ity to substantially reduce duties" by
framing a protective bill along lines
recommended by the tariff board
The message says the specific reason
for dlsapproving the La Toilette bill
is that it was not drafted from the

The message says it would result
in irretrievable injury to the wool

second time has been presented me-
Taft says he will stand by his
pledges to maintain the degree OF
protection necessary to the cost Of
production at home and abroad, but
will approve any bill reducing the
duties to this level.

Contrary to published report yes
terday there has been no strike of
carpenters on the high school con-

been cause for one in the reported
forcing of finishing work before the
building was in readiness" according
to statements made this morning by
Contractor f. A. Friberg of the Ad-
vance Construction company, and w.
+. Brock, member of the school
board. AS a matter of fact, they
state that Foreman Henry Weber
and two carpenters were discharged
Wednesday evening and they induced
four other carpenters 10 quit with
them However. they state that no
delay will be caused in the work. in
asmuch as other men have been Sc
cured.
As far as the charge that the con-
tractor has been forcing them to do
finishing work before the building is
in readiness for such work, both the
contractor and Mr.. Brock declare IT
ridiculous, inasmuch as there IS not
a foot of finishing lumber on the
grounds. I'VE have only just COM

the former.
