PXflE TWO' fEDFCRD TATL THTBUNT!, fEDFORD, OTTEGO??, FRIDAY. SEPTEMBER 30, 1938. 'Staid State Department Is Given Streamlining9 By HARRY W. FRANTZ, (United Press Staff Correspondent.) WASHINGTON, Sept. 29. (UP) The once staid old state department has been "streamlined" to meet the changing needs of a swiftly-moving world, and diplomatic observers remark its added speed and efficiency. Secretary of State Cordell Hull hu caused little commotion aa be ao - compllshed the modernisation of the oldest and presumably most conserv ative of the 10 great governmental departments. He has effected extra ordinary changes In the Internal and external mechanism of the national policy through the medium of de part mental orders. The archaic granite bulk of the state department building has caused the public customarily to think of this department aa relatively back ward among the other hurtling or danisms of the "Kew Deal." Careful examination suggests, however, that "state" has become the most "mod era" of the departments. In the sense that Its organisms have been adapted to meet functionally the problems of a changing world that operates by radio, air mat), the swift Interchange of goods, and mass pub lie opinion. Latest evidence of the modern trend In the department was the establishment of a division of in ternal communications, to attend to International aspects of . problems connected with telecommunications radio, cable, telegraph and tele phoneaviation and shipping. Ex perts In aviation, telecommunica tions, and shipping will centralize the handling of these phases of United States foreign relation!. Chief of the new division Is Thomas Burke, formerly head of the specialties division of the depart ment of commerce. Before the "New Deal" he was engaged In business In Latin-America and Europe. Jesse E, Sauffstad was appointed assistant chief. Second of the newly-created dlvl- slons which has deeply impressed International observers Is the divi sion of cultural relations, to be di rected by Dr. Ben M. Cherrlngton, formerly chairman of . the depart ment of Internatlal relations In the University of Denver. This division meets the rising need for an agency to strengthen Unted atates cultural and Intellec tual relations with other countries, and corresponds to the world-wide belief that governments must afford points of helpful contact between the peoples of various countries, as, fir example, through literature, art. music, and exchange of professors and students. The Immediate duty of thla divi sion will be to accomplish admin istrative tasks that grew out of the convention for the promotion of Inter-American cultural r e 1 a-t 1 o n s adopted at the Buenos Aires peace conference. A third Important recent admin istrative shift Inside the state de partment related to the various re search and editorial groups. Dr. Hunter Miller, formerly the histori cal adviser, was designated editor of treaties. Carlton Savage, formerly the assistant hostorlo&l advisor, was designated assistant to the counselor of the department of state, and charged with the research studies In matters relating to the formula tion and execution of foreign poli cies. The office of the geographer was placed under supervision of the chief or the division of research and publications. At Secretary Hull's Instance, con gress authorised establishment of an office known aa counsellor of the department of state. In thla of fice R. Walton Moore, former con gressman, serves as Intimate ad visor to the secretary of state on Important policy matters. Secretary Hull's administration has also witnessed the steady reorgani sation and strengthening of "for eign service of the United States." Intended to put this country's ex ternal affairs as far as practicable upon a non -political and profession al basis. j The United States now maintains ! between 700 and 800 career officers In about 400 political and commer- j clal centers.

Flourshing Racket Is Found in Fake Trophies of Head Hunters PHILADELPHIA (UP) M any of the shriveled human heads sold to scientists and tourists as the. victims of the head-hunting Jlvaro Indians of Ecuador are fakes, according to Dr. Harry B. Wright, Philadelphia explorer and dentist. Racketeers obtain the heads of per sons who died natural deaths and palm them off as the genuine article, according to Dr. Wright, who re turned recently from his sixth expe dition to South America. The explorer cited a Guayaquil man who obtained heads from rela tives of dead persons by paying the coet of burial. He said, however, that the government of Ecuador was stamping out the practice. The imitation relics frequently In clude heads of white persons whom. Dr. Wright asserted, the Indians never molest. The dentist-explorer returned from his expedition with three of the shrunken heads, one of which, he said, Is genuine. For six months dur ing the summer he lived with the Jlvaros. He also brought with him 14 na tive remedies, which he hopes may be of some use to modern medical science. One of the remedies It a snake-bite cure which saved the Phil adelphia n's life when a bush master cut a double wound In bis foot after biting through his leather boot.
