children, and it became unbearable.
He says Nine. Schumann Heink is now
worth $4,000 almost all of which,
he intimates, is due to his manage

WASHINGTON Jan. 17-How the
people OF the United States may have

annually in the operation OF their
governmental machinery was outlined
by President Taft today in a message
to congress on economy and effici-

What the government does with
nearly 81, 1,000,00O,O0O each year." said
the President ''is of as much con-
Germ to the average citizen as is the
manner of obtaining this amount Of
money for the public use."
Probably the most radical proposal

message was that all administrative
officers Of the government in the de-
partments at Washington and in the
field be put under the civil service: be

limited as at present to four years.
Such officers should be appointed by
the President with the necessity of
senate confirmation, he said, but upon
merit. "The extension of the merit
system to these officers and a needed
readjustment of services" said he
"will have important effect in secur-
ing greater economy and efficiency.
