This newspaper article discusses President Roosevelt’s investigation of charges against Comptroller Robert J. Tracewell. Roosevelt’s decision to appoint “two mugwumps” has been faced with some criticism, but the administration thinks that country will appreciate getting the matter out in the open. The article also comments on some of the findings by Bonaparte, who is one of the investigators in question looking into the Post Office affair.
