TFrom a stan Correspondent Of The Tribune.l
Beverly. Sept. 14-President TAFT has
outwitted those Democratic members Of
the House who preferred 20 sacrlhce the
workingmen of the country TO permitting
the Republican administration 10 gam
credit for the exceptionally progressive
workmen's compensation act which was
recommended by President Taft passed
by the Senate. and held up in the House
by order of the Democratic leaders.
The President has called on Senator
Switzerland to redraft the act, in so tar
as that is necessary to make its pro-
visions applicable to the workmen on the
Panama Canal. and he has sent the
Iedrafted text TO the law officers of the
Canal Zone, in order that they may de-
termine If anything further remains to
be changed. AS soon as they have ap-
proved the alterations. the President will
promulgate the act as the law Of the
Canal Zone. as he is authorized to do
under the Panama Canal bill, which he
recently approved.
Mr. Taft is an enthusiast on the subject
of this bill, and is convinced that it will
confer the greatest benefits on the work.

gagged in interstate commerce, once the

leves its operation in Panama will serve
30 demonstrate the merits of the measure
and that this will render il all the more
difficult for the Democratic leaders 10
refuse it passage. Furthermore. II there
are any, defects in the bill they viii be
shown, and it will be possible to correct
them before it becomes the law of the
United States.

Reports on Services.
The second and third series of reports
deal, respectively. with the organiza-
tion and activities Of particular services.
and the form of organization for the
performance Of particular business
operations.
One Of the reports of the second Sc

two and a half million dollars each
year. In the opinion of the commission

other services. The commission, there
fore, recommends that it be abolished.

| ing of not less than H,OooOoO a year can
| be made.
Another report illustrating the second
series recommends that the Lighthouse
| and Life Saving Services be administer

| present by two bureaus located in diff

have much in common. Geographically.

less than 100000 annually.
