Next Sunday in the Want Ad Section Daugherty Won’t Quit Under Fire ♦ Attorney (ieneral Demands Hearing on All Charges, and May Not Resign ^ hen Acquitted. Leaves Capital Suddenly Washington. Feb. 27.—Attorney General Daugherty will remain for the present a member of President Coolldge's cabinet, but he will he ex peoted to retire to private life as soon as the senate has completed its inquiry into his administration of the Department of Justice. His determination not to resign without a hearing on the charges against him was reaffirmed today In the face of growing pressure for his removal. Me even refused to promise that he would vacate his post upon termination of the senate Inquiry, hut it was apparent in other quarters that any plan for his retention be yond that time had been abandoned. This conclusion is one of the most difficult problems which Coolidge 'has had to deal with since he entered the W’hite House followed by an almost continuous succession of conferences in the midst of which the attorney gen eral himself suddenly left Washing ton. It was announced af.er his de parture that he had been called to Florida, where Mrs. Daugherty is ill, and would go by way of Chicago to attend to public business there. Tonight his determination to remain attorney general pending the senato inquiry was announced to the coun try in this terse statement, prepared before his departure and issued from the Department of Justice.

Previously he had made the same determined declaration to President Coolidge. after the president had laid before him in a conference of more than an hour the conclusions reached by the administration after a reex amination of the whole rase. The White House refrained from any pub lic statement, but it was evident that until Daugherty had announced defi nitely his refusal to retire under fire the belief in some administration quarters had been that his resignation was imminent. liNrm City In Haste A second and shorter conference with Coolidge preceded Daugherty's departure this afternoon from Wash ington. He drove directly from the White House to the union station, where a train to Chicago was held for several minutes to take him aboard. Some of his best friends had not known of his intention to leave the city, and his secretary at first refused to confirm or deny the story of his departure. I>nter this statement, also prepared by the attorney general be fore he left was made public at the “I have been called to Florida on a personal matter, hut I am com pelled first to go to Chicago to attend to important government business which demands my personal attention. "1 will return from Florida as justice department: soon as I can. In the meantime proper attention will he given to all government matters. The Depart ment of Justice is functioning 100 per cent.

McAdoo tonight partially corroborated what he termed "the Youngstown story" in a statement in which he said his former legal firm in New Y'ork had represented the Republic Iron and Steel company before the Treasury de partment at Washington for a total Re of J 150,000. McAdoo's statement In full follows: “Concerning the Youngstown story, I have no hesitation in staying that my former law firm in New York was employed as counsel for the Re public Iron and Steel company, an independent concern. In a complicated tax matter at Washington. This case was heard In the regular legal way before the board of appeals and *e view of the Treasury department, a semi judicial body composed of civil service men. Whether it came before Commissioner of Internal Revenue Williams on appeal I do not recall. Briefs were filed and the case was ar gued several time. It involved very serious and important legal questions concerning invested capital ami waa of Interest, to taxpayers throughout the C-nited States. The amount In volved was large. "Th* employment began November, 1919. at which time a retainer of S10, 000 was paid, and the case was closed In the early part of 1921, whereupon an additional fee of SI 10,000 was paid the firm—the compensation being commensurate with the importance of the mailer and the serive* performed "The practice of law In New York Involves a very expensive organiza tion. high rentals, etc., and the fee* are, of rourse, high. This was not a personal fee, hut a fee to the firm and I received, of course, only my proportion of It. "There appear* to be a concerted efTort by my political enemiea to di vert atlention from the scandals at Washington by trying to attack my law practice. I have no apologies to make for it. Former associate Justice of the supreme court. Charliw E. Hughes, and other public officials after retiring from office resumed the practice of law. Just as I did, snd no one criticized them for it.

By Associated Press. Chicago, Keb *27.—The schools of this country have haidly made a be ginning In their provisions for gifted children. Prof, Bird T. Baldwin of the University of Iowa told the National Society for the Study of Kducatlon at the Congress hotel here. Professor Baldwin is director of the Iowa Child Welfare research station. “Moreover there is little or no uni formity as to methods of selecting superior children for rchool work," he said. “There is no mnsenus of opin ion as to the age or grade In which differentiation of work should take place and no provision is made for distinguishing betwee i the needs of gifted hoys and gifted girls." A concrete program for meeting this deficiency In our schools sug gested by Professor Baldwin proposes to distinguish between children who are superior both mentally and physi cally and those who are gifted In In telligence. but who are only normal In phyaical growth. For the tall, well developed and mentally gifted child he proposes acceleration of two. three or more grades. If thoroughness and accomplishment are also considered. These children will complete the course at an early chronological age with Superior knowledge nnd training on account of their superior ability and advanced stages of maturity. For the bright child who is not especially advanced In physical growth and development, I’lofrssor Baldwin proposes a quite different program. These children, he believes, should be accelerated horizontally rather than vertically. That la to say, they should be put Into speclel eec tlons of their normal echoed giade rather than be pushed up into higher grades. In these special sections they should have an rnrlehed school course with broader reading asstgn ments, special side excursions and in vestigations, and elective courses In special fields. These children will complete Ibis enriched course at the avepace igo with greatly enriched In formation. enriched altitude, and en rb I'l ti cnlng in npprnarhlng the problem of life l ire Nfiir Santa Barbara.
