Resignation

Garrard B. Winston, Under Secretary of the Treasury, able right-hand man of Secretary Mellon, announced his resignation last week. The reason, he said, is an urgent desire to return to his law practice in .Chicago. At 44, Mr. Winston is one of the oldest of the many young men whom Secretary Mellon had lifted into important positions in the Treasury Department. Suave, diplomatic, he was often seen about town in Washington and was able to accomplish important errands for his reticent chief in Continental capitals. His most distinguished achievement was helping Secretary Mellon arrange the debt-funding agreements.
