Roosevelt Defends Secret Service in Capitol Message
President Roosevelt rails against lawmakers Tawney Smith Sherley and Fitzgerald accusing them of seeking to limit the Secret Service. He argues the House misread his earlier message and defends broad use of agents, urging funding and abolition of restrictions. The note cites land fraud prosecutions and calls for the Service to be made a bureau in the Justice Department.
