CABINET MIDDLE IS
 50 SERIOUS T MAY
 REQUIRE NEW START
Harding Chagrinned and Wor- ried By Things Being Said About His Tentative
 Selections
By ROBERT T. SMALL

Marion, O., January z. - Special. )-While on the sur face everything has appeared placid in Marion the last week, it can be stated that beneath this calm surface there is an upheaval which threatens to wipe out the entire tentative cabinet slate Senator Harding has had in mind.
 There has come what might be termed d sort of cabinet cataclysm and it would seem to involve everybody mentioned for office from Charles l.. Hughes down to Will Fl. Hays.
 The Presidcnt-cIcct today np-
 pcarcd to he far nwBy from
 definite decision ns to the mem
 bership of his official family ns
 he wns three or four weeks ago.
 All of this is due to the fact that
 every time man hss been mem
 toned for particular portfolio
 in the Mnrton dispatches. that man
 has been subjected to n bombard-
 mcnt of criticism.
 This criticism. it may be stated has not been applied in the case of Mr.. Hughes. His selection as prospective rSecretary of state has met with all most universal approval. The diffi- culty with Mir. Hughes is said to bs that he has not yet told Senator Iiard- ing whether he will accept the post. It is not an easy matter to pick q Secretary of State. The man desired for such position must be man of affairs, and before entering the cab met must have time to arrange these affairs so they can Do taken care of while he i, in public office
 MAY BEGIN ANEW There Is reason to believe an effort would be made to get d decision from MT. Hughes one way or the other with- in the next day or two, and 1t is dis tinctly among the possibilities that MT. Harding may have to begin anew at the very top of his slate.
 Quite bitter fight is being waged over what may be termed the proposed political appointments to the cabi- ret, and in this group would De in cluded Harry M. Daugherty slated Tor Attorney General; Will II Hays slated for Postmaster General, and A. Tobias liert of Kentucky, slated for Secretary | of War or some other post.
 | Senator Harding had m abiding | fnith in the human race until he began the task of cabinet building. ! Since that time his faith has been | badly shaken. He has been amazed at some of the reports which have
 reached him; nmnzed that men can hnrb0r So much deceit and un-
 truth. He has been amazed nr the l Jeniousies which hnxc been aroused | md in some cascs at the display or
