Jan. 2S.-President Will
sons seleption of Edwin T. Meredith
as secretary of agriculture was char
acterized today as the most perfect
appointment ever made by the present
administration. Meredith was uni
versally declared to be an ideal choice
for the cabinet position, and while
Wilbur w. Marsh and William D.
Jameson, members of the democratic
national committee from Iowa were
credited with suggesting Meredith for
the post, the Des Moines mans quail
fications for the position were said 1t
the White House to have won him the
appointment. Summing UP Mr.. Mere
dith's qualifications Secretary OF the
Navy Daniels, the only cabinet men,
Der interviewed on the changes in the
cabinet. said: II have known Mere
dith for many years and think very
highly Of him. He is really one Of the
best posted men on agricultural
questions in the country. He has built
one Of the greatest and most widely
circulated and influential farm Jour
nails IN the world He is live wire.
a capable and splendid organizer, an
able editor and public leader. The
farmers of the whole country know he
Is very active In every measure to
advance agricultural methods and IN
crease the prosperity Of men who tin
the soil. There is no man in America
better qualified for this great office
than Mr. Meredith. He lives in the
heart Of the most prosperous agricul-
tural section of the United States and
is as wise as he is progressive. He
will enter upon the duties of the office
with the confidence Of the farmers OF
the country and make a great record.
OF course, I am glad the president
found the new cabinet officer in the
profession of Journalism, and a leader
in the profession"

y Des Moines. Jan. 2s.-The appoint
mont OF Edward r. Meredith. publisher
OF Successful Farming. Dss Moines. a.
secretary of agriculture to succeed
Secretary Houston IN President Will
sons cabinet. came a. q distinct SUR
prise to his numerous acquaintance
here. That Meredith has long been
close to the president was known, but
that he would take q place In his cab
met had never been disclosed here IN.
til the news came over the wire.
However. the Des Moines publisher
has been more closely associated with
the administration leaders down nj
Washington than was generally real
ICED in his home city and state. As a
director Of the Chicago federal reserve
bank he became intimately acquainted
with the presidents son-in-law. VIII
liam G. McAdoo, and these two became
warm personal friends.
Meredith's work as standard bear
err for the democrats out in Iowa Is
said also to have been appreciated by
the leaders. Shrewd democratic lead
ers have wanted the strongest state
ticket in Iowa possible for the demo-
Gratis to put up, not because they en-
tertained much hope Of electing dem
ocrat to any important state office. but
to help the national ticket.
Hence when Meredith made the fight
for governor against Harding In 1915
and also whom he ran for United States
senator two years previous and made
a hard battle to win he built UP politi-
cal assets for himself down at Wash
ington which have always stood him
in hand.
Meredith also took an active part In
the war work activities from the WASH
ington end Of it and, thru 1t all he has
demonstrated his ability so evident In
his business to handle big things In q
big way, and has also proven his vision
and his originality.
Meredith will only have about a year
to serve to complete the term Of Soc
rotary Houston. whom he succeeds. His
friends here do not expect him to fol-
low the career Of a politician. for
while he has been active in political
affairs he has never been classed as
politician. However, it is even now
being suggested that he might bs
among those regarded as likely pos
sibility for president by the democrats
for years hence.
Early this month he was elected
president of the Associated Advertising
Clubs Of the World. He is thirty
third degree Mason, member of the Ia
Ga-Zig temple. Mobiles of the Mystic
Shrine, and q member Of the Des
Moines Club. Grant Club. Golf and
Country Club and the Greater Des
Moines committee.
