Presidents commissions in their pockets IL does look

Judgment on political afAs and public be good

the Oomsn OF his country and represents them "ogng

President OF encouraging and polonEing the debase-

OF the administration not mature enough TO sun

wisdom Of bis own. Here is his notion OF the way to
