Washignton, Dec. 6—There is a
ftrong belief here that there will
b? more changes in the Cabinet
before long, and that some of the
administrative heads of "emer
gency" offices will be forced to
yield to the pressure that is be
ing brought to get rid of them.
Following the announcement of
the resignation of Attorney-Gen
eral Cummings, Washington ob
servers began to keep their eyes
yeeled for signs of other Cabinet
changes. «
There is a general expectation
that Harry Wood ring, Secretary
of War, and Claude Swan son,
Secretary of the Navy, will soon
retire. Mr. Swanson is an old,
sick man.
The burden of building up the
new Navy is being carried by As
sistant Secretary Charles Edison,
son of the great inventor. He is

considered an extremely capable
executive, and the only thing that
stands In the way of his prob
able promotion is the fact that
he, too, is not in very good health.
As the successor to Secretary
Woodring, nobody here thinks of
anyone but the Assistant Secre
tary of War, Louis Johnson,
former National Commander of
the American Legion.
The two Cabinet members
whose positions are regarded as
absolutely secure are the Secre
tary of State, Cordell Hull, and
the Secretary of the Treasury,
Henry Morgenthau, Jr.
Hull Most Popular
Mr. Hull is by all odds the most
popular and generally respected
iigure in the entire Administra
tion. His successful efforts to
negotiate trade agreements with
other nations, and the scrupulous
care he has taken to keep himself
and his department out of poli
tics have combined with his dig
nified yet genial personality to
win him friends among Demo
crats and Republicans alike. In
any discussion of Presidential
candidates for 1940, Mr. Hull's
name is sure to be mentioned as
a "middle of the road" Democrat

who would be acceptable to all
wings of the party.
The recurrent report that the
Secretary of Commerce, Daniel
Roper, is due to resign, has crop
ped up again and is be
lieved to be true. Talk about his
successor centers upon Harry
Hopkins, Administrator of the W.
P. A. Whether Mr. Hopkins is
the President's choice, whether he
wants the job, and whether he
coukl be confirmed by the Sen
ate if he were appointed are
questions to which no positive
answer can be given.
There are many influential
men in Washington who would
like to see somebody else in the
Cabinet as Secretary of the In
terior, rather than Harold Ickes.
Mr. ickes is reputed to be rather
unhappy about his job. A good
many functions of his depart
ment have been transferred to
others.
Has Strong Following
But he has built up a strong
following outside of Washington,
among Governors and Mayors
with whom he has had to deal
in matters concerning W. P. A.
loans, and there would be a good
deal of resistance if any political
pressure were put on the Presi
dent to remove him from the
Cabinet. Mr. Ickes, being a man
of independent wealth, does not
need the job, but he is of the
temperament which does not quit
under fire.
The one Cabinet member for
whose resignation or dismissal
political pressure is already being
put on the President is the Sec
retary of Labor, Prances Perkins.
Miss Perkins, as she is officially,
known, or "Madam Secretary," as
she is generally referred to, is
Mrs. Paul C. Wilson in private
life. The opposition to her on
Capitol Hill has been growing]
steadily for several years. The
charge is frequently heard thatj
in labor disputes her influence
has always been on the side of
John Lewis and his Committee
for industrial Organization.
Washington hears the report
that a committee representing
the American Legion recently
made a personal demand upon
the President for Miss Perkins'
removal, accompanying it by the
threat that unless she resigned oi*
was dismissed the new Congress
would impeach her on charges of
malfeasance in office.
Friend of Mrs. Roosevelt
One disadvantage under which
Miss Perkins' opponents labor is
that she is a warm personal
friend of Mrs. Roosevelt, whose
influence got her her Cabinet
appointment and who is said to
be prepared to stick by her
through thick and thin. And no
body wants to get into a public
controversy involving the Presi
dent's wife.
The political strategy of both
parties in the new Congress is
beginning to take shape. It is the
understanding here that at the
meeting of the Republican Na
tional Committee in late Novem
ber there was general agreement
to pursue the party's policy in the
last Congress. That might be
described as not getting too far
out in front, but playing ball
with the independent Democrats,
who might be sticking their necks
out, in the eyes of their Southern
constituents, if they appeared to
be following the lead of Republi
cans.
Majority Greatly Reduced
On the Democratic side, Chair
man Pattey and his righthand
men believe that, with their ma
jority so greatly reduced. Demo
cratic Congressmen will prove
more amenable to party discipline
and there will be less tendency to
stray off the reservation on the
part of those who are opposed to
the Administration and the New
Deal. If he can hold the party
together in Congress and heal the
breach between the two wings,
Mr. Farley hopes to be able to
nominate a candidate acceptable
to all Democrats in 1940 and
present a United Front in the
Opposition.
The feeling In Washington,
however, is that the leader who
will have the last word about
Democratic policies in Congress
is Vice-President Garner.

One Important Asset
A lady had spent the morning
watching some new folks move
into the neighborhood. Her hus
band came home to lunch and she
was still at the window, and re
marked: "They don't have a
radio, a dog, an ice box, any kids,
or a car. I wonder what they
do have?" Her husband grunt
ed, sarcastically, "They probably
have a bank account, then."
Marriage Lottery
Two negroes who had not seen
each other in five years discov
ered each had been married dur
ing that time.
"What kindo woman did you
get, Mose?" asked Rastus.
"She's a angel, Rastus—dat's
what she is, a angel."
"Boy, you sho is lucky! Mine's
still living."
