THE MORNING OREGONIATT, THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 3, 1920 It MR. MYERS 10 TAKE APPEAL TO SENATE Chamberlain Attacked for Opposing Hearing. . TERM HELD FOUR YEARS Ex-Postmaster Declares That He Cannot Be Removed Without Consent of Senate. 1 Direct appeal to the United States nit will he made DT Frank . Myers to retain the place of post master, from which he was removed by the president's order Monday. Mr. Mvers does not consider that the president alone has the power to dis miss him from the office, contending that the snate must coincide with the president's order of removal and Mr. Meyers plans making his fight with the senate. This information Is contained in the following statement Issued py Mr. Myers last night: "Myers will not Ret any hearing before the United States senate" is what Senator Chamberlain is quoted in a dispatch from Washington as having said in commenting: on my request ihrough friends for a hear ing before the senate committee on post oifices and postroiids. I am amazed that the senior senator from Oregon should be so lacking In sent of fair play as to deny any man a hearing anri impartial trial, contrary to the funda- I mental principles of Anglo-Saxon Justice. Particularly is tnis so in view m mo ji"" iuh.il tatnmnnt made by Ssnator Cham' berlaln some uays ago to the effect that he had had no part in attempting 10 re move me or any control over the appoint mint of a successor Since the demand for my resignation have repeatedly requested that I be given an opportunity to answer any charge that might have been made, but thus far with out success. I have now appealed to the rnited States senate for Justice. Senator Chamberlain, however, takes the position that 1 should be "fired" without a trial and removed without a hearing. Still he makes the hypocritical claim that he is not responsible for my removal. I was anrjolnled bv the president with the con-ent of the senate for a term of four years. My counsel, able lawyers, have advised me that I can be removed only in the same manner that I was appointed. Tm senate must consent to the order of removil ia such a case. Before concur ring in such order certainly the senate should be willing to grant me an oppor tunity to appear in person or in some way to answer any cnarges mat may nave been made. Since the senate Is to be the 'Jury which Is to determine whether I shall be sum marlly removed from office before my lawful term expires. It seems to me highiy Improper that Senator Chamberlin, a mem ber of that boay and one of my Judge hould approach the subject with the animus which Senator Chamberlain's in teiview clearly shows. At the postofflce everything Is serene and Mr. Myers Is not intrud ing on Inspector Bobert H. Barclay, who Is in charge. The deposed post master is keeping In close touch with his lawyers. FALLING?
