DR.. Wilbur, as matter of fact, Is a
lieutenant after Mr.. Hoover's own
heart. They think alike. He knows he
need never worry about soundness, In
telligence or integrity, and he knows
that he will not be so worried by ap-
peals for guidance on details that he
might as well undertake the task him
self.
Which may explain why Mr. Hoover
has directed into the Interior Depart
ment in the last few months so many
ambitious plans for making the United
States a better and happier country in
which to live-the very kind of prob
lens which appeal more to Mr.
Hoover's personal interest and magma
ton than many which normally figure
more frequently on the front pages of
newspapers.
Child Welfare Of Chief Concern.
OF all these the most important, from
the standpoint of Mr.. Hoover's per-
sonal interest, is child welfare. Second
would come education, with all its ram
ifications, including the possibilities of
radio in this direction. Close up would
come the care of the Indians. probably
up to now one of the most stupidity adj
ministered activities of the Government,
despite the kindest intentions and lavish
governmental expenditure.
So much has been written about the
wealth of the Indians, of their driving
high priced automobiles and being sued
for breach of promise for huge sums

the Secretary of the Interior then in
office, much less who had been In Office
10 years before.
But Mr.. Hoover is making the In
terror Department more important
again. He has picked his old friend,
for whom he has tremendous admira-
ton, for the job which will deal with
the problems which really intrigue the
Presidents imagination.
1t may surprise even close observers
of Herbert Hoover to learn that, far
from being a me too" for the Presi-
dent, DR.. Wilbur is probably the most
independent high official in the Gov
eminent today. First, he did not want
the Job at all. He would much rather
have continued as president of Leland
Stanford Actually, he would rather
return to the practice of medicine than
do anything else in the world. He
yielded to the persuasion of his old
friend and took the place, just as he
accepted from President Coolidge the
appointment as a delegate to the Sixth
Pan-American Conference, at Havana.
Secretary's Method Commended.
Since taking the assignment he has
delighted Mr.. Hoover, as a matter of
fact, by going deep into the Job with
out worrying about where the chips
might fall when he chopped. and with
out being disturbed as to whether what
he was planning was politically wise,
or even whether all the details of It
happened to meet the approval Of his
chief.

President Hoover today signed the
census aud reapportionment bill.
The law provides that the next de
