TELLS BRITISH PEOPLE CHARGE
AGAINST WILSON HONOR
ABLE ONE.

SHEFFIELD, ENG. Oct. 29.--Am-
bassador Page, speaking at the Cut
ler's banquet here tonight, said he
readily accepted the designation OF
President Wilson, as an idealist, and
of the United States as an idealist
republic.
Nothing but idealism, said Mr.,
Page, led Americans to conquer dis
ease on the Isthmus of Panama. the
most unhealthy part of the world,
making 1t more healthy than many
cities In the British empire. and then
put men there to build canal for
the commerce of the world. What
does the cost matter, he asked. II
was an ideal. and when an ideal
seizes the mind of the American peo-
pie a hundred million pounds is
nothing.

PREPARING SCHEME
GIVING MORE SCOPE
To BOARDS POWER
City Attorney Busy on Paper
EN- b 0 dying Suggestions
Made Before Committee by
Commissioners Whittet.
Members of Health, Fire and
Police Boards Object---Some
Councilmen Think All De-
partments Should be Under
Board Eventually.

Notwithstanding opposition from
members of the health, fire and police
boards, as to the possibility of the
administrative board eventually hav-
ing jurisdiction over those depart
ments. the city attorney Is now busy
formulating paper which will be
presented to the Special committee on
charter changes for its discussion and
approval
When the administrative board was
first suggested certain members of
council expressed themselves as will
ing to have all the city departments
under the control OF the board. Ger
tain other members disagreed.
Change OF Sentiment.
Since that time many members of
council who have studied The situa-
ton, have determined, at the proper
time, to ask for an amendment TO the
charter by which the city coancil may
determine to give the administrative
board the power to control the de-
partments mentioned at some future
date.
The administrative board, through
it's chairman and it's subchalrman
Tuesday night. appeared before the
council committee, and declared that
the board might be of more service to
the city by having control of all the
departments. Not all at one time. II
was stated by Chairman Whittet, but
gradually, the health department COM
ing. first, and the others as soon
thereafter as consistent with the pub
lie good.
1t is quite~iikely that a majority Of
4 he members at council aEree TO
give to the administrative board the
right eventually TO administer the af-
fairs of all the city departments.
There has been much confusion In
matters pertaining 10 the work of the
administrative ,oard and some of the
departments, tisa sheath department
and the administrative board not hav-
ing got along we'll together.
So far as the fire and police depart
ments are concerned. there has been
no hitch Some of the members Of
council feel that eventually it would
be good to abolish the police and fire
boards-honorary positions-and let
the administrative board-paid posi-
tions--take charge of the two depart
ments. together with the health de-
partment. Mr. Whittet does not ad-
vocate the abolition of these boards,
however.
1t Is said by councilmen who have
studied the situation. that the city
might gain much by the abolition Of
the honorary board system. a paid
board being able to do more for the
interests of the city than can board
OF, volunteers.
City Attorney Pollard said that he
felt it would probably be better to
nave ali the departments under the
management of the administrative
board City Engineer Boiling said the
same.
Couucilmen Mills and Radcliffe were
also of the same opinion, and it Is

Several Changes Made Yester-

Removal of Secretary of

WASHINGTON. Oct 29.--President
Wilson's first visitor today was Chair
man Owen, of the senate banking and

spent some time, with the president

Wilson Strength Growing.
II told the president that he is far
stronger in California and the West
ern States than he was the day he
was elected president" said Mr.. John
son. The people believe in him and
lean on him. He is decidedly stron-
ger than his party, people of all par
ties and political thought wishing him
well and expressing a purpose to
stand by him. Mr.. Johnson said he
did not acquire any information while
away relating to District affairs as he
sees them in congress. He did ex-
press satisfaction. however that the
courts have upheld the legality of
Commissioner Newman nomination
and holding of office.
Deferring action on the proposition

for the regional system of the admin

banking and currency committee
voted to eliminate from the federal
reserve board of the proposed sys-

the controller of the currency. 1t is
understood that this motion was car

To Eliminate Secretary.
A resolution is pending to eliminate
the secretary of the treasury from
the board, which viii control the new
banking system and the likelihood is
that action of this character will be
taken by the committee tomorrow.

changes are in accord with arguments
advanced by the bankers. The
change also Is designed TO make 1t
more difficult for any president in a
single administration to obtain con-
troll of this federal reserve board.

These were the principal develops
