been opened to us through the society
to work for the Master in this part of
his Kingdom.
We take courage for the cvcr-beck-

field abundant in labors, and white
unto harvest which stretches before
US. because we are conscious that over
US has been tender providence and
divine appointment, which has been
evidenced in the tasks we have been
permitted to undertake, and from the
measure of success that has crowned
our labors and sacrifices.
In the orthodox usages of Meth

and leaders for another conference

Attorney General Says Taft's Advise
VIII be Most Helpful in
Reorganization Plans.

Washington. - President Harding
has announced the appointment OF
former President William Howard
Taft, to be chief justice of the United
States supreme court to succeed the
late Chief Justice Edward ID. White.
His name was sent to the senate
for confirmation. The senate went
into executive session and Taft was
confirmed-all senators present vot-
ing yes, with the exception of Sena-
tors Hiram Johnson, OF California,
William e. Borah of Idaho, r. NJ. La
Toilette, of Wisconsin, and Tom Wat
son, Of Georgia.
The dissenting four senators have
been severely criticized by their col
leagues and their action has been
dubbed spite work" However, these
senators insist they opposed Taft be-
cause of the conservative turn Of
mind of the former president.
Although it was announced at the
same time that Mr.. Taft, who is now
in Canada acting as an arbitrator in
an important valuation case, had not
been apprised by the White House of
the presidents intentions, it is gen.
orally assumed that he will accept the
position.
Judge Taft's appointment does not
come as surprise. At the time OF
Chief Justice Whites death, it was
taken for granted on every hand that
Taft would be called once more into
the service of the government. Other
names were suggested, of course, in
Guiding Secretary of State Hughes,
Justices Van Deventer, Day and Pit
ney and former Senator Sutherland.
But in all unofficial discussions, the
qualifications of Mr.. Taft stood out
and his appointment seemed a fore
gone conclusion.
Mr.. Taft's appointment to the chief
justiceship was dictated not wholly
by reason of his record, and ability
as a jurist, it was explained by the
president, but because of wide and
intimate knowledge of the administra-
