COMMISSION PERSONNEL CHANGES MAY GO OVER UNTIL AUGUST
Due to the fact that Commissioner Paul Walker has gone to his home in Oklahoma and probably because of the absence from the city of Postmaster General Farley , who generally approves patronage positions, it is believed that further major changes in personnel at the Federal Communications Commission will not be made before August 15th.
This will no doubt include the appointment of aides by Paul Spearman, General Counsel, Herbert L. Pettey, Secretary, and the position of Director of the Broadcasting Division. Also the question as to whether or not Dr. C. B, Jolliffe will be appointed to Chief Engineer of the Commission still remains in status quo. Regardless of the political angle, it is not believed any important appointments will be acted upon during the absence of Commissioner Walker.
