TAFT Washington, Nov. 20. BackT in the haunts where he once held swsy, William H. Tatt today "took a crack" at his ancient enemies, the demo crats. "I have recently returned from a trip across the continent," he said. "It seems to me that the American business man even the one who is profiting from 'war prosperity' Is not satisfied with the democratic pro gram and democratic achievements. Tbe trend Is back to republicanism." He laughed heartily In denying that he Is a presidential candidate. "That reminds me," he continued, "when I was In California a reporter asked mo If I was a candidate, and t said 'No,' A Los Angeles paper printed the story. Then shortly af terward my brother In Texas denied that I would run. And the Los An goles paper printed tho Texas dis patch headed, 'We Heard You the i. nb A lino, I Not quite as "plump" as he used to be, the former president, however, J has all bis old-time jollity.

Correct Attest: CHARLES RURKIIALTER, T, B, CORNELL, STANTON ROWBLL, Directors. (By United Press Leased Wire.) Chicago, Nov. 80. Stats, and perbapt national, action to prevent a "death sentence" similar to that given Mrs. Anna Bollinger's defective babe seemed possible todsy as ths result of a coroner's jury exoneration of Dr. Ilalsselden,' who decided it better for the child to die than to live, a burden to Itself and relatives. The jury held a surgeon to be ful- ( ly within his rights In refusing to operate If his conscience so directed htm. Tet the doctors on the Jury felt Anna Bollinger's deformed and deficient child eould have been saved by surgery, and that there was noth ing to prove, as suggested by rieis selden, that the baby would hv grown up mentally and morally de ficient. Great care In the future should ha exercised, said the Jury. To this end a physician's judgment slone should not decide whether death Is the pre ferable course'. Any doubt as to the future of a child should be deter- rained by a board, they advised. - Because of this suggestion, action looking toward a sort ot augenlo board seemed possible. ' Such an In stitution would counsel with a physi cian In any similar case. Any doubt as to future mental and moral de ficiency would be op to the entire group.' No further action against Halsselden Is anticipated. While the jury cast doubt upon the doctor's Judgment, officials hart found no ststutes Indicating that lie acted be- yond the bounds of the lsw. DEDICATE SONG TO ' AIID HIS AFFIANCED WIFE New York, Nov. 46. though Pre sldent Wilson requested suppression of a song dedicated to him and his future bride, Mrs. Gslt, under the title ot "Pretty Utile Indian Maid," presses today turned the offending ditty out at top speed. Its title Is taken from tho fact that Mrs. Gait Is a descendant of the Indian maiden, Pocahontas. Its words bear on her wooing by the president. Michael J. Fltspatrlck, the author, sent the president a copy, and Secre- tsry Tumulty replied: "Tbe president asks me to say he would be greatly obliged If you would not publish the' song. He would toe very distressed If it were published." "Now what do you suppose Is the matter with tho president!" com mented Fltspatrlck today. "Didn't I read once that he sang In a glee clubT" I lores Is what the president dis liked: "A palerane chief of a mighty tribe On the trail of an Indian squaw, rn his light canoe that was built for two ; Came drifting to the shore. A lover's dart hit the white man's heart ' From tho girl o fcopper shade. For he was the chief of the paleface tribe And the was an. Indian maid. Chorus "You are red and I am white tW makes our love true blue. 9 For I know that you love, and you know I love you. Let us stroll together 'nesth the, silvery moon When the twilight shadows fade And I'll crown you the Lady of the Paleface Tribe, My pretty little Indian maid." ai-POt'NI) CJOHIILEH moii WILttON'g THANKSGIVING Washington, Nov. 20.
