ished In Washington last week in
which the assistant aerretary la ac-
.credited with having u!d some ralh-'
or sharp thlnga about former Presi

eat conservation. Mr. MeHarw haa
denied making ftriy aueh raferencef
lo Mr. ftooaevelt personally.
Assistant Hcerntiiry Melfarr la aifld
lo have grown unite bitter over the
free mnnner In which some of the
government officials In Washington,

clared hero lo be growing to auch ,
proportions that the president will '
have to take a hand and put the

'Inial'd to friends that he hope! that
