Accompanying the report was a
resolution which declared it to be
the sense of the house that it shall
decline to consider any communica-
tion from any source which is not re-
spectful: recommending that the OBJ
jectionable portion of the president S
annual message be laid on the table,
and that similar action be taken with
respect to the message of last Monday
because of its being unresponsive to
the inquiry of the house as to what
the president meant when he said,
referring to the limitation that had
been placed upon the field of opera
tions of the secret service. that the
chief argument in favor of the pro-
vision which had been enacted was
that the congressman did not them
selves wish to be investigated.

character and were not allowed TO

Bennett of New York opposed the
adoption of the resolutions which had
been presented, declaring that, if the
house should accept it's action. it
would have no more influence on the

to President Roosevelt than had the
