SENATOR REBUKES
! SEC'Y GARRISON
Declares Members of Upper
Chamber Have Right to Rec
ommend Army Promotions.

WASHINGTON. Aug 4.-Senators
and representatives are showing a
disposition to resent Secretary Car
rison's enforcement of the order pro-
Sibiting their intercession in favor
of promotions for army officers.
The secretary adopted the policy of
writing each congressional advocate
of promotions, saying the communi-
cation was not received with approval
and made it necessary to ask the Off
Ger concerned if he was in any way
responsible for the intercession in his
behalf
The letters are said to have con-
tinued in identical phraseology over
the signature of the acting secretary
of war since Mr.. Garrisons depar-
ture on his inspection tour of army
posts. The latest remonstrant is SEN
ator John Sharp Williams, of Missis-
sippi, who, replying to the acting Sec
rotary, said:
Your letter with the enclosed cir
-cular, which you send me, is at hand
Where officers are confirmed by the
Senate it is made part of the con-
S'i'"eiohHA uNtS VI a Soii"'Ois ny !"
provision of the constitution, to ad-
wise as well as consent.
These officers are appointed not
only with the consent, but advice of
the Senate. Therefore, the right of
senator to advise the department con-
corning any executive, military or
naval officer whose appointment de-
ponds upon confirmation by the Sem
ate is constitutional and cannot be
thrust aside by any executive order"

P. O. Jim Grow
Ruling Opposed

WASHINGTON, Aug. 4.-Opposed
to segregation of the races In the
postoffice department, Senator Clapp
of Minnesota. was prepared today to
insist that Postma ster- General Bur
Lesson explain the grounds on which a
department order providing for such
separation of the white and negro
employees was in contemplation.
The senator contends that the two
races have worked together for a half
century. The proposed plan, Senator
Clapp says he has been given to
understand, would increase the ex-
penses of the department by approx
mately $4,000 a year.
