellers has said quite plainly
that she would not resign. She ex-
planned her point in the following
language In her letter;
In view of the fact that the law
creating the Juvenile Court as well as
my commission provides that my term
of office shall be for six years or until
q successor is appointed and confirmed.
I am of the opinion that a vacancy did
not exist to which Miss Bentley could
have been appointed.
THE right Of the President Of the
United States to remove for cause is
not questioned. 1t Is simply the fact
that there was no vacancy to which
she could be appointed. 1, therefore.
believe that I am carrying out the will
of the Congress that enacted the Juve-
nile Court law in holding that unless
am removed for cause l am the judge
Of this court until my successor has
been appointed and confirmed
In another letter Judge Sellers had
notified Maj. Lusby Of my intention
to continue in office until my successor
Is confirmed or unless I am removed
for cause, no such action having been
taken"
