California believes that he will Suck 70

Taft most nearly represents his poncleS
and ideals, Taft is the man we want
Polls taken by the big California
newspapers prove that Taft is practical

might add, too, as far as the Democrats
count. for the Democrats are In the

Senator Flint said TINT the money

PORTABLE SCHOOLS
DIFFICULT TO GET
Only Small Ones Available,
and Can't Be Delivered
for Six Months.

The Board Of Education Is meeting
obstacles in its consideration OF the
plan recently suggested for the pur-
chase OF portable school houses for use
in the District and has failed 10 find
manufacturer so far who can promise
satisfactory deliveries should the plan
be deemed feasible Secretary Hine
and Superintendent Chancellor have been
IN communication with several firms
manufacturing portable schools, but all
replies received to date Indicate that
the factories are far behind on orders
and could not promise delivery within
six months.
Another objection met with IS the
smallness of the portable schools. one
firm advising that Il could supply houses
but 12jk feet in width. Another large
firm heard from gave but little better
dimensions
The matter will probably be laid be
fore the board at its next meeting BY
Superintendent Chancellor.

B. & 0. BEGINS
TO MOVE TODAY
TO NEW STATION
Passengers Will Be
Forced to Use Tenn
porary Waiting Room
for a While.

The Baltimore and Ohio Railroad Com
pany will begin at o'clock this evening
the work of moving its passenger head
quarters from its old home to the new
Union station and tomorrow morning at
$50 o'clock passenger traffic in one OF
the most superb railroad stations in
the world Will be under way.
Tonight the temporary ticket Offices
and the temporary public waiting room
in the new station viii receive the fin
ishing touches that viii prepare them
for use until the main waiting room and
the permanent ticket offices are COM
pleted. The work of moving the offices of
the Baltimore and Ohio passenger traffic
Will not be particularly arduous, as it
viii consist mainly in transferring num-
bers Of tickets and a few of the ofrice
fixtures. The baggage rooms that will
be put in use tomorrow will also be
temporary.
November Il all the other railroads
running into Washington and now using
the station at Sixth and B streets will
use the new station.
The structure which is so rapidly
nearing completion is superb not only
in its general outline Of beauty. but
in the finishings, to all of which the
closest attention has been given by
those in Charge Of the construction.
There is no doubt that the result Of
months Of labor that have been put on
the building fully repays the Iegisla-
ton. appropriation and planning neces-
sary to make the new station a reality.
The arrangement of the station, both
I'm the arrival and departure of pass
engers and the exits and entrances on
the Capitol side Of the building, is ad-
mirably adapted to the public convent
enCe. When the station is completed,
there will be special waiting rooms,
some for men and some for women, and
one handsome large waiting room that
IcCiEs big enough to accommodate any
sized crowd that may ever congregate
there.
