Mr. Faris said, “and that is elect our

Cambridge, Mass., June 15.—The un-
abridged exercise of the limitations
upon hasty action of a majority of the
electorate now interposed by the
vested prerogatives of the supreme
court of the United States, and by the
machinery for amending the constitu-
tion, was defended by former President
William Howard Taft in an oration be-
fore members of the Phi Beta Kappa
fraternity of Harvard University at
Sanders theater today. The subject of
the oration was “the supreme court of
the United States and popular self-
government.”
_ Mr. Taft’s defense of these limita-
tions had immediate reference to
changes urged by certain political
leaders to qualify existing personal
and property rights, and increase gov-
ernmental control over the individual.
He attacked the recall of judicial de-
cisions and the proposal that the judg-
ment of the supreme court in constru-
ing and enforcing the constitution may
be subject to a reversal by a plurality
vote at any biennial election.
Basing his argument that the consti-
tutional and judiciary obstruction to
impulsive action at the polls were not
inconsistent with popular government,
upon English governmental develop-
ment, Mr. Taft said:
"The enduring character of the Eng-
lish government and of the govern-
ments that have been derived from it,
like our own, is to be traced in this
training of the minority to be good
losers. But the quality of being good
losers will not persist in minorities
unless majorities exercise their power
with fairness.”

Texas City, June 15.—The Fourth v

by Maj. Thomas J. Dickson, chaplain, e
of the sixth field artillery and offi- -
cial army photographer. The brigade )
was commanded by Brig. Gen. Hunter
Liggett. The Twenty-second Infantry j
replaced the Twenty-sixth, which was 1,
being spected by Maj. Gen. Bell. «
The brigade skirmish, charged anc 11

Texas City. The terrain is in a way j
well adapted to the needs of motion 1

spaces of level land afford an excel- 6

The taking of soldier pictures is more 4
difficult than the filming of other .3
scenes of action, and tha so many of 7 1
the pictures are clear and distinct in de- 1
tail is remarkable. The olive drab uni-
form is worn because it effaces the n
wearer from the view of the enemy.
Olive drab is a shade between earth 1
brown and the green of trees and grass, J
and at any considerable distance a
body of troops cannot be distinguished. ,
For this reason it does not lend it- . 1
self readily to effective pictorial work.
The soldier picture, unless taken and I

Democracy in No Danger at Hands of
the Rich.
By Associated Press.
London, June 15.—Walter Hines
Page, the American ambassador, ad-
dressing the Royal Institution last
night on some aspects of American
democracy, combated the view that
democracy is in danger of becoming
plutocracy by surrendering political
power to the organized rich.
“So far from the truth is this,” Mr.
Page said, "that democracy lately has
shown itself less than fair to the rich,
who are too easily subjected to sus-
picion among us.”

Washington, June 15.—The national
museum here has on exhibition today
its collection of American flags show-
ing the development of the stars and
stripes through the different historical
periods down to the present day. The
collection is a feature of the museum’s
historical exhibit. It includes the
original "star spangled banner,” which
waved over Fort McHenry during the
bombardment of September 13-14, 1814,
and the ensign said to have been
flown on the Bonhomme Richard by
Admiral John Paul Jones. Flags car-
ried in the Mexican war of 1846-47, in
the civil war and in the Spanish-Amer-
ican war also form part of the collec-
tion.
There are also many miscellaneous
flags, including the flag owned by
Admiral Charles Wilkes, U. S. N., said
to have been made of the first silk
raised in the United States; the flag
said to have been flown at the north
pole by Rear Admiral Peary in 1909,
and also the flag carried by the Smith-
sonian-African expedition under com-
mand of former President Roosevelt in
1909-10.

New York, June 15.—With the three
America’s cup defense yachts, Resolute,
Vanitie and Defiance, engaged in almost
daily test races and Sir Thomas Lip-
ton’s challenger Shamrock IV prepar-
ing to sail for America, interest in the
coming international races for the fa-
mous yacht trophy is increasing rapidly.
The status and racing ability of he
three America sloops are fairly well
established but the full possibilities
of the Nicholson seventy-five footer
will not be known until she can be seen
in practice off Sandy Hook. Her de-
scription as cabled from England,
points to a yacht which departs from
many of the orthodox canons of sloop
building. Many yachtsmen believe that
designer Nicholson with his radical in-
novations has produced a boat that will
prove extremenly formidable. This be-
lief increases the interest with which
Shamrock IV is awaited on this side of
the Atlantac, and raises the question
again as to whether the cup committee
will permit the challenger to be tower
at any time during the long ocean voy
age which is to be soon undertaken.
The same question is agiating Er
lish yachting circles and there is much
discussion in both clubs and y
prints regarding this important
of the cup contest. The impressior
vails abroad that the New York
club committee is opposed to g
permission to tow and while t
ter is under discussion neither
lenger or ’defending clubs w
their official attitude in th
’Basing their opinions on th
tion hat such permission will’ be 8
ed reluctantly, if at all. the Engl,
yachtsmen and writer holds that tbe
restriction is one that handicaps the
challenger.

Chicago, June 15.—Samuel Daniels,

American Team Now in a Fighting
Mood.
By Associated Press.
Hempstead, L. I., June 15.—Owing to
the downpour of rain all night, indica-
tions early today were that the sec-
ond international polo game set for
Tuesday might have to be postponed
owing to the slippery condition of the
field. However, if the weather clears
by evening, the game may be held.
Optimism that was so apparent Sat-
urday morning in the American camp
and among thousands Of followers of
the game, had been changed to gloom
today because of , Saturday’s English
victory. The remarkable shift in bet-
ting from 2 to 1 in favor of America
to 3 and 4 to 1 in favor of England
tells the tale. The rapid shift in sen-
timent has, however, placed the Amer-
icans in a fighting mood. Both the
American and English ponies today
showed signs of the hard riding of
Saturday’s game.

Paris, June 15.—Before leaving Paris
for London late last night Col. Roose-
velt gave out a 2,000-word report by
Col. Rondon, the Brazilian govern-
ment’s representative who went with
Col. Roosevelt on the latter’s explora-
tion trip in South America. The report
of Col. Rondon, who himself is an ex-
plorer of note, says and claims to prove
that “Mr. Landor (referring to'Henry
Savage Landor, the British explorer)
did not cross a palm of land in Brazil
or Peru that had not been explored,
the greater part of it, many-centuries
ago.”
The report of Col. Rondon was sent
to Col. Roosevelt on his request to
Col. Rondon concerning Mr. Landor’s
expedition from Rio de Janeiro to
Lima, Peru, in 1910-1912.
Col. Rondon’s report, couched in a
sarcastic vein, gives an alleged de-
tailed history of Mr. Landor’s explora-
tion trip. It says Mr. Landor applied
to the Brazilian government for an
astronomer, a botanist, a zoologist and
geologist and an escort of 50 soldiers
with a field gun. The last request was
refused.
Col. Rondon says Mr. Landor then re-
quested a subsidy of $40,000 from the
Brazilian government, declaring other
governments had placed large sums at
his disposal for exploration. Col. Ron-
don says Mr. Landor finally agreed to
accept $10,000.
Col. Rondon, who was asked by the
Brazilian government to help Mr.
Landor, declares he mapped out an
itinerary for Mr. Landor “worthy the
fame of the explorer martyr of Tibet.”
The explorer set out provided with
introductions to the local governors. At
Goyaz, Brazil, he was allowed by the
governor of the state to take four po-
licemen with him from that district to
Diamantino.
From Diamantino, according to. Col.
Rondon, Mr. Landor took the old com-
mercial route to Santarem, Para, Bra-
zil, as far as Sao Manoel., There he
found a guide, but the two men got
lost in the forest and , returned to Sao
Manoel after five days. Then Mr. Lan-
dor went down the Tapajoz river to
Sao Luiz, where he took a steamboat
to Manos, wiring the Geographical so-
ciety from Santa Remon th way that
he had accomplished his, purpose of
crossing the wilderness,/of Brazil to
the Madeira river. This was equivocal,
according to Col. Rondon, as it failed
to explain the route.

Washington, June 15.—Secretary
McAdoo again stands ready to lend a
hand to Western and Southern banks in
case they need money for crop moving
purposes. The plan of lending govern-
ment money to banks in agricultural
districts for use during orop moving
seasons last year was so successful
that it will be adopted this year, if the
necessity arises.
Money loaned by the treasury de-
partment last year was secured mostly
by commercial paper, and all the bor-
rowed money had been returned to the
treasury by April 1, together with in-
terest amounting to $260,000. The to-
tal amount loaned to banks was $37,-
386.000. It went to 193 banks in sixty-
two cities of 28 states. Secretary Mc-
Adoo announced he would lend $50,-
000,000, but that much was not sought.
In fact the secretary stood ready to
lend as much as $200,000,000 had the
banks in the farming sections demanded
that much money.
