WE MUCH NEED BUSINESS HEAD
Builder of Railroads Declares Business
Training Is Needed for
Presidency.

New York.-Arthur Edward Stilwell,
president of the Kansas, Mexico &
Orient railway, in recent interview
made a powerful plea for the railroads
of the United States and a "square
deal" on the rate question. He stoutly
maintains it is necessary to business
welfare of the nation.
"We need a business man at the head
of the government of this progressive
republic" Mr.. Stillwell said. "Mr
Taft is a fine gentleman, with a judi
cial mind, but his experiepce with law
could not have been such as to give
him correct understanding of the
natural needs of the United States.
"Only an organizer-a so-called cap.
tain of ndustry-possessed with such
faculties as the late Marshall Field
George Pullman or Andrew Carnegie, in
my opinion-would have the Judgment
to guide the country clear of the fnan
cial disturbances that are constant
menace to our growth. -

Roosevelt and
Taft Confer

Following are apparent results of
the Taft-Roosevelt conference Tuesday
at New Haven:
So far as the situation in New York
state goes, where there is war between
Colonel Roosevelt and the old guard,
the president stands squarely on his
letter of August 20 to Lloyd G. Girls
com, in which he defined his attitude
at length.
The shadow of 1919 hung over the
meeting which did not appear to be
characterized by the old cordiality be-
tween the president and the colonel,
recent event operating as bar to any
better understanding between the two.
The question of the presidency of
1912 was not discussed.
The president is willing to run again
if he is renominated, but he intends to
leave that TO his friends. He is not
hunting delegates.
Colonel Roosevelt expressed himself
as gratified at "a very pleasant inter-
view" and an entirely satisfactory
talk" He reiterated with emphasis
that he will not run for governor and
that if the convention stampeded for
him he would refuse the nomination.
