AT I FAVORED
BIG CHANGES
IN j. s. LAWS

The many years william How.
ard Taft has spent in public life,
and particularly the four he spent
in the White House. have con.
vinced him some new rules should
be written to govern the business
of being President of these
United States.
It is his idea, for instance, that
the President should be limited
to- one seven.year term, and in
eligible fer reelection.
Again, the Nations distin.
guished statesman and jurist
thinks the Presidents Cabinet
officers should have the privileges
Of the floors Of both houses of
Congress, with full right to enter
into the debate. .-.:

Third. Taft has held that the
party obligations Of a President

party workers with Federal Jobs
should be reduced to their low.

Of law. ia
: A perusal Of the public utter.
ances Of the only man in Amer.
ican history to be both Chief
Executive and Chief Justice re-
vealS plainly that he feels political
.log.rolling is a gravely deterring
evil in the administration Of any
President. On the subject of
that high office, he stated some
years ago: Il
IT am strongly inclined to the
view that it would have been a
wiser provision Gin the Constitu.

in the convention, to make the
term of the President seven years
and render him ineligible there.
after. Such a change would give
the Executive greater courage
and independence in the dis.
charge of his duties.
THE absorbing andv diverting
interest in the reelection of the
incumbent taken by those civil.
servants who regard their own
tenure as dependent on his would
disappear and the efficiency of
administration in the last year
Of a term would be maintained"
On the score of the Presidents
contact with Congress through
his chief aides. Taft had this to
say in a lecture:
Debates in Congress
Without any violation of con-
stitutional limitation. Congress
might well provide that heads of
departments, members Of the
Presidents Cabinet. should be
given access to the floor Of each
house to introduce measures, to
advocate their passage, to answer
questions. and to enter into the
debate as if they were members.
This would impose on the
President gerater difficulty in sell
lecting his cabinet, and would
lead him to prefer men of legisla-
tive experience who have shown
their power to take care of them
selves in legislative debate. 1t
would stimulate the head of
each department to more thor
ough investigation into It's actual
operations and to closer super.
vision Of its business.
"On the other hand. it would
give the Executive what he. ought
to have-some initiative in legis-
lation." :
And. on another occasion.
speaking Of the demands upon
the White House for persona! IA
vors. Taft said this:
There are certain political OBJ
legations that. the custom of a
party requires the President to
discharge on the recommendation
OF Senators and Congressmen and
men who have had the conduct
Of a political campaign in which
he was successful. hope that
that form of obligation will be
reduced to IT'S lowest form by a
change Of the law"

DRY SHIFT BILL
FACES FIGHT
IN HOUSE

The Administrations plan to
turn prohibition law enforcement
over to the Justice Department
again faced a scathing fire of op-
position today as the House
moved toward a final vote on the
Williamson bill. It's passage is
scheduled for tomorrow.
Encouraged by support given in
debate, opposition leaders pre-
dicted they would override the
Administration, and make Attor-
ney General Mitchell a real "dry
czar" by stripping the Treasury
Of all control over industrial al.
cohol.
Both Sides Split
The vets and drys alike were
divided on the bill, with some of
the ringing vets" aligned with
the bone drys" in the legislative
squabble.
Two attempts to write import
ant amendments, both backed by
powerful groups, win be made.
One proposal is to give the At
torney General complete power,
and the other is to leave the en-
tire industrial alcohol control In
the Treasury.
A deluge Of kilograms from
wholesale drug concerns through.
out the country protesting against
the Williamson bills plan to give
the Attorney General joint con-
troi over alcohol regulations and
a final veto on permits caused
trouble for many members.
Compromise Plan
Representative O'Connor RO.
Of Oklahoma suggested a com.
promise plan under which the
Attorney General would approve
or veto all industrial alcohol an
plications before they are sent
tc the Treasury.
While Representative Hudsou
(Ro Of Michigan declared that
but 2 per cent of the industrial
alcohol output of the nation i@
diverted, vets claim that it T..

declaring prohibition cannot b..

Failure Certain
This is the fourth reorganlza,
ton in prohibition enforcement. ;
said Representative LaGuardia
(R) Of New York. "I1l vote fo-
the bill but I want the drys to
admit the failure that is sure to
come and agree to change the
