. CHOIGE MEMBER SOME CABINET MEN NOT THOSE HARDING WISHED TO NAME, ACCORDING TO RUMOR. Secretary Hughes to Hav: Vlfldilly Free Hand in International Matters —Denby and Weeks Must Rely on| & Officers for Advice. By EDWARD B. CLARK. Washington.—One = adminisiration has moved out and another has moved in. ,One represents history made and the other-history-to be made. It will take the adjustment of time and per- spective to give to the Wilson admin- istration its proper place in the annals of the country, Speaking among themselves, Wash- ington officials, senators, representa- tives and others, say that President \ he would have chosen if he felt that he could’lg entirely a law unto him- self in the choosing. 1t probably would be invidious to name the men whose places it is said Mr. Harding pied by others, and so it is better per- haps to “let it go at that.” It does not follow, men in Washing- ton say, because the cabinet in its composition does not In every instance represent: the President’s initial ap- pointment wishes, that it is not com- posed of -as strong men as otherwise would haye béen the case. The fact that is djvelt upon simply is that Mr/ Harding,¥ it is 'sdid, -desired to ask three men into his official family who ultimately were not invited to enter. ‘It is altogether too early to tell what Mr.. Hughes intends to do along the lines of foreign relations. As the country generally knows, the new sec- retary of state before he accepted the proffer of the oflice made it plain that a free hand in directing the foreign policy of the country. Of course Mr. Harding and Mr. Hughes found out quickly that in a general way their views on the greater international matters were alike. leave the new secretary of state un- hampered, it is said, was freely made. | Denby. and Weeks Really Civilians, In the Navy department Edwin Denby enters upon his post of duty with the unquestionable good will of the navy offic for Denby under- !

In the Army and Navy departments of the government the secretaries may believe themselves to be the directors- in-chief, but they never are so in truth. For the first time in a long while there are a secretary of war and a secretary of the navy who have been members of the armed forces, both of them having served as sailor- men. Nelther of the secretaries, how- ever, was long enough in the service thoroughly to become a part of it in being and endeavor. So to all intents and purposes Secretary Weeks and Secretary Denby are landsmen and civilians, and they, like former secre- taries, must turn to a service man for advice and guidance. It readily can.be seen why a civil- ian secretary of war or secretary of the navy cannot act as independently of influence as can an attorney gen- eral or a secretary of the treasury, or as some of the other secretaries for that matter. The attorney general always is a lawyer, and he can pass on cases as a lawyer and he does not have to" sk his” Subordinate ‘lawyers in the department whether this is good la'g or that is good law.

In the War und Navy departments | the civillan secretaries are absolutely dependent upon the officers of the services for views on fleet and army necessities, and also for knowledge of the capabilities of this officer or that officer who i’ suggested for promo- | tion.. In-one of these latter cases, Towever, it is’ said ‘that It is better to have a clvilian secretary than a serv- ice secretary.

A great deal of interest centers to-| day in just what Herbert Hoover in- tends to do fn the Department of Com- merce. Some one, more or less “mean- minded” perhaps, has said recently that the only time the Department of Commerce has msade itself at all prom- inent before the people was when the Eastland overturned in the Chicago river and something like a thousand persons lost their lives. At that time there was a public controversy be-| tween the officials of the Department of Commerce on the one hand and the | officinls’ of other branches of the gov. ernment on the other, and the whole afiair was ventilated In the press of | the country. Mr. Hoover's plan for enlarging the | field of his department has not yet been madq public, Paraffin Treatment for Burns.
