1T REMOVES EXISTING DOUBT
NOW KNOWN FOR A CERTAINTY
THAT Mr.. TAFT WILL DIS
APPROVE STATEHOOD
OTHER DOIEGS in CONGRESS
THE WOOL BILL REPORTED AND
PASSED BY OVERWHELMING
VOTE.

Washington, Aug. 14.-President
Taft's veto message on the New Mex
ico-Arizona statehood resolution will
not be sent to congress today. A de
cision to this effect was reached this
morning during special session oi
the cabinet, which lasted more than
two hours. The message probably
will remain at the White House until
the presidents return from Ocean
Grove, N. j., on Wednesday. From
this information, it is made positive
that President Taft will veto the state
hood resolution because of the recall
provision contained in the Arizona
constitutional, which is made to apply
to the judiciary. Until today it was
not definitely known exactly what view
the chief executive would take. some
holding out the hope that the presi-
dent would allow the resolution to be-
come effective by limitation. How
ever, those close to Mr.. Taft have had
no hesitancy in declaring that the Judi
ciary recall provision would result in
the statehood beasure being vetoed.

A bill requiring that decisions by
the supreme court of the United States
on questions affecting the "constitu-
tionality of any provision of general
or state law must be unanimous" was
today by Senator Bourne
of Oregon. 1t was attacked by Sen
ator Hepburn of Idaho as an "oddity"
or fad of the day, which attempts to
increase the power of minorities.
The wool bill conferees reported a |
complete agreement ebtween the two |
houses of congress to the house today. |
The report was made by Representa-
i've Underwood. Republican Leader |
Mann at once made point of order
hat the report could not be consid.
cred because the conferees had ex
ceeded their authority by fixing tariff
rates on certain manufactures of wool
higher than the same rates as made in
either the house or the senate bill.
TIE conference report carrying a
flat duty of 29 per cent on raw woods
on wool manufactures was adopted |
this afternoon, 2O6 to 80. The senate
is expected to agree to it tomorrow.
thus putting the measure up to the |
presidents expected veto. Twenty
nine republican representative and |

the bill. No Democrats voted against
it.
