Washington special: It can be au thoritatively stated that the president has not upon any occasion expressed the opinion that a Mormon should not be elected to the United States senate.

The presence of a Mormon apostle in official life under the public eye would, he thinks, pro voke antagonism and adverse senti ment that would result in no good to the church.
