Garden Groups to Meet
AppointmentOf
Grueniing Waits

WASHINGTON - Appointment
Of DR.. Ernest Gruening to be gov
ernor of Alaska has been post
poned temporarily because of the
protests of his close friend, An
thony Dimond, delegate from
Alaska. President Roosevelt in
dicated yesterday.
Dimond, who represents the ter
ritory of Alaska in congress, be-
lieves the governor of Alaska
should be resident. When Roose-
welt nominated Gruening last
August, Dimond protested "on
principle" The nomination never
was submitted to the senate and
thus expired.
Asked whether Dimond's pro-
tests would have any weight in
determining the choice of a new
governor, Roosevelt said at his
press conference the subject should
be brought up again in a month
or two.
