Presentation Made by Charles
S. Wheeler in Behalf of
San Francisco
President Creates Great Enthu-
siasm by Declaring This His
FavOrite City

Swayed and dominated by an en-
thusiasm which swept all before it,
the banquet given to President Taft
at the Fairmont hotel last night and
attended by 500 of the leading citi-
zens Of San Francisco proved to be the
fitting and proper climax 10 the heart
felt and hearty reception accorded the
chief executive on his visit here
The applause which greeted the
Amer speakers OF the evening seemed
Y fade into insignificance in the
mighty shout which burst forth as the
president arose Cheer upon cheer
rocketed through the hall The guests
Jumped from their seats, waving their
hands and napkins above their heads
II was riot Of unchecked and un-
limited acclaim
Great. however. as was the applause
which greeted him. it was redoubled
in force and volume when Taft touch
ing upon subjects dear 10 western
hearts. declared himself in favor or
= noficv Of conservation Of the natural
resources and the reclamation Of arid
lands. And the tumult broke out again
when he dwelt in affectionate terms on
san Francisco
MY favorite city" was his term
regarding it. i have been here five
times he said, and ] intend to come
again
This outspoken praise for the city
seemed to draw him closer to his au-
dience than any other thing His
words had in them a ring of sincerity,
strange to speeches Of political per-
sonages, and when he spoke Of my
fsvorfte city" il seemed TO be with
the pleasant and happy memories of
his visits here in the past.

years ago in this country and in some
cases discarded.
I'm my tour Of the factories l found
only two that seemed to be running
at all full capacity, the majority of the
others had largely reduced their work.
ing forces and their production of cars.
The foreigner seems to be unable to
master the production of automobiles
in large quantities thus making it
possible to produce a high grade car
at a moderate price This, think, is
probably due to two causes: First,
lack of thorough organization in the
factory itself and second. a large sales
department built on broad enough
lines to market a large output.
Frankly, l was disappointed in the
Paris salon. The automobile exhibit
at the Grand Central palace, just over
shows cars just as complete as any
thing that I saw abroad but when il
comes to the show buildings, the dec
grafton, the lighting, etc, we have
nothing in this country to compare
with the Splendor of the Paris auto
show.
Immediately after my return I
made a hurried trip of inspection
through the three Maxwell plants and
l was more firmly convinced than ever
that a modern American automobile
factory, running as we do at full ca
pacity, where factory methods are sys-
tematized to permit of large produce

can teach u.s."
