The presidents letter to Senator
Fall follows:
Thank you very much for your kind
promptness in complying with my re-
quest thar you send me Il copy of the
memorandum report OF the subcommit-
tee on foreign affairs.
L shall examine it with the greatest
interest and care. What you told me
of the investigation on Friday last
prepared me to find in it matter of
the greatest Importance.
You ask an indication of my de-
sire with regard to the pending resO-
luton to which you and Senator
Hitchcock called my attention on Fri
day, and | am glad to reply with
the utmost frankness that / should
be gravely concerned to see any such
resolution pass the congress 1t would
constitute reversal of our conStitu-
tiOnal practice which might lead TO
very grave confusion in regard 10 the
guidance of our foreign affairs.
II am confident that am supported
by every competent Constitutional au-
thority in the statement that the ini-
tiarive in directing the relations of
our government with foreign govern
ments is assigned by the Constitution
to the executive. and TO the executive
only.
Advice Must Be Sought.
"Only one of the two houses of
congress is associated with the presi-
dent by the Constitution in an advis-
DRY capacity and the advice of the
senate is provided for only when
sought by the executive in regard TO
explicit agreements with foreign gov
ernments and the appointment of the
diplomatic representatives who are to
speak for this government at foreign
capitals.
.srhe only safe course, am con-
fident, is to adhere to the prescribed
method Of the Constitution. We might
90 very far afield if we departed from
it.
81 am very much obliged to you for
having given me the opportunity to
express this opinion.

ACTION IS
BEGUN IN
CIRCUIT CT.
Remonstrance is Started BY
City and M. E. Church
Against Street Vacation.

CROWN PUNT, Ind. Aug Sore
monstrances were hled this afternoon in
the Lake circuit court against granting
the petition hled by E. y. Bunnell OF
Hammond for the vacation of seven feet
of street to the south of the property
which he recently purchased at the cor
ner of Holman and Russell streets In
Hammond.
The remonstrances hled today were
from the City Of Hammond through At
torneys McMahon and Conroy and the
trustees Of the Methodist church
through Attorney Jesse Wilson.
The original petition which was filed
BY Attorness I1aeh. Gavit & Stinson.
asks that the seven foot strip of land
which lies TO the south Of the Standard
Oil Co. filling station along Russell
street, be vacated from Holman street
TO the alley at the rear of the lot The
matter is to coure up for hearing BY
the court Monday and all rcmonstrances
and objections must be filed before that
time.
The remonstrance Of the city names
the three statutory objections which can
be raised
/ That the preservation Of the pres
ent width Of the street Is essential 70
the growth of the city.
2. That the vacation would leave the
rernonstrators real estate without in
gress BY means OF public street.
3. That the vacation would cut off
public access TO 4 school or church.
This also covers part Of the conten-
tion Of the remonstrance by the church
trustees. The argument is presented by
the attorneys that the movement in
Hammond now is towards wider streets
shown by the agitation for the wild
ening OF State and Holman streets and
that tho idea of making Russell street
in the heart OF the city smaller is alb
surd.
When the Methodist church was built
at a cost Of $4,000 the building was
constructed seven feet from the side
walk in order 10 preserve the present
street and permit its widening TO the
limit specined il the city plat The
church expects to start work soon on
the new settlement house next 70 tho
church which will also cost $50, 900.
The trustees contend that with the in
crease in automobile traffic and the num-
Der which park in the vicinity of the
church the street should be widened
rather than made smaller.
Resnonstrances by other interested
citizens Of Hammond are expected be-
fore the case Is called Monday.
