NEW POSTMASTERS

Special TO The Evening Journal.
WASHINGTON. Nov. 14-Changes
in the makeup OF the various COM
mittee Craftsmanship probably will
not affect Senator l.. Heisler Ball,
who is now chairman of the Senate
District Committee. II Is thought.
Considerable speculation has been
heard here as to the committee as
signments OF Senator-elect Bayard,
Democrat, OF Delaware
It has been pointed out that II
will be a difficult matter for the new
" elected Democratic members Of
Congress to obtain desirable commit
tee assignments. as the number of
Democrats who came in on the land
slide OF last Tuesday will increase
the numbers so as to make it difii-
cult 10 give them as good assign
ments as they might desire. In the
case of Delaware's delegation, there
are two Democrats to be taken care
of in committee assignments.
In the present Congress, Senator
Ball IS chairman of the Senate Dis
trict Committee and is n member of
the committee on naval affairs, both
major committees When Senator
T. Coleman dupont came to the SEN
