FEW CHANGES ANTICIPATED.
Department Of Agriculture Employees
May Not Be Greatly Disturbed.

The impression is gaining strength
about the Department OF agriculture that
the anticipated overturning Of the many
bureaus and divisions Of the department
IL not going to materiaiixe, certainly not

portant appointments that have been
made by Secretary Houston have been
those Of Robert NJ. Reese. private Sec
rotary under Secretary Wilson. reappoint-
ed. and Of DR.. B. T. Galloway, chief OF
the bureau OF plant industry. as assistant
secretary.
That no radical changes in the per-
sonnet Of the department are contem-
plated by Secretary Houston appears to
be certain. Bureau chiefs have gained
tho impression that whatever changes
are made will be based on efficiency, and
win be for the betterment OF the service.
Where such betterment can. In the opin-
ion Of Secretary Houston, be brought
about by making change In any Of the
bureaus. new chiefs will be named. AS all
the bureaus are believed to be In charge
Of capable chiefs, 1t 10 the general i'm
preston that few heads will fall as q re-
suit OF the change In the administration.
