PRESIDENT AVOIDS ALL APPOINTMENTS
ShunS Recess Filling Of Federal
 Posts When Possible

Washington, Aug. 28 P-Presi- dent Hoover is adhering, as closely as exigencies permit, to a. quietly adopted policy of keeping recess ap- pointments at a minimum.
 The chief executive has taken the view that unless situations arise re- -quiring immediate filling of federal posts to carry on the proper func- tions of the government. appoint gress is in session.
 From authoritative sources 1t was ascertained that MT. Hoover reached this conclusion out of consideration to both the senate and his prospec- tive appointees.
 Wants Senate to Act Wherever possible, the president desires the senate to have opportun- ity to consider his nominees before they take office. He is understood also to feel that should that legis- lative branch decline to approve re- cess appointees, it would work hardships on the persons involved and the government branches at- focted
 - In line with this policy. he has deferred until December the ap- l pointment of five members to the 1 independent federal power commis- sion authorized by congress to re- place that composed of the secre- taries of war, interior and agricul- ture.
 In addition, he has postponed making appointments to fill vacan- cies in the federal courts wherever court business is not pressing. Whenever necessary. however. the chief executive has not hesitated to name recess appointees. particularly to diplomatic posts and to other positions where government business and relations would be enhanced by having them filled.
 In the meantime, MT. Hoover is studying applicants for vacant posi- tions and is understood to have chosen several.
