Centralization Os Pouter

By CHARLES P. STEWART ,
Washington. Nov. 25. —Up to the
very end of his White House tenure
President Hoover is sticking to what
has been the guiding principle of his
whole administration—that the fewer (
heads put together to decide impor-1
tant questions, the better.
The president favors commissions
to gather information, but centraliza
tion of gray matter to utilize it.
In summoning the merest handful*
of members of congress into confer-'
ence with him to agree on a policy 1
toward America's war debtors he has 1
followed this theory to its conclusion'
as faithfully as in every past emer-I
gency throughout his entire term in!
the executive mansion. *
Os course the six senators and half I
dozen of representatives, with whom j
he has discussed the debt situation,
total only 12 out of the 531 lawmakers i
whose majority voice finally will pass
on the administration's plan of deal
