apparently to the President, to say nothing
of the other legislation submitted for his

now that he would find difficulty in making
opportunity TO write his letter.
His next impOrtont public document will
probably be the message which he will
send to congress with the annual report of

sage he will be able to sum up the good
results attained in civil service reform
