Washington. Dee. l2.-l'reSident
Roosevelt made known his purpose Il
few weeks ago regarding appointments

one of the White House callers ques-

ing the Republican party great injury
there. The president needed no argu-
ment on this score and has taken eff
fective steps to see that the men in ques-
ton give up their public duties or their
partisan activities. 1t is with them to
choose, but they must make prompt
decision,
