Evening star., 1941-01-12
Controller General Warren Has Thorough knowledge the

Der l. He was sworn in. in a simple
ceremony, by former congressional
colleague and friend, Justice Fred
M. Vinson of the United States
Circuit Court of Appeals for the
District.
His acceptance of the official post,
carrying a 14-year tenure and
$4,000 annual salary as head of the
General Accounting ONCE, climaxed
the four-year effort of President
Roosevelt to get him to accept it.
The first tender was made when
John R. McCarl retired after IA
years as Controller General. Sew
eral times Mr.. Roosevelt urged Mr..
Warren to accept, but to no avail.
Each time, incidentally, the 1st
North Carolina district almost rose
up in arms at the prospect of losing
its Representative.
Health Affected Tenure.
Two years ago Mr. Roosevelt ap-
pointed former Senator Fred H.
Brown of New Hampshire Con-
troIler General. Mr. Brown served
only a year, resigned on account of
i'll health. and accepted a place on
the Tariff Commission. In the in
terirn, career man, Richard c.
Elliott, served as Acting Controller
General, but as holdover from
the McCarl regime and an anti-New
Dealer he was not acceptable to
the President for the top position.
Mr.. Roosevelt won out in his SELL
ing job in September. Lindsay
Warren agreed to leave Congress,
become Controller General and
bring his family to big Washington
from little Washington and settle
down. This, incidentally, cost him
the position of majority leader
in the House. He was an intimate
friend of the late Speaker Bank
head and is close to the present
Speaker, Representative Rayburn
of Texas.
During the time between elec-
ton of Mr.. Rayburn as Speaker and
the selection of new majority
leader, Mr.. Warren was acting
leader, but was not a candidate for
No. 2 position in the House because
he already had agreed to become
Controller General. He previously
had been recognized as in line for
the promotion, having piloted many
major measures through Congress,
and having served as Acting Speak
er during consideration of a ma
jority of the main bills in the past
10 years. The last one, in which he
welded the gavel while his COL
leagues debated, was the 1910 con-
scription bill. He served almost
eight years as chairman Of the
House Accounts Committee, in which
he was business manager of that
branch of Congress.
Mr.. Warren is 81 years old. Force
and action, with minimum of
conversation and fanfare, summarize
his character as a public servant.
He shirks publicity and society,
makes few speeches, and concen-
trates on effort and results. His
ability to apply himself to job
Is one of the reasons for his Sue
cess.
He was born at Washington, N. c.,
on December 16, 1889, attended the
University Of North Carolina, and
was admitted to the practice Of law
Evening star., 1941-01-12

in 1912, the same year he was gradu-
ated from the university law school.
Returning home, he settled down
to practice law and served success
sively as Beaufort County Demo-
cratic chairman, county attorney,
State Senator and President pro
tenn of the State Senate and State
Representative.
Named for Congress.
In the 1924 Democratic primary,
Mr.. Warren won the congressional
nomination when Hallett S. Ward,
the incumbent, retired. That was
the last time Mr.. Warren had an
opponent in a Democratic primary
in North Carolina. Every two years
thereafter he was renominated for
Representative without opposition,
and the few Republicans in his over
whelmingly Democratic district usu-
ally paid him the tribute of not even
putting out a candidate. This cir
cumstance made him something
unique in American public life.
While the eX-legislator always has
been strong organization Demo-
crat, he never has been a yes-man.
He fought administration battles
on the floor of the House with vigor
and resourcefulness, but on a few
occasions he opposed some White
House measures, and when he did,
they failed. He has the greatest
personal devotion for the President,
and generally has been enthusi-
astic over most of his program.
The new Controller General was
the author and driving force of
the governmental reorganization
bill which is law today. After the
Evening star., 1941-01-12

defeat by eight votes of the first
measure that tore the Democratic
party wide open. he was commits
stoned by the White House to see
what might prove acceptable. Rep
resentative Cochran, Democrat, of
Missouri was chairman of the COM
mittee and one of Nh Warren's
closest friends. but Mr.. Cochran was
Ill at the time and called on his
colleague to assume the lead.
In making his survey, the former
North Carolina Representative
found that 1856 Democrats returned
to the new Congress in 1889 had
opposed the defeated bill. Many of
them were his close friends. Not
a word of criticism did he have of
a single one of them. He credited
their opposition with the same sin
cerity he asked them to accord him.
He was not in favor of putting them
on the spot, so single he
had personal, individual talk with
the entire 1856. That in itself was
terrific job. He catalogued all their
objections. They would concede
here, and he would concede there.
and the present law is a result of
these conferences. 1t went through
the House with a whoop. The
many Warren speeches on reorgan-
ization will rank as his best, and his
floor leadership in those battles al
ways will be remembered.
Friends on Both Sides.
At times lusty partisan, Mr..
Warren, nevertheless, had as many
friends on the Republican side as
on the Democratic side of the House.
He often was referred to as the
Evening star., 1941-01-12

''fairest man in the House" He
showed many courtesies to Republic
ans and was especially helpful to
new members. His appointment as
controller general was hailed widely
by Republican colleagues, several
taking the floor and praising the Sc
lection.
Thanks to his energy and persis-
tence, there will be congressional
reapportionment next year. The
Norris or lame duck amendment to
the Constitution had vitiated the re-
apportionment legislation. The
North Carolina legislator contended
that if Congress waited until the
census was announced, there would
never be a reapportionment, so he
drove the new legislation through
last summer. This will save Speaker
Rayburn and Majority Leader Nc
Cormack many headaches.
Another position the new con-
troller general vacated in the House
was chairmanship of the committee
named to investigate expenditures
for election to the House in the 1910
campaign. The committee was
established under a resolution he in
troduced early last year. He was a
delegate at large to the Democratic
National Convention in 1882, and
was elected a delegate again last
wear. but was unable to attend the
Chicago third-term convention on
account of illness in his family.
Congress was well pleased over the
appointment of Mr.. Warren as con-
troller general, but it was with
mixed feeling of pride and regret
that his colleagues saw him leave.
The controller generalship is an Of
flee of Congress, and only to Con-
eress is the controller general ac-
countable. Thus, Mr.. Warren is
sure to get along well with Con-
gress. He knows virtually all Sena-
tors and Representatives and their
likes and dislikeS. 1t frequently had
been said that he knew more OF the
individual opinions of the MEM
bers of the House than any other
man in it. When he assumed office
as head of general accounting, the
first thing he did was to order an
immediate answer to all letters from
the Senate and House. He knows
how they used to fret about delayed
answers to their letters.
New Home Ordered.
The General Accounting ONCE Is
now assured a new building. At
present it is scattered in is build
ings in the city, many Of them fire
traps with bad working conditions.
For five years an effort had been
made to get a new building, but
each year Congress turned it down.
It was a tribute to Mr.. Warren
that after his appointment as Con-
troller General, Congress acted with
speed to appropriate $10,0o0,000 for
a site and building, and the item
was not questioned by any mem
ber in either branch. The acquisi-
ton of the site is now under way.
When the new structure is COM
pleted, the headquarters OF General
Accounting will be moved out Of the
rambling barn-ike old Pension Of

ton of Grover Cleveland.

the front of the bay and in odd cor
ners about it on every story, give
it an extremely airy, cheerful, and
inviting character. There is
pretty sweep of lawn on the south,
which is bounded in turn by the
stately residence of Senator Cameron
of Pennsylvania"
Ran With Mcclellan.
But after all, as to Senator Pen
dleton, perhaps he is best known for
having been the running mate with
Gen. George B. Mcclellan in the
second Lincoln presidential cam
paign. And although the Demo-
cratic ticket was badly defeated, it
did carry Delaware, Kentucky and
New Jersey. and received in all 81
electoral votes to Mr.. Lincoln's 213
Perhaps Mr.. Pendleton should also
be remembered for his part in OBJ
tanning the Civil Service law, for
it was he who introduced his reform
bill in the Senate in 1880. and again
in 1881, though the final bill was not
approved by President Arthur until
January 16. 1888. the draft of the
law having been made by Dorman B.
Eaton.
Apparently Mr. Pendleton did not
reside in his Washington home sub
sequent to 1885, for it was in that
year that William c. Endicott, who
entered President Cleveland's cabi-
net as Secretary of War, occupied
this residence. and continued to live
there until 1889
In referring to these old homes
that have been conspicuous land
marks for upward of 60 years. the
interesting fact remains that within
less than a decade before the Cam
eron house was built, all Of the land

Sixteenth street, was practically

were being operated near Dupont

succeeded to the business of Thomas

philanthropist, w. w. Corcoran.

where now stands the branch office
