SAYS;
President Taft and former Prcsi-
dent Roosevelt have been asked by
the managers of the Rpublican con-
gressional campaign to write letters
explaining why. in their judgment,
the voters OF the country should con-
tlnue the Republican party In power
President Taft has promised to do
so. Colonel Roosevelt has not dis
closed what action he viii take.
