Seattle, today;
Your communication, calling upon me 10 re-

which induce you 20 ask my intervention IN the

No court, civil or military, would lor a no

There are. however, other reasons which pre-

NEWSPAPER OPINION

speaker Crisp and BIS O. mmtttess.
Dover Delawarean.
In cur humble opinion IL Is about time
for those Democrats who favored the
election Of Mr. Mills as Speaker OF the
Federal House Of Representatives over Mr..
Crisp to stop scoldlng aud quit fault.
f dug. Mr.. Mills had a right 60 seek
the Speakorship OF the House, so had
Mr. Crisp OF any other membti OF hat
body. The majority Of the Democra ic
members favored the election of Mr.
Crisp as Speaker and he was elected fairly
aud upon square contest under the
rules OF the democratic caucus. The
assumption that Speaker Crisp IVES
In honor bound to appoint Mr. Mills
chairman Of the COMMITTEE Of Ways and
Means, is utterly absurd and against
Democratic precedants, Let us look al
some OF the presidents IN the last quar-
ter Of century. Mr. Randall OF Penn
sylvania was strong competitor and
about the only competitor Of Speaker
Kerr, for the Speakership. but Mr. Kerr
never bhought OF offering the chairman
ship Of the Ways and Means Committee
to Mr.. Randall but appOil ted William R.
Morrison Of Illinois, 70 that position Mr.
Randall was elected Speaker TO the next
House Of Representatives over Nj.
Blackburn in close fight, but
he never mentioned appointing Mr.
Blackburn, but gave the chairmenshlp
Of the Ways and Means Committee, "a
Fernando Wood OF New York. Agai-,
when the gifted and astute Carlisle or
Kentucky, was elected Speaker ever
Mr.. Randall he gave the chalrmanship
OF the Ways and Means Committee to
his warm FRIEND, Mr. Morrison. notwith-
standing Mr.. Randall was the acknowl-
edged leader on the Democratic side and
bad three times been elected Speaker
This is Democratic precedent since the
war and that precedent did not make Ii
incumbent on Speaker Crisp to give the
craftsmanship OF the most important
COMMITTEES TO man simply because he
was prominent in the Speakership con
test.
