him and advance the arguments they
are prepared to make in support OF

specific declarations from the presi-
dent as to whether he faVors the plan
or opposes it. If he opposes 1t, they
will expect him to state fully the rea-
sons for his opposition. They then
will consider their plan in the light
of the objections he may raise and
will determine upon their stand.
