In thirty years of life, Christian En-
deavOr has never yet adequately called
the roll of its achievement Doubt
less it is impossible to do so: spiritual
forces may not be measured by any of
mans scales. A fair and dispassionate
and disinterested review of what this
movement has done is yet to be writ
somebody who has not himself been a
part of the great achievem ents to be
recorded. This is a worthy field for
some Endeavorer gifted with the pen.
The story must trace the influence of
Christian Endeavor upon the public
life of our time; its relation to the
quickened consciousness of the nation;

TAFT CONSIDERS
 BANKERS PAROLE
WILL DECIDE AS TO MORSE AND WALSH PRISON PAROLES TO-
 MORROW.
Great Influence Has Been Brought to Bear in Both Cases Which Are
 Being Watched With Interest.

Washington, March S.-President Taft will leave for the south tomor- row and will take with him for final consideration the appeal for pardon, which has been made by John l. Walsh and Charles W. Morse. The president will study the cases and be- fore he returns to Washington, both men probably will lsnow whether they are to be free or are to stay in the federal prisons
 Attorney General Wickersham, aft CT several weeks of investigation of both cases, will turn over all the papers to the president tomorrow with his recommendation.
 Walsh will be eligible for release ion parole under the new law next September. He then will have served one-third of his five-year sentenced. His attorneys, however, have present ed in the plea for pardon that if the |aged banker is not released before that time he may never live to enjoy ais liberty. 1t is understood that offi- |cial investigation seems to substan- tiate that claim.
 Morse. in the Atlanta prison, has served a little more than one year of la fifteen-year sentence and could not be paroled until 1915. Great influence has been brought to bear at least to secure communication of his sentence to five years years, which would per nit his discharge after two years and eight months more of imprisonment, making allowances for good behavior. Former Senator Hale, of Maine, has taken an active interest in Morse's behalf and be presented to President Taft Mrs. Morse's petition for the re- lease Of her husband.
 The contention in his case is that | the sentence of fifteen years was ex- cessive. Although the first court found him guilty and sentenced aim on three counts, the higher courts clear ed him of two charges, but the sen tence for all three was allowed to stand
 l Attorney General Wickersham s recommendation arc confidential to the President, but it is understood the attitude of the department of justice
 is in favor of granting clemency.
