HOOVER TO PICK VETERANS IN U. S. POSTS FOR CABINET

NO ‘SURPRISES' ARE EXPECTED BY OBSERVERS Each Man Chosen Must Have First - Hand Acquaintance With His Job. BAN PUT ON .WOMEN Mellon Appears Certain to Keep Job; Donovan Has Inside Track. BY THOMAS L. STOKES United Press Staff Correspondent WASHINGTON, Jan, 19.—Herbert Hoover’s cabinet will be one of •‘insiders,” that is, men either veterans in Government service or of direct, first-hand acquaintance with the particular problems of the departments to which they are appointed. Most of the cabinet will be men long in the public eye as officials, It is learned from a survey of those being considered for the various posts. There will be no “surprises” in the sense that those appointed will be unknown. It will be a cabinet of experienced blood. There will be no women in Hoover’s cabinet, despite the contribution women made to Hoover’s election. The ban on women grows from Hoover’s intention to select cabinet members largely from those experienced in federal Government matters, and this leaves a rather thin field of selection. It is not a question of ability, but of proven ability in the particular work which must be done. The President-elect has several reasons for the test of tried Government service. Wants Practical Cabinet In the first place, he wants a practical cabinet. This desire emanates from his business experience and his own view that the United States government, is the biggest business in the world, and must be conducted as a business. While the cabinet constitutes a sort of board of directors, that board must operate through congress. Hoover, therefore, wants men in his cabinet who have had experience in dealing with congress. Excellent legislative ideas of government officials frequently have been lost in congress because of the way they were presented. If possible. Hoover wants to avoid mistakes, often magnified into very unfortunate incidents, which in the past have been made by men of good intention but lacking in ability to see the natural reaction. Group of Lieutenants Hoover's view of a cabinet is a group of lieutenants, not a supercouncil. He intends to be the big boss, himself. He will seek information! Therefore, will want men well-informed. Hoover will have no “kitchen cabinet," that little group of advisers behind the scenes in many administrations. The cabinet will act in that capacity for him, though it will be much more than that. Recent developments have proven that Secretary of the Treasury Mellon will retained for a time and it virtually is certain the youthful assistant attorney-general, William J. Donovan, will get a cabinet post. Both are tried in the government service. So is Ogden L. Mills, undersecretary of the treasury, who will remain in the department with the general expectation he will be elevated when Mellon retires. Mills was regarded as an authority on finance, tariff and taxation as a member of congress, and led the fight there for the Mellon tax plans. Senator Charles McNary of Oregon, veteran legislator and chairman of the senate agriculture committee, is receiving serious consideration for secretary of agriculture, it is learned. McNary has directed battles for agricultural legislation from the inside and knows the temper of congress. Hunts Secretary of State Louis S. Cates of Salt Lake City, well-known mining engineer and friend of Hoover, is receiving wide indorsement in the west for secretary of interior. He has come into contact with problems with which that department deals. Likewise. Hoover undoubcdly will appoint a man closfte to organized labor. If not from its ranks, for secretary of labor. Several such are under consideration. In picking a secretary of state he will not draw upon outsiders able though they be. but will select some one who has been connected intimately with foreign affairs. It is the general view he will be his own secretary of state, and will select a man who can administer the department capably. Attack on Mellon BY RAYMOND CLAPPER Unit*** prei S*iff rorrespo*'' , cat WASHINGTON, Jan. 19.—The fiyst real attack on Herbert Hoover’s incoming administration is being built around Andrew Mellon, secretary of rhe treasury, who is expected to be reappointed to the new cabinet. Democrats in congress are acting on this expectation and almost daily they are now speaking in one house or the other in criticise of Me’lon. This attack is based upon two points, Mellon’s alleged ineffective enforcement of prohibition and his alleged overgenerosity in granting large tax refunds to corporr.tions. The Democratic speakers themselves do not hook up their attacks with Mellon's expected reappointment, but everywhere in Washington this is assumed to be the real object of the opposition. There has .been no particular tie binding Hoover and Mellon in the past Hoover was somewhat resentful when Mellon fai’ed to assist him in the hard fight for the presidential nomination.

Land Blaze Spells Ocean Liner’s Dooni

In drydock at Marseilles. France, safe from the perils of the ocean lanes, the liner “Paul Lecat” succumbed to a fierce blaze that originated on land. Thjs striking picture shows the fire as it gained headway, completely destroying the liner which was the pride of the passenger service between Europe and the Far East. The ship had been in drydock for overhauling and was nearly ready to put to sea again when the fire broke out.

CREAM OF UNIVERSE

Man Chief Pebble, Says Savant

By United Press LONDON, Jan. 18.—Belief that the earth is not the only Inhabited planet in the universe, but that the earth's inhabitants make up the supreme race, is expressed by Professor A. S. Eddington, distinguished astronomer, in his new book, “The Nature of the Physical World.” “x do not think,” the professor wrote, “that the whole purpose of the creation has been staked on the one planet where we live; and in the long run we can not deem ourselves the only race that has been or will be gifted with the mystery of consciousness. “But I feel inclined to claim that at the present time our race is supreme.; and not one of the profusion of stars in their myriad clusters looks down on scenes comparable to those which are passing beneath the rays oi the sun.”

SUNDAY SCHOOL LESSON The International Uniform Sunday School Lesson for Jaa. 20. Christ the World’s Redeemer. Luke 15:3-7; Rom. 5:6-10. BY WILLIAM E. GILROY, D. D. Editor of The Congregationalist THE two great facts which have been studied in the two preceding lessons —the Fatherhood of God, and the fact of sin—find their meeting place in Jesus Christ who came to incarnate the love of God in human life and to be the Savior of the world. Jesus came to save sinners. The salvation that he had for the world was not a salvation to be attained by the elimination of the unfit and by disregarding human sin. He did not come to establish a remote and exclusive kingdom for the saints. His purpose was to transform the sinful characters and lives of men through the power of God's grace and make them fit for the Kingdom of God. This elemental purpose in the mission of Jesus is brought out strongly in the three parables in the fifteenth chapter of Luke, one of which constitutes the first portion of our lesson. The parable of the lost piece of silver is very similar to this of the lost sheep; and the third parable, the story of the prodigal son, is a longer illustration of the truth of the first two. This parable of the lost sheep has been made very vivid to the modern world through the popularity of Sankey’s song, “The Ninety and Nine.” It was in many ways the deepest symbol of the Moody and Sankey revival movement of the last century; and, despite” the rather hard theology underlying that movement, it gave to that great epoch of revivalism its essential character as a movement of great yearning for the souls of men and the desire to see the power of God manifested in the transformation of sinners into saints. When the church departs from that great elemental purpose it fails to realize the very thing for which Jesus came to earth and the most important commission that he has entrusted to the church. The efficacy of the power of Christ to redeem men through rei nentance has been amply shown ! wherever the gospel is preached in sincerity and truth. Modern science tends to be skeptical of the possibility of fundamental change m character. But the gospel is still vindicated in its results. Paul understood thoroughly well j the purpose of Christ. He laid great i stress upon the power of the gospel lin his own day to transform the | lives of those who had been immoral i and disregardful of the claims of ! God and of man. He emphasizes | the fact' that Christ died for the [ungodly, that it is the unworthy who may claim a share in his love. This work of Christ, he says, is a i great work of reconciling men to God. It is somewhat unfortunate that a misinterpretation of Paul's par- ! tial statement of the gospel truth ■has led to a great deal of false [emphasis at this point. The work : of Christ has been very commonly

Horrors! Here’s Real Lowdown on Wild Night Revels in Hollywood

HOLLYWOOD. Cal.. Jan. 19.—Sh-sh-h-h! Here’s the lowdown on that wild night life of Hollywood! An investigator sent out by Photoplay Magazine to find what the dazzling darlings and heroic hemen of the film lots actually do with their evenings has brought back a startling bundle of facts. For Instance: That scandalous racket coming from Gloria Swanson's house is evoked by nothing less wicked than a veritable orgy of ping-pong. Gloria. Irene Rich. Richard Dix. Gregory La Cava and a hundred others are revealed as hopeless ping-pong addicts, staying up, so the neighbors say. sometimes until midnight bounding that insidious celluloid ball. A riotous evening at the Doug Fairbanks' is more likely than not to bring forth an impromptu speech-making game. Thus. Doug may point to Charlie Chaplin, another addict to this fonn of dissipation, and cry, “Window shades!” Then it is

represented as a reconciling of God to men. Here ir our lesson is the deeper truth which Paul also expresses elsewhere, that "God was in Christ reconciling the world unto Himself.” It is through grace, Paul says, that we are saved, and this grace is not of ourselves, it is the gift of God. Christ is the revelation of the Father's love. Men will always differ concerning their ideas of the atonement. In fact, the deepest mratery of all life is the mystery of me suffering of the innocent with and for the guilty. But this great fact should never be forgotten, no matter what one may read into the great fact of vicarious suffering—that is, suffering for others—namely, that in •his death as much as in his life Jesus revealed the eternal heart of God—the heart of yearning and love to reconcile his lost and wandering children unto himself. A great theologian has said. “What Christ is on the cross, God eternally is.” , Our lesson leads us into the holy of holies, into the great mysteries of divine purpose and its method of provision for human salvation. We can not understand the depth of these mysteries, and it is well that in that realm men should be free from dogmatism; but we can understand the power of Christ in its practical manifestations. The facts of the gospel are as definite and plain as the sources of the gospel are mysterious and deep. It is like the power of electricity which we see now in the marvel of the radio. Even the n\ost eminent scientists can not explain that power, and it is doubtful whether they have more than touched the depths of mystery connected with it. But through appreciating the power and applying it they have brought to us wonderful results, so that we may hear even from afar the voices of our fellow men and the symphonies of great choirs and orchestras. It is precisely in this way that though we do not understand the power of the gospel it brings heaven near to man and reproduces in human life the expression of the divine.

up to Charlie to discourse for three minutes on window shades, their habits, home life and eccentricities, or be counted out of the contest. A party at Vera Reynolds' discloses a wild game of charades. Jacqueline Logan goes in for fortune telling with Chinese Chi Chi sticks. The Gleasons, Lucille, James and their group, go in strongly for an innocent enough game that bears the fearsome aame of “Murder.” So play the merry villagers of Hollywood. These are the horrible revelations the Photoplay investigator brings out to show that, in spite of the frequent scandals that go sizzling over the newspaper wires, the film colony as a whole leads a life about as riotous as do the neighborly folks of Grand Rapids. Norfolk or Little Rock. Naturally, there is a wild element—there's one in every town. Hollywood’s is perhaps larger because young people are in the majority and money among the elect is plentiful.

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

SEEK REFERENDUM Move for Constitutional Convention Begun. Dissatisfaction with Indiana’s seventy-eight-year-old constitution will prompt another effort in the current general assembly for a referendum on the question of a constitutional convention. A bill authorizing the referendum is being prepared with the backing of representatives of farm organizations, organized labor, women’s clubs and educational and temperance forces. In 1914 a proposal for rewriting the document was turned down by the electorate. In 1927 the legislature enacted a law callig for a constitutional convention but the state supreme court held it unconstitutional because it did not provide for a referendum. Two years ago Senator John S. Alldredge, of Anderson, introduced a bill calling for the referendum or constitutional revision but the bill died awaiting third reading in the senate.

State to Regulate Flying By Times Special SACRAMENTO. Jan. 19.—California is moving to regulate its air routes as it does its highways, and its airplanes as it does its other common carriers. The present legislature doubtless will pass two measures. One will authorize the state department of motor vehicles to establish standard air routes, standardized service and airports, enforce safety rules, and otherwise regulate air traffic. Another will clarify the law so that the state railroad commission may set passenger and other rates' by declaring airplanes carrying passengers and freight common carriers. California has 700 licensed private, commercial, and transport planes. The Boeing Air Transport will on April 1 add fifteen new trimotor twelve-passenger de luxe planes for its California-Chicago service. In 1928 a total of 15.000 passengers “took to the air” in California, not counting some 10,000 more who flew' from Los Angeles to Catalina island on the “flying boat.” California has 2.500 miles of regular airplane routes. Airmen Going East A Fairchild cabin monoplane, piloted by M. G. Beard, which landed at Capitol Airport several days ago en route to Farmingdale, L. 1., was to taka off today for the the east. Passengers included L. Dooley. D. E. Brexton and N. G. Souther of the Fairchild company. POW wows" TO PRISON Incantations to ‘Produce’ Gold Costs Woman SB,OOO. B,v United Press MANILA.

Bit United Press WASHINKTON, Jan. 18.—The problem of saving wayward salmon who stray from their home river waters to die in irrigation ditches and canals is perplexing the .bureau of fisheries. Even congress became so alarmed last session over the plight of these nomadic aquarians that it appropriated money for research by the bureau of fisheries to devise screens, stops, and diverters to keep the salmon in their home waters. A highly trained engineer, the bureau announces, has been employed studying thirty devices to be placed at entrances of canals and ditches.

BILL PROPOSES EXTENDING CITY BOARCSJOWER Three Measures Introduced in House of Interest to Indianapolis. Three bills of particular interest to Indianapolis were introduced Friday by Marion county representatives. Extension of power of the board of works in cities of the first class, meaning Indianapolis, so that the ooard may determine the kind of pavement to be used in widening or adding to a roadway and determine also the kind of resurfacing material is advocated in the bill sponsored by Representative John L. Benedict. Broadening of the definition of terms in the existing laws govering drains and sewers to enable municipalities to construct and maintain sewage disposal plants as integral parts of their sewer system is proposed oin the measure by Representative Frank J. Noll. Suspends Rules to Pass Bill Representative Lloyd D. Claycombe of Indianapolis was joined by Mrs. Bertha Zimmerman of Tqyre Haute in presenting a bill providing for an amendment to the zoning law providing for an appeal to appellate court from decision of the circuit or superior courts reversing orders of the board of zoning appeals and providing that the provisions of zoning ordinances may be enforced by injunction proceedings. The house suspended the rules and passed a bill providing that members of the general assembly may have :ases in which they appear postponed by judges upon filing of a petition showing that they must attend the general assembly. The bill is designed at this time specifically to aid Representative Fabius Gwin, attorney of Shoals who is retained in a case which has been reversed by the higher courts and must be retried. The suit has been set for hearing next week. The measure was Introduced by Representative Thad S. Adams of Danville: Delph L. McKesson of Plymouth; George W. Freeman of Kokomo, and J. Glenn Harris of Gary. A message from Governor Harry G. Leslie was read announcing that he had signed house bill No. 1, providing for a $150,000 appropriation to meet the salaries and expenses of the seventy-sixth session. Invitation to Coolidge The house received and passed the senate resolution inviting President Calvin Coolidge to attend the sesqui-centennial celebration Feb. 25 of the capture of Ft. Sackville at Vincennes by George Rogers Clark. Changing of the Indiana tiifte from central to eastern standard time is advocated by Representative Forrest Knepper of Etna Green in a bill introduced. Knepper declared the measure was emergency inasmuch as the proposed change In time is to take place at midnight of March 31, 1929. The house adjourned until 2 o’clock Monday afternoon. NEW JOB FOR BARKEEP By United Press LONDON, Jan. 18.—A new word has been added to the dictionary, and anew wav of earning a living has been found. It is “pro-shaker.” A “pro-shaker” is one who goes to houses and mixes dozens of differnt cocktails at a moment’s notice. As yet there Is very little competition in this new profession, for although the pay is good, the work is hard and difficult to learn. In fact, “pro-shakers” are very scarce. “An Englishman,” declares a popular London hostess, “who can shake every known American. Continental and English cocktail, has yet to be found. He would earn enormous fees.”
