Appointment of MorGAN as Indian Affairs Commissioner
Boston views MorGAN's selection as commissioner of Indian affairs as perhaps the best under the administration for his character and competence. The real error is making the appointment at all and removing Oberly who had earned praise for his disposition and record. Oberly's retention was urged by nonpolitical friends, while his dismissal drew support mainly from career politicians and partisan interests.
