PRESIDENT TAFT
Tells Committee from Recent In
dianapOlis Convention II Would
Be a Great Aid.

WASHINGTON, March 31.-President

trade agreements, as well as in furnish
ing detailed information to Congress
and to the White House on various tar
if questions as they arise.
The Presidents announcement was

committee of one hundred treated by
the national tariff convention recently
held In indianapolis. This committee,
consisting of II. E, Miles, chairman;
Henry X. Towne, of New York. and ID.
A.. Tompkins, of Charlotte, N. G., called
at the White House TO lay before the
President the views of the convention
and to recommend a ermanen tariff
commission.
The members of the executive COM

is necessary for Congress to provide a

their influence so far as possible to pro-
cure legislation on the subject at this

OF JESUS NOT
FAIR UNDER JEWISH LAW

There were several trials of Jesus
during the same day. The first was
known as the Saniledrin Jewish Court,
which discussed the theological side of
the charges. The second was before
Pontius plate, and the third was un-
der Herod, the petrarch. Both of these
latter were civic trials. The Jewish
court represented the thinking and in
telligent part of the Jewish nation and
PLATE and Herod. of course, were Ro-
mans.
Jesus was tried, convicted and cruel
fed Just at the beginning Of the Jewish
passover. He was tried on a day pre-
ceding the Sabbath. He was tried on
a fast day. His trial was conducted in
less than a day. All this was against
the Jewish law. The. trial took place
at night. The questions asked The nan
Jesus We're meant to make him con
Wet himself. All this was contrary TO
the practise of the Jewish bar.
Jesus was not given a fair trial. It
matters not whether He was divine or
not. His alleged trial was not legal, He
was entitled to certain things He did
not receive and His trial was nothing
more nor less h a farce"

The idea is to decide on the proper

idea is to maxi the two ordinances

planned to place the lodging house or
dinance on second and third reading
practically without change. Owners
of these places have held that the or
dirance is TOO drastic and will make it
hard for them to comply with. The
aldermen, however, after an inspection
of lodging houses, say the measure
cannot be too severe.
1t is rumored that there may be some
discussion at this conference that may
not be altogether harmonious. Sew
eral of the aldermen have openly ex-
pressed disapproval at the way Alder
man Congleton. their elected leader,
conducted the affairs of their side
of the Council. They say he has done
too much without consulting other
members.
