CONTINUES FIGHT
FOR TARIFF BOARD
National Association Will
Make Another Appeal.

New York, March AT a meeting of
the directors of the National Tariff
Commission Association, held here to-
day, it was decided by a unanimous vote
to continue during the extra session of
Congress the fight for a permanent sci
entific tariff commission. which the asso-
citation has been carrying on for two
years. and to support in every way posi-
Bile the efforts of President Taft in the
same direction.
The resolutions adopted indicate the at
titude of the directors, who are in no wise
disheartened by the defeat of the tariff
board bill at the last session by the Fitz-
gerald filibuSter.
Tho National Tariff Commission Asso-
citation will continue its efforts to secure
from Congress the enactment Of a salts
factory law. on the lines urged by Presi-
dent Taft from the beginning of his ad-
mlnistlation. creating a permanent in
dependent tariff commission or board, in
tending to maintain this effort until the
desired result is accomplished.
II was also decided that the efforts OF
the association for the enactment Of a
satisfactory law creating a permanent
tariff board be continued actively and
aggressively during the coming special
session of Congress.

association. presided at the meeting OF
the directors, which was held at the

The meeting last night in aid OF the

was most encouraging. If successfully
carried to its contamination, the project
will secure for Washington an audito-
rum worthy OF the National Capital.
The proposed structure must be built

dent that this is one proposition for
which no government aid can be eN-

with indifference any suggestion to

there is no reason to believe that the
attitude OF future Congresses Will be
different in this regard. This fact, how
ever. ought to spur the citizens OF the

ought to be no question as to the ability

required amount. especially as a most
generous and substantial nucleus has al

Practical Business Education.

1t was an inspiration which suggested
the establishment of real bank in the
Business High School. Hitherto the
pupils have been made familiar with the
conduct of financial concerns through
books and theories. Now they are to
deal with real institution, where actual
money will be deposited. where the
ledgers and cash books will record gen
uine transactions. and where the daily,
weekly, and monthly statements must
balance or some one will be held re-
sponsiblc.
The opportunity thus given to the pu
pills to acquaint themselves with the de-
tails OF business operation is OF the ut
most value. There is all the difference
in the world between the real and the
make-believe, and this fact is sure to
impress itself upon the Young people
who arc 10 be intrusted with the man

FLAGLER GOING BLIND.
Standard Oil MaRnate Not Able to
See His Own Signature.

See His Own Signature.
Fruu, the New York Press
Henry NJ. Flagler, the Standard Oil
millionaire, is so nearly blind, his friends
in Wall street heard yesterday, he is
unable to see his signature as he is
writing it. He is eighty-one years old
and for several years his eyesight has
been failing, but that was attributed
chiefly to his age. But that he is in
danger of losing his sight entirely did
not become known to any except his
most intimate friends until a few days
ago.
Flagler is the chief owner of the
Florida East Coast Railroad system, and
within the last week he was called on to
sign contract for the construction of
a branch of the system. Only few per-
sons were present. but the report soon
spread that Flagler had TO write his
signature mechanically. 1t was asserted
he made the signature clearly and per-
fectly, signing his name as accurately as
at any time in the last sixty years, in
which he has signed many business docu-
ments involving millions of dollars.
The millionaire is now in Palm Beach,
Fla. and a friend who saw him there
last week asserts that F'lagler is still
able to see well enough to go around
without an escort. He is extremely SEN
sitive about his affliction. apparently, and
does not want it to become known widely.

military uniforms seen in the streets seem
to him to have decreased to a surprising

reality. however. the apparent increased

unprecedented.

PLAN FOR PANAMA BONDS.

has been general understanding that the
amount issued would be S5O.OO0OOO. but
1t was said in an authoritative quarter
yesterday that the total offer may fall

New Field for Insurance Concerns.

The New York superintendent OF in
surance has approved the plan OF insur-
ance companies to maintain campaigns
against tuberculosis and 10 support nurs-
ing systems established in some OF our
large cities. Ii Is question, howe, or.
whether under the Armstrong law sane
ton is to be given to the expenditures
being made by the companies for this
purpose. We hold that il is as much
within the province Of lie insurance
company to prevent death. if possible. As
to provide indemnifcation in case Of
death
\ lie insurance policy. like fire in
suranCc policy, is only limited guar
antec against Ioss-onc in case Of death,
the other in case OF fire. Just as il is
recognized that it is the proper function
OF the fire insurance companies to pre-
vent losses by fire, as well as to pay for
them after they have been sustained.
50 it seem, 10 be the right thing for life
insurance companies to try to prevent
death by fighting and preventing dis
ease. In fact. it looks to us as though
this were an essential part OF their busi-
ness and that some part OF the large
income OF these companies should be
devoted to that very purpose. We have
before Us the statistics OF large COM
pany proving that Is per cent of all the
death claims paid annually by that con-
Germ are for deaths due to tuberculosis.
If by investment in funds for preventive
measures any part OF these death claim
payments can be avoided. the result
would be lower cost Of life insurance.
Rather than tic the hands OF progress
sivc life insurance concerns BY too much
legislation, every effort to reduce the
death rate and to bring all the country's
life insurance interests into an active
participation in the campaign for the
conservation of human life should be en-
cOuraged.

BALTIMORE SPLIT
IN PRIMARY FIGHT
Friends of Preston and Mayor
MahOOl Are Active.

Baltimore. March This city is hav-
ing one of the liveliest primary fights
ever known. The Democratic machine
has come to the support OF James H.
Preston, while the independents are raj
lying to the aid of Mayor Mahool in the
mayoralty fight. which will be settled
at the primaries April 4.
On the Republican side there is list
lessness which is only explained by the
alleged fact that the Republicans do not
intend TO make an aggressive fight for
the office.
Along with the contest for the nomina-
ton for mayor comes the fight for city
counCilmen. Here the cleavage is about
the same as in the scramble for the
larger honOrs. While the Democrats are
badly split, the inertness of the Repub-
licans forecasts a Democratic victory this
spring.
