"I'm Tim Calhoun"

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dudley_Field_Malone This photo ran in The Sunday Oregonian. (Portland, Ore.) 1881-current, February 16, 1913, SECTION FIVE, Image 67 with the caption "Dudley Field Malone, mentioned for secretary to the President after March 4 is an assistant corporation counsel in New York.- He is a son-in-law of Senator O'Gorman, of New York, and has known Governor Wilson intimately for many years. If he is not made secretary, it is believed he will become Assistant District Attorney for New York. The position of secretary to the President is regarded as almost as important as a place in the Cabinet. At times there has been discussion of the possibility of making it a Cabinet position. This would rest with the President, as the law does not mention Cabinet places. They have grown up entirely through custom." (oregonnews.uoregon.edu/lccn/sn83045782/1913-02-16/ed-1/se...)
