PRESIDENT HAS THREE
PLANS MAPPED OUT
Wishes to Strengthen Diplomatic Corps. to Economic
Government Machinery and to Define Federal Re
latons With Interstate Corporations.
BY JAMES HAY, Jr.

subcommittee OF three of the Cabinet
to STUDY thoroughly all means for econ
onizing in appropriations of the Gov
ernment's money.
When ali these things have been
made realities the result will have to
the administration OF governmental at
fairs.
In order to clinch the Roosevelt
policies and to define in the most exact
Government over the corporations, the
President and his Cabinet are now en-
gagged in studying the entire situation.
1t was largely for this purpose that
Mr.. Taft selected a Cabinet which con-
tains seven lawyers. He wants 10 have
a bill passed forbidding the oyercapi-
taliZation OF railroads. He wants to
recommend to the next session of Con-
gress legislation which will say when
private property engaged in public util-
ity enterprises is subject to government
tai Interference and how far this inter-
ference can be carried.
The November Message.
By next November his message out
lining all this will be written. and the
Attorney General will have rough drafts
of the laws the Administration wants
passed by Congress looking to this end
They VIII lesser the powers of the
(CAA~AA'-ss'ACe-
increase those Of the Department of
Commerce and Labor in this work They
will, if they are enacted, make COM
pIete chain between the various depart
ments concerned for controlling the cor
porstions.
The Presidents act in putting ap-
pointments to the Federal bench above
the reach of Senatorial influence was a
step toward making Government more
efficient. as is his policy OF promising
and giving the South a better class OF
Oniceholders.
His care and slowness in appointing
! men to ambassadorships and foreign
missions demonstrate his anxiety &
make the diplomatic corps strongci
, than Il has ever been. Within the past
month. before anybody had barely haC
time to realize 1t, the State Department
had entered an entirely new policy Of
dealing with the countries Of Contra
/ America
No More Revolutions.
Now the world is realizing that thi:
country will never in the future allow
revolutions and useless disturbances II

Her Easter Hat Burned.


BALTIMORE. Nd, April ia pretty
young woman. wearing as hat fiimsy
creation of straw, cherries, peaches,
and lace, stood near the cigar counter
Of a drug store looking over some Easter
cards The young woman leaned over
the counter the better to see the cards,
and the cigar lighter set the Easter hat
afire.
The clerk gave the hat a mighty pull,
and then a tragedy. With the pull came
tumbling out two daintily curled puffs.
Erantically the owner made grab for
the remaining hair but not in time TO
prevent a long, curling rat from jump
ing out upon the counter and go scam
pertng out of sight Then. with d lit
tie gasp, the heroine caught her own
tresses just as the young man extin-
guished the last tongue of flame, which
was then eating a rosy cherry. The
fair owner of the hat gracefully ad-
justed the remains of her hat and made
her exit.

- EWBURXPORT. Mass, April IL
M Frank Souther has found
some use for an Easter hat
While all the other husbands
in town were grumbling over millinery
bills, Souther grabbed his wife's new
hat and use II for a fire extinguisher.
Mrs. SOuther won't wear the hat to-
day but II saved the house.
Souther was trying to fix a lamp in
his house when 1t suddenly tipped over
and the oil ran in little rivers of fame
ali over the nOor. He reached for a
FIRE extinguisher and his hand landed
on his wife's new hat. It had cost 81,
but Souther made a rapid mental calcu-
lation and concluded that the house
was worth more than the hat. so he
ran about the room smothering DANES
with the new creation.
1t did not look much like a creation
when he had finished with II and MIS-
Souther's thoughts of Easter were a
little dampened, but she was glad the
house was saved and did not complain.
