PLUM BASKET IS
PASSED AROUND
Army of Consular Officers Are
Moved up to Better
Positions.

Washington, June 15.-The president
today sent to the senate the nomina-
tions Of sixty-one consular officers,
probably the largest number of such
nominations ever submitted in one day.
The district was the result of many
weeks work by Secretary Root and
Wilbur Carr, the chief of the consular
bureal, upon the general proposition
to provide against the failure of con-
gress TO provide for a regular system
of promotion in the service. Therefore,
nearly all of the nominations of today
are really promotions. and the dOcu-
mentary evidence of that fact is found
in statements that the nomination is
to fill a vacancy caused by the pro
notion of the incumbent. instead of
by the tran sfer." All of these promo
tons were made upon the efficiency
record of the consuls. As a result only
the places at the foot of the list are
left open for original appointment.
Consuls general follow:
Henry H. Diedrich, District of Column
bia, at Antwerp, Belgium; VIM. Hey

Therefore in at least one of the
two criticisms you make of the bill
you must admit that you are absolutely
wrong.
''You say: Doubtless it suits the
packers, who object to a thorough
going inspection
4 told you on Wednesday night,
when I submitted the bill to you, that
the packers insisted before our COM
mittee on having d rigid inspection law
passed. Their life depends upon it,
and the committee VIII bear me out in
the statement that they placed no
obstacle whatever in our way, but on
the contrary gave us many valuable
suggestions. based upon their prac-
teal knowledge of their business.
Your other actual criticism of the
amendment refers to the court review
clause. The worst that can be said of
this clause is that it is perhaps I'M
ecessary-that. it is already covered by
existing law I have been taught al
ways to honor the judiciary of my
country. I have been taught always
to respect the rights of its citizens and
to respect the rights of property, and 1
cannot believe that the mere repetition
of a provision which guarantees to the
citizen the privilege of an appeal to the
courts of the land when he believes his
property rights are threatened can be
justly or properly objected to-
Calls for the Facts.
The rest of your letter deals with
generalities and a general condemna-
ton of the committees bill. If you
or your advisors will point out speci-
ficalIy wherein it actually fails to &C
cOmplish your purpose, 1 can assure
you il Will be promptly remedied.
You say further along in your let
ter: And l cannot even promise to
sign il. because the provisions are so
bad that, in my opinion, if they had
been deliberately designed to prevent
the remedying of the evils complained
of they could not have been worse
