in what was conceded to be one of the

opinions of three government physi
clans, for the third time refused a

that the president was reluctant that

their efficiency in the lines of eXecu
tive work to which they have been as
signed
In other instances "pnll" has been
able to keep officers in Washington

life there to some post not having
most of the joys for Il pleasure loving
