qualify and assume their new duties to-
morrow.
All the outgoing cabinet ministers will

by notary regularly attached to the de-

In Line With Wilson's Policy.

The selection of Vice Chancellor Garri-
son of New Jersey to be Secretary of
War is in line with the idea Mr.. Wilson
has always had that the head of the War
Department should be a man of unusual
administrative ability. Supervision of the
island possessions Of the United States
including the Philippines and the Panama
Canal Zone, will be important factors
under the new administration. and this
burden will fall on the head Of the War
Department. Vice Chancellor Garrison is
a close friend Of Mr. Wilson and Is re-
garded as one of the best men New Jer-
sey has ever elevated to the bench.
The choosing of David Franklin Hous-
ton, chancellor Of Washington Univer-
sity at ST Louis. Mo-, for the portfolio
of Agriculture also occasions little sur
prise, as Mr. Wilson'S intimate knowledge
of agricultural questions has led him 10
seek a man familiar with the processes
of advancing scientific farming and al
lied questions in this country. Mr. Hous-
ton was president of the Texas Agricul-
turaI and Mechanical College for num-
Der OF years.
