MAY CREATE CABINET POST FOR WPA CHIEF

WASHINGTON, Dec. 16. — High administrative sources disclosed today that Harry L. Hopkins, WPA administrator, was favored for a new abinet post to be known as a secretary of public welfare. There has ben talk for some time that a new cabinet job would be created in connection with a forthcoming reorganization of governmental agencies and activities. Itopkins was in the van among those being mentioned for the post, although the name of Secretary Perkins also was being discussed. A possible complication was seen in reports that Hopkins, displeased with the action of Mayor Fiorello La Guardia in preventing a 33,000 reduction in the WPA personnel of Now York City, was considering retirement. Mans for the new department were "id to contemplate correlating unk :■ one portfolio all the government’s '•nr.: public welfare operations. That would include everything from the children’s bureau, now in the department of labor, to the independent office of education and the mammoth social security program.

EAST WASHINGTON STREET

NEW YORK, Dec. 16, (UP)—Protests mounted today over the latest sensational episode in tho crime-shat-tering program 6f J. Edgar Hoover’s federal G-men. Police and fire officials vigorously condemned the federal bureau of investigation director for leading a spectacular raid upon an apartment near Riverside Drive yesterday to capture Harry Brunette, bank robber and kidnaper. Brunette surrendered after Hoover’s men raked his home with revolver and machine gun fire and terrified other residents of the five-story building. City police and New Jersey state troopers contended that they had located Brunette’s hideout and Hoover stepped in at the last minute to “steal the show.” Had the federal chief waited until the “zero hour” agreed upon in advance, they said, Brunette and his bride, who was wounded in the affray, might have been seized without gunplay. A tear gas bomb thrown during the siege set fire to Brunette’s apartment. When firemen arrived, they were placed in a cross fire of bullets fired by the G-men and Brunette. Fire Commisisoner John J. McElligott was incensed because his men had been exposed to danger, and it was understood that a complete report on the situation had been placed before Mayor F. H. LaGuardia. Hoover expressed surprise that his actions had been criticized. He declared that his bureau had “never double-crossed anyone” and that all precautions were taken to protect in nocent persons.

HEARS CONFESSION EROOKV1LLE, Ind., Dec. 16 (UP) —A Franklin circuit court jury heard for the first time yesterday tho signed confession of Heber L. Hicks, on trial for the slaying of Harry R. Miller, former Cincinnati, O., firo captain. Reading of the confession Hicks allegedly signed at Seymour July 7, climaxed a three-day fight by defense attorneys to prevent using the document as evidence. Judge Roscoe C. O’Bymo overruled arguments that the confession was obtained under duress. Yesterday’s proceedings were a repetition of the earlier “trial within a trial” during the battle over admissibility of the confession at which the jury was not present. Sergt. Leo Grimstead, Detective Russell Coons ,and Capt. Matt Leach of state police repeated their previous testimony that Hicks had not been mistreated or abused by police officers.
