small, toothpicklike legs waving In
the breezes and face which is so
small that 1t seems scarcely to be a

Democrats who months ago turned

two new assistants to Secretary Hull

and two other assistant secretaryships
have not been filled.
Undersecretary Arthur A. Ballantine
and James H. Douglas, Assistant Secre-

one vacant assistant SecretaryShip
there, which no move has been made
to fill, and the acting heads OF other
major bureaus-internal revenue COM

commissioner of industrial alcohol
were Republican appointees.
The Commerce Department is with
out a First Assistant Secretary since
julius Klein resigned, but Clarence
Young remains as assistant in charge
of aviation.
The assistant to Secretary of War
Dern has not been named. and posts
are vacant at the Justice Department.
Failure to fill many of these posts
has been attributed to the desire of
President Roosevelt to await the cul-
