secret service men. Very little of such
investigation has been done in the
past, but it is true that the work of
the secret service agents was partly
responsible for the indictment and
conviction of senator and con-
gresham for land frauds in Oregon.
Il do not believe that it is in the
public interest to protect criminals
in any branch of the public service,
and exactly as we have again and
again during the past seven years
prosecuted and convicted such crimi-
nails who were in the executive branch
of the government, so in my belief we
should be given ample means to prose
cute them if found in the legislative
branch.
But if this is not considered de-
sirable a special exception could be
made in the law prohibiting the use
of the secret service force in investi-
eating members of the congress. 1t
would be far better to do this than
to do what actually was DONE and
strive to prevent or at least to ham

said: "a pending case illustrates the
ramifications of interest with which
the government has to deal:

In his final proof he swore that he

them for this highly specialized field
Many of the inexperienced appll-
cants are obviously impossible but
even among those who are sufficient
ly promising to receive more than
passing consideration the proportion
of inexperienced is overwhelming.
Indeed of the 700 men whose names
are now on the waiting list of eligi-
bles at the secret service-that is
men who have complied with the
civil service regulations governing
applications for places in the secret

With a profession which above all
others needs devotees who can bring
to it wide knowledge and thorough
training, yet with most applicants
sorely deficient in these qualifica-
lions, the question naturally sug-
gests itself: Where does the secret
service secure it's agents? In reply
it may be said that upward of doz-
en- different callings have demon
strated their value as fields of ap-
premiership. Some of the most ca
pable secret service operatives now
on Uncle Sans payroll have come
from the claim departments of the
great railroads. Others have gained
