The cabinet^discussed the subject yesterday, and^the conclusion was that the pt.it^originally outlined by the president^would better be carried out
Asthe Standard has pointed out more^than once, the Isrue Is purely one of^policy. It appears that the president s^Stan la approved by men like Sherman.^Wilson (lage and Day These men. all^told, aren't worth a cent at the pulls ..1^In campaign management. The plan Is^opposed by Quay and the circle which^includes the practl. al machinlat*. the^men who do the campaign work and^bear the burden on election day.
