Ocean Floor Samples Sought
By Means of Depth Explosions

the coming cruise after explaining the
trip from which the Atlantis had just
returned was chiefly biological in
character.
Iselin declared the object of the last
trip was to sample "the population of
the ocean from the surface to the
bottom and at the same time study
the water for its dissolved chemicals
with the purpose of seeing if we can
correlate the distribution of fsh and
the chemicals at various levels.
I'VE want to determine whether the
living processes Of the animals affect
the water or whether the water af-
fects the animals. You know, there is
very little oxygen at depth OF about
900 meters"
Iselin, tall and broadshouldered, is
overseeing the institution during the
absence in Europe OF its director, DR..
Henry B. BigeloW. He talked en-
Enthusiastically about his work and that
Of his associates, and their discoveries
about the oceans floor and creatures
which inhabit the sea.
The Atlantis has made ST cruises
since the institution was established
in 1880 and has averaged about 10000
miles annually. She Is 142 feet long
and carries regular crew Of II, with
quarters for six scientists.

CUMMINGS LIKES
REED FOR JUSTICE
Attorney General Holds Him
Qualified for "Any" Post.
EVades Endorsement.

Availability OF Solicitor General
Stanley Reed for the Supreme Court
post vacated by Justice Willis Van
Devanter was stressed today In a
cryptic statement by Attorney Gen.
eral Cummings at his press conference.
During discussion OF the Supreme
Court situation, Cummings was asked
If he still held to a previous opinion
that Reed is qualified to hold any
position" the Nation might offer.
Il certainly do" Cummings said
emphatically. More than. ever-and
you can quote me on that"
Asked if this could be taken as an
Endorsement of Reed for appointment
to the Supreme Court, the Attorney
General quickly pointed out that he
could not be put in the position Of
indorsing anybody.
Cummings original expression re-
garding Reeds qualifications was
made at the time the Government
lawyer was under consideration for
appointment as Solicitor General.
Reed has carried most OF the burden
OF the Governments battles before the
Supreme Court in behalf of New Deal
policies.
At the same time, it was learned
that Cummings will reply before the
end OF the week to President Roose-
velts request for an opinion on the
validity Of recess appointment to the
Supreme Court.
Cummings, 1t was disclosed, has
gone far back into legal records to
STUDY precedents in connection with
recess appointments to the bench. 1t
Is understood he has found numerous
instances in which lower judges have
been given recess appointments, with
the provision that no salary be paid
them until confirmation of the NOM
nation by the Senate
In cases where confirmation was re-
fused. the records show, Congress
usually passed special act to reim-
burse the judge for his services under
the recess appointment.

ACTION EXPECTED
ON NOMINATIONS
Senate Is Scheduled to Con-
slider Social Security
Posts.

The Senate was scheduled to act
today on the nominations of Al ex-
perts and attorneys Of the Social Sc
curity Board, approved yesterday by
the Appropriation Committee, thus
paving the way for them to draw pay
held up since July /.
Approval Of the nominations was
anticipated, but the fate Of IL other
board employees whose names still are
before the committee was uncertain.
Included in these are three KEY ON
cials of the board-Frank K. Bane.

tor Of the Bureau of Old-Age Benefits
This trio was appointed from Vir-

to the 1882 independent Offices ap-
preparation providing that no salary
payments should be made to experts
and attorneys drawing $4,000 or more
annually until they had been nom-
mated by the President and con-
f1rmed by the Senate. damned

eligible to retain the positions which in
many cases they had held for months
Senate displeasure with employment
policies at the board, where experts
and attorneys are exempt from civil
service, are repeatedly responsible for
the amendment, which kept the So
persons from drawing any pay on the
regular pay day July Is and threatens
to do the same for the / Saturday
Just how many Of the group will fail
eventually of the approval, or just how
they will get paid for the time they
have put in since July /, also are ques-
tions to be decided.
Meanwhile the imminent expira-
ton Of the term Of Vincent Miles a
member of the board. is stirring specu-
lation whether President Roosevelt will
make one or two appointments to the
agency. which has been on a two-man
basis since the first OF the year, when
John G. Winant resigned. Miles time
will be up August II.
There was feeling in some quarters
that President Roosevelt had delayed
filling the Winant vacancy pending a
disposition of the governmental re-
organization bill under which social
security would be abolished as an inde-
pendent agency and put under the pro-
posed new welfare department. In
view OF the fact that the organization
is dead for the time being, however it
