KNOX MAY GET.
STATE MANTLE.
Close Friends Say Pennsylvania
Man Logical Head Of
Harding Cabinet.

With the return of some OF 1hs
members OF the Harding party from
Point Isabel, and the prospective
early return of the President-eiect
from Panama, gossip concerning the
new Cabinet is becoming more and
more animated.
MANY PAPER FORECASTS.
Cabinets and more Cabinets have
been made up on paper. but the fact
OF the matter is, according to those
closest TO Senator Harding, that he
has not yet selected his ADVISORY
body, although II is true that he has
talked over the qualifications or this
man and that man for the Cabinet
What will be done about the office
~ Secretary of State continues to be
the subject Of the most talk and con-
alteration. Latterly, the opinion Is
growing In well-informed quarters
that Eiihu Root will probably not be
chosen for the Secretaryship or STATE
The man who would undoubtedly
meet the favor OF the most OF the
men with whom Senator Harding Is
accustomed to counsel is said 10 be
Senator Knox OF Pennsylvania. for
mer Secretary Of State.
Close friends of Senator Knox say
ne would be willing to quit the SEN
ate for the office of Secretary OF
State. to carry out international poll
cies which he has advocated In the
Senate.
HUGHES MENTIONED.
In the last several days, there has
been increasing mention of Former
Justice Hughes as Secretary of State.
As lawyer and turist Justice
Hughes Is well qualified for the po-
sition. He has not, of course. had the
training in the international and dip
lomatic field that Knox or Root has.
David Jayne Hill, for years in the
diplomatic service. has been repeated
ly mentioned.
The common assumption that for
lner Senator George Sutherland Will
be in the new Cabinet is understood
10 be well founded. His selection for
the Attorney Generalship and later
on for the Supreme Court is a prob
ability.
Practically all the Cabinet states In
clude National Chairman VIII II. Hays
rs Postmaster General. 1t is under
stood to be very doubtful whether
Mr.. Hays would care to accept the
office of Postmaster General, as he is
a lawyer by profession and is in a
position to practice it under attrac-
tive circumstances.
