President Hoover Won't Make Recess
Appointments Unless II Is Necessary

In line with this policy. he has de-
ferred until December appointment Of
five members to the independent fed
eral power commission authorized by
congress to replace that composed Of
the secretaries Of war. interior and
agriculture.
In addition. he has postponed max
ing appointments to fill vacancies 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 posi-
tons where government business and
relations would be enhanced by hav-
ing them filled.
In the meantime. Mr. Hoover is
studying applicants for vacant posi-
tons and Is understood to have
chosen several.
Within a fer days he Is expected
70 complete the personnel Of the tar
80 commission. \

Washington, Aug. 28.-(R-Presi-
dent Hoover Is adhering as closely as
exigencies permit to a quietly adopted
policy of keeping recess appointments
at a minimum.
The chief executive has taken the
view that unless situations require
immediate filling Of federal posts to
carry on the proper functions Of the
government. appointments should be
deferred until congress is in session.
From authoritative sources 1t was
ascertained that Mr.. Hoover reached
this conclusion. out Of consideration
to both the senate and his prospective
appointees.
Wherever possible, the president
desires the senate to have opportunity
to consider his nominees before they
take office. He is understood also to
feel that should that legislative
branch decline to approve recess APP
r~ointees. IT would work hardshlps on
the person involved and the govern
I-nent branches affected.

The coroner also decreed that racer

was that no planes may fly at a low
