Taft for whatever influence the
President might have exercised IN
the governments suit to dissolve the
United States Steel Corporation. Mr.
Hill said that he endorsed President
Taft i'll the matter, even though
other so-called captains of industry
had been reported as offering cr1tl-
cism The railway builder, however,
did not intimate that he approved OF
the law under which the proceedings
have been instituted.
Among the defendants in the dis
solution suit are three sons of Mr..

'The President has taken an oath
to enforce the law" Mr.. Hill SAID
"and he is only doing his duty.
Whether the law is wise or unW1se

Can Taft Vote?

Chicago Oct 30.@PreSident Taft,
who frequently refers to himself as
the "titular head of the Republican
party" was in a .quandary last night.
The President does not know Wheth-
er he's qualified voter any more. He
doesn't know whether the election
authorities in Cincinnati, his home
city, intend to let him cast a ballot
in the city elections next Tuesday.
More than two weeks ago Mr.. Taft
made out his registrations papers,
mailed them from the Pacific coast
and thought no more about the mat
ter. "A few days later the President
was notified by the Cincinnati cleo
ton board that he had failed to have
the proper affidavit made out to ac-
company the papers. At Newcastle,
Wyo., where he was the guest OF
Congressman Mondell, the President
worked until late at night making out
new papers and the necessary affi-
davit. The mails from Newcastle that
night carried the papers to Gin
cinnati.
Today Secretary Hilles was notified
evidently on good authority, that the
President had failed to register pro-
perly in time and Mr.. Taft took up
his day in Chicago convinced that
while he might visit Cincinnati on
election day, he could not vote.
Later in the day word came from
Cincinnati that the whole matter had
been put up to Secretary Of State
Graves of Ohio and that it was not
definitely settled. Today Mr.. Taft IS
wondering what will be the outcome
He is going to Cincinnati anyhow
but he would like to vote if posi-

MIR. WOODARD CONTENDS

New York, Oct. 30-Attorneys for
the government, for the American
Tobacco Company, the farmers, in
dependent tobacco manufacturers and
all who oppose the proposed plan of
dissolution of the American Tobacco
Company are here to appear at the
hearings this week.
A statement of the governments
attitude toward the proposed reor-
gan1ZatlOn filed with the United
States as soon as the hearings be-
gin. 1t is understood that the gov
ernment may insist on a different di-
vision of the ownership of certain
brands than is now proposed. The
governments attorneys think a diff
ferent division would be more con-
ductive to competition.
Mr.. S. A. Woodard Of this city
left Saturday night for New York
city. He will be joined in Washing
ton by E. J. Justice, of Greensboro.
They will proceed to New York,
where they go in the interest of the
Farmers Union of North Carolina
to represent them in the matter of
the reorganization of the American
Tobacco Company.
Mr.. WOOdard will ask that a re
ceiver be appointed for the American
Tobacco Company and will contend
that no Individual stockholder shall
hold stock in any of the fourteen pro-
posed companies, except one com
pany. He will ask for a list and state
ments Of preferred stockholders and
the number of shares they hold. He
has proof that the American Tobacco
Company are offering rebates and
free goods in some States and are
selling at regular prices in others,
which they are positively forbidden
to do by decree of the Supreme Court
of the United States.
He is also prepared to prove that
Piedmont cigarettes have been sold
outside Of Wilson by a jobber to a re-
taller within the past two weeks at
a less price per thousand than they
are sold to retailers in Wilson by
jobberS.
