Taft Will Disclose
Presidential Hopes
Soon, Friends Say
Some Observers Feel
Talks Put ForIey Behind
President for 1910
Y the Associated Press

By the Associated Press.
Close friends of Senator Taft, Re-
publican, of Ohio said today he soon
would make a definite statement of
his willingness to stand for the Re-
publican presidential nomination in
1910.
The statement may come, they
disclosed, in a letter to supporters
in Ohio authorizing them to seek
election as Taft-pledged delegates
to the partys convention.
Under the Ohio system an in
dividual cannot run for delegate
unless he lists his first and second
choices for the presidential nomi-
nation and accompanies them with
written authorization from the
designated men.
1t was reported authoritatively
that Senator Taft would include in
his statement his views on national
problems. Senator Vandenberg, Re-
publican, of Michigan did that in
a recent letter which was inter-
preted widely as indicating his re-
ceptiveness to the Republican presi-
dental nomination.
Senator Vandenperg said the next
President should be pre-pledged to
serve only one term. There was no
indication as to whether Senator
Taft would approve that idea.
Ciyop< ~, nnn T>.~~. ILL.,
Senator Taft told reporters last
December, a month after his elec-
tlon to the Senate, that he believed
the Republicans should nominate a
liberal" in 1910, IF by liberal you
mean a man who wants to improve
conditions and who is willing to ac-
cept changes"
Political talk in the Capitols s
Democratic cloakrooms centered to-
day on the weekend conference be-
tween President Roosevelt and Dem
ocratic Chairman Farley. Several
Senators contended the conversation
had placed Mr.. Farley behind the
President for the 1910 campaign.
Senator Minton, Democrat, of
Indiana, supporter of Paul V. Nc
Mutt for the Democratic preslden-
tial nomination. told reporters the
conference shows that Jim is going
along" with the President for the
1910 campaign.
Senator Minton said that, while
1t was his own private belief" that
the President does not want third
term, he thought Jim would sup
port him for one" if the issue arose.
Another administration supporter,
Senator Guffey, Democrat, of Penn
sylvania, asserted: Il don't think
there has ever been a breach be-
tween the President and Jim and
don't think there ever will be one"
From Republican, Senator
Bridges of New Hampshire, came
statement that Mr.. Farley "appar-
emily acceded again to the Roose-

A bipartisan bloc opposed to put

the plans of House leaders today by
forcing tentative approval Of series

A direct House vote on regulating

Weak Railroads

In House Debate

By the Associated Press.
The House was debating
whether to use the phrase
"other railroads" or weak rail-
roads in a section of the trans
portation bill dealing with mer-
gers. The question arose as to
what weak" meant, so Repre-
sentative Patrick, Democrat, of
Alabama took the floor with this
story:
A customer in a restaurant
complained to the waitress that
she had spilled his coffee all

James A. Roosevelt
Can't Convince Folks
He Isn't Son Jimmy
~ the Associated Press.

BOSTON, July 25.-James A.
Roosevelt, IS, a native of Penn
sylvania, is getting wee oit
tired of being confused with son
Jimmy.
In 1882 an ardent Republican
fired him from a good job be-
cause the boss thought he was
the Presidents eldest son. In
Buenos Aires last month he
asked postal officials to trace a
letter and had to make a tour
of the city's postal facilities de-
spite his protests that he was
not the United States Presi-
dents eldest son.
He looks a little like the

KIDDIES TO FISH
 IN SPECIAL POND
All Under l6 Years of Age May Enjoy Sport at
 Fulton Park

Junior Izaak Waltons will have their innings starting tomorrow when the lower pond at Fulton park is thrown open for fishing by boys and girls under the age of 16. An- nouncement of the start of fishing tomorrow was made today by the park department. Fishing will be allowed only on Saturdays.
 Permits for youngsters wishing to fish at the park will be issued by Town Clerk Mary c. Kilmartin, Supt. of Parks James J. Curtin or by any game warden. There is no charge for the permits.
 The pond was stocked last Octo- Der after a conference between Thomas F. Moore, secretary of the board of park commissioners, and the members of the state board of fish and game.
 Placed in the pond were perch, pickerel, bass, bullheads, sunfish and calico bass. A recent examination of the pond showed that the fish survived the winter very well.
 The Waterbury project will be watched closely by the state fish and game board, and the plan ot providing fishing spots for youths may be adopted in other parts of the state.
