TALK BARKLEY AS ATTORNEY GENERAL Cummings Loyal Enough But Somehow Is Unable ‘‘To Ring the Bell” By CHARLES P. STEWART Washington, Nov. 14. —It is com mon talk in Washington that Senator Alben W. Barkley of Kentucky is slated to succeed Homer S- Cum mings as attorney general. Cummings, to be candid, has not turned out to be much of an asset to the administration.

Probably he upderstands New England, but may be not the remainder of the country. He was born, indeed, in Chicago, but has lived most of his life in Connec ticut. He is likable at short range, but is no mass spellbinder. Also, he lost the administrations case in defense of NRA s constitu tionality.
