Washington. Feb IS President
T. rait. BY inference, was charged lasi
night With using his appoIntiye power
70 lntlmidate members Of congress.
This Inferred charge was made In !
I speech In the senate by Senator
Bourne. president % the new Pro-
gresslse Republican league, and, IN.
~ the recent trouble over an Oregon
appointment, the intimate friend ana
goiting companion Of the chief execu-
I tive.
The surprising thing was that al
though all Of the senator's audience
construed his remarks as an attack
upon the president. not word was
uttered IN reply.
The Beverly letter. 10 which Secre-
tary Norton said that the president had
Withheld federal patronage from GER
tain senators and congressman, but
would discontinue that practice, was
brought into prominence. On previous
occasions insurgent senators had
threatened TO read This letter In the
senate. but until last night no public
reference had been made TO II.
Mr. Bourne opened his speech by q
discussion OF the Oregon law. He
said that when this Law Is enacted by
all the states Il will destroy the power
Of the federal machine TO renominate
president or determine his succes-
sor. The steam roller" he says.

heap, and It's operators TO the shadow

y would have as much respect for
o common ward heeler who buys votes
AT the polls as for q President OF the
United States who uses his appoint
ing power as means OF forcing or
persuadlng members OF congress to
determine or change their courses OF
action.
But, Mr. President, the use Of the
appointlyo power TO influence the ac-
uon OF members OF congress Is only
one means by which this power may
be aoused. Federal patronage Is also
an effective and dangerous power
when welded for the creation or
maintenance OF political machine
with the purpose OF forcing renomlna-
tion OF an executive or the nomination
OF man OF his choice.
The natural inference from the
Norton letter is that the President OF
the United States used federal patron
ago TO influence the action OF members
OF congress.
This Is a charge which no citizen
can discuss without regret, yet the
whole subject is OF such vital import
ance In the preservation OF repre-
sentative government that would feel
