Cabinet N A MES.
Those Claiming to Be in
Touch With President
Elect Issue List of Ones
Selected for Cabinet

st. Augustine, Fla. Feb. 17.-As
President-elect Harding continued his
conferences with the ranking leaders
OF his party today, it was indicated
that completion of the cabinet slate of
the coming administration waited only
on definite selections for the portfolios
of navy, commerce, and labor.
BY all those in close touch with the
situation, it was conceded however
that these selections might not only
lead to considerable delay, but might
also involve some shifting OF the
assignments already more or less
definitely fixed. 1t was considered
unlikely that any announcements
would be made until day or two
before Inauguration.
AS the list stood today, with navy
commerce and labor vacant it was
understood TO contemplate the ap.
pointment Of Charles Evans Hughes
of New York, for secretary of State;
John w. Weeks, of Massachusetts
for secretary of war; Andrew Mellon
of Pennsylvania for secretary of tn,
treasury; VIII II. Hays, Of Indiana
for postmaster general Harry NJ
Daugherty, Of Ohio, for attorney gen
eral; Henry Wallace Of Iowa, fol
secretary of agriculture, and A. b
Fall of New Mexico, for secretary o
the interior.
For the navy portfolio Frank o
Lowden Of Illinois, is understood TO be
Mr. Harding's choice, but it Is un
certain whether he will accept anC
there has been talk of transferring
Mr.. Weeks to that position if the IL
linois governor definitely declines.
Several names, including those 0
John Hays Hammond of New York
and Herbert Hoover of California
have been mentioned for the com
merce portfolio, while james ]. Davi
Of Pennsylvania, and a number o
others are being urged for secretar
Of labor.
This morning Nr. Harding agail
talked over the problem with MI
Hays and later in the day he expecte
to begin Il series OF confe1nces o.
the subject with Mr.. Daugherty. MI
Hughes, Mr.. Mellon and several other
high in party councils are expecte
here before the end of the week.

ences today was with Arthur Woods

tional council of defense, a. ii. Smiti
