Q Well, he traveled a long way.
of Mr. President, can you tell us anything more than Sinclair told us yes-
terday in five thousand well chosen words?
of He promised that you were going to tell us; that you would tell us what
happened here.
THE PRESIDENT: Did he, really?
Q Yes.
THE PRESIDENT: Then he must have had something on the way to Poughkeepsie.
or There is nothing that you can say about it, Mr. President?
THE PRESIDENT: No.
Q Cannot you discuss the Epic Plan along purely nonpolitical lines?
THE PRESIDENT: No.
I do not think there is any news. I am going to possibly have
a story this afternoon. I think I can give you the background on
it now so that if the thing does break you will know about it. It is
the appointment of one of those special boards of three for the cotton
tertile. For heaven's sake, do not use the story until I give you
the release on it. The Garrison Board which, of course, might be
called the Court of Appeals, feels, I think very rightly, that they
should not take original jurisdiction over the strike settlements,
that it should go to one of the courts of first instance and they
recommended that instead of having any question of settlement come
before the cotton textile mediation board, of which Robert Bruere
is the chairman, that we should carry it out by a special board.
There is a provision, you know, in the law for the appointment of a
special board. As I remember it, wasn't that San Francisco board
one of those special boards? I think it was.
