AGAINST PICKETT MEASURE.

Not Satisfied with Provisions.

National Conservation Association
Not Satisfied with Provisions.
The National Conservation Association,
OF which Clifford Plnchot is president. is
not satisfied with the Picket bill, provid-
ing for the withdrawal OF public lands
despite the fact that the measure. which
has the approval Of President Taft. was
reported favorably by the House Com
mittee on Public Lands and was passed
by the House last week.
The association has issued circular,
stating that this bill as 1t now stands
Is a step IN the right direction, but II
fails TO authorize definitely the perma-
nent withdrawal OF water-power sites In
the public domain and provides only for
their withdrawal pending final action by
Congress"

BUTTER FALLS TWO CENTS.
Permanently of Chicago Reduction
Depends Upon EIgin.

Chicago, April PA reduction Of .
cents a pound was announced In the
cost Of all grades Of creamery and dairy
butter yesterday. Jobbers also lowered
their prices TO the retailers. but they ad-
mitted that the reduction would not be
permanent unless the decline in quota
tions OF the butter board here was fol-
lowed by a Ike decline in prices at Elgln
tomorrow.
Fancy creamery butter was brought 10
% cents a pound by the decline. This IS
cents lower than the official Elgin quo
tation. This difference will furnish the
Chicago delegation with an incentive for
demanding q big reduction in quotations
at Elgln when they assemble on the ex-
change floor in the latter city tomorrow.

TAFT SEEKS OHIO SUPPORT.
Urges Congressional Delegation TO
Push HIS Legislative Programme.

President TAFT last night asked ten
members OF the Ohio Congressional dele
cation TO support his legislative pro-
gramme. and particularly the railroad
bill. the postal savings bank bill. and the
anti-injunCtiOn bill.
The president made his request at the
White House. where he talked about the
legislative situation with ten members Of
the House from Ohio for more than two
hours.
The President thought. according to
some Of the Ohioans, that just now the
railroad bill should be pushed. Later he
expressed the hope that the Ohioans
might lead the movement for a Republi-
can caucus on the postal savings bank
bill. The President appeared optimistic.

The Republican leaders IN the House

when the railroad b'I is scheduled for
passage. There is a good deal Of work
yet remaining TO be done by the lower
branch Of Congress. and those responsi-
bic for it will feel better when all of the
big bills are out Of the way and the
question OF the date Of adjournment Is
largely up to the Senate.
After the railroad bill is put out OF the
way for a time. so far as the House is
concerned. the sundry civil bill. which
is the biggest and most bothersome ap-
preparation measure on the list will be
taken Up. II usually takes ten full legis-
lative days TO pass this bin. but this

This. OF course. IS difficult in connee-

measures Are Uncertain.
II was hoped that after the sundry
civil bill has been passed the postal
savings bank legislation, which IS much
desired by the administration, and TO
which both the Republican and Demo
cratic parties are pledged by planks in
their national platform. can be tackled.
But as the House Post-ofice Committee
is split on the subject. with only two
members favOring the postal savings bank
bill as II came from the Senate-and
these two not enthusiastic-it Is not be-
leved II viii be possible 20 put any
measure before the House in the near
future. Chairman Weeks, Of the com
m.ttee. has repeatedly said that he thinks
the House Republicans should caucus on
the proposition. There is opposition 10
this plan, however, as some members
contend that it would look foolish 10
caucus on legislation pledged by the party
and advocated by the President While
everybody seems 90 agree that a postal
savings bank bill viii pass Congress al
this session. IL looks as II the inevitable
would be delayed as long as possible.
In consequence, the anr-lnjunction bill
introduced by Representative Moon, OF
/ Pennsylvania. and favorahly reported q
month or so ago by the House Committee
on Revision Of the Laws, Of which he IS
chairman. viii probably follow the sun
dry civil bill IN the House. President
/ Taft gave unqualified Endorsement 10 this
measure in O. letter written 70 MI Moon
/ some weeks ago. The bill probably will
/ pass about as IL came from the commit
/ tee after the consttuticnaIlsts lawyers.
and statutory hair-splitters In the House
( have had their say.
Conservation Legislation Outlook.
/ Conservation legislation desired by the
/ administration is in fair shape so far as
/ the House is concerned. The bill au-
/ thorizing Withdrawals Of land by the
/ President was passed last week. after
I every amendment Of Importance sug-
/ gested by Representative MondeU. OF
/ Wyoming, chairman OF the Public Lands
/ Committee. and who is understood TO be
/ opposed 10 the Presidents conservation
policies, had been turned down The
I House rode rOuEhshod over Mr.. MondeU
and his Republican colleagues on the
committee who indorsed his views. and
this IS taken as an indication that the
/ administration policies in this direction
Will have the support Of majority OF
the body.
The bills proposing Statehood for Arl-
IONA seem 10 be In a state OF coma one
measure has passed the House and one
the Senate. They are not at all similar
and the two bodies seem 10 entertain
violent differences OF opinion on this
subject.
Altogether. the House is in good shape
Republican leaders say, and there should
be no difficulty in final adjournment b
June I, at the latest, so far as the lower
branch is concerned
But there never was more uncertainty
about an adjournment date. There ar,
some rosy specialized optimists wht
think the legislators will get away from
here between May Is and 80. while, OF
the other hand. the pessimistic member!
are confident it will be far into July be
fore the gavels fall for the last time.
