New York, Feb 23.-(UP)-Wil- liam H. Woodin, newly appointed secretary of the treasury in the Roosevelt cabinet, said today that his poIicies until after the in- auguration would be to "saw wood and keep quiet"
 Besieged for interviews, and his particular statements of policy on imitation versus "sound money" Woodin received some 30 news paper men this morning and genially but flatly refused to dis cuss these or any other fiscal mat ters.
 banking and finance. he chatted pleasantly of his brief newspaper experience when. as a young man, he acted as correspondent for the New York Herald and London Times in the Near East, witness ing Armenian massacres and "al- most going with Kitchener to Khartoum."
 He revealed that 1t was his friendship for Al Smith that caused his breaking from the republican to the democratic ranks in 1923. But asked to discuss the remoneti- zation of silver, Woodin merely said:
 "Oh, no, no, couldn't say any thing about that. You will under stand that I cannot talk about any such matter now"
 Widely known as musician and composer, Woodin remarked that he had heard that Austin Chamber lain. British chancellor of the ex- chequer, was also a musician. and suggested that "this might result in some harmony"
 But he added that from now on I will probably be more inter- ested, in Federal Reserve notes than in musical 'notes."
 He had luncheon today with Sec retary of the Treasury Ogden L.. Mills at the Federal Reserve bank here and will spend the afternoon at the bank with Mills in the reg ular Thursday meeting of the board of directors of which he is a member. He will go to Hyde Park Saturday to join President-elect elect Roosevelt and will go to Washington Sunday ito look over the treasury"

 Mir Roosevelt conferred with Far

 waded through matters of policy and patronage with scores of

 Political observers thought Mir Z Roosevelt would name Frank Murphy of Wheaton, Minn., as- sistant secretary of agriculture; Daniel J. Tobin, of Indianapolis, Ind, assistant to Miss Frances Perkins in the labor department. and Archibald McNeil. democratic national committeeman of Connec- ticut, as assistant secretary of the navy.
 An assistant secretaryship will also be found for Vincent Astor, according to discussion in well-in- formed circles. It was on Astor's yacht Nourmahal that the presi- dent-elect spent his recent vaca- ton.
