[Tugwell successor?, Washington, D.C. Oct. 8. Rumors in Washington have Rexford G. Tugwell shorn of his power in the Resettlement Administration in favor of Lieut. Col. Phillip B. Folming, former PWA official and director of the Passamaquoddy tide-harnessing project. Although RA officials denied a change has been mad, Col. Fleming has brought his secretary and assistants with him to the new job. Col. Fleming has a wide reputation as a technical expert and executive. In 1933 Col. Fleming was assigned personally by President Roosevelt to assist Secretary of the Interior Ickes in setting up the $3,300,000,000 Public Works Administration]
