cision In the case This, which was un-
signed, contained language. particularly
in the heading and brief syllabus. which
the secretary regarded as entirely uncalled
for and extremely partisan in character.
The syllabus referred to read As follows:
1.-THE arbitrary rule of the Cleveland adj
ministration in the adjustment Of claims
based upon alleged new disabilities was
overruled by the Harrison administration
in the interest of meritorious applicants.
The old doctrine of estoppal in pension
claims is set aside by the present admins
tration." The secretary rewrote the de-
cision, eliminating therefrom the objec-
tionabls language. This morning the
secretary made inquiries as to the author
of the unsigned decision, which resulted
in the prompt dismissal Of George Baber,
. member of the board Of pension appeals
in the Office Of Assistant Secretary Bussey.
