Beverly, Mass, July 24-In the frs
statement he has made since tn
passage Of the reciprocity bill by th
senate, President Taft, at the sum
mer white house last night, freel
acknowledged that his long hard cam
paign in behslf of that measure
would have proved unavailing If tn
Democrats had not helped him. With
out such aid, the. president declared
reciprocity would have been ''impos
sible." ..s
"The Democrats did not play poll
tics in te colloquial sense in whicl
those words are used" said the presi
dent, "but they followed the dictst
Of higher policy"
For Secretary Knox and his assist
ants in the state department, VIII
conducted the negotiations and fran
ed the act, the president said NOR
than wore Of praise. Those Repub
licsns. he said, who fought for reci
lprocity, "and some of whose vote
were necessary to the passage of tn
bill, may properly enjoy mutual fell
citations on a work we'll DONE"
In his own Judgment, the presiden
declared. the agreement would mar
ian epoch In the relations betweel
the United States and Canada an
those who opposed the bill in con
Igress would find their prophecies dis
proved and their fears allayed by It
actual operation. It's passage by tn
Canadian parltsment, the last ste
before 1t becomes bond between tn
two countries. he hopes and believe
would be forthcoming.
On the way from Washington th
president had time for a long cha
with Senator Penrose, who had le
the fight for reciprocity, and with Sec
Iretary Of the Treasury Macveagh an
Secretary Hilles. Mr.. Penrose lei
him at Philadelphia, Secretary. Hille
Iat Newark, N. j., and Mr.. Macveagl
deserted the party at Boston. Tn
president had been thinking about
statement. however. and after "sleep
ing over IT," as he put 1t today. decid
led that 1t should be written and tina
credit should be given where credi
was due. s, ii. 45 a @
