I: WASHINGTON, Nov. S. Sev
eral changes in the cabinet by
next spring are looked for . in
Washington as a result of reports
that some members Intend to re
tire to private life for personal
reasons and a belief that Presi
dent Coolidge after next March 4
will prefer a cabinet entirely of
his own selection. .
Upon assuming the presidency
after the death of President Har
ding, Mr. Coolidge requested all
members of the cabinet not to
submit their resignations. While
he has made no such request with
the approach of a term of four
years to which he has been elec
ted by vote of the people, he has
neither asked for nor received in
any way resignations of- members
of the present cabinet.
Several To Stay
It is expected that he will'urge
successfully several members ot
the present cabinet to continue in
office after his inauguration in
March. Although Secretary
Hughes is understood to have-in
dicated to friends that he would
prefer for private ' heasons to re
turn to the practice or 'law it Is
the general view that the secre
tary of state will continue at hit
post for a year, if not longer,
while Secretary Mellon and
Hoover, as well as Attorney Gen
herc;Work;;ecretaryptjrthe In
terior, has intimated to friends ht
wishes to retire. Mrs. Work re
cently died end he is known to
have felt the shock very severely
Weeks Shy Leave
"While Secretary Weeks Is close
to the administration and regard
ed as the man for the office,
friends report that he. too. be
cause of 111 health and .for .per
sonal reasons would like to step
out of official life.
There uro also persistent ru
mors that Secretary Wilbur is
being considered for a federal
judgeship in California.- He came
from the bench to head the navy
department but is one of the two
members of the present " cabinet
selected by Mr. Coolidge
The post office' department port
folio, long regarded as an office
for the president's campaign man
ager, is mentioned as a post that
may be offered to William M
Butler, chairman of ' the republi
