W- Roberts Washington, Afig. 31.?Washington? is a topic of cqtnmon gossip, is UgOT, liscussing the future diaintegratfim )f the cabinet of "supermen," with ho same interest and assurance* fnit Washington disctfssed some months igo, its organization. Briefly, ii, is inderstood that:' (1) Secretary Mellon of the departnent of the treasury, finds the finan:ial affairs of the govemntent less ineresting than his own, and that as, soon as the pending^, fiscal legislation s completed, he wiD'ask to be pernitted to return. to the field of perlonal operation. * ^2) Harry M. Daugherty, attorney general of the" United States, will, in he near future Sffer his resignation o the president, and return to private iractice, as result of which he hopes ;o accumulate a fortune against old ige. (3) Herbert Hoover, secretary of ommoron 4c nnf uuf icfinrl u;if n Kio nn.1 iortunity of rendering vital and specacular service as the head of a com>arative!y minor department, and that 'or his attitude as a "mute inglorious Hilton," , he holds the chief executive n part" responsible. The Mellon report iq denied, but It s a matter of disculsion just the tame. It is said that Hoover is not 'sqre" with the president, but that he ones for an operation in which he tolas practically unlimited power. He b sponsoring Henty Ford as a biddei 'or the government's properties as Huscle Shoals, and fa said to be chafng. under ths dw of the secretary >f war in reaching a Conclusion. It Ib regar^ed/as true that the atomey general- will retire. He is 65 rears of age, and it was generally unlerBtbodWrom the beginning that ne Vould not complete his term. He will letum to a large practice with the prestige of having served as attorneymoral of the United. States*. As a aember of the Harding cabinet, he ms been regarded as the chief polit-' eal adviser. He scored a success in Jato field.; far supfrior t6 that of AJK.rt BurWson who played the same olfj in tne cabinet hf President Wilion. ^ As successor to Mr. Daugherty, Guy 'or the United States shipping board, ind is now assistant attorney gen sral. In this connection, . Secretary lughes of the state department is said o be entirely satisfied. Hf! is perhaps ;he most important figure in Wasnngton. In the beginning, however, t was regarded as certain that he would ask for relief as soon, as the tdministration got_ well under "sail." Notice to Wm. Wallace Chapter U. D. C. The time for sending in papers to the Historical Department, U. D. C., las been extended to September 20.
