WILBUR STRESSES
NEED FOR EXPERTS
Secretary Urges Training for
u. S. Offices at Patriot
Session.
AUTO DROPS 100 FEET OVER CLIFF.

There has been too much govern
mental power given to these who are
unframed for the task to be met, Secre-
tary of the Interior Ray Lyman Wilbur
declared this morning at a meeting of
the Advisory Council of the American
Coalition of Patriotic, Civic and Frater-
nal Societies, being held at the Carlton
Hotel
I'VE find our ideals Of majority rule
in conflict with the need of control by
the elected or selected expert who alone
is capable of guiding our involved and
elaborate governmental mechanism
through its many difficulties" Secre-
tary Wilbur declared.
He said the conflict between funda-
mental principles Of American govern
ment, as they have been applied to gov
ernment in the past and present needs,
can be met only by education in gov
ernmental functions.
Senator Ashurst Speaks.
Secretary Wilbur said there Is no
future that is worth while for our peo-
pie unless it is based on independent,
Self-supporting, self-respecting and con-
tributing citizenship
Other speakers at the meeting in
cluded Senator Ashurst of Arizona,
FlepieSeIlJdIlNe JOIIlSOn OF WaSnlng-
ton and Mrs. William Sherman Walker,
former chairman of the National De-
tense Committee of the Daughters of
the American Revolution.
Representative johnson said forces
antagonistic to American ideals are at
tacking our Government. Natives of
foreign countries, he said, although
sometimes naturalized American cit
liens, have done much to undermine
our ideals. He expressed the wish that
Congress would enact law to deprive
radicals of citizenship.
Resolutions Drafted.
The meeting, which began at II 80
o'clock this morning, was to be followed
TINS afternoon by a luncheon at which
Mrs. Russell William Magma, newly
elected president general of the Daugh-
ters OF the American Revolution, was to
be the honor guest.

expected TO resume its closed meeting.

Low COLLATERAL
SOUGHT FOR MINOR
TRAFFIC W|OLATORS
Police Officials Draw Up Pro-
poSaI to Put End to Court
Congestion.
81 MINIMUM is URGED
FOR OVERTIME PARKING
Suggestion Also Will Tighten Bur-
den of Officers, Proponents
Believe.

Minimum collaterals for overtime
parking, parking abreast and other
minor traffic regulations will be dras-
tically reduced under a new collateral
list drawn up today by officials of the
Police Department. The list will be
submitted to the Commissioners tomor-
row for approval
Collateral for overtime parking and n
number of other minor ofTenSeS will be
cut from $5 to So. The new list also
contains a group of other minor vio-
lations calling for collateral of So
The proposed reduction is intended
primarily to relieve congestion in Traffic
Court, where cases have piled up rapidly
in the last several weeks as a result of
the sudden refusal of the corporation
counsels Office to accept collateral less
than the amount stipulated in the Po-
lice Departments original collateral
list
Many Demand Trials.
Rather than forfeit, drivers accused
Of traffic violations are demanding
trials with the hope of winning the
case or else drawing a fine less than
the amount of the collateral.
A reduction in collateral, police Off
cials believe, will break up that practice
and end the congestion in Traffic Court,
since the average driver would rather
forfeit a small collateral than appear
in court. This procedure, it was pointed
out, also will save the time of police
men.
The original fixed schedule of COL
lateralS calling for a minimum of S.
in number of minor cases was adopted
by the Commissioners several years ago
upon recommendation of the United
States Bureau of Efficiency.
The new schedule drawn up by police
officials Is somewhat similar in make
up, although it will carry a higher
amount Of collateral to be required for
repeated violations of the minor regu-
lationS.
Check to Be Kept.
Hereafter 1t is the plan of police
officials to keep a close check on traf-
flc violators, and a central traffic rec
ord Office will be set up in the Traffic
Bureau for this purpose. The names
OF all violatorS and the offenses
charged against them will be kept on
file.
Before collateral Is accepted officers
will check the official record to ascer-
tain whether the violation constitutes
the first offense The amount of the
collateral will be fixed accordingly.
The idea Of the reduced collateral
list is to let the violator off with a
light penalty for the first offense, but
to "soak" the repeaters who, police
offcials believe, are responsible for the
overtime and double parking evils.
Brig. Gen. Pelham D. Glassford, su-
perintendent Of police, was anxious to
let the first offense violator escape with
warning, but he was told that such
a procedure might be detrimental to
enforcement of the traffic regulations.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 29.-With
tall. athletic Admiral Montgomery
Meigs Taylor rests the authority
to start a fleet of American war
ships-destroyers, submarines and
a cruiser-toward the city OF
Shanghai.
Brother officers of the 62-year-
old commander -in-chief of the
Asiatic fleet say he is quite capable
of quick and accurate decisions.
The admiral bears striking re-
semblance to his great-uncle
President Zachary Taylor. And
from the first day he boarded ship,
so the story goes, he has always
had with him a picture of the
Mexican war general. A life-size
portrait of his distinguished an
cestor hangs today in Taylor's
cabin aboard his flagship, the
cruiser Houston.
A bachelor, the admiral spends
his leisure moments reading
books-he is especially fond of
IllSUOI y-dllQ Jld ing SOAAs
President Grover Cleveland ap-
pointed Taylor to the naval aca-
denny in 1886. While there, he
played on the navy's first football
team, but with all his athletic ac-
tivities, graduated at the head of
his class in 1890.
While still a youngster in the
navy, he was shipped off to join
Admiral Dewey on board the
U.S.S. Olympia, just in time to par
ticipate in the Spanish American
war.
For his services as commander of
the battleship Florida during the
World war, Taylor received a dis
tinguished service medal with q
citation for exceptionally meritor-
ious service in a duty of great re-
sponsibility."
Fellow officers can't tell many
Jokes on Monty" Taylor. He never
gave them the chance. Disliking
publicity of any form, the admiral
always retired below to good
book and comfortable chair when
his duties on deck were over.
Whenever the situation is tense,
the admirals bushX moustache ap-
pears to be almost bristling with
excitement as he gives his orders.
Men who have shipped under
him. say he is always willing and
able to shoulder any responsibility.
Tilya most of the old "Sea dog
type of naval officers, Taylor is
stern, but is well-liked by under
officers and crew.
He will be retired November !,
1898. But today he is quite active
and watches with keen eye every
movement of the ships under his
command
