TAXES HIS ENDURANGE Taft Asks That Dinners Be as Simple as Posslbla ‘Washington, Sept. 23.~The dospital #ty of the West seems to be ‘taxing the endurance of President Taft, eape- clally as to the formal dinners whish have been arranged in his bhonmor. Some time before the president start- ed on his tour of the West his secre- tary, Mr. Carpenter, wrote to each-of the committees having the sypject in charge asking them to meke the din- |} ners which the president was to at- tend as simple In character and brief as possiblo. Notwithmndixizaghm in junction the cities so far ited by the president seem to have vied with each other in making the dinners as elaborate as possible and in some in- stances have occupied two and three and even four hours. In view of the length of the pres!-] dent’s trip and the larse number of dinners and receptiona to which he has been invited the president feels that in justice to himself the dinners should be as simple and brief as the occasions will permit and has asked his secretary, Mr. Carpenter, to again ask to observe the original request the varfous committees of arrange ments In the citles which the preei dent is still to visit. The president has been very much fmpressed with the unbounded hos- pitality of the West, but he feels that his powers of endurance might be taxed beyond the safety limits should such hospitality continue unchecked teo the end of his journey.
