ment that he would name the full

ton as to appointees In Washing
ton today.
Speculation on Choice.
The Presidents statement late
yesterday was the first definite in
formation concerning the board per
sonnet since he was first given the
task of naming the new members
Commissioners Sinclair, Taylor
and Guide now are serving under
the rent act pa ssed prior to May %
1922, when the new law provided
five executives instead of three
Since the passage Of the latter law
the President has made no steps
toward naming the full body.
Mrs. Ellen Spencer Mussey, prom
lnent lawyer, and Thomas f;
Peeney, the candidate Of Senator L.
Heisler Ball, are widely mentioned
as probable appointees. Senator Ball
recently at the White House, stressed
the Importance of making the ap
pointments as soon as possible
Whether any Of the present 1ncurn
bents will give way to a new ap
pointee is problematical.
Will Clear Docket.
It is expected that the full rent
board, once under way. would be
of material assistance in clearing
the crowded docket of the com
mission. The need Of one or more
lawyers on the commission, in adj
dition to Chairman A. Leftwich
Sinclair, is pressing.
The President Is expected to name
a successor to former Engineer
Commission Charles Keller and to
fill the vacancy created on the
Police Court bench by the resigna'
ton of Judge Robert Hardison
whose term ended on April /.
Gus A. Schuldt, attorney. active
in local Republican affairs, and
Judge Sam Kash, Kentuckian, are
leading candidates.
