That specu- , I at ion. as well founded as any po litical speculation might be. is be- ; ing widely discussed a- speculators | ’o about planning Mr Rodsevelt'G cabinet for him. Peculiarly enough, it this report.: be true, then the choice for a cab inet seat lies between the Shell' man and one of his closest friend Byrd and Gardner have been inti mate friends for years, their friend ship being more strongly eemenU,; during the early years of the Gardner’administration and the last, years of: Byrd's administration. 1 Several other prominent South erners. including Senator E. 13 ■ Cotton Ed> Smith./, of South Caro lina. and Senator John Cohen, edi tor of.

Both governors are personal friends oi the president-elect. It. will, from all appearance:. be a contest between Gardner's known knowledge of pub lic affairs and his long experience in office and Byrd's personal rec ord governor combined with tin prominence of his family and the backing of Virginia, mother state of presidents, if Gardner goes to the cabinet. it will likely be. as sec rotary oi agriculture while Byrd may go as cither secretary of agri culture or commerce. ooitrmxmi os tip t Baby And Flower Show Is Enjoyed Kathrine Quinn And Winder Moser Prettiest And Handsomest Babies.
