GREAT SAVING POSSIBLE
Joint Printing Investigation Com
mission May Conclude to Abol-
ish Branch Offices.

Especial 10 The Herald Republican
Washington. March 1S.-The Joint print
ing investigation commission, OF which
Senator Smoot is chairman and Charles
NJ. Morris secretary, last evening held a
public hearing as a part of the investi-
cation which the commission is pursuing
into the methods of the government
printing office.
Witnesses were heard from the depart
ments where the printing office has
branch offices and they were interro-
gated as to the advisa bility of continuing
these branches.
1t is estimated that good deal of
money could be saved by aboiishing them.
The commission will hold these hearings
from now on weekly or semi-weekIy. and
It is hoped to effect a great economy
for the government.

Present Congress as Republi-
can Body Must Redeem the
Promises Made by Party and
Let Future Care for Itself.
TAFT SAYS FRIENDS SAY
HE is BAD POLITICIAN
Members of Congress, PreSi-
dent Says, Must Sacrifice
Their Individual Opinions to
Fulfill the Party Pledges.
GIVEN A WARM WELCOME

Rochester, N. Y, March 49,
President Taft tonight in a speech
before the Chamber of Commerce ap-
pealed to members of Congress to
sacrifice their Individual opinions
that the platform promises of the Re-
publican party might be fulfilled and
hoped the party would show that it
has ''the sense and the discipline to
meet its responsibilities"
The impression had got abroad
that the President might have some
thing to say tonight on the acute
situation in the House of Represent
atives at Washington, but this was
his nearest reference to the subject.
At one point of his speech, which was
devoted entirely to the legislation he had
recommended in the last few months. the
President further declared: IF this Con-
gress is to be treated as Republican
Congress, these things ought to pass in
fulfillment of party pledges. After this
is done, it does not matter what happens
at the next election We will have done
something for which the country will be
grateful, whether ii thinks II ought TO
express this gratitude III the immediate
future or no."
Great Applause for Taft.
Mr.. Taft constantly was interrupted by
applause, and when, toward the end of
his remarks, he declared with great en-
phasis, he had tried as President to do
what he believed was right, rather than
those things that would bring political
strength, the audience of nearly LOW
business men stood up ana cheered FOR
several minutes. The President spoke
with great earnestness throughout lie
declared he had been told he was no pol
He believed, however, in the end the peo-
pie would find the measures recommended
to Congress were right and that right,
after all, was the very best Of politics.
Mr. Tafts greeting tonight was the
most demOnstrative he has had in his re-
cent travels. He was followed as a
speaker at the banquet by President W.
c. Brown of the New York Central rail-
road, who paid a glowing tribute TO Mr.
Taft and told of the progress and sta
bility that had come to the business
world since his inauguration
President Taft summed up the things
he declared had caused some of his ad-
visers TO characterize him as bad poll
tician.
First. he said, there was the tariff law.
and a new tariff bill always defeats a
party.
Second had come the corporation tax,
bringing with it the enmity of every
body directly or Indirectly interested in
the more than 100000 corporations af-
fected.
Third. there was the alleged" postal
deficit, which had been charged to the
carrying of magazines and periodicals at

Daytonia. Fla, March 1S.-At o'clock

 Crippen was under cross-examination for practically four hours. When the defendant was excused from the box, Dr. Turnbull, director of the pathological in- stitute of the Gordon hospital, was called for the defense.
