REFORM SPELLING
FOR PRESIDENT
All His Official Documents to be
Printed in the New Style.
CABINET MAY FALL IN LINE

Oyster Bay. n. Y, Aug. 25.-Presi.
dent Roosevelt has endorsed the Car.
negie spelling reform movement. He
issued orders 10 Public Printer Still.
ings that hereafter all messages from
the president and all other documents
emanating from the White House shall
be printed in accordance with the
recommendation of the spelling reform
committee headed by Brander Ma@
thews. professor of English at Colum,
bia University. This committee has
published list of 500 words in which
the spelling is reformed, This list
contains such words as thru and
Tho" as the spelling for "through"
and though" The presidents official
sanction of this reform movement is
regarded as the most effective and
speediest method of inaugurating t.
new system of spelling throughout
the country. Not only will the printed
documents emanating from the presi-
dent utilize the reform spelling, but
his correspondence also will be spelled
in the new style. Secretary Loeb has
sent for the list of 300 words which
rival will Immediately order all cor.
respondence of the president and of
the executive force of the White House
spelled in accordance Herewith. As
the spelling reform committee shall
adopt new reforms they will be added
to the presidents list and also to that
of the public printer.
While the order to the public printer
does not contemplate an immediate
reform in the spelling of official dccu.
ments from the executive departments
in Washington, it is regarded that
more than likely the respective heads
of the departments will fall in line
with the presidents ideas and have
their official documents printed in the
new spelling
