The excuse that tax payers will still have to go four times to one office instead of to four offices is nothing but an excuse, and a flimsy one. Let the tax duplicates be all ready at the same time.

The usefulness of such an inquiry, made publicly, would be appeasement of sentiment in Haiti hostile to the United States, and indicate to Congress and the President what should be done there. The position of the United States, which has pledged itself by treaty to maintain order in Haiti, is very poorly understood in Latin America, where our present acts are being criticised. Such an inquiry as the President desires would have the effect of disarming criticism by showing why we are acting in Haiti; and also reveal the reasons why the recent disturbances occurred, without the United States being in any way to blame.
