Reagan names Clark
as Watt's successor
WASHINGTON ' William Chxk, national
security affairs advber to President Kean,
was named Thursday niit to the post cf inte
rior secretary in charge of America's natural
resources. Reagan's unexpected announce
ment prompted speculation that Clark, who
will be 52 Sunday, was being removed from his
sensitive post because of reported conflicts
with Secretary cf State George Shultz for con
trol of policy.
The White House denied this.
Clark, a close friend of Reagan and a former
justice of the California Supreme Court, first
served in the Reagan administration as deputy
secretary of state despite lack of experience in
the foreign policy field.
Reagan said he chose Clark because he
wanted a troubleshooter to replace James
Watt, who resigned Sunday.
The White House said Watt would remain in
the Cabinet until Clark's appointment was
confirmed by the Senate.
