That President Taft disgraced the National Conservation Congress by talking pol itics when he was expected to dis cuss conservation was the direct charge made today before the exec utive committee of the congress by Henry Hartner. "The president humiliated tho or ganization" ho heatedly declared. "The reception the delegates gave him was very cool; so cool, in fact that even the great office ho holds was not honored by it. "On the other hand, Roosevelt, a private citizen, was honored beyond measure. Tho president's political remarks were not In good taste. He was to talk conservation, and he did not. President Baker, of the con gress, will verify this. "In view of what has happened the delegates should take matters into their own hands, eliminate all politics and talk conservation. Now that the political end of tho congress appears 'to have been reached, some persons actually are trying to adjourn the session tonight." Hartner's charges resulted in tho inauguration of a movement to elect J. B. White, of Kansas City, president of tho congress. White's friends charge that the efforts to end the congress tonight are part of a plan to discredit Taft and honor President Baker, of the congress. President Baker's announcement of adjournment tonight undoubted ly will result in the presentation of resolutions before tho congress de manding that 'the sessions continue tomorrow. Hartner's declaration that Baker knew that Taft was supposed to con fine his remarks to conservation. sub jects, tho delegates appear to be lieve will precipitate further diffi culty, unless tho resolution to con tinue the congress, whiph Hartner himself will introduce, receives fa vorable consideration. I The resolution Introduced by Hart ner, changing the time for electing officers tonight, was adopted by the committee. Another resolution rec ommending a national health com mission, also was' adopted. Intense opposition to a general en dorsement of this measure by the congress Is expected, It being urged by many delegates that Its adoption would be tantamount to an endorse ment of the "medical trust."
