Roosevelt urges law change to expand secret service use
President Roosevelt argues in a special message to Congress that the 1908 amendment restricting secret service work hurts crime prosecutions. He quotes the Congressional Record, defends his language, cites land frauds and beef trust cases, and urges elevating the service to a Justice Department bureau with broader powers and a $6,000 salary.
