175. lappuse - The ordinary duties of officers prescribed by statute come under the general administrative control of the President by virtue of the general grant to him of the executive power, and he may properly supervise and guide their construction of the statutes under which they act in order to secure that unitary and uniform execution of the laws which Article II of the Constitution evidently contemplated in vesting general executive power in the President alone.
124. lappuse - Mr. Chairman. I will be pleased to try to answer any questions you or any Member of the Subcommittee may have.
