TAFT BEGINS FIGHT
FOR A CAMPAIGN
PUBLICITY BILL
President Adds New Measure&fo
Program and Expects Con-
gress to Pass 1t. b

WASHINGTON, June s0.--Encour Il
aged by the success that has attended,
his legislative program UP to this the.
President Taft decided today to ma
an issue of the passage by Congress
before the adjournment of the presens
session of the bill providing for tie
publicity of campaign contributions IN
all campaigns affecting Federal offit es.
The President sent for party leaders
in both the House and Senate and told
them his views regarding this piece OF
legislation. Mr.. Taft said that he hadl
made personal pledge during the last
presidential campaign to do what he
could toward furthering the enactment
of a publicity bill.
The President had hesitated to add
this bill to his program, however. while
Congress was devoting itself to those
measures to which the party had def
nitely committed itself in it's platform.
Now that the program is practically
completed, he has decided to bring all
of his influence to bear in behalf OF
the publicity bill.
Today the President secured the con-
sent of Senator Brandegee to tempo
rarily lay the Appalachian forest re-
serve bill aside in order that the pub
licity bill might be given the right OF
way as the unfinished business in the
Senate following the disposition of the
postal savings bank bill. The Presi-
dent does not anticipate any serious
trouble in getting the bill through the
House.
Senators and representatives at the
White House were inclined to the view
that Congress may adjourn some time
between Thursday and Saturday of this
week The President will not be dis
appointed II the session continues un-
til the 30th.

PRESIDENT F. II. SOMMER
RECEIVES LETTER ON RATES.

Frank H. Sommer. president OF the
State Railroad Commission. today re-
ceived the following letter from Fred
erick w. Kelsey. former State commits
sioner of banking and insurance:
ORANGE, June II. 1910.
Hon Frank H. Sommer-As one of
your many friendI, holding in high
esteem what you have done toward the
betterment of civic conditions, 1t seems
20 me regrettable that you and your
associates In the railroad commission
should feel impelled to postpone con-
sideration of the passenger-rate ques-
tfon aHd at the same time announce
your incompetency to act. The present
situation as to your commissions lack
of authority is Just what was intended
and thus far accomplished by thoss
corporate interests which Senator Fre-
linghuysen so emphatically indicates do
not control in legislative and other
State matters, but that the acts OF
public officials so clearly demonstrate
10 control And with the Interstate
Commerce Commission, by Secretary
Wicksrsham, inactive or with similar
excuse for lack of jurisdiction or au-
thority. and the two recently appointea
New Jersey railroad assessors, now
conveniently in the West for q month.
the game of battledore and shuttlecock
goes on and the "infiooence." as
Dooley would say. still hold the fort.
The Governor likewise hesitates and
appeals for public support of his former
attitude for a utility commission en-
powered to right transportation
wrongs. he at the same time. no doubt.
overlooking some of the appointments
he has made-your colleague, Mr.. Hill
lery, for instance-and thus clothing
with official authority men whose en-
tire public records show them to be
diametrically opposed to the railroad
policies he advocates.
1t is interesting to follow the claims
and contentious of the railroad repre-
sentatives In the attempt to Justify the
proposed increase of passenger rates.
Like the argumetns in justification OF
the effort to advance freight rates.
bluff and specious statements appear
in about equal parts. Increase in ex-
penses and taxes? Certainly. Unavoid-
ably--and why not? Why should not y
railroad bear It's share In the current
cost of everything used or labor en-
ployed and pay increases taxes on the
vast increment anc enhanced value Of
its property, Just as do other taxpayers,
from the increase in real values and
advanced ratables?
Again, If rates can be advanced
from this standpoint, why should not
specific rates or the average rates be
very materially reduced from the vast
reduction in cost from enlarged facili-
