Crease in Appropriations, Making
it Institution of First Glass.

WASHINGTON, d. c., Feb. a.-(Special
Telegram)-Commissioher Valentine Of the
Indian service, at a meeting Of the Indian
Affairs committee OF the senate Saturday
conceded that Genoa was one Of the
best schools in the country and should be
maintained. He advised the committee
that the school should have $500 for re-
pairs, instead of $1,000 as carried in the
house bill. He also favored Senator Burk-
ett's amendment for the erection of a
superintendent's cottage to cost $500, adj
dltional quarters for help at a cost OF 1850,
and enlarged shop buildings to cost $4,000.
These amendments were agreed upon.
This is an Increase over the house bill
of ST, 500 for the Genoa school. which makes
it,lin the opinion OF those who have fol.
loHed the appropriations for Indian schools
one OF the most favored In the country

BILL. Whach passed the House at the last
session and IL now pending In the Senate.
Coast Fortifcations.
I have directed that the estimates for
appropriation for the improvement of
coast defenses in the United States should
be reduced to q minimum. while those for
the completion of the needed Notifications
at Corregfdor in the Philippine Islands
and at Pearl harbor in the Hawaiian
Islands should be expedited as much as
possible. The proposition to make Olonga-
po and Subig bay the naval base for the
Pacific was given up. and 1t is to be
treated merely as a supply station. while
the Notifications in the Philippines are to
be largely confined to Corregidor Island
and the adjacent islands which command
entrance to Manila bay and which are
being rendered impregnable from land
and sea attack The Pacific naval base
has been transferred to Pearl harbor in
the Hawaiian Islands. This necessitates
the heavy fertilization of the harbor and
the establishment of an important mill
tary station near Honolulu. urge that
all the estimates made by the War De-
paitment for these purposes be approved
by, congressional appropriation.

The schedules Of the rates of duty
In the Payne tarIH act have been
subjected to a great deal OF criti.
cIsm. some Of It Just, more OF 1t
unfounded, and to much misrepre.
sentatIon. The act was adopted II,
pursuance o. q declaration by the
party which is responsible for 1t
that a customs bill should be a
tariff for the protection Of home
Industries, the measure Of the pro-
lection to be the difference between
the cost of producing the imported
article abroad and the cost Of pro-
ducing It at home, together with
such addition to that difference as
might give a reasonable profit to
the home producer.
The basis for the criticism Of this
tariff Is that in respect to mum.
Der Of the schedules the declared
measure was not followed, but a
higher difference retained or In
serted by way Of undue discrin1i-
nation in favor of certain industries
and manufactures. Little, II any,
of the criticism of the tariff has
been directed against the protective
principle above stated, but the main
body of the criticism has been
based on the charge that the at
tempt to conform to the measure
of protection was not honestly and
sincerely adhered to.
The hope OF those who have ad.
vocated the use Of this board (the
tariff board) for tariff purposes Is
that the question Of the rate OF a
duty Imposed shall become more OF
a business question and less OF
political question, to be ascertained
by experts Of long training and ae'
curate knowledge.

Banking and Currency Reform.
The method Of impartial scientific study

which hope to see ultimately adopted as

by the non-partisan monetary commission

valuable study of the banking ana cur
rency systems of foreign countries mas
been completed.
A comparison of the business methods
and institutions of our powerful ana sue
cessful commercial rivals with our own

upon Congress the Importance OF a nom
partisan and disinterested study and con-
sideration Of our banking and currency
system. 1t is idle to dream of CONNER
cial expansion, and of the development or
our national trade on scale that meas
ures up to our matchless opportunities,
unless we can lay a solid foundation In

mote hamlet Of the United States, and
with this machinery it is able to do
great many things economically that if

why the postal savings bank can be car
ried on at a small additional cost, and
why It Is possible to incorporate at q
very inconsiderable expense a parcels
post in the rural delivery system. 4
general parcels post will involve q much
greater outlay.

Example Of Other Governments.

The inquiries which the members Of the
tariff board made during the last summer
into the methods pursued by otner gov
ernments with reference to the fixing of
tariffs and the determination Of their ef.
feet upon trade. show that each govern.
ment maintains an Office or bureau. the
officers and employees Of which have made
their life work the study Of tariff mat
tiers. of foreign and home prices and cost
Of articles imported. and the effect of the
tariff upon trade, so that whenever q
change Is thought to be necessary in the
tariff law this Office is the source of the
most reliable information as Toe pro.
priety of the change and It's e. ect. I
am strongly convinced that we need in
this government just such an Office. and
that it can be secured by making the
tariff board already appointed q perma-
nent tariff commission. with such duties,
powers and emoluments as 1t may seem
wise to Congress to give. 1t has been
proposed to enlarge the board from three

attention was called to the new detail
OF officers In the Navy Department b.
which officers Of flag rank were assigned
to duty as aides to the Secretary ia
respect to naval operations. personnel.

was a substantial compliance with the
naval reorganization, headed by Mr.. Juh-

Roosevelt February Is, 1910. Through
the advice of this committee Of line orii-
GERS, the Secretary Is able to bring about

be appointed for a four-year Term, and
that Officers Of the adjutant and inspec-

Army Officers to Drill Militia.

In order that the militia Of each state
should be properly drilled and made more
like the regular army, regular army ON
GERS should be detailed to assist the adj
iutant general Of each state in the super
vision OF the state militia: but this Is inn
possible unless provision Is made by Con-
gress for a very considerable increase In
the number of company and field officers
OF the army. A bill was pending in the
last session of Congress for this purpose.
and I earnestly hope that. in the interest
of the proper development of republic
can army, an army small In the time o.
peace. but possible of prompt and ade

become possible under the laws Of the

can be based on the ground quite similar

the bill for the increase Of sixty In the

includes the construction OF fertilization
