The reason the genial postmaster gereral is delaying his departure from‘the cabinet until August 1 is that he wants to clear up the department’s profit-and-loss statement for the fiscal yera which ‘ended June 30, Mr. Roosevelt said. : The President was indefinite as to exactly when Farley would resume ‘his duties saying merely that it would be some time after the election. The President parried questions as to whether Farley after August 1, could solicit campaign contributions from government workers. Republicans recently have made political capital of the fact that letters signed by Farley have been used in attemnts to raise funds. Farley has replied that any use of his signature in this manner was done without his knowledge.
