Taft's Favorite Prayer

~whst doth the Lord require OF thee. but TO do
Eistly. and to love mercy, and TO walk humbly with
shy Cod" was the favorite Bible verse Of the late
william Howard Taft. He will sleep in Arlington
ahe resting place Of the great dead. He was the most
lovable OF all American presidents. He was closer 70
the heart Of the man in the street. the man who IS
~oiceless; the man who tolls and spins; the man who
Gigs and deives. Behind him was a noble American
lineage. His forebears were New England pioneers.
His father was a pioneer of that west beyond the
Alleghenies, and for 200 years the name Of Taft was
known for substantial achievement and personal in
tegrity. Why shouldn't the nation mourn the de-
parture OF a William Howard Taft?
