SORRY TAFT SPEAKS SUNDAY
Ministerial Association Compliments
President, but Deplores Pro-
cram on Sabbath Day.

The following resolution was passed
by the Salt Lake Ministerial associa-
ton yesterday, and sent TO the commit
tees arranging for the reception to
President Taft:
We are very much gratified that
President Taft has included our beau
tful and rapidiy-growing city in his
public official itinerary. We hold it to
be the duty, and wish it may be the
pleasure, Of all loyal citizens to give
him cordial welcome, and to do every
thing in their power to honor him, both
on account of his personal worth and
because Of the exalted position TO which
he has been chosen.
I'VE deplOre the fact, however, that
in the program Of exercises connected
with his visit, as now announced, the
principal address by the President and
the most important public function in
his honor are arranged to take place on
Sunday. We believe that it would have
been more IN keeping with the tradi-
tiOns of this Christian nation, more
pleasing to the President himself, and
that it would have been quite as con-
venient for the public if Saturday had
been cb1seu tor these prtuctqal fU0c
lions. This invasion Of he Sabbath IS
all the more griev0Us, because that par
uculdr part OF II Is CHOSEN Wnlch most
seriously inteTfeTes with the meeting Of
Sunday schools and the gathering of
congregations in the churches for the
public worship of God; and because the
choice of the day at all was wholly I'M
necessary.
We do not believe that either the day
or the hour for these most public dem
OnstTatiOns has been selected by the
Presidents personal choice. He would
never be so Unmindful of the example
set in such matters by his illustrious
predecessors in office; nor would he ever
fail of the respect due to the religious
customs of SO many of his fellow citi-
zens; and, least of all, would he forget
the reverence due TO the Divine Being
whom he and they worship"

SAVINGS IN PAYMENTS.
Plans Devised for Giving Navy Yard
Men Their Wages.

A saving In time OF workunen to the
value OF $4,000 a year has been Effected
by Improvement IN the systems Of pay
ment OF employees OF the various navy
yards Of the country. and the Navy De-
partment hopes TO save even more money
IN this manner.
The matter was taken Up some time
ago by Assistant Secretary OF the Navy
Winthrop. who found that IN most yards
the average tine taken BY each nan IN
receiving his pay was afseen minutes
AS the men are paid four times q month,
the total was enormous. Instructions
were sent cut directing that the pay sys-
tens be improved. IN the New York
yard a pay car on tracks running 70
various centers where numbers OF men
were employed was built. At the Wash
ingtOn yard an automobile car IS used.
In Norfolk tool shops were fitted up FOR
payhouses and arrangements made FOR
the prompt appearance and disposal OF
groups OF worCmen. In other yards dIf-
ferent schemes were tried. most OF them
with great success.
At Boston the average time a man was
cut from sixteen minutes % two minutes.
This Effected a saving OF 800 hours a
week, or seventy-fve working days. IN
the New York yard the time was cut
from ten or eleven minutes man 70
three and seventeenth minutes, and in
Washington from about fifteen minutes 70
two minutes and forty seconds.
IN addition the employees are being
drilled, so they viii appear for pay snd
