WASHINGTON. July 28. President
Roosevelt has quietly started to re
vise his Inner circle line-up. The
biggest part of
the Job will not
be completed un
til after congress
quits, but you
can see the firs',
signs of It be
hind the assign
ment of Charles
West as assistant
secretary of in
terior. It Is an open
secret at the
white House Motu
that Mr. West's r.ux MALLON
success as a llason officer with .on.
grcss was not outstanding. This Is
not a reflection on Mr. West. He
Is a good conciliator, but only with
gentlemen and not with wolves. What
the White House needed for that Job
was a lon-tamer. This function now
Is being served by Vice-President
Garner, even to the extent that Sen
ate Floor Iader Robinson can be
spared occasionally for a few speeches
back home. t
At the same time, there seemed to
be need for a llason officer "between
the White House and the Interior de
partment. Recent misunderstandings
there have not been so conspicuous
as those with congress, but are suf
ficiently Important to engage Mr.
West's talents.
Incidentally. Mr. West will be In
line for the secretaryship If Mr. Iefces
ever decides to take a Judgeship.
Form.
A similar explanation lies behind
the Virgin Islands shakeup. The
White House did not care for the
way things were going, decided to
get rid of Governor Fearson and
Judge Wilson. The shakeup was ar
ranged diplomatically so that every
one would save his face while losing
his official head. Mr. Roosevelt even
went to the extent of lifting a let-,
ter from what Is now known as his
"kiss of death," form letter A-l, ex
pressing his deep appreciation of the
services of those who must depart.
Incidentally, the Justice depart
ment was not as sorry as It pretend
ed to be in making a place for Gov
ernor Ponrson on the parole board.
Authorities there had long been hon
ing to make a place for someone on
that board.
Discontent.
If you will piece these Incidents
together and couple them with others
like the recent transfer of capable
Assistant Commerce Secretary Dick
inson to the Justice department, you
will have a hint of a changing Inner
condition here within your plain
sight.
President Roosevelt is reshuffling
his Jacks and queens. He has not
come to the cabinet kings yet. In
fact, there are evidences of disin
clination to go into that situation
very vigorously In the face of the
very warm political situation which
Is developing.
But deeper than these thing, it
discloses a fundamental dissatisfac
tion at the top with the way things
have been going: also a desire tc re
vise and rcbolster the new deal in
the matter of personnel.
Pre pa rations.
Those closest to the securities and
exchange commission keyhole noted
some time ago that Chairman Ken
nedy was making a few personal
preparations to get back to private
business, probably in the fall. Lately

Judge to "be reasonable."
Asked If he had anything to say,

I'm Innocent. This la a terrible thing
for me after 27 years In thla Busi
