BILL GETS 0. K. OF TAMPA
TAMPA. FLA.. April 24 The Board
of Trade last night indorsed the
cig ir manufacturers’ proposition to
make cigars in bond just as liquors
are bottled in bond, unci Florida’s
delegation in Congress is asked to
work for the measure at Washington.
Cigar buyers would know whether they
were getting domestic or foreign

WASHINGTON, April 2 4.—Criti
cism of what has been termed a
political appointment in naming Wil
liam C. Harris, a Georgia politician,
us director of the census, prompted
President Wilson to-day to define
his attitude toward appointments to
positions demanding scientific experts
Mr. Wilson said his mind was clear
that for all positions which demand
ed scientific training alone no consid
eration should be given to political
preference in making appointments.
He differentiated the directorship
i of the census from this classification.
He declared that so much Judgment
as to the development and movement
of the business of the country was
involved in filling this position effi
ciently that something more than
scientific training was demanded of
the appointee.
BOSTON, April 24. — "Society
ilance«» eclipse in boldness anything
attempted in public halls, and are
mainly responsible for the abuses de
veloped in dance halls." said Mayor
John F Fitzgerald.
The Mayor announced that unless
dance hull conditions were improved
he would close up "the most offensive
places,’’ and might be compelled to
adopt a uniform hour for closing,
either midnight or 1 o’clock, for all
other ball rooms.
