The mere fact that the President objects to these activities was news to no one who had followed the course of events during recent weeks. But Washington does not yet understand why the blow was struck in the full spotlight of a Presidential press conference at the White House. | NOT A GENERALITY Consider the circumstances. | What the President said to the newspapermen was that he didn't consider it in keeping wi the bride of Congressman Joseph P.| oyt of the Administration ®that entative, 3 - »'353“?."2?.‘,"'0"7"‘:?\"3,'555;2,? mem:|™Men in high party office should bers of the national house.

Now, it is not customary for po- litical friendships to break up in the open atmosphere of a press conference. If Mr. Roosevelt was displeased with Messrs. Jackson and Mullen for having Washington law offices, why didn’t he call in his two old friends and intimate to them that they were embarrassing him? Ordi- narily, such a warning from the White House would have been ef- fective. AND WHAT ELSE? Jackson apparently did have some advance information, but the fact that he already had resigned from the committee did not stop Mr. Roosevelt from speaking out Mullen expressed great surprise. While it puzzled over the mean- ing of all of this, Washington also wondered what other implications might lie buried in the President's remarks. Coincidentally Frank C. Walker resigned as Party Treasurer, but obviously he was nof in the class mentioned by Mr. Roosevelt. Walk- er has no Washington law offic he is a government official—Sec- retary- of the Recovery Council Washington wants to know: Is it Mr. Roosevelt’s real idea that party officials should have no di- | rect* association at all with the | government?
