The Collapse
of the Taft
Administration

A vigorous and Informative article
by Judson c. Welliver, whose "Is
Roosevelt Inevitable" in "HAMp-
ToN's' for August, created more
discussion than any article of the
day. Mr.. Welliver has the knack
of telling precisely the things we
want to know; the interesting "be-
hind the scenes" which is unknown
to the general public. This article
fully explains why President Taft
has failed and why there is so much
talk about third party. Everyone
who is interested in the political
history that is being made every
day must read MIR. Weivers ex-
