NEARLY BROKE FAITH
WITH CONGRESS
Senator Hitchcock Charged Postmaster
General Burleson in Taking Over
Gables After Armistice
Was Signed.

Washington, d. C., Dec. 30-By taking
over control of the cables after the armi-
stiee was signed, Postmaster General
Burleson came very close to breaking
faith with Congress" Senator Hitchcock
of Nebraska, chairman of the Senate
foreign relations committee, declared in
the Senate to-day in commenting on a
letter received from the postmaster gen.
eral explaining his action.
In his letter, which Senator Hitchcock
put into the record, the postmaster gen
eral explained that the order providing
for the taking over of control Of the ca :
bles and signed on Nov 2, was based
upon a ruling of the attorney general
that such action was legal.
Senator Hitchcock declared that while
the order might have been signed by the
president on that date, il had not been
countersigned by the secretary of state,
while announcement of such intention
had been suppressed, the country not
knowing anything of it.
The postmaster general the senator
added, "did something that was entirely
outside of the authority Congress intend
ed to give him" and by taking such ac-
tion even after the war had ended, he
came very close to breaking faith with
Congress-
Il don't believe" he added, "that any
intelligent persons win support the post
master general in the claim that because
the order was signed on Nov. 2, he was
justified in taking over the cables"
Even with the attorney generals rul.
ing, Postmaster General Burleson was
mot vindicated, Senator Kellogg of Min
nesota declared He added that Mr.. Bur
Lesson had violated the good faith of
