WAsHIHoToN. Feb. 7a.-President Taft
10 going 90 follow the example set by
President Roosevelt and gite the 8psaksg
81 the House a dinner At the white HOUSE.
In Mr.. Roossvelt's administration the
question % who should take prscedencs
in Washington Ofiicial life. the Vice
President or the Speaker OG the House
was raised by Speaker Cannon when he
declined an invitation to q Cabinst din
ner at the White House because he was
TO he outranked by the vics-Pre~ident
Uncle Joe isn't At all fnicky about such
matters. hut he felt then that he was
standing for the honor Of the HOUSE.
The question stirred up a good deal Of
discussion at the time and Mr.. ROoss-
welt finally smoothed things over by
giving ths Speaker an Official dinner Of
his own.
House up 20 that time were the diplomatic
dinner. che Cabinet dinner and the judicial
dinner The Roosevelt dinner to the
Speaker apparently was arranged 60
meet am emergency but Mr.. Taft Rppar-
entity Intends IN make this dinner q
regular feature Of the White HcGse
programme.
The dinner will be held on Thursday
night A. far as could he learned the
guests will be members Of the House only
With the possible exception OF senator
Gordon 81 Mississippi. who has ended
his term Of service in the senate and will
leave Washington in n few days. There
will be- fifty or more guests.
Several Republican members Of the
House who heard Of the dinner wondered
II this wasn't pretty good evidence that
Uncle Joe ~ standing on a fairly strong
footing with the White House after all.
IL il known that MIR. Taft has had very
little sympathy with some OF the Repub-
loans Who have been 80 bitter in their
attacks on the Speaker. Persons who
have talked with Mr.. Taft recently saw
that while he ~ far from approving many
things the Speaker has done hs does
believe that the present widespread abuse
OF Mr. Cannon ~ unmerited.
