Elect Franklin D. Roosevelt has a
hatful Of prominent names from
which to select a cabinet, but he
will proceed slowly and cautiously,
as the country demands tried and
experienced men, we'll informed on
current problems.
The President ELECT may not an
nounce his cabinet until the eve Of
Inauguration, save for secretary of
state and secretary of treasury,
whom he may designate earlier to
assure this country and foreign ma
tons that these important posts will
be satisfactorily filled.
Though Mr.. Roosevelt has had the
aid of many Republicans of the
progressive and independent stamp
in his campaign, he is expected to
select a strictly Democratic cabi-
net. He will reward the Republic

From All Sections
Mr.. Roosevelt's cabinet will be a
representative one in that it will
draw from all sections of the
country. The professional cabinet

lily, or two at the outside. One In

toned, for secretary of commerce.

learned, can have the pick of any
position. He is expected to be the
bright star of the Roosevelt adj
ministration. If he shows a diSin-
clination to leave his business con-
nections. he will be drafted" for
secretary of state or secretary of
treasury.
