 Please do not file the suit until near from you. Sincerely yours,
 THEODORE ROOSEVELT. Commissioner Smith wrote the Presl- dent that Mr. Perkins outlined the posi- ton of the Harvester company as having committed no violation of law or whlch it knew and only wished that the lnves- tigation then under way by the depart ment of commerce and labor De eontihueu' The company was willing to stand prose cution if found in. violation of any statutes, he said.
 The commissioner wrote to the Presi- dent, in part, as follows:

Inquiry Interests England

London, April 24.-Intense interest .n the American Senates Titanic inquiry vas demonstrated in the house of com mons at ? o'clock today. Alexander M Scott inquired:
 Are you aware that those called before the Senate committee are Brit lsh subjects and are not receiving hon orable treatment? Will you take steps to secure fair and impartial treatment for them?"
 Francis Dyke Acland, parliamentary under secretary for foreign affairs, re- piled:
 NO such complaint has been re- ceived by us. Surely in this matter we may trust the American cousin"

Could Give Protection

In answer to previous questions MT. Acland said: q am not aware of the precise grounds on which the United States Senate inquiry is being held. I understand the object Is to determine the responsibility for the wreck. AS far as I am aware there never has been previously foreign inquiry into the loss of a British vessel on the high seas"
 In response to a suggestion MT Arck- land said he did not doubt that if protection was desired by the British witnesses instructions would be sent to the British ambassador. He said he hoped the case would not justify it.
 William O'Brien closed the debate by suggesting that many American cit jzens had lost their lives and that in- terest in the disaster was as great in the United States as it was in England

Smiths Reply to Colonel

ITO the extent of my present knowl- edge 1 am satisfied that the facts are as stated by the company, with the single exception that I do not have definite knowledge as to the nature or the ease now in the hands of the department or Justice but from the expressions or the Attorney General, l am inclined to be- lieye that it is as MT. Perkins stated, purely technical legal question.
 .'As to the principle of fair dealing and good policy involved, I also concur em- phatically with the attitude of the com panv It is certainly true that this com pany has been most open with the bu- reau:
 .'Furthermore, the attitude Of the Nor gan interests generally, which control this company, has been one of active CO., operation. In the investigation of the steel industry, the United States Steel corporation has already spent thousands of dollars in compiling, for the bureau, the most complete and intimate informa- ton as to the business and it's offlcers' have gone to immense trouble and loss of time to facilitate in every way our work
The Birmingham age-herald., 1912-04-25
Perkins Arguments

s.,In my interview of August "A, with MT. Perkins, he set forth a number Of con sidera tions which seem to me or great weight. He stated that his company had endeavored to obey the law in every re- spect and had carefully put itself in line with the policy of the administration; that the interests that he represented, includ- ing not only the International Harvester company. but the far reaching Morgan interests generally, had originally favored the creation of the bureau of corporations and the policy of the President, which that bureau represents and that both Tn their attitude toward the bureau and in their conduct and management of their various concerns, including the United States Steel corporation, they had adopted a similar policy of frankness and pub licity; that so far as they were aware they had not been guilty of any viola tions of the law. certainly none involving a moral consideration; that as he phrascd it, he was now being laughed at in New York by the Standard oil people. who were saying that he had tried to be good and keep solid with administration. but that he now he was goign to get the same dose as other people who had not followed si1ch pOlicieS.
