CUTTING DECIDES
AGAINST CABINET
New Mexican Believes He
May Be of Greater Service
in Senate.
Rx the Associated Press

By the Associated Press.
Senator Bronson Cutting, independ-
ent New Mexico Republican, was rep
resented by friends on Capitol Hill yes
terday as having decided against ac-
cepting a Roosevelt cabinet cffer in the
belief he would be of greater service in
the Senate.
One of the stanchest admirers and
supporters CT Mr.. Roosevelt, for whom
he spoke in the campaign, Cutting him
self maintained an absolute silence as
to whether he had been offered or had
declined the portfolio Of Secretary Of
the Interior
Post His for Taking.
It was generally understood in in
formed quarters, however, that the cab
that he had declined, feeling he could
do more for the administration, the
Nation and his State by continuing his
Senate service.
The question as to whom Mr.. Roose-
welt now would turn for a Secretary of
the Interior drew into speculation again
the names of Gov. Dern of Utah and
Joseph C. O'Mahoney of Cheyenne
Wyo. With Cutting considered def
nitely out of the picture, they were
the most frequently mentioned.
There was considerable speculation
in some quarters that John B. Elliott
of California might become Secretary
of the Interior and O'Mahoney either
an Assistant Secretary or remain in
leading position with the Democratic
National Committee.
Cutting Remained Silent.
To newspaper men, Cutting said any
comment about his status must come
from the incoming Executive. His only
statement throughout the weeks of
speculation in which his name has fig
ured has been that "one should feel
highly honored" to be considered a
cabinet possibility.
Cutting, long friend of Mr.. Roose-
velt, Is just few days more than half
through his first term in the Senate.
He has identified himself with the lib
eral, independent element since his ar
rival in Congress.
He Is publisher Of the Santa Fe New
Mexican and now is in his 45th year.

JAPAN TO REJECT REPORT.

Japanese delegation today prepared a
declaration rejecting the Manchurian
report which, their spokesmen say, will
be delivered to the League of Nations
secretariat as soon as the Committee of
l9 present the report to the assembly
on Tuesday.
The Manchurian report, made public
yesterday, condemned Japan's military
activities in the province and re-
affirmed China's right to sovereignty.
1t bound the powers not to recognize
the state of Manchukuo.
In the face of Toxic reports, League
chiefs were discussing measures to be
taken If and when Japan withdraws
her delegation from Geneva.
1t is likely that some unexpectedly
three months-will be permitted to
elapse before the next vital decisions
are taken involving concerted action
by League members, is the military
situation in the Far East does not
change. Officials are talking about
arms embargoes and the recall of
diplomatic representatives from Toxic,
but these, methods will not be adopted
without full deHberation on the con-
sequences.

MIAMI, Fla, February ia. Mitchell
Palmer, Attorney General in the Will
son cabinet, said in a statement here
tonight that passage by Congress of the
repeal resolution as sent to the House
by the Senate would "be a victory for
the drys and would mean long life for
the bootleggers" unless a time is fixed
for State conventions to ratify the
amendment.
The resolutions adoption, Palmer
said, would put the accomplishment Of
repeal far off into the future, and pos
sibly endanger the legality of the
amendment itself if it should be rati-
fed in this manner in SO States"
Article w Of the Constitution" Pal
mer SAD, provides for two distinct
methods of ratification; one by Legis-
latures Of and the other by conventions
in the States. The Constitution per-
mits the Congress to propose one or
the other mode, but the resolution as
passed by the Senate proposes both.
1T provides for conventions in the
States, but assumes that these conven-
tions shall be held at the will Of the
Legislatures. The Congress is entirely
without power to make this mixture of
constitutional methods.
IF Congress will simply Ak the time
when the conventions in the States
shall be held, the peoples mandate can
be carried out according to their will,
without interference from other bodies
which have received from the ConSti-
tuition no power to interfere"

Vigorous Defense of
Enlisted Men.
Calls Veterans Administra-

Its Reorganization.

Army "non-coms, threatened with
13 per cent pay cut under a pro-
posal in Congress for elimination of
their re-enlistment bonus, today learned
they will have an aggressive cham
pion from their own ranks at the
Capitol after March A.
John H. Hoeppel, Democratic Rep
resentative-elect from the twelfth dis
trict of California, and former dough-
boy overseas, came forward today in
vigorous defense of the Army's enlisted
men, whose pay now IS being consid-
cred by congressional conferees.
In an interview he pointed out that
if economy plans go through, "the
lowest paid men in the Government
service will receive the highest pay
cut"
Non-ccmmissioned officers in the
first three grades. he said, will suffer
not only the legislative pay slash of
1-3 per cent. but an additional cut
OF more than / per cent by abolish
ment Of the re-enlistment gratuity.
Privates receiving $21 a month, he
stated, will receive a total reduction
of 10 per cent

Hoeppel offered to give to the Com
munity Chest his retirement pay as a
former commissioned offoS' "if
10 per cent OF the veterans and widows
in Los Angeles who have incomes of
more than $4,000 will also donate the
gratuities they receive from the Vet
erans' Administration to a similar
charity"
Decision as to elimination of re-en-
Hstment bonuses today was in the
hands Of House and Senate confereeS.
Hoeppel said that retired enlisted
men who served as officers during the
World War already are receiving a pay
deduction of 81-3 per cent, "due to
what is considered an unfair decision
of the controller" An additional cut
of 81a per cent is in prospect unless
a Senate amendment to the economy
bill is deleted by the conferees, he de-
clared. This means, he said, that
"decrepit and disabled retired men will
suffer loss of 1928 per cent"
