...well in mind that Theodore Goldsmith Joslin, longtime Washington newsgatherer, was chosen to succeed George Akerson (who also was a journalist) as chief White House secretary and spokesman. Secretary Joslin was credited in last week's stories with manufacturing news tid-bits to put President Hoover in a warm light, inducing him to do more new and friendly things for their publicity value.
