has been perhaps the most efficient
man that I have seen in connection
with any administrative work of the
Government In all his activity.
He has been clean. courteous. forceful,
systematic, painstaking and extremely
effective. He Is going to leave the serv-
ice much to me regret.

the satisfaction that We feel In connec-

partment. As assistant Internal Reve-
nue. Commissioner he has had greater
familiarity with the work OF the reve-
nue. section Of the Treasury Depart
ment than any other man. and there
never has been breath OF suspicious
against anything that he has ever done.

fit may come from any statement We
can make in connection with his work

Taking up the incident OF Operative

declared the respondents could be held

CONGRESS STIRRED
BY TENURE FIGHT
Borah Favors Submitting
Constitutional Amendment
to People.
BY DAVID LAWRENCE,

If President Coolidge were to send a
message to Congress expressing his
opinion that 1t would be wise to limit
the tenure of Senator or Representa-
tive TO two terms. there would scarcely
be more excitement than there is on
Capitol Hill today.
For a coalition of inSurgcnt Repub-
licans and Democrats favors passage of
the La Toilette resolution expressing the
Senate's opinion as against third term
for Presidents Men like Senator Borah.
who probably are not politically friendly
TO MIR, Coolidge. insist that the issue
should be settled not by Senate resolu-
ton. but by a constitutional amend
ment submitted to the people In the
usual way Mr.. Borah believes under
some circumstances third term might
be justified. At present there is no con-
stitutional or legal limitation on the
tenure of President.
Aimed at Draft"
The La Toilette resolution is admit
tedly political as its author noted the
unwillingnesS of New York Republicans
to send an instructed delegation to
Kansas City and the recrudescence of
draft" talk with respect to President
Coolidge
u. i,
or than politics because 1t is an at
tempt by the legislative branch of the
Government to express its opinion about
the tenure Of the Executive without at
the same time putting its opinion into
binding form. The adoption of the pend
iHg resolution does not actually bind
either Mr.. Coolidge or any future PreSi-
dent nor does it bind the Republican
nartv in its next national convention as
ii is not expected that a majority of the
Republicans of the Senate will vote for
it,
Wilson Baked.
The Democratic party adopted In 1912
the Bryan plank proposing a constitu-
tional amendment TO limit presidential
tenure to one term. but President Will
son said frankly at the timeshe was a
candidate that he did not feel bound by
1t any more than by the plank to exempt
American vessels from payment Of PAN
anna Canal tolls.
The issue of limiting presidential
tenure has come up in Congress many
times in history. but at no time have
both houses OF Congress passed any
resolution on the subject.
Some States have limited the terms
OF governors and have provided against
reelection. but with respect to Fed
eral Offices there has been no limita-
ton. Many members of the House have
been elected for successive terms and
so have Senators. Indeed, many have
used the argument that useful public
servant should be retained in Office.
Some OF the defenders of President
Coolidge in the debate insisted that the
precedent and tradition applied to two
full terms. or rather to two elections,
and that Mr.. Coolidge was elected only
once and is entitled to a second full
term. Another significant fact is that
Notwithstanding Mr. Coolidge's state
ment In August and his reiteration in
December. there persists talk of nomi-
mating him. and 1t has grown to such
proportions that his political opponents
have precipitated debate on the sub
Ject and are behind a formal resolu-
ton TO express their views on 1t.
