Another odd job which the Pres!

ONCE. is that OF patron of the Column

established at Kendall Green. In this
city The chief function OF the Presi-

times and pei nit the use OF his name

The only trouble with these many
odd Jobs which the President holds.
ex 1cio, is that there is no remunera-
ton attached thereto. With a salary
OF $4,000 per ennum each, they would
represent ideal sinecurcs for tho orig
inai Wilson Democrats who have been
starving around Washington these hot
summer days.
Hundreds OF organizations would
willingly pay President Wilson largo
sums of money for the mere use OF
his name, which would be about the
greatest asset that any organization
could have. 1t would guarantee the
success OF almost any appeal for sup
port that could be made to the repre-
sentative people of any community.
For this reason Secretary Joseph Tu-
multy exerts the greatest care in con-
stdering the applications OF different
associations for the honor OF the Presi

Of the Presidents name.

them. One organization in Its formal
request for the Presidents member

was a good fellow, and az the society
was exclusively for good fellows. the
conclusion was incVitable--the Presi-

To all OF these requests Secretary
Tumulty dictates polite individual rs-
ply. explaining the precedents which
render 1t inadvisnble for the Presi-

he cannot do 80.
