IMPORTANT POSTS
Studies Field in Preparing
Messages on Department
Reorganization.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
Busy looking over the field for men
to fill important vacancies in the Gov
eminent service, President Hoover has
on hand a couple of messages to Con-
gress which he will not send up until
the time seems right
They deal with the reorganization
of Government departments-this OBJ
ject Mr.. Hoover has long sought and
hopes to achieve under the economy
demands of the period-and with the
general question of law enforcement.
Prohibition does not get special at
tention in the latter.
The immediate presidential task is to
line up successors for Ambassador
Dawes at London, Ambassador Forbes
at Toxic and Theodore Roosevelt as
Governor Of Porto Rico Roosevelt al
ready has been appointed Governor
General Of the Philippines, succeeding
Dwight F. Davis, resigned. Dawes end
Forbes are expected to step out in
early Spring at tie latest.
Wealthy Men Requir ed.
One aspect involved in the ambassa-
dorships is that both require men of
wealth. Over and above the modest
salaries paid, the incumbents normally
have to spend around 100000
Most interesting development in re-
gard to the reorganization of Govern
ment departments is reported lack of
enthusiasm on the part of Mr.. Hoover
for consolidation of the War and Navy
Departments. Reasons given are that
1t would reduce his circle of cabinet ad-
visers to one; that two men of cabinet
ability would be required to run such
dissimilar activities as the Army and
Navy and such men would be harder to
attract to assistant secretaryships; and,
finally, that comparatively little depart
mental machinery could be eliminated
by putting the two together.
Working on Measure.
Congress, however, spurred by Demo-
cratic leaders, is working on bills to ef-
feet the junction. Speaker Garner is
all for it; Chairman Byrns of the Ap-
preparations Committee wrote one OF
the bills to effect it, In the past crea-
tion of single Department Of National
Defense has been urged largely to effect
a union of the Army and Navy aviation
activities. making the air force unit
to balance the force.
Bankruptcy law changes, strongly
urged by Solicitor General Thacher, and
the closing of avenues 70 escape justice
through the criminal appeal statutes
appear to be the chief recommendations
of the law enforcement message. The
two presidential papers probably Will
get to Congress when the domestic re-
construction program Is on Its way TO
completion.

A cold COR grippe) calls for
COLD remedy and nothing else. A

dozen things besides colds simply

nreuarations taken for colds are
really worse than taking nothing

A cold calls for internal treat

relief. They don't reach the seat Of
the trouble and they don't prevent

BY LEE HILLS
United Press Stan Correspondent


M'AL1STER, Okla, Nov. O.
Clusters of ramshackle houses,
plopped down like so many card
board boxes within stones throw
Of giant Stag piles, are incongruous
splotches in the heavily wooded,
rolling eastern Oklahoma hills.
Sad-eyed, scrawny women and
hungry children today hover list
lessly about cabin doors. Their men
folk are out Of work-not because of
the protracted coal strike in this
area, but because there would be no
work II they were not strikers.
They talk of wartime days, when
the heads of the family earned $3.50
to $40 or more day. Some old
timers believe the cycle will bring
back prosperity soon.
No Middle Group
Now, the miners say. operators
have the upper hand. Although
miners are not unanimous in be-
lieving unionization is the panacea
for their ills, large bloc of them
adhere to 1t as solution.
Sentiment has crystallized until
now there is no middle group.
Hatred has become almost a creed
In many of the families who haven't
had a dollar with which to buy
food in months.
How they subsist is a mystery.
A few have been thrifty enough to
grow gardens. But in such bleak
spots as the old Pocahontas mining
camp near Haileyville, there are no
gardens.
The pitiful phase of the situa-
ton Is That even if the strike is
settled, desperate conditions of
hundreds of families would not be
solved.
Too Many Men for Jobs
Asked if a complete victory for
the union would end unemployment
In the area, James Chg JIM Sui
Ivan, local labor leader, said:
No, there would be about 1900
men at Hartshorne and maybe 500
more who wouldn't have jobs. So
many have been thrown out of work
by loss of the coal business that
there's big surplus that will have
TO be cared for"
Here's the predicament," ex-
planned James Springer, veteran at
torney assigned here by Governor
w. H. Murray to prosecute mine
cases. IF all the mines we're fun
crew, not more than 1000 would
be employed, still leaving $500 men
out of work"
And" he added, this isn't a
strike, it's an invasion 1t is not
a fight between employer and en-
ploye. 1t partakes of the nature
of an invasion for the purpose of
forcing operators to recognize the
union" ral+s
Violence flares occasionally.
Picketing is rampant. Inhamma-
tory meetings, fights and street
brawls are frequent.
Even Children Are Bitter
Women sometimes wearing
miners caps join the men, and
even are more eloquent than men
in their vilif1cation.
Families that have lived neigh
bors for years no longer are on
speaking terms. Women toss in
suits over backyard fences. The
bitter feeling percolated down to
the school children at Pittsburg.
Word went around that two
teachers were wives of nonunion
workers. They were objects of jibes
from pupils, The superintendent
threatened expulsion Of any pupil
addressing the teacher in disre-
spectful manner.
A PittSburg church congregation
almost had an instruction because
one of the nonunion church leaders
brought in new pastor without
consulting the members.
