MANNING (Washington Bureau of the N. B. Herald.) Washington, D. C., Nov. 27—Ru- | mors of pending changes in Presi- dent Coolidge’s cabinet are afloat | in Washington. Whether these re-| ports are based on some inside | knowledge on the part of those re- sponsible for their circulation or put out merely for some ulterior | molive cannot be stated. But they are insistent and persistent, never- | theless, and have caused no end of | speculation and comment at the| national capital. In all the gossip heard here with | respect to probable changes in the | membership of the president’s offi- | cial family, the name of Senator James W. Wadsworth, jr. of New York, defeated for reclection by Justice Wagner, figures most promi- | | term does not expire until March | 4, mext, his name already has been connected with two important cabi- net portfolios. First and foremost, the report | | has gained strength in officlal cir- | | cles that Secretary of State Kcllogg. | does not desire to continue as | premier of the administration much | longer. It is said that he has not | handled the difficult Mexican situa- tion to the liking of his chief and that this has been the real reason | for the numerous visits to Wash- | ington of Ambassador Sheffield. Therefore, reports state, if the; {break between the president and | his secretary of state should as- sume serious proportions, friends of Senator Wadsworth declare that he would be placed at the head of hh» state department. They point out that the New York senator married a daughter of John Hay, | former ambassador to the Court of | 7|st. Jamos, and secretary of state, |and one who knew foreign prob- lems and situations just about as well as any man who ever occu- | pied those exalted positions under GEORGE LEWITT George LeWitt in his comparative- ly short time as a member of u\n‘ school board has moved to the front | as one of its most able members. | He is chairman of of the school accommodations and health and sanitation committees of the board.

He attended Hartford schools in the | years that followed and was gradu- | High | ated from Hartford Public school. He was also graduated from New York University and Yale Uni- versity. He practiced law a short | time. He was at one time owner | of the Lyceum theater in this gity and the Liberty theater in Hirt- | ford. He was extensively interested | in realty development and is famil- | iar with every form of building con- struction. His ability along this line won him a place on the school ac- commodations committee. He associated with Attorney P. Donough and William J.

Wadsworth Qualified Senator Wadsworth, it is argued, possessed of wealth, social posi- standing in this country, which eminently fit him to preside over the duties of the state department. He is thor- oughly American, is aggressive and has kept in touch with our forelgn | problems in a manner that has ap- pealed to the president.
