ment to the press today with refer

"I believe it is only fair to all
who may have applied for appoint
ments under Mr. McKelvie during
his absence, to state that all such
correspondence addressed to Mr.
McKelvie has been held in strictest
confidence. I have uniformly re
fused to suy whether there were few
or many applicants, whether there
were one or more applicants for
any special position, and have not
mentioned to reporters or anyone
else, any person's name as an appli
cant or who may have had endorse
ments or tetters in their behatf.
"This statement is made so that
interested persons may know that
all correspondence or conversations
in regard to apointments have been
held in the strictest confidence and
any information about applicants for
various positions must have been
given out by the applicants them
selves or by their friends.
"This policy will be contineud at
least until Mr. McKelvie returns
and any discussion that may take
place of applicants, or probable ap
pointments, or suggested attitude of
Mr. McKelvie toward any appoint
ments, will not in any way originate
from this office."
