First Assistant Postmaster General Hay breaks custom on appointments
In a sharp departure from long held practice Hay declares that department patronage should welcome input from lawmakers but not be dictated by them. He states that appointments will favor fit candidates aligned with administration, regardless of state legislators or congressmen pressure. The remarks follow a complaint from a senator over a recent fourth class postmaster choice.
