CABINET CHANGES DUE T BE FEW New Secretary of War Held Likely, but Other Shifts Are Doubted. BY J. RUSSELL YOUNG. There will be few, if any, new faces | In President Roosevelt’s cabinet when he starts his second term next month, White House sources stated today. Since the President’s return his South American trip, there have| been increasing indications that earl- jer speculative stories predicting nu-| merous changes were groundless. As for Mr. Roosevelt's secretariat, | Indications are both Secretaries Mc- Intyre and Early have no intention of seeking employment in other fields at this time. Actually, the President has not dropped the slightest hint to any member of his cabinet that he would | like some one else in his or her place. Nor has he received any word from any one in the cabinet concerning re- tirement Of course, it is likely a new Secre- tary of War will be appointed. This is not exactly news. inasmuch as the President made it plain at the time he promoted Harry H. Woodring from Assistant Secretary to head of the War Department after Secretary Dern died, that the appointment was more or less temporary. Woodring Appointment. Tt was explained at the time that no from | one can serve as acting cabinet officer | for a period greater than 30 days, and for that reason the President, instead of making Woodring the acting head of the department, gave him the actual appointment as Secr There have been some reportls that | QGov.

State, would be selected as Secretary of War with the beginning of the President's second administration. However, there is no authority for this, in the opinion of White House attaches. The feeling is that, aside from a new ‘War Secretary, the only other change in the President’s official family might | be in the Secretary of Labor. It is understood that Miss Frances Perkins, the first woman ever 1o’ serve in a cabinet position, is anxious to retire to accept the presidency of & woman's educational institution. President’s Wishes Unknown. In discussing this subject today. those who are in a position to know gald they had never heard the Presi- dent give any intimation that he wa eontemplating making any changes in his official family. He wa: presented as being one of those executives who was loath to make changes. There is & possibility, too, that James A. Farley, who was given a leave of absense as Postmaster General to de- | vote all his attention to his duties as chairman of the Demoeratic: National Commitiee, might prefer to step out of official life and go into some more lu= crative occupation. Farley has inti- mated as rauch, but has never said he was actually contemplating it. On the other hand, it is known that Mr. Roosevelt, aside from his personal appreciation of Farley’s ability as:an administrator, is particularly fond of him and would like to have him remain in the cabinet. Farley was closeted | for a half hour or more with. the President today, and it was intimated | that the subject of Farley's future was touched on. | The future of Gov. McNutt became | | a live topic after he paid a call at the | White House yesterday for & prlvnw\ conference with the President. ‘The name of the Governor has figured x in speculation also as the Philippine | high commissioner. It also has been | suggested that he would succeed Sena- tor Minton, Democrat, of Indiana in Congress should the latter accept ap- pointment to the United States Cir- cuit Court of Appeals in Chicago. | To a shower of questions from | White House correspondents, McNutt replied, “No comment on my political | future.” “I shall be busy being Governor until January 11 and then I'll be free,” he said. FARMERS ADVISED Dr. Henry G. Knight, chief of the Bureau of Chemistry and Soils, told | farmers today how to get cheaper fertilizers. He said they could save $7,500,000 each year by forcing manufacturers to sponding month eliminate filler from their products. Additional savings, particularly in transportation costs, he added, could mixtures. be made by buying double-strength | I THE EVENING STAR MAILING TIME EXTENDED Extension of the deadline for Christ- mas mailing to Hawaii was announced teday by C.
