Mr.. Frick was one Of my stanchest
allies; Messrs. Ryan and Belmont two
OF our most resoiute opponents. Not
only has no single act been done "
the Administration or BY Congress
which could be construed by It's most
frantie opponent into fsvoring the iinad-
cial Interests OF the one side or Us Dis
eliminating against the financial inter-
ests OF the other, hut do not believe
that even the most mcndac!ous critic
would assert such to be the case.
That all the contributions were
worthy, no man can say any more
than II is possible to say tina; all those
are worthy who are contributing TO tao
Red Cross fund for the Japanese suf-
ferers. which Is being collected by my
authority. But in one case. AS in the
other, the Immense majority of those
contributing were and are worthy men
Influenced by worthy motives.
Indeed. considering tho action taken
by the Administration in the various
sul.s against the Beef Trust. the To-
bacco Trust, against the railroad COM
panies in the matter OF rebates, &C..
and In view of the course we have pur-
sued throughout In all corporation mat
tiers. II ought TO be wholly unnecessary
so much as to allude to any allegations
that any contribution from any source
has been allowed to influence In the
slightest degree any administrative act
OF mine or any legislation I have rec
commended since l have been Pres.-
dent"
The letter commended Mr. Bliss and
added that he hoped Mr.. Bliss had
mot been bothered by those outrageous
assaults upon you In connection with
the campaign contributions"
II have felt the keenest Indignation
as have read them" the President
added.
