Has Not Received Resignation.

Secretary Glass in his statement as
serted that he had not received the
resignation of Director Lindsey, and
said that it would not appear to be
necessary to explain to the public the
dssirabit-ty of Col. Lindsley's dis
missal from the service. in view of his
own authorized statement that on
April s last, he expressed to the as
sistant secretary Of the Treasury in
charge of the war risk bureau his
utter indifference as to whether or
not the directors official communica-
ton to the Secretary of the Treasury
might be. construed as gross per-
sonal affront'
This one sentence the Secretarv's
sta tement added, clearly reflects the
spirit of exaggerated importance and
insufferable personal vanity which
characterized the official conduct of
Col Lindsey for the entire five
months period of his incumbeRey of
office, eliminating in his conceitedly
studied indignity Of April s. The
struttings around Of this official and
the extensively peremptory tone of his
memoranda finally ceased to be
amusing, and that among things of
greater consequence accounts for his
removal"
