OPKINS KEY TO NEXT OBJECTIVE OF ROOSEVELT

Expected Promotion ‘Would ~ Serve Notice of Fight To Hold Gains.

By THOMAS L. STOKES Times Special Writer | ‘WASHINGTON, Dec. 21.—Prospective elevation off WPA Administrator Harry L. Hopkins to the| Cabinet as Secretary of Commerce, expected shortly, will serve notice of President Roosevelt's intention to stock his immediate councils with unsullied New Dealism preparatory to the 1940 battle for survival of his policies. I Other infusions of New Dealism ~ will occur subsequently in the top

This emphasis denotes continued adherence to fundamental New Deal objectives, and their staunch maintenance in the field where they will center in the remaining two years of the Roosevelt term; that is, in|

Mother, 69 Asks ‘Word’

From Son

A 69-year-old Indianapolis mother today appealed to her war veteran son, whom she has not seen for 14 years, to visit her at her home here. She. is Mrs. Alice Wilson, 135 :W. Norwood St. Unable to pay for an extensive search for him, she appealed to war veteran organizations, to help trace him. His name is Lafayette Wilson, and he was a first lieutenant .in the Third Foreign . Aviation Detachment, with 18 months’ service in France, she said. She said he is a good mechanic and was last heard from working in Texas oil fields under an unknown assumed name. el “It is now the time of year,” she wrote, “when we would appreciate at®least a word of cheer from our loved ones, especially . one. missing so long.”

retary of Commerce, as a gesture to

business. But he regards other con-

siderations as more| important than

such a gesture. Two Others Mentioned

- Aside from the WPA administrator, two other. staunch New Dealers have proved themselves to the President’s satisfaction.| One is Solicitor General Robert H. Jackson, who has been a party to important New Deal strategy; the other, Governor Frank Murphy of Michigan, who has served on the front line and who retires the first of the year. Both will play important parts in administering the New Deal in| the next two years. | Each has been mentioned as Attorney General to] succeed Homer Cummings, who will retire in January. One will get the job, the adds now being on the Solicitor General. Either is ready to|lead the attack along the monopoly front, which will be a major New Deal objective. If the Governor becomes attorney general, Mr. Jackson will remain solicitor general and these two, with Assistant Attorney General Thurman Arnold, who is in charge of the antitrust division, would form a hard-hitting triumvirate to carry forward the war on monopoly.

Governor Murphy will be given,

some other important assignment © if not made attorney general. | - Messrs. Hopkins, Jackson and Murphy have proved themselves effective exponents! of New Deal Philosophy, both in policy-making " and from the platform, and as 1940 approaches they will become | in‘Creasingly active as| participants and €xpounders. { Possible Successor

_ , Comparison of this type with the two men who are dropping from the Cabinet, Messrs. Cummings and Ropes, illustrates the new strategy. Both of the latter] are of the more conservative school, looking askance at some New Deal ventures, though they have gone jalong publicly— for’ both are politicians. | From the more ardent New Dealers who supplant them may come a successor to President Roosevelt in 1940, or at least a Democratic nominee. Mr. Hopkins is said now to be the President’s No. 1 choice, but Mr. Jackson also is well-favored in the Roosevelt eye. Governor Murphy lost his state in the last lelection, and he is a Catholic. Both of Bese factors might militate against

ay. | | “While Mr. Roosevelt is building up the New Deal circle about | him,

he also is planning to bolster up|

- the weakest sector in his Admin- ~ istration, from die political standpoint, which is WPA. Mr. Hopkins’ removal from that sector will divert some of the (criticism which has attached to administration of WPA. But another official there—Mr. Hopkins’ man Friday, Deputy Administrator Aubrey Williams—also has invited attacks by indiscreet speeches. | Consequently, Mr. Williams is not expected to be moved up to the Hopkins vacancy. It is understood he learned as much in a conference with the President yesterday. The Job is expected to go to a different type. Frank Walker, former NEC director and a close friend of President Roosevelt, has been men-

CHICAGO, Dec. 21 (U. Pp) nadotte E. Schmitt, . University Chicago history professor and PulitZer Prize winner, warned graduating students here that relations between the United States and Germany ‘are not only bad but give promise of getting worse.” Speaking at the university’s 194th convocation, Mr. Schmitt declared that American public opinion perhaps may ‘comprehend that isolation, which served us so well for more than a century .. . does not now exist in fact.” “It is only too. evident that naked military force is the: principal factor in international relations,” he said.

tioned. Some reports are that a military man may. get the job. In this connection, it may be significant that Col. P. C. Harrington, |’ chief engineer of WPA, conferred with the President yesterday after Mr. Williams had left the White House. :
