They think alike, with minds tutored in , the same schools and same soclety. That, however, is mosuy water under the bridge. The point is, can Secretary Hull reorganize his de- partment to meet the great global jobs ahead? Can he absorb enough of those new agéncfes and the better talents that they have brought out to bring the reins of our world af- fairs once more back into the State Department? Some steps already have been taken, but it can’t be called a trend yet. Some of the best minds in foreign affairs in Congress are posi-, tive that a lot of deadwood will have to be ripped out and new timbers put in, ¥ the State Department is to, stand up under the strain of world affairs now being piled upon us.
