fluence, but were personal appointees of

fiuence, but were personal appointees Of
President Coolidge.
Some of the men in the present cab
met have been ardent Hoover men
from the beginning. 1t is said, for
instance, that both the Secretary of
the Navy and the Secretary of Agri-
culture owe their appointments to Mr..
Hoover'S recommendation. Postmaster
General Harry New and Secretary Mel
Ion were Harding appointees. Here
again the PreSident-elect may want to
avail himself of the knowledge and
experience gained by these officers.
1t seems to be taken for granted that
Attorney General Sargent wants to go
back to Vermont and that his right
hand man, Col William Donovan, will
be Attorney General. Also 1t is prac-
tically certain that Secretary Mellon
will stay.
But with the possible exception Of
the Attorney General, the Secretary OF
Interior and perhaps the Secretary OF
Commerce, it would not be surprising
to see :he Coolidge cabinet remain vir-
tually intact for some time, some Of the
changes being made in the first year
rather than on March 4, as 1t is known
MIR. Hoover would like to honor some
of his colleagues by asking them to
continue at least until after the tram
sition period of his administration is
well under way.
The initiative in cabinet changes will
probably have to come from the men ir
the Coolidge cabinet. 1t is certain that
Mr.. Coolidge will not ask his successor
to keep any. of his appointees, as he
feels the new President should be free
to shape his own policies without en-
barrassment of any kind. D. L.

CABINET CHOICES
HARD FOR HOOVER
designations of Present
Members Would Both Help
and Hurt New Executive.

Picking cabinet will be a different
task for President-elect Herbert Hoover
than for other Presidents.
Mr. Hoover sat in the cabinet with
men appointed by Presidents Harding
and Coolidge. Nobody knows which
ones he would like to retain. And yet
he docs not want to be in the position
cf asking any to retire. His personal
friendship for his colleagues. his knowl-
edge OF their respective abilities on the
one hand and yet the demands of @
campaign organization on the other
will not easily blend unless, of course,
there is voluntary retirement by the
present cabinet.
New Dilemma Presented.
And there again Mr.. Hoover is in
a dilemma, for he wants to retain
some of the men who now are familiar
with Coolidge policies and with his
own views. Many student of gov
ernment has found that man who
might have had mediocre ability at the
start becomes a valuable department
executive when he has had four years
or more of experience. Mr.. Hoover
now has to weigh the value of that
experience in the light of campaign
responsibilities, if not obligations.
While it is true that Mr.. Hoover made
no promises, it is the essence of poll
tics that some of the men who did the
yeoman work have to be rewarded
otherwise down the line the spirit of in
difference grows up and causes friction
in the next campaign. Mr. Hoover
probably never has said a word about
it, but it is in line with his ambition
for a constructive administration no
doubt for him to wish to serve eight
instead of four years. Party harmony
for 1882 is an essential factor in the
way new administration goes at polit-
ical obligations in 1928 and 1929.

started out from Roberts and as long
as the Hoover men were following him
in car, he did fine. However, he ad-

WEATHER WAS
MADE TO ORDER
FOR THE WIND :

Maxim gweather to order on the
largest scale ever attempted in pic
lures was the strange task carried out
in the filming of THE Wind" Lillian
Gish's new Metro-Goldwyn- Mayor
starring vehicle, which will be shown
at the Iris theater, Sunday and Mon
day, Nov. / Sand 10. Windstorms,
tempests, and even tornado, were
duplicated for the screen by engineer
ing science.
Complete details of the storms
which were staged on the Moiave de-
sert were worked out by the engineer
ing department at the studio. The
plans read like some fanciful novel Of
a strange scientist that could control
weather-but instead of being fanci-
full, the work was extremely practical.
The tornado, for instance Was pro-
duced as an actual artificial tornado
was recently produced at Washington,
in the laboratories of the United
States weather bureau.
In the government laboratory a
series of fans, playing into wide
open space in a boxed-in room of the
laboratory, were used to duplicate the
tornado's action for study. The same
means were employed on larger
SCALE with a giant airplane propellers
and ever larger fans, aetuated by
electricity, and the wide open spaces
of the Mojave desert replacing the
enclosed room.
1.-THE making of a tornado in min
iature," says Lou Kolb, chief electri-
cal engineer at the studio, "may be
best explained by room and door.
If one suddenly opens door in a
room where the air is perfectly still,
swinging the door in sharply, little
whirlwinds can be seen to fly into
the room. if there is smoke or dust
present to make them visible. The
reason is that the door, flying in,
displaces the air in the room, causing
it to fly outward while, at the same
time, it sucks in after it, another cur
rent. Thus, two currents of air pass
each other at considerable speed and
each exerts friction against the col
umn of air between the two, thus Civ
ing it rotary motion, as pencil
turns if rubbed between the palms OF
the hands, each moving in an opposite
direction.

GOOD
INDICATOR OF RATE
CAR rs TRAVELLING G

The speedometers of the new model
A Ford cars have shown remarkable
accuracy in the measurement of
speeds.
Designed and built to maintain an
accuracy of within three miles fast
at 10 miles per hour, these speedomet-
ers of the new Fords thus far have
shown in tests, an average accuracy
of not more than one and a. half miles
fast at 70 miles per hour, or just one
half of the tolerance allowed.
The allowed tolerance of three miles
fast at speed of 70 miles per hour
means, translated into terms of aver
age driving speeds, that if the speed
ometer on the car indicates a speed
of "a miles per hour the actual rate of
travel of the car at that time is not
less than % miles per hour, or that
if the speedmoter shows a speed OF
AZ miles per hour, the car actually is
travelling at speed of not less than
45 miles per hour.
Whatever the speed limit allowed by
law, the driver of one of the new
Fords may be certain that he is with
in that limit if his speedometer indi-
Gates exactly that figure which is the
legal limit
The speedometer which is standard
equipment on the new Fords is one Of
The Carbon County news., 1928-11-15

the best known and finest of makes.
1t is driven from gear ON the drive
shaft and measures speed from the
revolutions per minute of the shaft.
The tests of these instruments that
are being made regularly in the Ford
engineering laboratory at Dearborn
are interesting. The speedometers
are tested against an electric tacho-
meter, which in turn is checked with
an integrating revolution counter, the
most precise device made for determ-
ining speeds in revolutions per min
ute.
