Commissioners recess appointments on
November IA and they have since been

the appointees have been received and
that he may have an opportunity to-
morrow to present the nominations to
the District Committee members for
action.
Miss Bentley Not Included.
The nominations were included in a
long list Of officials and officers OF the
various military services who received
appointments or promotions during the
period that Congress was not in ses-
sion.
In the list, however was not the
name Of Miss Fay Bentley, who several
months ago was appointed by the Presi-
dent to be judge of the Juvenile Court

qualified for this post. Miss Kathryn

Juvenile Court, raised the legal question
that she would not relirquish the Office
until her successor had been confirmed.
