president Taft" said the doctor to-

man, and he had continually put on
weight until three years ago. When
first met him he weighed close to the
350-pound mark. For a time he reduced
his flesh by playing golf, but recently
his weight began to increase again. The
president now has gymnasium fittsd
up in his garage at Beverly and every
morning we go thru an hours exer-
else together.
"The first part Of the hour is devoted
to scientific exercises and these are fol-
lowed by more strenuous exercises,
such as wrestling and boxing. The
president is strong, let me tell you, and
any one who gets him on his back in a
wrestling bout has got to go some. To-
day President Taft weighs about 3O4
pounds and he is IN good shape for
twenty five years hard work of any

Beverly, Mass, Aug. 16.-In a letter
addressed yesterday to Secretary Nagel
of the department Of commerce and
labor, President Taft served notice that
any man engaged in the taking of the
thirteenth census of the United States
who engages in politics in any way,
will Immediately be dismissed from the
service. Outside of casting their votes
the president believes that census sup
ervisors and enumerators should keep
clear of anything that savors Of poll
tics, national, state or local.
The president oxders that the secre-
tary of commerce and labor and the
director of the census embody in the
regulations governing the taking Of the
census the rule so forcibly laid down
In his letter.
Mr.. Taft says that in appointing CEN
sus supervisors it has been found nee
essary to select men recommended by
senators and congressman in their dis
trdcts. He says he realizes that this
method of selection might be perverted
to political purposes and it is to take
the census out Of politics, so far as the
actual work is concerned, that he has
explicitly expressed his desires as to the
regulations.
President Taft has told the represen-
tatives and senators who have urged
various men for census places that he
would insist that no active partisan
should be named and that no attempt
should be made to build up political
machine in any state or district thru
the distribution of the census patron
age.
