Appointments

President Eisenhower last week added these names to his official family:

P: Georgia's retired Democratic Senator Walter George as his special assistant (with the rank of ambassador) to be a presidential emissary to the North Atlantic Treaty Organization and adviser on "development and implementation of bipartisan foreign policy." Salary: $20,000 a year.

P: James T. O'Connell, a business executive from Upper Montclair, N.J., as Under Secretary of Labor (at the same time that fellow New Jerseyite James P. Mitchell announced that he will continue as Secretary of Labor). O'Connell succeeds Presidential Speechwriter Arthur Larson, now director of the United States Information Agency.

P: Dorothy McCullough Lee, 55, of Portland, Ore., as chairman of the Subversive Activities Control Board, to succeed onetime Ohio Governor Thomas J. Herbert, recently elected to the Ohio Supreme Court. Chosen mayor of Portland in 1948, Republican Lee displayed the kind of independence necessary for her new job: announcing that "sex, as such, has no place in politics," she declared all-out war on prostitution and gambling dens. Losing a second-term try in 1952, she was named by Ike to the Justice Department's Parole Board, then to the Subversive Activities Control Board last August to succeed fellow Northwesterner Harry Cain of Washington.
