building restrictions. saying among 9TH
err things the following:
Time was when the real estate man
believed that TO b. successful IN the
handling Of a new section OF a city Il
was necessary that the purchasers OF
the property be given unrestricted priv
ileges 10 dispose OF their holdings as
they saw TIT True. the subdivision
with building restrictions was occa-
sionally heard OF, but In most instances
restricted subdivisions were usually In
high class sections, where only the
man OF means was able TO select a

was able 10 thus protect himself against

dent Taft today proclaimed socialism
as the great problem that confronu
the American people-the issue thai

BY its history, he declared. the re

predicted that the American people
must soon determine whether it shall
trust the same party with the salu-

seemed TO impress his hearers. BY
many his words were taken as fran.

The president disclaimed any pur-
pose of making a partisan address,
but the occasion Of his visit here was
the unwilling Of a bronze tablet CON-
memorating the organization of the
republican party, in 1854, and he could
not altogether refrain from a compar-
ison OF the party with its opponents
which was not altogether favorable

He also declared that popular
government must be government of

was just a passing hint at insurgency.
The president declared that unless
individuals are willing 60 sink

In his speech here this afternoon,
the presidents reference TO socialism
