TAWNEY'S BERTH USELESS.
Who will get James A. Tawney's
$10,000 berth? Mr. Tawney, former
congressman from the" First congres
sional district, as a member of the in
ternational boundaries' commission,
will be one of the first to go under
the Democratic administration, poli
ticians say.
Congressman C. R. Davis who was
in St. Paul yesterday believes "that
the commission will be abolished at
the next session and any way, after
the administration becomes Demo
cratic. According to Congressman
Davis, the members are not appoint
ed for any specific term.
The position is one of the best
plums on the Federal pay roll and
there dre a. number of Democrats
who will regret to see the adminis
tration economize to the extent of
abolishing the office.
"There is absolutely no need for
the commission," said Congressman
Davis. "There really is more need
of a commission to investigate and
adjust differences -between states."-^
