Washington. Dc-'-. 7. All branch organisation 0f the American Na tional Heel Cross .Society were abol ished today and in their stead bodies to be known as chapters will be or ganized. This action was confirmed at the session of the national organ ization in Washington today. These chapters' will be formed by resolutions of subd. visions existing at present, directed to the headquarters at Washington, and governlTyj boards In each state will have direct super vision of the chapters. The addition of the state governing boards and the substitution of the word chapter for subdivision in the title of the Jocal organizations are the chief points of change In the plan of the reorganiza tion. T)iis, however, It Is believed, will add greatly to the efficiency of the central body as a working force. No Wine nt Tills Itnnquct. Minneapolis, Dec. 7.

In favor of mak ing an extensive naval base at Pearl Harbor, near Honolulu, and not In the Philippines. Tour of Fleet Noteworthy. "The return of (he battleship fleet from Its voyuge around the world. In more efficient condition than when It started, was a noteworthy event In the Interest In our affairs and the na val authorities of the world. Besides the beneficial and far reaching ef fect on our personal and diplomatic relations in the countries which the fket visited, the marked success of the ships In steaming around the world in all weathers on schedule time has Increased respect for our navy and has added to our national pres tige. . "L'arly In the coming session, a com prehensive plan for the reorganiza tion of the officers of all corps of the navy will be presented to congress and I hope It will meet with action suited to Its urgency. More. Fcononiy. "Owing to the necessity for economy in expenditures, I have directed the curtailment of recommendations for naval appropriations so that they are J3S, 000, 000 less than the correspond ing estimates of last year and the re quest for new naval construction Is limited to two first class battleships and one repair vessel. Legal Procedure IteforniN. "The deplorable delays In the ad ministration of civil and criminal law have received the attention of, com mittees of jhc American Par associ ation and many state bar associations, as well as the considered thought of Judges ami Jurists. In my Judgment, a change in judicial procedure with a view to reducing its expense to private litigants in civil cases and facilitating the dispatch of business and final di rection in both civil and criminal cas es constitutes the greatest need In our American Institutions. I do not doubt for one moment that much of the law. less violence and cruelty exhibited In lynchings ure directly due to the un ci rtalnties and injustice growing out of the dclavs in trials, iudements and J the execution thereof by our courts. The procceduie in the federal courts 'should furnish an example for Uie j state courts. I therefore, recommend I legislation providing for the appoint ment by the president of a commis sion with authority to examine hiw I laws and equity procedure of the fed jiral courts of first instance, the liiw j of appeals from these courts to the j courts of appeals and to the supremo 'coint and the costs imposed in such proedure on the private litigant and upon the public treasury and I make recommendation with a view to ! simplifying and expediting the pro cedure as far as possible and mak ing it as inexpensive as may be the litigant of little means." Injunctions Without Notice. i Recommending that legislation be I adopted .to carry out the platform I pledges with regard to Injunctions the pieident says: j "The ends of justice will best be ! I met and the chief cause of complain" j against Ill-considered injunctions ! without notice will be avoided by the j j enactment of a statute forbidding ! hereafter the issuing of any mjune , t ion for restraining order, whether I temporary or permanent, by any f cr,il court, without previous not'ee j land a reasonable opportunity to be! i heard on beliaif of the par'ies to be j enjoined: unless it shall appear to the I satisfaction of the court that the de I Icy to give such notice and hearing would r suit in Irreparable injury to I the complainant and unless also the ! court shall from the evidence make a written finding which shall be spread upon the court minutes, that immedi ate and irreparable Injury Is likely to ensue to the complainant, and shall define the injury, state why it is irreparable and shall also enforce upon the order issued the date and the hour of the issuance of the or der. Moreover, every such injunc tion or restraining order issued with previous notice and opportunity by the defendant to beheard should by force , of the statute, expire and be of no effect nfter seven days from the Issuance thereof or within any time less than that period which the court may fix, unless within such seven days or such less period the injunc tion or order is extended or renew ed after previous notice and opportu nity to be heard. "My judgment is that the passage of such an act which really embodies the best practice in equity and is very like the rule now in force In some courts will prevent the issuing of ill advised orders of injunction without notice and will render such orders when issued much less objectionable by the short time in which they may remain effective. "The Jurisdiction of the ' general government over the Interstate com merce has led to the so-called Sher man anti-trust law and the "inter- state commerce law' and Its amend ments The developments In the op eration of those laws, as shown by indictments, trials, Judicial decisions and other sources of information, cull for a discussion and Rome signs as to amendments. These I prefer to embody In a special message instead of including them In the present com munication and 1 shall avail myself of the first opportunity to br.ng these subjects to the attention of con gress." Podltlcal Contributions. I'nder "polilleai contributions," the president says: "I urgently recommend to con gress that a law be passed requiring that candidates In elections of mem bers of the Tiouse of representatives and the committee In charge of their candidacy and campaign, file In proper offices of the United States government a statement of the con tributions and the expenditures in curred In the effort for such elec- Shop Early, Before The Rush!

WOHLENBERG DEP'T STORE BETTER GOODS FOR, LESS MONEY tions and that similar legislation be enacted In respect to all other elec tions which are constitutionally within the control of congress." The president in calling attention to the big postal deficit, recommends the idea of making magazines and periodicals pay a higher rate of post age than one cent a pound, the aver age tost of the transportation of this matter being more than nine cents a pound. He adds: Postal Snvingc Hanks. "The second subject worthy of mention in the pbstoffice department is the real necessity and entire prac ticability of establishing postal sav ings banks. It has been proposed to delay the consideration of legislation establishing a postal savings bank until after the report of the mone tary commission. This report is like ly to be delayed and properly so. be cause of the necessity for careful de liberation and close investigation. I do not see why the one should be tied up with the other. It Is under stood that the monetary commission has looked into the systems of bank ing which now prevail abroad and have found that by a control there ex ercised in respect to reserves and the rates of exchange by some central authority panics are avoided. It is not apparent that a system of postal banks would in any way interfere with a change to such a system here. Certainly, in most of the countries of Kurope where control is thus exer cised by a central authority, postal savings banks exist and are not thought to be inconsistent with a proper financial and banking system. Admission of States. "The successful party in the last election in Its national platform de clared in favor of the admission as separate states of New Mexico and Arizona and I recommend that legis lation appropriate to this end be adopted. "With respect t the territory of Alaska. I recommend legislation appropriate to this end be adopted. Legislative Council for Alaska.

PATTERNS CAN ALWAYS BE MATCHED DEPARTMENT ment by the president of a governor and also of an executive council, the members of which shall during their term of office, reside in the territory and which shall have legislative pow ers sufficient to enable it to give to the territory local laws adapted to its present growth. I strongly deprecate legislation looking to the election of a territorial legislature in that vast district. The lack of permanence of residence of a large part of the pres ent population and the small num ber of the people who either perman ently or temporarily reside in the district, as compared with its vast ex panse and the variety of the inter ests that have to be subserved, make it altogether unfitting in my judg ment, to provide for a popular elec tion of a legislative body. The pres ent system is not adequate and does not furnish the character of local control that ought to be there. The only compromise it seems to me which may give needed local legisla tion and secure a conservative '-government is the one I propose. White Slave Trade. "I regret to have to say that the investigations made in the bureau of immigration and other sources of in formation lead to the view that there is urgent necessity for additional leg islation and greater executive activity to suppress the recruiting of the ranks of prostitutes from the streams of immigration into this country an evil which for want of a better name, has been called 'the white slave trade ' I believe it to be constitutional to for bid, under penalty, the transportation of persons for purposes of prostitution across national and state lines; and by appropriating a fund of $60,000 to be used by the secretary of com merce and labor, ftir the employment of special inspectors, it will be pos sible to bring those responsible for this trade to indictment and convic tion under a federal law." The president recommends the holding of an exposition in 1913, the fiftieth anniversary of the issuance of the emancipation proclamation, to show the progress the negroes have made. "I have thus, in a message, com pressed as much as the subjects will permit, referred to many of the ex ecutive needs of the country with the exceptions already noted. Speaking generally the country Is In a high state of prosperity. There is every reason to believe that we are on the eve of a substantial business expan sion, and we fcave just garnered a harvest unexampled in the market value of our agricultural products. The high prices which such pro ducts bring mean great prosperity for the other hand, they mean a very considerably increased burden upon those classes In the community whose yearly compensation does not expand with the improvement n business and tlie general prosperity. Various rea sons are given for the high prices. The proportionate Increase in the output of gold, which today is the chief medium of exchange and is in some respects a measure of value, furnishes a substantial explanation of at least part of the increase in prices. The increase in population and the more expensive mode of living of the people, which have not been accom plished by a proportionate increase in acreage production, may furnish a further reason. It is well' to note that the increase in the cost of living is not confined to(-this country, but prevails the world over, and that those who Would charge increases in prices to the ex. sting protective tar iff, must meet the fact that the rise in prices has taken place almost wholly in those products of the fac tory and farm in respect to which there has been either no increase in the tariff or in many Instances a very considerable reduction."
