Expectation was current at the

that the President might act
within the next week or ten days

mission left by the recent death
Of Commissioner George r. Wales,
It was felt that Roosevelt would
probably name his appointee be-
fore Congress convenes, and in
such event the nomination might
be looked for shortly.
The opinion is still general
that q career man" of Repub-
lican affiliations will be chosen,
and no new names have been
added to the list Of receptive can
didates lately. It is felt that a
rank and file Government en-
ploye has q good chance to get
the post.
Harry B. Mitchell, president of
the commission, returned this
week from an inspection trip of
Western Civil Service districts,
and Mrs. Lucille B. McMillin, the
other member, will leave shortly,
it is understood, for New York

On the other hand, she pointed
