OREOOMAN NEWS BrREAu,
waehlngton. JUpt. r. President Tart a
decision in the Wllsy case) has b
generally Interpreted to foreshadow tha
aarly retirement of Secretary Wilson
from too Departmeat of Airloultnr,
and tho itniilluMU retlrament of So
licitor McCabo. Dr. Punlap. and tho
members of tho personnel board aa
well. That tho Preeldent wtll uao thla
ono M aa JustlBcatlon for tho re
moval of Feerelary Wilson, howorer. la
not regarded as probable, for In a
measure Secretary Wilson I sustained.
In this affair.
Tho strongest Indication that Sec
retary Wilson will have to go lies In
tho Intimation of tho President that
the entire Department of Agriculture
will havo to bo gone over and remod
eled, and reflection upon Wllaon lying
In the fact that he. aa head of tho de
partment, haa allowed a condition of
affalra to arise which hla superior can
not countenance.
Wlhn Haa Dmo Maenw
Purina- hla long tenure of office. Sec
retary Wllaon haa done a great deal
to aid tho agriculturists of tho United
States, and certainly 1m haa built up
the Department ot Agriculture to pro
portions of which ho hlmaelf never
dreamed when he flrat entered tho Cab
inet. But as the department .has grown
It haa become unwieldy In Wilson's,
handa: It la a bigger lnatltutlon than
ho can direct, and hla laztty haa per
mitted a number of hla farorlto aa
alatanta to run things with a high hand
and In violation of law.
Therein Ilea tho chief reaaon for an
ticipating Wllaon'a retirement. It may
come voluntarily, and probably will,
for tho President haa no deal re to
cloaa ao lone a public career with a
stain like dlamlaaaL But SO Wllaon
must, and that before long.
Wiley Case Ket oaly Oat.
The Wiley caae la not tho flrat In
atance where ttecretary wl'aon haa al
lowed hla auburdinatea to "walk all
uer iiliu.'" Tho Plnchot caae waa oven
inure aggravating, and mere the tSec
retary never ao much aa ralaed hla
voire In protest. It waa calling- to him
to have to take dictation from a bu
reau chief, but he feared to proteat
because he anticipated that auch a pro
test might lead to hla own severance
from the service, to ho remained
qm-t and let Plnchot have hla way. It
was this very lova for office that kept
htm quiet In the Wiley controveray.
lie waa afraid to assert his authority,
because he believed that to do so mlgut
end hla own tenure of of nee.
Ulfford Plnchot. aa Chief Forester.
was absolutely supreme In all matters
aifectlnc hla bureau. Secretary Wllaon.
Inauib by law empowered to super
vise the work of that bureau, never
so much aa chanced tho punctuation
In any letter or order aent blm by pln
chot. He alcned his name at the place
Indicated by Plnchot. and Plnchot s
will became virtual law.
nilssal Moath CleaedL
Wllaon. with hla eyes wide open, saw
Plnchot usurping authority which Con
crese specifically conferred on other
v.'nciala. but he said nothlnc. Kather,
wben approval or authority from tho
Secretary of Agriculture was necessary.
Wilson eigned his name, and stood for
everything Plnchot wanted. Of course,
this waa policy under toe Kooaevelt
Administration. If Wilson was willing
to be walked over In order to hold his
Job. for once Wllaon crossed swords
with Plnchot. It was a safe bet that
President Roosevelt would sustain the
Forester, and necessitate tho humilia
tion If nt the actual retirement of the
Secretary, but had such an occasion
arisen. Wilson could have taken the
stand for right, made public his rea
sons, and put his enemies to route.
That was what Dr. Wiley did. and yet
It la a safe bet that Wiley would have
been ousted by Secretary Wilson If hs
had not made the facts public.
Oaalas) A Bother Torrer."
In the Wiley case Secretary Wlison
wa. for a time, terrorised by another
ttnoeevelt appointee. Dr. Dunlap. who.
while associate chemist, waa permitted
to usurp the authority of the chemist,
and thus the assistant head of the
bureau became superior to the chief.
Dr. Dunlap was appointed by direction
of President Roosevelt; according to
lriends. he waa appointed for tho epe
i lie purpose of "getting something on
Wiley." for Roosevelt waa no admirer
f the pure food expert, and having
been appointed under such circum
stances. Secretary Wilson, to save hla
own Jon. allowed Dunlap to run Wiley,
and never a word ot protest did he
irake. not even after the change of
Administration.
He ruld have stopped ths Wiley
squabble In a minute by showing Dr.
Dunlap "his place." or by Instructing
McCabe to perform only those duties
Utd down for him by law. But ha did
not do this; he wanted to hang onto
Ms Job; he was afraid to do what he
knew was right, and Instead of up
holding the man who Is now austalned
br ths President, he allowed Dunlap,
McCabe. and even the personnel board.
-made up of departmental nonentities.
-to override the brainiest man la the
' Department of Agriculture.
Secretary Wilson's life ambition, ap
parently, was to break the record for
long Cabinet service. He has broken
t a I record, and In tho doing ha broke
his official neck.

WHY MOST SHAMPOOS
RUIN THE HAIR
Wa quote as follows from th Bos
ton World, on "Car of th Hair," by
Ma Martyn: "Th reason for th
cant, unattractlv tresses of most
women lies In th persistent us of
Injurious shampoos. Fw reallx that
aoap shampoos do more harm than
good. The deadly alkali In soap Is too
strong for the hair, causing It to streak
and become Ufele. Such shampoos
can only result fatally to the hair.
Dry Powders also ar bad. aa they clog
up th scalp pores and cause dandruff.
"A perfectly safe shampoo Is made
by dissolvtnc a tesspoonful of can
throx In a cup of hot water. Thla
rleanaea perfectly, drlea quickly with
out streaking, and leaves th hair
bright, fluffy and eaey to do up. It Is
th surest preventive of baldness ever
dlevovered." Adv.
