1053. CABINET, Verbal and Written Opinions.—[continued].
The [method of taking
the opinions of the Cabinet verbally] does, in
fact, transform the Executive into a directory,
and I hold the other method [opinions in writing ,]
to be more constitutional. It is better
calculated, too, to prevent collision and irritation,
and to cure it, or at least suppress its
effects when it has already taken place.—
