THE BEST POSSIBLE
PRESIDENT TAFT'S POSITION ON
THE TARIFF QUESTION.
Measure Passed by Congress, When
II Has Been Tried Out by the
Country, Will Bear Out Chief
Executives Endorsement.

Some months ago an Indianian OF
the name of Foulke. who had support
ed Mr. Taft for president, wrote him
in a tone of criticism of the admins
tration, especially as regards the tar
if question. The president replied,
in terms, it was said, of pith and
point. But the correspondence was
not published. All known about it is
of a general character
It is now stated that a Mr.. Swift,
another Indianian who voted the Re-
publican ticket in 1908, has in letter
to the president entered a protest
against the new tariff law, and taken
a fling at Mr.. Aldrich and Mr., Cannon,
Mr. Taft has replied to him pointedly.
but the letters are withheld.
While the full text of the letters in
both of these cases would be interest
ing, what circulates without contradic-
tiou about them is sufficient to afford
good text for comment. And one
may ask the question, Did Mr.. Foulke
and Mr.. Swift expect Mr.. Taft to join
in the insurgent anlmadversions on
WI. Nibi lNli anu A'tl NtiiAiC'' 80 49,
consulting with them about tariff re-
vision, and cooperating with them in
bringing it about, was he to be eX-
pected to acquiesce in, or even listen
in silence to, denunciatiuns of them
and their work?
Both the president and his party in
congress confronted most difficult
elf CT thn mr.
liminary maneuvering and parleyings.
they stood at soliloquy and asked
themselves: To revise, or not TO re-
wise? That was the question. The
business world was all impatience and
anxiety for action. Delay was ex-
pensive. A tariff bill--some bill-was
absolutely necessary Adjournment
of the extra session without a bill
would not only be confession of in
competency on the part of the Repub-
licans, but blow to the business
world. The period of uncertainty
would be prolonged, and all values
injuriously affected.
In the very nature of things the
measure must be OF a compromise
character. Nobody could reasonably
hope to be entirely satisfied, On GER
tain points the Star is in hearty SYM
pathy with downward revisionists. A
compromise, as we all know, was at
last effected. and it had the indorse-
ment, first of very large majority
of the Republicans in both houses. of
congress, and then of the president.
The country will pass upon the meas
ure in November. But does any frank
and open man expect the president
meanwhile to cut and run, or begin

the performance ?-Washington (IndD

ReaI Leaders of Party.

The Importance to the party of up
right leadership was indicated by
President Taft in his tributes to ex.
President Roosevelt and to Gov.
Hughes of New York state. The Re
publican partys principles are all
right; all that is needed is right men
to carry them out. Such apostles OF
righteousness the party has found in

NEED FOR YOUNGER ADMIRALS
Weak Spct in Navy Called TO the At
tention of the Country by the
President

President Taft's message to con
gress advocating reform in the navy
personnel indicates plainly the lines
along which the administration is
working to correct what is believed to
be a weak spot in our naval establish
ment Our admirals now reach flag
rank so late in life that they are ready
for the retired list before they can do
any efficient work III the command of
squadrons or fleets. 1t is desired that
officers should reach flag rank at an
early enough age to have six or eight
years of active service ahead of them
as flag officers.
In practically all other navies the
grade of rear admiral is reached at a
much younger age than is the case
with us. Thus, on January /, 1910, the
average age of rear admirals in the
various navies was as follows: Jap
anese, so; German 81; British, So;
Austrian, So; Italian. Sc; French, 50,
and Americans COZ. 1t will thus be
seen that our rear admirals are much
older than officers of similar rank in
other first-class navies, more than ten
years older than Japanese officers and
seven years older on the average than
British officers.
The only practical way of reducing
the age at which officers reach COM
mand and flag rank is to adopt the
methods by which that result is Sc
cured in other navies. Practically all
of them have the eGe-in-gra retire
ment provision, by which every officer
from the grade of lieutenant up is
automatically retired on reaching
given age unless he has been pro-
noted to the next higher grade. Thus,
it might be provided that every COM
mander who reached As years without
promotion to captain must be retired,
and, similarly, every captain who has
reached 53 or 50 without advancement
must go to the retired list An ar
rangement of that kind would do in
justice TO no one as would system of
selection, while it would provide
younger admirals with certainty.
