Referring to President Roosevelt, tho
Poe resolution says:
peated and objectionable dictation OF
President Roosevelt TO both branches OF
Congress. We denonnce his fragrant en-
croachment on their rightful powers and
independence and while amazed at the
subserviency of a Republican Senate and
n Republican House of Representatives
to his orders and usurpation. We declare
that his autocratic invasion of Their
freedom deserves and should receive the
indignant rebuke and condemnation OF
the people"
