Nov hF To- the rest of tho cabinet
having brcu In Washington three
DAYS and not having discussed the
subject with a single person here OF
elsewhere. with due diffcrcnc" to
all other CabinctmakcrH, aud with
tho mental reservation that II nny
better material shows up ON more
maturo dclihctatiOn, the privileg" OF
revision IL not waived. ! wish TO
auggcst that the following would
mako an excellent cabinet:
Secretary Of state senator HI
ram johnson, California,
Secretary of Trcnsury-Governor
Frank - Lowden. Illinois.
Secretary of War--General Leon b.
ard A. wood, at large.
Secretary OF the Navy Former
senator John w. Weeks. Mnssachu'
scttS
Attorney Gcnernl--IIarry NJ.
Dsugherty. ohio.
Secretary Of lnterior--Senato Al
bert u. Jrall. New Mexico.
Secretary of griCulturo-iienry
G. wallace, Iowa.
Secretary OF Iabor---Rcprosont
tiyc John f.. burke, pennsylyanih.
Post master Gcncral--Will Hays
Indiana.
Secretary OF CONNIE tco-Walter
4. Dickcy, Missouri.
The only Two suggestions when
are entirely original with me are
Hiram Johnson. for secretary OF
state and General Leonard A. WOOD
for secretary Of war. These. both
OF whom are emincntly fitted Tor
the places mentioned, would taNc
care Of the convention contest NJ
Chicago which resulted In the nom
ination Of Warren q. Harding Tor
the presidency.
Had It not been for the contest
between johnson and Wood haru
Ing would never havn secured the
nomination and their appointment
to his cabinet would serve many
good purposes aside from the fact
that they would he two OF the
strongest and best equipped men
for the cabinet positions suggested
that can be- named.
II is n noticeable fact that no
mention IL ever made by the CAP
nctmakers OF either Wood or Jonn-
son. For secretary OF war Pershihh
In tho only name mentioned ana u
awakens no particular enthusiasm
and being generally accepted as a
very polite way OF avoiding the
mention OF Leonard wood. while foi
secretary of state the names or Phii,
apdor q. Knox, David Jayne iih
and Charles ". Hughes are alter
uately played up. The appointnieh
| Of either OF the three would max
no especial appeal to popular en-
| thuslasm except Knox whose ag
and health are handicaps generaii'
accepted as making II doubtful II ~
would accept the appointment
| rendered him.
As dopesters like David Law
renee, sam Rlythe and Mark SUN
van would interpolatc at thN June
ture, these remarks and sugges''on'
are subject to change without no
ticc and will bo altered by circum
stances that may arisc even before
this Ia I'm print,
