In Special Message Taft Asks
$4,000 to Investigate
Cost of Living.
WANTS ALASKAN ROAD
Executive Says Private Enterprise
Cannot Open Coal Lands and.
Government Must Aid.

The appropriation of $4,000 to enable
the United States to participate in an In
ternationaI inquiry into the high cost
Of living, by which he asks that this
nation take the initiative, was urged in
President Tafts special message on In
terror Department affairs to Congress
yesterday afternoon, and, according to
statements made by members Of the
House, will inset with favorable con-
sideration by Congress.
Other important recommendations in
the message are the suggestion that a
Federal railway be constructed by the
Federal government into ALASKA In TINS
portion of the massage the President de-
, fines his position by explaining that
while opposed TO government ownership,
where private enterprise can accomplish
equally good results. he believes that the
government alone can take up the work
OF opening the Alaskan coal fields by the
building Of railroad.
To Open Alaskan Fields.
The Presidents message follows:
Il am not in favor Of government own
ership where the same certainty and
efficiency Of service can be had by pri-
vate enterprise, but I think the condi-
tions presented in Alaska are Of such
character as 10 warrant the govern
ment for the purpose Of encouraging the
development Of that vast and remarkable
territory, to build and own a trunk line
railroad, which IT can lease on terms
which may be varied and changed TO
meet the growing prosperity and de-
velopment Of the Territory.
There is nothing in the history OF the
United States which affords such just rea-
son for criticism as the failure Of the Fed
ersl government to extend the benefit
OF its fostering care to the Territory OF
Alaska. There was a time, Of course,
when Alaska was regarded as so far re-
moved into the Arctic Ocean as to make
any development of 1t practically impos-
sible, but for years the facts have been
known to those who have been RESPONSE

who has given the subject the slightest
consideration has been aware OF the won
derful possibilities in its growth and de-
velopment II only capital were invested

Il think the United States owes IL,
therefore, to Alaska, and to the people
who have gone there, to take an excep-
tional step and to build a railroad that

Williamson is to be congratulated
on securing team Of strong speak
ers from Portsmouth, Ohio, to be
here and present the Men and Relig-
ion Forward Movement on June 9Th.
The question naturally arises,
What is this movement. 1t is an eff
fort to answer the all important
question, How Can More Men Be
Brought Into the Church, and how
can those who are in the church be
aroused to such activity that We
shall have mighty crusade that
will result in making this a better
world.
The movement had its beginning
on May IS, 1910, when a small group
of Christian men of various religious
organizations met in MOTEL in New
York city. In August Of the same
year, larger group spent day in
hotel at Niagara This meeting re-
suited in getting together in the
month of October, 262 picked men
representing 70 cities, 33 states and
provinces of North America These
met and spent two days in Buffalo
and the movement was launched.
Believing that the churches have
all the machinery or departments
they need it is not the purpose Of
j this forward movement to create any
new machinery but to awaken the
i zeal and strength Of thes men o.
North America and to vitalize al
departments of church activity b,
showing MEN the large things tina
may be accomplished when strong
brave men put their hands to thu
