POTS AND PANS PARIS, August 13.—The latest war reminiscenses to be printed are those of the “chef” who presided over the destinics of the French general staff during the battle of the Marne and who prepared the simple but abundapt menu that Marshal, then Gen., Joffre sat down to at very irregular hours. If the chef's culinary accom- plishments were not superior to his literary talent, then one pi 'S poor Gen.

He must have the patience of Job, the endur- ance of a Missouri mule, a sharp-set mind, and be as hard to handle as a catfish. He must know something of almost everything, be apt in the as- saying of gold bricks, and be able to resist argument and entreaty to the end that justice shall be done. His reward will be mostly paid in trouble. Members of the congressional com- mittee on reorganization believe that the time has come when an execu- tive assistant to the President must be provided for by law. The need has long been recognized. When Wil- lfam Howard Taft was President he felt the need of relief from some of the minor yet exacting dutles of his position. But the idea got off on the wrong foot then. Washington corre- spondents called the President's new aide the assistant president, and the new aide helped matters along by referring to himself in the same way So his foot slipped. Early Action Expeeted. But an executive assistant will in all probability be provided for in the bill, which will shortly be intro- duced, providing for governmental reorganization in order to do away with the unnecessary and tedious du- plication of duty now found in the government's service. In an ideally arranged plan of administration the President would be free to devote himself to the larger aspects of his office. In ‘fact, each President is forced to do so. But in order to find some time in which he may think af the greater things, he is forced to leave the lesser affairs run them- selves. There are, for example, thirty-three so-called independent executive establishments. Theoretically, their heads report only to the President. No one else keeps watch and ward on them. In effect. they are as free of control as is Halley's comet. No man, whose duty it is to keep in close and prayerful touch with such widely diverse - situations as those presented by The treaty of peace with Germany, The disarmament conference. | Money raising and spending for and by the government, 1 Foreign and domestic commerce, International relationships, to name but a few of the topics con- stantly pressed upon presidential at- tention, has any time left in which to give real consideration to his thirty-three executive departments. ‘Wide Diversity of Interests. There is no space.in which to give the entire list, but an idea olgt‘he diversity of interests represented in the thirty-three may be had by nam- ing a few of them. These, chosen at random, ar 2 The Smithsonian. Civil Service Commission. Interstate Commerce Commission. o Board of Mediation and Concilia- on. The Shipping Board. . The Alien Property Custodian. War Finance Corporation. Railroad Administration. Council of National Defense. If he had nothing else on his hands except the major topics referred to briefly above he might be able to average ten minutes a day for each of the thirty-three. But he has al- most everything else on his hands. He must make speeches every now and then, and a presidential speech must be the true expression of presi- dentidl thought. He has employes at the State Department who know Just how to write letters of condo- lence to bereaved kings and formal messages to countries that are so new the paint has not dried om them. But his speeches must be his own. Entertaining and Handshaking. Then he must go visiting now and then, as when Mr. Harding went to Nelson P.

Just as the meal was about to be completed a British automobile came up to headquarters with a basket of champagne as a token of congratulation to the French staff. It came from a British unit “in liason.” The chef was just getting ready to serve it when he noted that the bottles bore a German mark and he informed the officer of the fact. That worthy forbade him to serve the champagne to the staff and ordered him to throw the bottles away. “We did,” says the chef, “but only the next morn- ing, and they were empty. day than does Mr. Harding. These are all things that must be done, even if he were not the sort of man who likes doing them. Many “Little Presidents.” The net consequence with each President has been that the direc- tion of each of the thirty-three es- tablishments has been left to their heads. No doubt each President has kept in touch With the major mat- ters as they arise in each establish- ment, but the unstretchable limita- tions of time have forced him in most cases to depend upon the report made by the heads. Another consequence has been, as stated by one member of the congressional committee on re- organization: “We have had thirty-three little Presidents, each supreme in his sphere.” To end such an anomalous situa- tion it is the plan of the reorganiza- tion committee—as will be disclosed when the bill is sent to the House— to provide for a new office to be known by some such _title as executive assistant to the President. An im- mense job will be provided for him. His duty will be to digest and brief each situation as it arises in each of the thirty-three independent estab- lishments and where necessary place the facts before the President for de- cision. In minor matters he will, of course, be authorized to make such decision himself. A man who has been wholly successful as the head of an insurance company or a bank or a railroad might conceivably fail in this position. No man of less intellectual consequence need be considered. Government Affairs Expanding. William Loeb was a good deal that sort of man. So was George Cortel- you. So was Joseph Tumulty. But each of the three was also private secretary and the duties of a private secretary to the President are about as_comprehensive and exacting and continuous as can well be heaped upon the shoulders of one man. The business of the government is con- tinually expanding, too. Not only does the United States spend about four times more money than it ever did before, but its entanglements and engagements are infinitely more com- plicated than they were in the com- paratively placid times of Roosevelt and McKinley and Taft. A logical deduction would be that the execu- tive assistant to the President may be given cabinet rank. Whoever he may be, he will be given a lot of other things, too. And he won't want to take any one of them home with him nights. —_— WILL BE C. U. CHANCELLOR Archbishop-Designate Curley Takes Office Automatically.

A public hearing before the board of Commissioners will be asked for by the Federation ef Citizens' Asocia- tions at which to urge repeal of the Borland law. This law assesses half the cost of street paving egainst abut- ting property owners. Citizens in all sections of the city have fought the legislation vari- ous times since it was cnacted, and last night a special committee of the federation met in the office of W. B. Westlake, president, to renew the fight. It was decided to ask the Commis- sioners for a hearing before going to Congress, in order to win the support of the city heads. if pos: le. The hear- ing probably will be sought within a week or ten days. Numerous arguments were presented by the committee members at the meeting last night to show that the law should be wiped off the statute book: i William McK Clayton, chairman of the committee, said advocates of the Borland law contended that it would be a good thing for the city usc Congress would make generous propriations for strects if it knew the property owners would bear part the cost. Last AT Mr. Clayton pointed out, the Comn sioners ask for about $800,000 worth of street i provements and received approxi- mately $140.000. The Borland law, he said, has resulted in many street improvements being put off from vear to year by property ow ers appealing to members of Congre not to order their streets paved.

There are receptions and dinners to be given. Some one is always at the presidential luncheon table, where the talk is always on serious topics. Almost every day when he is at the White House he meets a hand-shaking throng at 1 o'clock. Sometimes the throng as- says rather high’in essential democ- racy, for the other day a man in shirt sleeves and his lady in khaki pants were among the handshakers. The President likes it. This is one of the ways in which he keeps in touch with that short-sleeved middle west from which he sprang. But it does cut into his day. Some attention must be paid to his health, and so he plays a little gol and rides a little in his new automobile.
