learned that Pope Plus x. Is extremely

commissioned Cardinal Vincent Vanu-

The pope, it is said has requested
Mgs. .Falconio the apostolic delegate

Gibbons enlist Archbishop Farley, Of
New York; Ireland OF st. Paul; O'Con-

that the plans succeed 1t is believed
the chances Of all these archbishops

That the doctrine of States. rights

Mr.. Taft's plan to control the corpora
tons Of the country through taxation
is enacted into law.
No matter what legal or judicial

taken for granted that corporations
chartered by the several States will
not submit to espionage and supervis-

exhausting all the resources of opposi.

ford. This is case In which the dis
tinction to be made between the right
full powers Of the Federal Government
and of the governments Of the several
States will be felt in every Important
community Of the country in the most
practical way.
The right Of the Federal Govern
ment to tax privilege conferred by q
State is an issue in which every man
of business is likely to feel keen in
terest, though he may never have
thought seriously of States rights be-
fore. Indeed, States rights form 80

Tho feeling strong among the peo-
pie In the early years of the Govern
ment that the Federal authority
should be kept in check and the House
of Representatives, as the direct or.
gan of the people, should be strength
ened, Is active still. The old feeling
is still alive that In the laying of
taxes the Government should be re-
stricted to the public needs economic
