NEW TASKS PRESS . PRESIDENT HOOVER Enforcement Perscnnel and Reorganization Matters Claim Attention. By the Associated Press. Herbert Hoover is finding that there (g is always plenty to occupy a President’s time. Although he crowded into the first month of his administration a maxi- mum of activity, settled upon significant | courses of governmental policy and came to definite decisions of numerous gubnc questions, new tasks press upon im daily to supplement important projects that he brought with him to |je the White House and has yet to initiate. The extraordinary session of Congress * s less than two weeks away and in that time he must finish revising the mes- sage, which will set forth his views on farm relief and tariff changes, the two subjects which the session was called to consider. The next few weeks also are expected to see the President decide definitly on th personnel of the commis- sion which he will appoint to study law enforcement and court conditions. Moreover, reorganization of the gov- ernment, including his proposal that many functions of prohibition enforce- ment now administered by the Treasury be transferred to the Department of Justice, has still to be begun. And an- nouncements are expected in the near future on diplomatic appointments and the filling of several posts of high responsibility in the foreign service. Carefully Revising Message. Mr. Hoover has completed the first draft is message to Congress and is carefully . ‘The President is not hurry . In fact, it has been announced that it will not be|S complete in printed form for distribu- tion to the newspapers until just a day or so before Congress meets. As with the message to Congress, the | Chief Executive is taking his own time | in selecting the personnel of the law | enforcement commission. He has es-| tablished very definite standards of | qualification and has been described as literally scouring the country in his| search for ~.en who meet the specifica- tions. The members of the commission must | be men of outstanding ability and ex- perience in the legal and judicial feld, Mr. Hoover has determined; and since the study will include a thorough in- vestigation of the enforcement of the |} pmhlbimn laws, he has decided that |}t “professional” wets or drys will be nppolnted Appointment of Newton. To assist him in affecting a reorgani- gation of governmental activities, Mr. Hoover has appointed Representative Walter Newton of Minnesota as his ad- ministrative assistant, and he will co- operate with the heads of the depart- ments in carrying this project forward. The problem of transferring prohibition enforcement duties from the Treasury to the Justice Department is involved by the question whether this can be ac- complished by executive order or re- quires legislation. On this point Mr. Hoover is expected to request an opin- ion from Attorney General Mitchell be- fore taking action. Since Secretary Stimson took up his duties at the State Department, Mr. Hoover has held frequent conferences with him, presumably dealing with the subject of appointments to diplomatic posts. In common with all presidential appointees, the members of the diplo- matic corps tendered their resignations *at the close of the Coolidge administra- tion, but until the arrival of Secretary Stimson, nearly a month later, Mr. Hoover postponed consideration of any changes in the foreign service. ‘The desire of Ambassador Houghton at London to withdraw and the death of Ambassador Herrick at Paris have left two of the most important posts to be filled. Changes are in prospect, too, in South America, where Mr. Hoover is anxious to build the diplomatic serv- ice up to the highest possible point of efficiency. Airplane Circus Thrills.
