Senator Platt believes that the superintendent of the Government Hospital for the Insane in Washington is a presidential appointment and he will instruct Dr. William A. White to get his endorsements together. He defends James H. Worman, consul general at Munich, against the charges that have been filed against him. After consulting with William Barnes, Platt believes that the appointment of General Robert Shaw Oliver as Assistant Secretary of War will be widely accepted.
