JEANETTE EECKMAN
TO Be SECRETARY To
SENATOR DU POINT
Will Look After Political In
terests Among Delaware
Women.
PATTERSON FOR POsTOFfICE

Miss jeanette Eckman, according to
well authenticated rumor. will be Sena-
tor Coleman du Points political secre-
tary for women of Delaware. Senator
du Pont WILL according to plans an
nounced by him prior to his leaving
for Colorado Springs few weeks ago.
name man secretary, who win look
after his political activities in Della
ware and keep him posted on what is
transpiring throughout the state.
The selection of Miss Eckman Is
pleasing to many persons. It was
Miss Eckmnn's executive and organiz-
ing talents during the war that made
the State Council of Defense in the
woman's department. the welfare
agencies and many other details so
successful.
Later her part in the organization
of the Republican women OF Della
ware had much to do with the sue
cess of that party at the polls last
November, 1t is said. During the try
ing times last winter and spring. when
the Republican women were threaten
ed all the time with a serious split, it
was due largely to Miss Eckman's
diplomacy that wider breach was not
made. In her position as secretary Of
the women's organization. Miss Eek
man brought to bear all her ability
in steering political storms so as TO
avoid disaster.
Another rumor that apparently will
not be down. is that Republican
County Chairman Charles A. Patter-
son is being urged for appointment
of postmaster of Wilmington. Some
of Mr.. Patterson's friends say. oh
bosh," when the matter is mentioned.
Others. however. say there is more to
1t than just rumor and gossip. They
argue that neither William p. White
or NJ. Howard Jester will be able TO
land the p. NJ. because of bitter
opposition and that Charles A. Ru-
dolph and State Senator j. W. Robert
son, who are also in the field. are not
likely TO win. as things stand now.
This leads to the belief that new man
must be selected for the position and
that Chairman Patterson. with his
host of friends, is the man for the
place.
