Such a policy can only result In physical and nervous e exhaustion HOST 01 01 or BURDENS Do we r realize that the president resl lent Is thought to live In lone lone- lonely lonely ly Iy Isolation at the White House he heIs heis hoIs Is compelled dally daily to be to representatives and 96 sena sena- senators sena- sena senators senators tors not to mention the multitude of diplomats bankers business businessmen men of ot affairs and delegates from all over the country And And added to these burdens the president must be ever ready to confer with the political 1 chieftains of his party who report to him the condition of ot his party In all states of the union I It lt Is my opinion that It if th the president president dent of the United States were WE're per per- permitted permitted

time lagl cn Is given cn 1 to consideration of problems that In their last lost analysis are pure pure- ly purely 1 and have to do with that side of his administration which should be bo subordinated to that of weightier measures In oth- oth other oth other er or words the president Is h no sooner comfortably seated sealed In the White WhiteHouse Whitehouse WhiteHouse House than the urge of o

The only solution of the problem Is la to make m kc tho the term of a presidents president's one of four tour to six yearn duration with the proviso that he shall be Ineligible for tor le election

Lin- Lin Lincoln Lin- Lin Lincoln Lin Lincoln coln It appears that In tho the early da dabs s of ot the Civil war when the I northern armies were sorely pressed and bad news was reaching the White House Honse that the president when seen by an intimate friend visiting him was walking up and do down don n his study careworn and greatly disturbed The friend said to the tha president I wish I c could relieve relle you of ot your burdens Mr President The rhe news we e are get getting get get- getting getting ting of the northern armies are dis dis- dis discouraging The president turned and said to his Inspiring friend Iam I I am not thinking of the northern armies I am wondering whom I will appoint as postmaster at Shel-I Shel Ky Icy In this story there Is Illustrated I the demands that aro are made upon I Ithe the president of the United States I at a time when the personalities and the success of this or that In- In Individual Individual Individual In the political field should I n be subservient to the elfare of all During my term In the White WhiteHouse WhiteHouse WhiteHouse House a 0 striking Incident occurred at one ot of the most critical stages of the world war w when hen a bitter con con- controversy con controversy arose over the question ot of who postmaster should be bo appointed ter of Ismall a I small city In northern Ohio It was at a time when David Lloyd George was crying out that the world war was a struggle between Von and Wll Wil- Wil- Wil Wilson Wilson son Various factions of the Demo Demo- Democratic Democratic Democratic cratic party were interested In the selection of a particular man for forthe forthe the northern Ohio post Many conferences were wore held The post post- postmaster postmaster master muter general had refused to recommend for tor the place the man chosen by the congressman from that district distract The senators from the state were at odds and thus the controversy In Its finality with all the soreness and bitterness that bad been engendered had to be passed on to the tho president for tor a decisIon Feelings must not be hurt In this matter And thus we found the president at a time when critical war matters pressed upon bill compelled to give his time and energy and his vitality lIty to this matter mat mat- matter matter ter of secondary Importance FAVORS rA VOltS SINGLE TERM It Is reported in the tho dolly daily press that efforts will bl bit bo made to rello e the presidency through congressional congressional action by making It unnecessary unnecessary unnecessary sary tor for him to sign various com com- commissions V missions grants of o public lands etc eta In my opinion this attempt to relieve the president would be per per- performing per performing forming but a minor operation per per-I when a 0 major one Is necessary My plea therefore is to the constitution so as to provide for a single term o of either four Cour or six years This would leave the tho president free to carry out his re responsibilities ro- ro responsibilities to the nation as a whole and would relieve him of ot all worries and anxieties Incident to i d campaign tor for a 0 second term 0 |
