Cabinet Members
Satisfied With
Regrouping Plan

WASHINGTON, May 7.--In an
effort to smooth out any difficulties
Of opinion which might exist among
the members OF his cabinet concern
ing reorganization Of federal depart-
n1ents and bureaus, President Hard
ing this week will hold individual
conferences with the members Of his
Official family. This plan was said
to have been decided upon at the
cabinet meeting Friday when the re-
port OF Walter r. Brown OF Ohio,
chairman of the joint congressional
commission on reorganization OF
departments and bureaus
was considered. The president was
said To feel that the views of his
cabinet expressed individually would
enable him to form speedy decision.
Ii was stated today by those inti-
mately involved in the formation OF
the reorganization plans that reports
of alleged bitterness among members
OF the cabinet in connection with
what had been described as "en-
croachment on each others depart
ments," was wholly without founda-
ton, and to the contrary, the entire
cabinet had entered into the project
with cordial support Of the presidents
plans.
Senator Snaoot, Republican. Utah.
a member Of the commission. said he
believed a report would be ready for
submission to a congressional COM
mittee by the middle of the month.
and that he would introduce q bill
covering the proposed changes and
have 1t passed before the end OF the
present congress.

That citizens of the state be more
jealous in their trial of murder
cases when sitting as trial jurors, is
the appeal which has been issued
by w. j. Galbraith, attorney general.

viously untrue, nor is there any
necessity for trial juror to cling

In hope that some concerted ac-

Mr.. Galbraith has mailed the fol-

of great concern to this office.

I'VE, as the prosecuting officers
OF this state must in some way re-
double our efforts. Murders are
becoming entirely too frequent, and
murderers are too frequently escap-
ing the full penalty of the law. II
the trial juries will not protect us

and il certainly takes the heart out
OF the prosecuting officers TO have

murder cases, and refuse, on trivial
grounds, to find a conviction. Our

thoroughly realize the seriousness
of this situation.
