Marshall Takes Office As U.S. Secretary Of State; Presidential Talk Squelched New Chief Says He Will Not Be Available As Democratic Candidate; Truman, Byrnes Present For Ceremony in Nation's Capital Washington, Jan. 21 V.P.) Gen. George C. Marshall took office as secretary of state today after bluntly squelching speculation that he might be available later as a democratic candidate for president. Whatever his feelings about political office, the moment Marshall took oath as secretary of state he became heir to the office of president should anything happen to President Truman in the next two years. 1 here being no vice president, the secretary of state is now first lp the line of succession. Marshall took the oath of office as successor to James P. Byrnes from Chief justice Fred M. Vinson in President Truman's executive office.

When he "finally emerged from Hie nrixjztta taf thn fit-f- thlncr Marshall did was to give reporters j the oral statement in which he! i stated uneouivocallv that he could not be drafted for any political of fice. Ends Speculation He said that he thought "now is as good a time and place as any to terminate speculation" on his future political activities. "I am assuming that the office of secretary of state, at least un der present conditions is non-political and I am going to govern myself accordingly," Marshall said. "I will never become involved in political matters and therefore I cannot be considered a candidate for political office. "There is a popular conception that no matter what a man says he can be drafted for some politi cal office." General Emphatic But Marshall then added em phatically: "I cannot be drafted for any political office." Marshall was asked by a report er if. he referred to reports that he might be considered a can didate for president. "No, I mean any political of fice," the general replied.

Volstead, whose prohibition act made the 18th amendment effec tive, died at the age of 87, a be liever to the end in the anti-liquor law which made the U. S. "dry" for 14 years. Volstead, whose fight against alcohol skyrocketed him almost overnight from a congressional back bencher to international fame, died late yesterday after he had been seriously ill for three months. With him at his death was his daughter, Mrs. Carl J. Lomen of Seattle, his only survivor. A native of Minnesota, Vol stead served as a republican for 20 years in congress before he was defeated in 1922 by the Rev. O. J. Kvale, a farmer-labor can didate who described himself as "drier than Volstead." Returns To Practice After he was defeated for re election, Volstead returned to Granite Falls to private practice as a country lawyer. Failing health forced his retirement in 1943, and In the last years preced ing his death, his activities had been limited largely to gardening and reading.
