Nominations For Supreme
Court and Diplomatic
Corps Also Planned Soon.
Washington, Dec. 29. UP)
President Roosevelt announced
today that he would name Dan
iel W. Bell, former acting bud
get director, to the vacant post
of undersecretary of the treasury.
At a press conference Mr.
Roosevelt said he would submit
the nomination to the senate
when congress assembles.
Bell now is an assistant to the
secretary of the treasury.
The president disclosed also
that a few days after congress
meets Jan. 3 he would send up
nominations to fill the vacancy
on the supreme court and posi
tions in the diplomatic corps.
Five diplomatic posts are vacant.
The names of Attorney Gen
eral Murphy and John D. Wick
hem of the Wisconsin supreme
court have figured prominently
in capitol speculation over a
successor to the late Justice
Pierce Butler. Both are mid
westerners and Catholics, as was
Butler.
The prospective new treasury
undersecretary is a native of
Kinderhook, 111. Now 48 years
old, he joined the treasury when
he was 20 as a civil service
clerical appointee in the office
of the United States treasury.
Bell was acting budget direc
tor until last April, when the
president gave the post to Har
old D. Smith.
