Hughes soon wiU ask to be relieved in order t0 returI tolaw practice, umciai conrirmauon or these re ports is lacking but some of the Secretary's closest friends appeared not to be surprised. Mr. Hughes, it is understood, has told associates that he feels it necessary shortly to re quest relief from his present official duti s. He has not, however, discussed his plans with President Coolidge. The President is certain to urge the.

Secretary of State to remain at his post, but according to the word of those in most intimate contact with Mr. Hughes, he seems to have made up his mind definitely. Earning Capacity Large. Mr. Hughes had but four years be tween the time he left the United Statea Supreme Court bench to ac cept the Republican Presidential nomi nation ln 1916, and his summons to the Cabinet by President Harding after the 1920 election While his earning capacity during that time was known to be exception ally large, he devoted much time to the investigation of America's war time aviation contracts, and did not have an opportunity to capitalize his private practice as he might other wise have done.

Another factor in the situation ap? pears to be the chairmanship of the Senate Foreign Relations- Committee. The certainty that Senator -William E. Borah, of Idaho, will succeed the late Senator Henry Cabot Lodge as chairman of that body, it is pointed out, will not prove any Incentive to Mr. Hughes to remain at the head of America's foreign affairs. Differ On Policies.

Hughes and Borah have differed openly on some of the most vital foreign policies. Mr. Borah is an avowed advocate of recognition of Soviet Russia, while Mr. Hughes has opposed such a policy. Mr.

Borah, like Senator Lodge, is opposed to American participation in the World Court on the basis recommended by Presidents Harding and Coolidge and supported, of course, by Mr. Hughes. SO Questioned In Beer Gang Killing Trisrsrer Fingers Crooked As Notorious Leader's Slay er Is Sought. rhtram. Nnv.
