TAFT WILL TOUR
WEST SIX WEEKS
Journey Will Rival "SWing
Around Circuit Of 1907.
PLANS ARE ALL COMPLETE.
President Viii Stop In Big CIties
Of All Progressive States--On
Last 6.s Trip He Did
1900 Miles.

Washington Plans for President
Taft's coming trip through the West
and to the Pacific Coast practically
were completed Monday The jour
ney will be almost as extensive as
that taken by the President on his
famous Swing around the circle in
1909, when he travelled more than
thirteen thousand miles and visited
thirty-three States. He will break
ground for the Panama Canal Expo
sition at San Francisco, make several
score of addresses and attempt to
scale the fourteen thousand feet OF
Mount Rainer's precipitious slope.
According to the present arrange
ment the President will be gone six
weeks. In that time it is expected
that he will make close to two hun
dred speeches, from platforms from
the rear end of his private car and
at other places not on the regular
schedule X
Until the question of adjournment
of Congress was out of the way, the
President was undecided as to whether
he should be gone three weeks or six.
With adjournment practically as
sured for this week the President
feels that he can get three weeks
rest at Beverly and be I'M trim then to
stand the admittedly hard grind of
forty days in private car
The President probably will leave
Beverly September II, returning east
about November l. He will go west
through Iowa, Kansas, Nebraska,
Colorado, and Nevada to the coast.
Most of the big cities in these States
including Des Moines, Kansas City,
Omaha, Denver and Salt Lake will be
visited, but the plans for the trip
contemplate stops at scores OF
smaller places as we'll. From Cali
fornia the President will go North to
Portland and Seattle Three days
are to be passed in Washington State
and the route eastward will allow
him to stop in Idaho, Montana, the
Dakotas and Minnesota.
While no 'spellbinders'' are to be
taken along, it is probable that mem
bers of the cabinet or Congressman
will become travelling companions Of
the President at various points en-
route. Topics for the Presidents adj
dress will not be hard to find, the
party leaders say.

Experts Of the federal hospital serv-
Ice have been compiling data from the
census reports that make striking
showing Of the cost of disease in this
country and emphasize the necessity
Of more rigid enforcement. particular

designed to safeguard the public

this country in the value of lives de-
stroyed. $250.000.000 year and the

cal attendance and loss of wages is

Pioneer Press. The census reports
estimate the value of the $4,000 lives
lost annually from typhoid fever at

that the total loss from contagious
diseases. including tuberculosis, is
$750. 100000 a year. of which 40 per

The cost Of prevention would be a
mere fraction of the cost Of preventa-
BILE diseases and there should be no
false economy in expenditures for the
campaign against contagion. The
health of the people is the greatest as

Department of Agriculture, embrac-
ing copies of pure food decisions or
regulations changed through the
protests of interested manufacture
ers," will be called for by the House
Committee that is investigating the
charges against Dr. Harvey w. Wiley.
DIR. Wiley, who made the request
for the records, explained that they
were official printed regulations and
decisions, which had later been with
drawn and changed after the inter-
ested parties, the food manufactur-
ers, had protested against them.
DR.. Wiley stated that DR.. Dunlap,
the associate chemist, held the opin-
ion that no decisions of the food and
drug board were official unless he
Dunlap signed them.
Asked what Solicitor McCabe had
to do with the deciding what was
whisky, DR.. Wiley said:
II would rather let him state"
DIR. Wiley, describing his famous
-poison squad experiments, said:
Il took up the experiments with
borax first to get experience for what
considered more important expert
ments. / did not think it was harm
full when began"
DR.. Wiley said two of his reports
on these Investigations had not been
published.

of Agriculture Wilson all about the
proposed employment of DR.. H. H.
Rusby, of New York
81 wanted him to know all the fea-
lures of the case before acting ON
It," said DR.. Wiley.
After the Secretary had approved,
DR.. Wiley told of figuring out that
$4,000 was too much for DR.. Rusby
and of having the Secretary reduce it
to $1,000. Again he denied that
anything was said about DR.. Rusby
working only 80 days a year as he
presented the matter to Secretary
Wilson.

Michigan, chairman of the Com
