TAFT URGES CAUTION IN
DEALING WITH NATIONS
Talks to New York Peace So
ciety on Application of
Monroe Doctrine.

NEW YORK, December 1--WE are
international trustees of the prosperity
We have and the power we enjoy and
We are In duty bound to them when il
is both civil and proper to help our neigh
bors,' declared former President Taft
last night, in lecture before the New
York Peace Society on the Monroe doc
trine, which he held should be continued
in full force despite the hostility to il
expressed in some quarters.
I'VE cannot be too careful to avoid
forcing our own ideas of government on
peoples who, though favoring popular
government, have such different ideas
as to what constitute it," continued Mr..
Taft. He alluded to criticism of the APP
plication of the doctrine as leading to
''intermeddling by our government into
the politics of the smaller countries like
Sanfo Domingo and the Central American
republics.
When We come to Mexico, the question
is a most delicate one. Intervention by
force means the expenditure of enormous
treasure, the loss OF lives and the drag
ging out of a most tedious war against
guerrillas In trackless country"
Criticises Roosevelt.
"All that those of us who are not in the
government can do is to support the
| hands of the President and the Secretary
of State and to present to the world a
solid front. The present situation Illus
trates the beneficent influence of the Mon
roe doctrine on the European powers
which look to the United States as a
guide in working out the solution
Mr.. Taft alluded to Theodore Roose-
velt's visit to South American countries
aind said he was glad TO see that Mr.
Roosevelt had sought to impress them
| with the view Of the Monroe doctrine that
the speaker had expressed.
Indeed continued Mr.. Taft che
would have helped them and us, too. far
more if he had confined his lectures to
the Monroe doctrine and had not sought
to destroy the independence of the judi
ciary and demoralize the sense of justice
in two continents"

Highway Facilities Discussed.

The question of constructing high
way which would connect the suburb d.

Grafton, with the result that the District
authorities will be asked to consider this
matter At the present time the suburb
can be reached only by first going to
the suburb of Good Hope or to the
suburb OF Congress Heights. \ direct

tour. II was suggested that such a
highway would be of best service II II

MOST OF PAVING COST
PUT ON PROPERTY OWNER
Amendments to BorIand Meas
ure Relieve District Largely
of Expense.

With radical amendments the Borland
| Dill, providing that property owners shall
pay for the cost Of street paving in front
OF their property, where the street does
not exceed forty feet in width, was re-
ported to the House from the District
committee late yesterday afternoon. The
| Borland bin, discussed at the. meeting OF
the committee yesterday morning, was
| taken under consideration by subcom-
mittee consisting of Representatives
Prouty. German and Crosser, and when
the subcommittee had finished with it the
measure was even more drastic than Rep
| resentative Borland had planned.
| The bill provides that where the width
of the roadway actually to be paved Is
| forty feet or less between the curbs or
between the cutters, where no curbs eX-
list. after deducting the amount required
to be paid by the street railway compa-
MES, the total cost of the work. including
the expense of assessments, shall be as
sessed against the abutting property own
ers. one-half to each side; where the
width of street thus to be paved after
deducting the amount required to be
paved by the street railway companies
shall exceed forty feet, the cost of con-
levied and paid for as follows: The cost
of construction of twenty feet on each
side of said street shall be assessed
against the abutting property owner, and
the cost of paving the remaining portion
of said street, including the cost of inter-
sections, shall be paid for by the govern
ment Of the District of Columbia out of
funds available for that purpose"
Report Explains Purpose of Bill.
In a report to the House on this bill It
is stated that the purpose of the measure
is to require real estate owners in the
District of Columbia TO pay reasonable
proportion Of the cost of special improve
ments adjacent to their own property.
The. report says the rule is followed In
nearly all American cities.
Following the report on this bill, Rep
resentative Johnson introduced another
bill which takes away from the Commits
sioners the right to open streets in sub
urban districts In order that the plans
of the present Commissioners may not be
interfered with, the bin does not become
effective until there is a change in the
personnel of the present board as tar as
the civilian Commissioners are concerned.
Authority Left With Congress.
This bill, if enacted. will place upon
Congress the burden of opening streets.
Each house would have to pass a bill,
and the President would have TO sign Il
before a street could be opened anywhere
in the District of Columbia.
Representative Igoe. a Missouri MEM
Der of the District committee. also pre-
scented bill to the House yesterday aft
ernoon making it compulsory for prop
erty owners to pay all expenses of side
walk construction.

Comment by Mr.. Bartholdt.

Comment by Mr.. BarthoIdt.
Representative Bartholdt of Missouri
suggested that Mr.. Hobson had packed
the galleries with multitude of his ad-
herents and that he, Bartholdt, could
bring two million German Americans to
Washington for intimidation" but he did
not think 1t was a healthy thing to
do anything of that sort. He attacked
Mr.. Hobson's argument. and said thar
"sobNety and temperance are not identical
with prohibition as Mr. Hobson had
said, but that prohibition lis an attempt
to make a man sober by law"
The Creator himself put temptation
in the Garden of Eden, and it has been
here ever since" concluded Mr.. Barthoidt
after saying that the man he respected
was the one who could resist temptation
Abolish temptation! why, you'd have to
abolish women" he said
