the beginning ef Mr. Selden sticker's term four years ago he served only part time, bat this practice was found to be Impracticable and "Warren T.

The Governor said he expected the pardon board to determine whether It could gst along with fewer meetings, perhaps one every three months, and with only a clerk at the office at all times.

Mr. Seldenstlcker said the old system was not satisfactory because people are continually coming to the office to investigate conditions of prisoners and this, he said, made necessary the presence of some one besides a clerk. iBstltatlen Overcrowded. The Governor pointed out that all the penal institutions are overcrowded and referred specifically to the fact, he said, that more than 700 prisoners have been sent to the State Keformatory during the year.

Mr. Seidensticker has not announced what he will do.

NO OFFICIAL COGNIZANCE Cool Id ge Withholds Com meat osi Jaaserand's Debt Saargeatlonw I By the Associated Press WASHINGTON. December 23. President Coolidge feels that the American government can take no notice of French Ambassador Jus serand's suggestion, voiced In a publlo address here yesterday, for a moratorium in payment of the French war debt to the United States. To have force, such a proposal must be laid before the American debt funding commission, and thua far no definite proposal of any sort has been communicated to that body by the French. No high officials, therefore, will comment on the ambassador's suggestion.

Mr. Coolidge himself feels that comment would be out of place aince the ambassador chose to present his suggestion to the country through a public address, when it was well known that the only way In which such a suggestion could be considered is through the channel provided by the congress in creating the debt commission.
