Washington reports tease possible White House cabinet reshuffle as President FDR weighs shifting roles. Names floated include Secretary of Commerce candidates like Marriner Eccles and Leon Henderson, Labor, Agriculture, and State options, plus tentative posts for Tobin, Winant, and Byrnes. Kaiser plans a merchant fleet push to compete with West Coast shipping and open markets in the Orient. Navy reshuffle aims to elevate Struve Hensel and install John Sullivan as Undersecretary, trimming banker leadership.
