BaIlInder Should Col

The presidency OF the United States
is the greatest executive office in the
world No occupant of the position
could possibly deal with more than a
fraction Of the details of the business
which might properly come before
him. Most OF 1t must be disposed of
by subordinates. So II is of the high
est Importance that the president be
surrounded by cabinet officers whom
he can trust.
Richard a. Ballinger. secretary OF
the interior, sent the president last
September the draft of a letter for
him TO sign which would have ousted
Clifford Pinchot from office and would
virtually have committed Mr.. Taft to
the approval OF the fraudulent Cum
ningham claims.
This attempt to put the president
in a false position in Itself would
have justified an immediate demand
for the secretary's resignation.
Mr.. Ballinger gave out a statement
from the White House for the presi-
dent which he knew to be false and
which the president was compelled to
disavow publicly the next day.
II looks as If It were time for Mr..
Ballinger to resign, or failing In that.
to be removed summarily from office.

CONGRESS.
Useiessnees OF Tariff Board Was
Proved by Inquiry Made Into Con-
ditions Of Paper Trade Tho
Only Remedy.

II Is a concession TO the tariff re-
form sentiment OF the country" that
Mr.. Taft is insisting on the big s250,000
appropriation for his tariff board to
Investigate and report on the subject
OF adequate and reasonable schedules.
But what concession to sentiment
OF any sort Is promised by such
board, whether the appropriation is
one dollar or half million?
Obligated to investigate all inter
ests affected by the tariff. no board
such as Mr.. Taft proposes could pos
sibly make as thorough an inquiry
into any one industry as was made
into the paper industry by the special
house committee which finished it's
labors early last year. II considered
that subject from the standpoint Of
forest conservation, from the stand
point OF the manufacturers, from the
standpoint of the employees OF paper
mills, from the standpoint OF the con-
sumner OF paper. The members OF the
committee we're OF different minds
when they began, but tho investiga-
ton was so exhaustive and the spirit
in which It was conducted so fair that
at the end the members were unani-
nous In recommending that the duty
on paper be reduced from sc to 81.
What did the Aldrich standpatters
do with the recommendation? They
did with II just what they would do
with the s250,0OO recommendation Of
tariff board. They fixed the duty
at 1915, but put in a couple of inge-
niously devised jokers that brought
the full impost up TO S6.10 per ton.
Yet they weren't smart enough to pre-
vent Canada from blowing a big hole
In the cleverly drawn schedule. BY
the same kind of ingenuity Canada
has shut off its wood supply to Ameri-
can mills, has forced a reduction OF
35 cents per ton In the American duty
and reduced its American stumpage
charge to the Canadian mill by an
equal amount.
The election OF few insurgents
might help, but the election of about
"a more good. aggressive Champ Clark
Democrats would do more for a gen
uine, rational tariff revision and
lower prices Of living than 40 tariff
boards.
