Thousands See Matches

There We're about seven thousand
persons in the three stands and several
hundred more in standing position
about the championship court, and
these latter devotees of the game re-
NAMED there under a grilling sun until
the final point was won and lost.
The meteoric Davis began the ser
vice, followed in turn by Johnston.
Roberts and Griffin, and this order re-
manned unbroken through the match.
DAVIS won his opening game, neither
Johnston nor Griffin being able to do
much with the bullet service, but
from that point on the smaller men
started to tear into the fray with re-
OF team work that rarely hitched or
Jared Each seemed to know before
hand just what was expected of him
and did his bit, and Johnston's was far
more than Grif4in's.
Little Bill" laundering in from the
base line, blaze OF energy and deter
nination, handled the situation alnos
alone, or so it seemed unless you paid
close attention. Griffin was really
doing all that was expected of him, but
his playing was so much more subducd
than Johnson's that the eye was liable
to take note only Of the singles cham
plOn terrinc hnisnlng shots. But
Griffin was placing his returns with
beautiful judgment and accuracy and
paving the way for the final assault,
which was furnished by Johnston, gen
orally with tremendous smashes or
extremely severe overland volleys,
sharply angled.
Davis and Roberts never looked dan
gerous in this set, getting only the first
and third games, the latter on Roberts's
lightning service. Then the coming
champions had scored first blood at
e.
Davis led off again with the service
in the second set, winning the first
game at "love," as his delivery thun-
dered into the opposite court, but then
followed long period of desolation
for the younger team, for only the
fourth game of the next seven fell TO
their lot, and that was won by break
ing through Grifin's service. Both
Roberts and Davis were broken through
as Johnston and Griffin gathered power
and added speed.

The singles champion was going like

think it's exercise is clearly negatived
by section two of article III. That sec
ton, after providing that certain
enumerated officers and all officers
whose appointment are not otherwise
provided for shall be appointed by the
President with the advice and consent
Of the senate. provided that congress
may by law vest the appointment Of
such inferior officers as they think
proper in the president alone, in the
course of law, or in the heads Of de-

in the constitutional power of the con-
gress. in creating these officers to
have vested the power Of appointment
in the President alone, in the Presi-
dent with the advice and consent Of

department. Regarding as 1 do the
power Of removal from office as an es-
scntial incident to the appointing pow
er, can not escape the conclusion
that the vesting Of this power of re-
moval in the congress is unconstitu-
tional as therefore am unable to ap-

BUDGET SYSTEM
BILL IS VETOED
President Returns Bill to Congress Be.
cause Of Section of Which He Dis
approves. Says Congress Exceeds
Constitutional Power.

Washington, June 4.-President
Wilson tonight vetoed the bill to es-
tablish budget system Of submitting
the appreciation estimates of govern
ment departments.
The president said that under the
Dill congress would have authority to
remove the comptroller general from
Office and that this authority should be
reserved to the executive department.
Notifying congress that he was re-
turning the bill without his signature,
President Wilson in his veto message
said;
'T do this with the greatest regret
I am in entire sympathy with the OBJ
iects of this bill and would gladly ap-
prove it but for the fact that l regard
one Of the provisions contained in sec
ton 303 as unconstitutional This is
the provision to the effect that the
comptrollcr general and the assistant
comptroller general, who are to be ap-
pointed by the President, with the ad-
vice and consent Of the senate, may be
removed ct any time by a concurrent
resolution Of congress after notice and
hearing, when in their judgment, the
comptroller general or assistant comp
trolIer general is incapacitatcd or in
eilcicnt or has been guilty of neglect
Of duty, or Of malfcasancc Of office or
any felony Of conduct involving moral
turptudc. and for no other cause cx-
ccpt either ny Impeachment.
The effect Of this is to prevent the
removal of these officers for any cause
except either by impca chmcnt or a
concurrent resolution Of congress, 1t
has, think, always been the accepted
construction Of the constitution that
the power to appoint officers Of this
kind carries with 1t as an incident the
power to remove.
IL am convinced that the congress is
without constitutional powers TO limit
the appointing power and its incident
power OF removal derived from tho
constitution
The section referred to not only
forbids the executive to remove these
officers. but undertakes to empower
the congress by a concurrent rcsou-
tion to remove an officer appointed by
the President with the advice and con
sent Of the senate. | can find in the
constitution no warrant for the excr-
else Of this power by the congress.

thority conferred and am unable to
