[ FOR JUDGE TAFT
Report That President Will Back
Up Letters with Speeches

|LONGWORTH CALLS ON
"BIG STICK" FOR HELP
Loeb Says There Is mo In
tentiOn at Present. of
Such a Course.

WASHINGTON, Sept. sO-Despite
persistent denials,. 1t is now stated on
good authority hat President Roose-
welt will take the stump for Taft. At
the time of the S~ecretary's nomination,
the executive declared that he was at
the disposal of the party in any ca
pacity In which 1t desired to use him,
and 1t is now declared that the en>er-
gency has arisen where his presence
in the field Is needed.
Secretary Loeb today made the state
ment. that President Roosevelt had nc
intention at present of making a speak
ing tour in behalf of the Republican
candidate for the Presidency. Many
invitations had been received by the
President, Mr.. Loeb said, but Mr..
Roosevelt never has stated that he
would take the stump,
Loeb Plays SAFETY.
When asked whether, IL the situation
took such q turn that the President
might consider that making a speak
ing tour would materially aid the Re-
publican cause the President, in tina
event, would take the stump, Mr.. Loeb
replied that he might or might not do
SO, and added that no one could tell
what the future would bring forth.
According to Chairman H~itchcock's
own figures Bryan has been gaining
rapidly in the last month, and a half
a dozen States, formerly strongly Re-
publican, are now admittedly in the
doubtful column. Rumors of revolt
from the far west have also had a very
diseuieting effect with the G. o.. P.
campaign managers.
When a close adviser in Washington
was asked about the report, he said: Y
1T will not be safe to predict that
the President will not take the stump.
He may have no present intention of
doing so, but, o know, in the case
of h President one never can tell. If
he believes the exigencies of Mr.. Taft's
campaign require 1t, he will take the
stump"
According to reports, there has been
on DOT an effort in the West to create
an apparent demand for the Presidents
appearance Congressman Longworth
has helped 1t along, and Others have
encouraged 1t.
Might Spenk on Tour West,
The President. it is known, desires
to visit the Trans-Mississippi Congress
to be held in San Francisco during two
weeks in October, and also the Rivers
and Harbors convention In Chicago
next month. These will afford him an
excellent excuse to take the Western
trip and make speeches on the way
out and back.
1t is believed the President will make
a strong speech in Chicago first. He
is anxious to get before the people and
defend himself against the charge that
by selecting a successor he misused his
high office. He feels responsible for
Taft's nomination, the story goes. and
Taft's defeat will mean Roosevelt re-
pudiation.
