Washington -- Everyone who visits Mir Roosevelt goes away happy. This ability to impress peo- pie with his enthusiastic interest his full sympathy and his intention of helping is one of the most re- markable things about the presi- dent-elect.
 Newspapermen after stories - which they don't get, politicians after promises - which are not made, business men seeking as- surances-which are not given, all seem to fall under the spell of this consummate politician who can deal shrewdly yet with 8 warm, hu- man understanding which con- yinces them that their case IS In the best possible hands.
 "He has good heart" reported an intelligent American Indian who recently told Roosevelt the troubles of his race.
 The rambunctious Huey Long, the pugnaciously nationalistic Hiram Johnson, the idealistic, fighting George Norris, who now expects his Muscle Shoals dream to come true, the progressives, La- Toilette and Cutting, who urged federal famine relief at Warm Springs, are as enthusiastic after their conferences as the most hide- bound reactionary democrats who cover the president-elect with sweet butter In the hope of future patronage and other favors. They all beam as they leave the great mans presence.
 Most of the country also seems happy about the imminent change in administration, sharing the feeling of those who have talked with Roosevelt that bene- ficial new deal is at hand. One need not be unduly snooty or both to bring up the many in. stances in which Roosevelt will have to make enemies if he takes a position, in order to wonder how long this honeymoon Is going to last. The awful fate of MT Hoover is so recent that you can't help speculating.

We can't quite understand why there should only be one dissenting voice in Con- neetcuts ratification of the lame duck con- stitutional amendment. One lone senator declared that he could nothvote for the amendment since he did not know his constituents viewpoin upon it. Under such circumstances we should think that he would abide by majority opinion. And with the House having passed the amendment unan
 imously one day before the Senate did, eer- tainly he knew how his fellow representa- tives had voted. If on the other hand the senator was actuated because of previous opposition by this state to constitutional amendments he insnuates that we are living in the past and not the present. What Con- necticut did when it voted on the 18th or 9th or l7th or any previous amendments is history. We are living in the present and looking toward the future. There remain only four states to make ratification of the 10th amendment unanimous. Three of these states have legislatures now in session and it is not boosting to say that they will all approve.

Our Daily Washington Letter
Nation Waits for Roosevelt
BY RODNEY BUTCHER

right up to the crash Q year later. And, whereas, Hoover stepped in. to office at the very height of the prosperity period with apparently little to worry about, Roosevelt takes the helm in the most serious economic storm of our history with an unprecedented number of enormous problems dead ahead. No one has any business begrudg- ing him the hope, confidence and good will of the nation which he possesses as he starts out.
 Lately there has been much fuss here about Roosevelt's Huey Long problem (somehow that mans name pops up every time 6 fellow tries to write) and 1t must be admitted that if Roosevelt solves, Huey easily the confidence In his ability to handle other prob- lems will be increased.
 He probably will. He might try stepping on the Kingfish, but the sort of thing he does will be dem onstrated if he keeps his finger on Huey, retains his support and makes him Q help rather than Q hindrance.
 After March fourth there will be an early fight to unseat Joe Robin son of Arkansas as democratic leader in the senate. The progress sives don't like Joe and they may look to Roosevelt to help them de- mote him. Certainly Huey will start a terrific fight on Robinson. who happens to be his especial hate. Already he has damaged the Arkansas leader considerably.
 There have been various guesses as to just when Joe would double up his fists and start trying to wipe up the senate floor with Huey--lit- erally, not figuratively. Joe has a reputation as a fist-fighter who drops his man.

CROSS PLAN
(New Britain Herald)

(New Britain Herald)
 Governor Cross has a plan to aid the cities and towns that goes down to bedrock. As a funda- mental requirement he would have all cities begin their fiscal years when the first tax installment falls due and thus be in a position to do less borrowing on tax anticipation warrants. Other details of his plan include uniform accounting and budget terminology so that finan- cial statements of the cities can be readily compared.
 The plan would permit cities to issue bonds in excess of the per cent limit for funding indebtedness and otherwise providing for tenn porary loans in emergencies. A plan to relieve municipalities from the financial stress of providing unemployment relief is included. The governors ideas. incorpor- ated in the bill submitted by Sem ator C0oney of Hartford. is a far reaching document which if enact- ed into law will go much further in preventing receiverships for mu- nicipalities than the plan of the Municinal League.

comes difficult to find wall space for them all, particularly if there are frequent changes - witness Theodore Roosevelt and his seere- taries of the navy who numbered six or seven.
 The changes in the Hoover cab- inet have been relatively few. The most important, but not the first. was the retirement of MT Mellon as secretary of the treasury to be succeeded by the younger and more active MT Mills, who as un- dersecretary had come to do much of the direction of the department and its policies. The first change had come when, following the death of Secretary of War J. W. Good, who for many years had been Q congressman from Iowa, Patrick J. Hurley of Oklahoma be- came secretary of war on Decem- Der 9. 1929.
 After having served as secretary of labor under Harding, Coolidge and Hoover, that famous member of the Order of Moses, James J. Davis left the cabinet in Decembee 1890, to enter the senate. His cab. inet successor was William N Doak of Virginia. More recentl1 Robert Patterson Lamont of Hi. nois has been succeeded as secres tary of commerce by Roy D. Cha. pin of Michigan. The other original Hoover cabinet appointees are stick ing with the administration to the end: Henry l.. Stimson of New York as secretary of state, Wils liam. D. Mitchell of Minnesota as attorney-general, Walter F. Brown of Ohio as postmaster-generals Charles F. Adams of Massachu. setts as secretary of the navy, Ray Lyman Wilbur of California as secretary of the interior, and Ar. thur M. Hyde of Missouri as sec retary of agriculture.
 When MT Stimson, who served for Q time as secretary of war under Taft 20 years ago, had his portrait painted for that depart ment, hes chose to be pictured in riding clothes with crop in his hand. How he and the other merl- bers of the Hoover cabinet will now elect to be painted Is some thing that tn, Washington dis patches have not revealed. But tr Is at least to be assumed that Post master General Brown will choose not to be represented to future generations in the high silk har which made 1t necessary for nim to buy a new automobile at govern ment expense and caused imponte democrats to make unappreciative remarks about federal economy.

PARIS, January 10-The newspaper

Hoover had linked reparations and war
debts in his moratorium whether he
wanted to do SO or not.

Washington after had conferred with

he said This formula cannot be in
terpreted but in one sense-intergov-
ernmental obligations included repara-
tons as well as interallied debts.
Whether Mr.. Hoover wished it OF
not, he allied those two problems in his
famous moratorium. Our communicate
allied them once again. And now you
see what an enormous Importance
it had.
II refused to accept the Hoover
moratorium and demanded that the
Germans pay the unconditional portion
of the reparations to the Bank for In
ternational Settlements It was only
then that I accepted the moratorium
BY this fact reparations were placed
above interallied debts

are concerned, we recognize that prior
