President Roosevelt could not appoint Senator Clark’s recommendation for the role of United States Attorney, as he is unfit for the role. After discussing M. B. Camplin’s qualifications with Judge Willis Van Devanter and the Attorney General, it has been made very clear to him that Camplin is unfit for the position, and he will reappoint Timothy F. Burke to the role.
