OF the higher Alps.
Inc men, as is usual, were tied to-

was at the end of the rope.
Without his weight there was q
chance for the others to regain their

next him:

be held in Washington I'm 1915 have
never demurred to other expositions of a
similar character. denoting the local or
to certain limited extent the ma

this event. 1t has been recognized from
the outset that certain cities, having q
large commercial interest in the compile
ton of the waterway. would in any event
desire to celebrate the canals completion
whatever might be done by the govern
ment itself at the National Capital. Thus
.here is no essential antagonism between
the proposal to hold an International ex-
position here and that to hold a canal
fair at San Francisco in the year of the
opening.
President TAFT last night at the Cali

for two fairs. one on the Atlantic coast
and one on the Pacific. The circum-
stances virtually compelled him to be
specific as to the location of the western
exposition. inasmuch as the dinner was,
so to speak. in the interest of the "San

subject of pensions for the members of

familiar to all the older members Of the
House and Senate, for il has been dis
cussed freely for a number of years as
efforts have been made from time to time
to promote the efficiency of this valuable
branch of the public works. and at the
same time to accord just treatment to
the sacrificing men who offer themselves
for this hazardous duty. A short time
ago Congress was confronted with an
emergency. large numbers of the life
saving service men resigning because of
the niiserably low pay. 1t was impossi-
bic to meet the demands OF the system.

The possibility Of an unpatrolled coast
line became imminent. Congress met
this situation by adopting one of the two
effective remedies. increasing the paw
scale of the service. 1t failed. however.
TO grant the urgently necessary relief
OF a pension system to encourage con-
finuity in the service and to permit the
humane retirement OF veterans

increase in the pay scale to enable the
employees in the service to maintain them

cost OF the necessities OF life. and also
