''In appointing these committees L
have not followed the lines of my own
desires nor yours This, | found at the
outset, to be impossible. | have not
made appointments which personally L
should like to have made, and | have
made appointments which personally L
did not want to make. But l was guided
by what | believed to be for the best in
terests of all the people. | appointed
these committees so as, i'll my judgment.
to subserve the best interests Of the peO-
pie, not of this or that, but every section
of the state. | have endeayOred to make
these committees working committees,
and if | have failed in a single instance
it was because | did not know and not
because | did not carefully weigh every
element to be considered III the perform
ance of this important work. You re.
member before undertaking this work |
| requested all the members to submit to
me a statement of their preferences as to
commtteeships. Most of the members
complied with this request. Some did
tabulated and no request was ignored
though many were not granted. ALL
however. were considered You will
readily recognize the futility of trying
to grant every request. | will say this
though, that wherever possible, i'll conso
nance with what impressed me as for the
best interests of the state, | granted
these requests. At any rate, l gave my
best thought and Judgment to this work
and hope the formation Of these commit
tees will carry out my desires of sub
serving the best interests of the people
