Heney of California special counsel to conduct the present investigation into the bureu of internal revenue, irrespective of whether Heney is to be paid by Senator Consens, Republican of Michigan, or by the senate itself. The employment of Heney was suggested by Coussa by Governor Gifford Pinchot of Pennsylvania. It is understood that Secretary Mellon informed the president that he believed Governor Pinchot's interference in the matter was spied by the political difference they have long had in Pennsy vanilla politics. Mr. Mellon told the president it was said, that he had no objection to an investigation of his department that "aimed at constructive ends," but he was strong adverse to being investigated by private individuals whom he believed were bent on making political capital out of it. Secretary Mellon further informed Mr. Coolidge, it is understood that he cannot be responsible for the efficiency of the treasury department if the investigation as outlined by Governor Pinchot and conducted by Heney permitted to go on. Senator Watson said after leaving the White House that if he made any reply to Governor Pinchot it would be from the senate floor. Pinchot in a statement later admitted suggesting the employment of Heney. "There is no need to wire Government Pinchot at this time," said Senator Watson.
