PRESIDENT HARDING ORDER!
REGULATIONS MODIFIED

Administration Will Have Free
H**k1 it* Exercising Judgment It
in Naming Postmasters
Washington, May 10.?Civil servic
restrictions governing the choice o
* postmasters were modified by Presi
den Harding today to give the ad
ministration a treer nami in exercis
ing its own judgment in regard to th
qualifications of applicants.
In an executive order affecting ap
^ proximately 13,000 postoffices of th
f* first, second and third classes th
president authorized the selection o
any one of the first three on the eli
gible list as determined by open com
petitive examinations. TTn-der an or
der of President Wiison the executiv
could exercise no such choice but wa
I * required to appoint* the applican
( j standing at the head of the fist.
I In making the order public Mi
Harding issued a statement saying
the oew arrangement had been decid
ed on because it would .permit sue!
.elements as business training and ex
perience to figure in the selection o
postmasters and would not stake t'n<
choice merely on "a cloistered, sfcho
} lastic examination whicli might re
salt in. a high irrade in theory bift no
i a guaranty of efficiency jn 'fact."
| ( - j- - . *
The president also pointed out tha
a .ehoiee amon^ the first three al
ready is permitted for clas:
po?f masterships under ijpejseianeri
civil service regulations as fixed bj
law. He expressed the'hope that con
gress would extend these permanen
regulations to all postmasterships bi
biinging them under the ^Igssifiec

I GERMANY ACCEPTS
ALLIED CONOITIONS
^ Dr Wirth, Centerist Leader, Finallj
^ Succeeds in ming C ablngt ,WitK
Himself
Berlin, May jpf* (By the Associatec
Press).?Germ^Jy has accepted th<
0 allied ultimatum!; The reichstag to
night by a vote#f 221 to 175 yieldec
to the final demands of -the alliec
powers, and in::!so -doing, agreed t<
fulfill, the terms, of the treaty of Ver
sailles "to the Rapacity" ,of the na
tion to do so. Wirth, the Cen
terist leader, finally succeeded ir
forming a coalition cabinet compose(
of Centerists, Majority Socialist;
* anil Democrats, which, confronted bj
grave necessity, speedily decided tha
acceptance of the ultimatum was th<
only course.
In making tffris announcement t<
the reichstag tfite new chancellor ask
ed for an immediate decision by tha
body and in voting which followe(
the government was sustained.
1 Th^ allied ultimatum required i
definite reply r based on "yes" o
"no." No conditional reply woul<
be entertained, and the ultimatun
was formulated to expire on the nigh
of May 12.
The total sum which Germany i
called upon to pay is 6,75u,wu,uuu
disarmament must be carried out b;
Germany in accordance with the pro
vision of the treaty and the trial o
war criminals must be put into ef
feet. Numerous other importan
terms, in which Germany has been ii
default, will be accepted.
Non compliance with the ultima
i turn would have subjected German;
T to occupation by the allies of th
Ruhr valley and whatever other milli
tary and naval measures were deem
ed advisable.
The new cabinet is generally re
' ^ ' t
garded as a makeshift largely un
/ representative but good enough t
accept the entente ultimatum, am
thus avoid an advance in the Ruhr.
While the cabinet obtained a com
fortable majority in the reichstag i
has the undivided support of onl;
the Majority Socialists and Clericals
The members of the other parties, i
r* is declared have given it support a
a makeshift and are not pledged t
give it parliamentary support.
