Some of these were made today, many others will be announced during the n few months while still others will be: made as the terms of present Demo- cratic olfice hold expire. é The first fruits from the shaking of the official “plum” tree were | inet officers whose ‘salaries are ‘$12,- 000 a year each. Others to come in- clude ne a dozen ambassadors whose minister secretar and marshalls," omg! collectors, members of various government masters by the thousands. In contrast to ‘the huge patronage roll of Mr. Harding are the appoint- ve requisites of Vice-President Cool- idge. whose imrediate’ appointments comprise only his secretary, clerk, page boy and a private telegraph operator. ‘Their salaries total $7,700 a year. The Vice-President himsett receives -$12,000. As is the usual custom, ambassa-; dors aid ministers now serving are are expected to present their resigua- tions to President Harding immedia- tely so he may have a free hand in creating his own diplomatic corps. There are 44 ambassadors and minist- ers but some of\these who have risen from the ranks in the diplomatic ser- vice.may be retained and practically all of those now in service will con- tinue in office until their successors are named and quality. Among ambassadorships regarded as certam to be filled by Mr. Harding are those to Great Britain, France, Chile, Argentine, and Peru. new ministers also a and, when full relati re-es- tablihsed with Germa Austria, Mexico, Turkey and Bulgaria appoint- ments also will be made to those countries. : Among ministers now holding. offce who have come up from the ranks: in diplomatic, service are William’ Phillps at. the Hauge; Hugh Gibson, at Warsaw; Richard Crane, at Prague Joseph G.

Postmasters comprise the bulk of Presidential patronage. “There are nearly 50,000 postmasterships remain ing in the Presidential class, although President. Wilson placed many in the civil service. All have four year terms and it is’ estimated that President Harding will appoint something like 15,000 during the next years as the Republican majority in co ate r fused confirmation to Sev6raf thou and postmasters as well as other offi- cials, including members of the Ship- ping, Board, duritig the laSt session of Congress.

Among these are, chiefs. of War Department bureaus, including the Chief of Stat and eleven majors and twenty two brigadier generals. Sclections of gen- eral officers made by President Wilson were held up in the senate this year in the republican blockade o Wilson’s nominations. and these : pointments now will be made by Mr. Harding. are government, the Department of Just- ice leads in patronage, with a rel of about $130,000, including a Solicitor General at $10,000, one assistant to the Attorney-General at $9,000, seven ' other assistants at $7,500 and solici-: tors for the other departments.
