original statement as signed by Kerby.

WASHINGTON. May 1s.-In one

his predecessors beaten block
Whether he is making good as a presi

statesmanly record as a traveller.
Taft is the champion globe trot'
terp of all the worlds rulers. He has
travelled farther and been away from

the first 10 American presidents com

President Taft has made 22 in
dividual trips from Washington since
hts inauguration. just a little over 10
months ago. One trip took him prac-
tIcally over the entire country and in

white house" was on the go sc days.
He spent 1O8 days OF his first $50

Once he did get out west, but the

With the exception of a few east

likely that William will be on hand to

the frightening OF this session OF
congress has put a damper on that

But this does not mean that the
