President Wilson.

WASHINGTON, June 10. - Presi-
dent Wilson let It be known today
that he did not regard the proposal
Of Attorney General McReynolds for

Talking with the correspondents at

Wilson referred to the proposal as a
suggestion" that had been discussed
and upon which the attorney general
had solicited the opinion OF mem
hers OF the senate finance commit
tee. He said moreover that the pro-
posal itself had been discussed In the
cabinet meeting only few minutes
when the president was told that
some democratic members OF the
senate had stated their opposition to
tho enactment OF a currency bill at
this session. he declared that no such
lntimatiOn had reached him and that
his information from the senate was
that considerable number OF sen-

Declares Credit or Blame for Post
office Appointments all Belongs
10 senator Gore.

WASHINGTON, d. c. June t2.--
(SpeciaD D-Wm. II. Murray congress
man at large from Oklahoma, today
sent out the following statement:
Il feel 1t my duty to be candid with
the people of oklahoma by stating
to them that the postmaster general
will listen to the advice of no con-
gresham at large recommending for
appointment applicants for post
master. and further to state that,
in order to test whether | should file
protests against Objectionable men,
especially whore they have been con-
viCted OF crime or guilty of shortage
or official peculation, | have filed
for such reasons five protests and two
for personal and political reasons.
and one OF the latter I later with
drew. AS result I find that neither
will my protest avail anything In de-
feating an unqualified or even dis
honest men.
Therefore, / have decided to have
nothing to do whatever with the mat
ter Of patronage before the postof-
flee department. The wisdom OF this
course will be apparent to everyone.
I should not sacrifice valuable time
In vain and hopeless fort TO Sc
cure appointments before a depart
ment wherein will he considered
neither my recommendation nor pro-
test. Some person has evidently made
this department believe that l am
without standing in the state and that
my election was nothing more than
an accident.
II am further convinced that to
Senator Gore or one of the District
Congressman VIII be due the credit
o: blame for the appointment Of ev-
cry postmaster In the state. | make
this statement candidly, that appli-
cants in the future may know to what
source they must apply In order to be
successful, and that the people may
know to whom belongs the credit or
blame for these appointments"
