Fouse IN large numbers. They are

ravenous and imrortrnats. The
President sends all applications for
recognition that come TO him to the

are Phswered by sending to the aspi-
rants for Office blank form of the

disgusted the patriots who expected
to get appointments through infln'

Still, since it has become apparent
that the "harhed wire fence" as the
civil service Commissioners call it,
was not to he let down even to the
