Hemenway for making misleading state
ments in the report lately submitted 70
the Senate on the uses or the Secret
Service and on tho language used by
the President in his special message.
In attacking Senator Hemenwav, the
President has attacked practically the
entire Appropriations Committee OF the
Senate. This is true TO. the reason that
the report which was lately made TO
the Senate. as the friends OF Senator
Hemenway point out. was not a person
al report. but A report that WAS sub
mitted for the Appropriations Commit
tee. and which had been approved by
the Appropria tons Committee
Consequently, there will ultimately be
a rejoinder from the Appropriations
Committee But It will not come now.

has retired from the Office OF Presi-
dent and is hunting In Africa or is
otherwise engaged in the pursuits OF
civilian.
Will Be Final Report.
The reply will be the final report
which the Senate Committee on APP
preparations viii make on the meth
DDS of the Secret Service and on the
general question Of the use OF secret
agencies by the Government,
The report which was lately made
by Senator Hemenway from the APP

from the Appropriations Committee.
What Friends Say.
HIS friends say the. testimony from
various officials obtained by the sub
committee will make Z surprising show

support Of the restriction which Con
Eress put on the Secret Service last

Presidents attack on Senator Hemen-
way is that IL has come at time when
the Indiana Senator is being talked Of
for Secretary OF the Treasury.
Hemenway's friends charge that the
President opposes the appointment IN
