and supporter of Senator LaF'ollette in his
campaign for the republican presiden-
tial nomination. may be treasurer of
the democratic national campaign COM
mittee. GOV. woodrow Wilson had the
name of Mr.. Crane under consideration
today The only announcement the

that the name would be withheld until
it could be determined whether the
man selected would accept.
Mr.. Crane. who was appointed by
President Taft in July, 1909. as min

october of the same year Just as he
was leaving for the orient. is known
to have leaned favorably toward the
candidacy of Governor Wilson. having
so expressed himself on a recent visit
to Seagirt In company with President
Van Hise of the University of Wis
consin.
The announcement that Joseph T..
Davies of Wisconsin, secretary of the
national campaign. would be In Chicago
for the Wilson headquarters in Chi
cago. acting there also as assistant
treasurer, added some strength to the
probability that Mr.. Crane would be
selected as national committee treas
urer because of the friendship between
Messrs Davies and Crane.
1t Is known that many of the mem
bers of the national committee have
been deslrous of having man out
side OF New York city appointed and
that the name OF Mr.. Crane has been
within the last week set before Ma
tional Chairman Mccombs, who placed

House Features of This
Weeks Session

washington. August 4.-Congress
will begin tomorrow what Is expected
to be the last fortnight OF the pres

Uncertainty exists as to the fate of
some of the appropriation bills stih
at issue between the Senate and House.
The determination to abolish tho com
merce court and to place a seven-year
tenure of office in the civil service law
has aroused antagonism which may bs
reflected from the White House in
veto of the bill appropriatlng money
for the salaries of federal employees.
This contingency has been antici-
pated by the leaders of both houses
and an effort is to be made Monday
to complete the legislative. executive
and judicial appropriation bill SO 1t
may be sent at once to the President.
In case of an executive veto 1t is be-
lieved il can again be considered,
passed and resubmitted to him IN
amended form without seriously delay
ing plans for adjournment.
Features of This Weeks Session
Action on tariff bills and a reopening
of tho two battleship bills fight in the
House will be features of this week
session. The Senate will act on the
compromise wool tariff bill tomorrow

dents friends in both houses that he

made ar this session to repass the
measures.

political leaders in New York, none saw
hom. In fact, Governor Wilson talked
politics with National Chairman MeCombs
just four hours, slept II hours and re-
elined in the reading room of the Uni

where the election for governor Is held
early in September 1t has not yet been
decided, however, whether Governor VIII
son will speak in Maine. Some of Govern
or Wilson'S friends do not wish him TO
enter Maine because they believe the ma

the local issue of prohibition. The ma
tional campaign committee. however, is
giving its attention to New England
states particularly Maine. and important
announcements in this connection are ex-
pected soon.

OBITUARY..
MR.. ROBERT BALLINETINE.

Mr.. Robert Ballinetine died at his
home in Weybridge on Thursday, De-
cember 10, after an illness of one week.
He was stricken on the morning of
December IL with another shock and
never rallied from the stroke
He leaves a son and daughter, Robert
W. Ballinetne of Chicopee Falls, Mass,
and Cora f. Ballnetine of Weybridge
His wife, Della Ann, whom he has never
ceased to mourn, preceded him to the
Eternal Rest nine years ago. A sister,
Mrs. Fife Pratt of Meriden, Conn, will
ever cherish the memory OF a brother,
who was worthy of her truest affection
A large and devoted circle of friends
will revere the memory of Robert" as
he was tenderly called, for his word of
CHEEKY greeting and his familiar form
We're well known in Middlebury, where
for thirtythree years he worked for the
late Col. A. A. Fletcher, and the neigh
boring town of Bridport The friends,
with whom he had lived for only short
time in Weybridge, proved their devo-
ton to his real worth by many kindly
acts of true sympathy.
The old neighbors in Middlebury
showed marked expression of their grief
at his loss. The writer, to whom he
revealed the devotion of a father, will
miss helpful and CHEEKY friend from
his home.
The funeral service was conducted by
the Rev. K. w. Hallowell. C. M.
Baker and his daughter Emma rendered
the selections THE Heavenly Place, 8"
and "Sleep Thy Last Sleep" most
tenderly. The floral tributes were rich
and beautiful. Interment was made in
the West cemetery with full Masonic
honors. A. J. Blackmer officiated with
his usual kindly tact and decorum.

schools.
"Chidren who stutter should not be
allowed to come in contact with other
pupils until cured. This will prevent
the contagion through mimicry."
Few people" he'says, "reaize the
anguish, crushed ambitions and blighted
lives-.ending sometimes in sef-destruc-
ton.
"Some persons consider suffering
and stammering Synonymous, but they
are quite distinctive.
"Clutched, cramped, laryngeal condi-
ton in labored vowel repetitions is
suffering, and labored consonantal
repetitions and mumblings is 'stammer-
ing
1.-THE general condition which slut
terers and stammerers have in common
are: First, false breath control, by vocal
cords producing cramped, tight throat
conditions. This is remedied by da-
phragmatic breath control, gradually
leaving the throat free and relaxed and
increasing the breath capacity.
1.-The second cause is speaking in a
monotone. This is entirely overcome
by establishing infection and express
sion, using a higher range of voice in
speech.
1.-THE third cause is an explosive at
tack and repetition of consonents and
vowels. Rapid talking and hypertonic-
ity-or excessive muscle pressure and
activity.
'The treatment for this defect is to
study classification - or grouping - of
consonants and vowels and mechanism
Also the excessive pressure and effort
must be relieved. Demonstrations
must be made by example in speaking
and reading aloud each principle to be
established. "
Mr.. Cadwallader says the above prin-
ciples can be applied to correct the de-
feet and restore to normal condition the
most obdurate cases. And thus the slut
terer or stammerer may have speech
freedom. Bernard Cadwallader, 214-15

Two persons were injured and an au-
tomoblle was damaged as the result of
collision with an outward-bound New
ton Brighton semi-convertible car at st.
Paul street and Commonwealth avenue,
Alston, shortly after o'clock yester-
day afternoon.
The automobile which came from st.
Paul street and was crossing Common
wealth avenue, was owned and operated
by Ainsley r. Hooper, of 243 Lexington
street, East Boston. In the car with
him was his wife, Nj. Emma Hooper, IS
years old. The motorman of the car,
noticing the automobile, reversed the
motor, but the front end of the car
struck the right side of the machine.
The right mudguard, running board,
rear wheel and windshield were broken
by the collision, and Hooper was struck
in the face and head by the flying glass
from the windshield. Boston Journal.

Victim of Auto Accident Dies in
HOSPITAL.

Clinton, Dec. % Injuries received
in an automobile accident here last
night caused the death today in the
Clinton hospital of Donald Sanders, 20,
of Leominster.
Finest E. Edgerly, who escaped from
the wreck unhurt only to set himself
on fire when he lit a cigar, was re-
ported today to have some chances for
recovery. Edgerly's fur coat had be-
come soaked in gasoline from the shat
tered fuel tank, and when he struck a
notch he burst into flames and was
badly burned.
The two other occupants of the ma
chine, Harold E. Camp and Charles H.
Orcutt, who were arrested on the
charge of intoxication, were released
today on $500 bail.

IMPERFECT SPEECH AND ITS
CURE.

parents with a speech defective
child have grave responsibility. They
should not be influenced by those who
tell them he will outgrow it. 1t is too
much of a risk. This parental neglect
in childhood is responsible for so many
suffering and stammering men and
women.
So says Bernard Cadwalader of the
Permanent building, specialist in sdeech
and voice defects.
"Habit is a cable, we weave a strand
each day." quoted Mr.. Cadwallader.
"And custom and habit are as difficult
to fight as disease.
"The law of use firmly fixes the
habit of imperfect speech in the child
In childhood the habit is confined to
the physical, the first stage of the
affiiction. Through continued use and
humiliation it develops into second or
mental stage known as lalapobia or fear
of suffering, which requires a longer
time to eliminate, therefore the earliest
possible training is unquestonably the
best"
Mr.. Cadwallader thinks that some
special corrective treatment of stutter-
ing should be provided in the public
