TEN MEDFORD (OREGON) MAM. TRIBUNE Wednesday. July 31, 1957 i Seattle Attorney Top Candidate As Secretary's Aide for Minerals Br A. ROBEEHT SMITH Mail Tribune Correipondeni Washington Secretary of Interior Fred A. Seaton is look ing for a new assistant secre tary for minerals whose appoint ment will bring Seaton close to a complete change in the top posts at Interior since he succeeded Douglas M c Kay. Cur rently being consid ered is George Kinnear, Eeat- bt smiu tie attorney who just completed a term as Republican state chairman for Washington state. Seaton is looking especially for a man who has no mining interests or ties which might compromise or handicap him as sub-cabinet official having jurisdiction over the nation's mining program. Kinnear is con sidered qualified on this and other grounds. The effect of this considera tion by Seaton is to obtain a man wtio would not have the back ground of McKay's choice for thii office, Felix Wormser, who was assistant secretary for min erals until his recent resigna tion. Effort Collapict Wormser was vice president of St. Louis Lead Co. and short ly before his appointment was actively working here in Wash ington in behalf of raising tariffs on lead and zinc. The effort col lapsed when President Eisen hower at that time opposed this idea during congressional con sideration of the extension of the reciprocal trade act. Just before Wormser left of fice, he finished drafting a new mining program which included higher tariff protection for the lead and zinc industries. The program, bearing the ad ministation's stamp of approval, many western senators and con gressmen of both parties who are fearful that lead and zinc mines in the mountain states will close down unless given some government help or pro tection from foreign imports. When McKay and Wormser was trying to find a new head of the Bureau of Mines in 1953. they picked Tom Lyon of Salt Lake City, who had to withdraw under critical fire when it was disclosed that he was drawing a $5,000 annual pension from Ana is more moderate than what Wormstr had hoped to put through. It is now before Con gress and has the support of conda Copper Co. Wormser at the time told Congress he hadn't realized Lyon was getting a pension from the big mining firm. Appointee Must Be 'Clean Seaton is searching for Worm ser's suctftessor with what ap pears to be more care to see that his appointee will be "clean as ? hound's tooth." Thus far he has' been successful in finding new men for Interior's highest posts, and none of them has come under fire as some of Mc Kay's selections did. Seaton's new assistant secre tary for fisheries. Ross Leffler, has won praise from the con servation groi ps that were so critical of many of the policies at Interior during McKay's term. The new assistant secre tary for public lands, Roger Ernest, has had none of the troubles that complicated the life of Wesley D'Ewart, McKay's choice who had to resign when the Senate, refused to confirm him. Clarence A. Davis is gone as undersecretary, replaced by Hatfield Chilson, wbo is making a favorable impression. The only remaining contro versial figure who remains from the McKay regime is Fred Aan dahl, assistant secretary for water and power. There have been unconfirmed reports that Seaton has wanted to ditch Aan dahl, but that the White House had not gone along with this. Aandahl strongly support's the original "partnership" power which embroiled him in many power controversies with public power groups. Quotes From the Mews By UNITBD PRESS Washington Robert T.
