He i didn’t want to retire Attorney Gen eral Daugherty or Secretary of the j Navy Denby. Their resignations i ; wer" forced on the two officials '! themselve?, by pressure of public ! i opinion.

Secretary Mellon, for one, is ab his dictation is gratefully received. President Coolidge’s utterances on money matters are much admired In financial circles. Melon’s their author, so gossips say. Nobody tells Secretary Hoover anything about the commerce de partment. He tells others. For in stance, in the midst of all that talk abyut the president’s “firm pblicy” ! in lh< row between the coal opera > tori: and miners, this bit of infor i n rtion leaked out —in reality the ! president had no such thing 1 as a I lute boss of the .treasury. He asks j nobody’s advice. He dictates and ! strike—he’d do whatever Hoove ; told him to do. “More business in I government and less government in I business” is the Hooveresque origin too. i Secretary of State Hughes was ; another department head who wai i very “sot” in his ways.

He named Jardine because he fitted this poli cy, not to evolve one of his own.

Secretary of the Interior Work and Postmaster General New aren’t so obviously depend* rt on th. 1 White Ho'use as. Wilbur and Sar gent but they keeq to admini.-trai ion policies without attempting to shape them. Secretary Davis invented the labor department’s policy and the administration seems to be suit, ed with it. Immigration restriction on the present basis, only more of it, is its keystone.
