Show Cabinet Guesses Politicians and newspaper men are busy picking President-elect Hoover's cabinet, just as they are in guessing what President Coolidge and Governor Al Smith will do when their terms of office expire. Here are some of the cabinet guesses: guess-es: For secretary of state Ambassador Morrow or Senator Borah; for secretary secre-tary of the treasury, Mellon, reappoint ed; for attorney-general, "Wild Bill'' Donovan, at present assistant; for postmaster-general, New, reappointed, or Good; for secretary of commerce, possibly Dr. Julius Klein, toreign trade expert; the rest not even guessed at. Some believe a Southern man will be given an important cabinet post. Whether any of the guesses will prove correct is just another guess, because be-cause Mr. Hoover himself recently said: "Any truthful declarations on the cabinet members will be announced by me and all other statements will be based on theory and conjecture." In the meantime, Mr. Hoover's tour of Central and South America will be a combinatin of business and pleasure, no small part of the pleasure being a temporary respite from the importunities impor-tunities cf office-seekers. |
