BAKER APPOINTED
WAR BUREAU HEAD
Former Mayor of Cleveland,
Close Friend of Wilson, Is
Named to Succeed Lind
ley NJ. Garrison.

Washington, March Newton C.
Baker, former mayor of Cleveland,
Ohio, has been selected by President
Wilson for secretary of war.
Mr.. Baker has accepted the position
and is now arranging his affairs in
Cleveland preparatory to coming to
Washington to take up his duties.
Mr.. Bakers name had been men
toned in connection with the position
| several times. He was offered a place
when the cabinet was formed, but de-
clined.
The selection of Mr.. Baker is under
| stood to have been. discussed by Presi-
lent Wilson with Col. e. M. House
soon after the latter's arrival here this
morning.
Once Offered Place.
When President Wilson was making
up his cabinet in 1913, he offered the
place of secretary of interior to Mr..
Baker twice. Mr.. Baker hen was
mayor of Cleveland and declined for
that reason.
The president and Mr.. Baker have
been close friends for some time and
Mr.. Baker is said to be in close sym
pathy with the presidents policies, and
is known to have had the support of
some members of the cabinet for the
war office.
When President Wilson recently was
touring the middle west on his pre-
p~aredness program, he talked with Mr..
Baker in Cleveland. Mr.. Baker has
been in Washington frequently of late.
The 30-day period of which Mat.
Gen. Hugh L. Scott, chief of staff, was
designated secretary of war was ad in
term will expire March II. 1t is be-
lieved Mr.. Bakers nomination will be
sent to the Senate before that time.
Long Public Career.
Mr.. Baker is "A years old. He was
born in Martinsburg, w. Va, and at
| fln ~ oF <
secretary of Postmaster General Will
son, in President Cleveland's cabinet.
In 1897 he began the practice of law at
Martinsburg. but not long thereafter,
moved to Cleveland, where he became
city solicitor in 1902. He held this office
for 10 years until his election as mayor.
Mr.. axe has received degrees from
Johns-Hopkins and Washington and
Lee universities. For years Mr.. Baker,
has been closely identified with the re-
form movement in Cleveland, and has
taken an active part in the street rail-
way controversy there.
When Mayor Tom L. johnson died.
Mr.. Baker took up the fight for lower
street car fares in Cleveland, argued
the case before the supreme court and
finally brought about an adjustment of
the street railway franchise in Cleve-
land.
AT the time of the Baltimore con-
vention, when President Wilson was
nominated, Mr.. Baker was prominently
mentioned for the vice presidency be-
cause of the fight he made in support
OF Mr.. Wilson. He went to the conyen-
ton as a Wilson supporter and fought
successfully against the application of
the unit rule to the Ohio delegation.
Mr.. Baker is highly regarded by the
president as a lawyer. Mr.. Wilson
wanted the place filled by a lawyer be-
cause of legal questions constantly
arising in it's administration.
