'Bona- fide California license

NKW Y0KK, Jan. 17.
The favorite sport now of all
newspapers nnd politicians
is picking out Mr. Iloovcr's
cabinet for him. Anybody
that has ever endorsed n cig
arette has been named to be
on it. I don 't
care h 0 w
in any -at
these "write
up" cabinets
y o 11 li .1 v e
picked 0 . Ii
the' only one
that' is going ' to draw any
salary is tllo one Mr. Hoover
picks himself. I ft; is gqjng
to fool you when he picks
his "all . American." He is
going to have so many busi
ness moil on- there that I10
will make politicians wish
they had taken up some oth
er life' Yours,
"'Wttit; ROGERS.
