5 (P) Between now and September 19 Governor Warren will have 26 judges to appoint, in addition to naming four important commissions, approximately 60 rental control boards and selection of a director of the highway patrol, he told a radio audience last night. "In may spare time I can shape up some policies for them to follow." he said. Warren, in one of his regular "public service broadcasts" reported on his recent trip to Hawaii and his impressions of the governor's conference in Salt Lake City. As a result of his visit to Honolulu, he said, he is convinced the naval reserve officers' training corps program "is very worth while." "I believe it is one which should be encouraged, not only because it prepares our young men to defend our country in time of emergency, but also because no boy can receive training under this program without becoming a better equipped peacetime citizen." The Salt Lake City gubernatorial meeting, the governor said, caused him to believe, "that so long as we stick to democratic principles and procedures in our states every problem can be solved in accordance with the needs of the individual state." As governor, he will only nominate members to the state's rent control boards and that the actual appointments will be made in Washington, he explained. These boards, he said, "will have a great responsibility in maintaining relationships between landlords and tenants" and no state has a more urgent tenant-landlord problem than California.
