Arter his conference with Chairman
Wadsworth , Prcsldont Roosevelt wrote
n letter to him , stating his objection
In a definite and formal way In order
that his position might be of record.
The letter was not made public.
If the measure should bo enacted ,
the president docs not say he would
sign It , but if he should sign It , he .
would append a memorandum which
would indicate unmlstalmbly. that he .
regards the law as Inadequate and un.
satisfactory.
Chairman Wndsworth has decided
that ho w111 not discuss In any manner
the objections of President Roosevelt
to the meat Inspection amendment.
Ho w111 refer the matter to his com. . .
mlttee without' delay , when the objec-
Uons will lie conslderetl. < ,
