CRITICISES REFOIS
Former President Says Primary
Law Has Not Made Better
Candidates
Klooinington. Ind.. Jan. 21.—Declar
ing that the country was halting in
business and progress and learning
tbe unwise steps that had been taken
and needed to be retraced, William 11.
Taft, former President, said here to
day that the people should go back to
(lie line of justice, equity and mod
eration. Professor Taft' was the guest
of Indiana University and delivered
the principal address at the founders'
day exercises which celebrated the
ninety-fifth anniversary of the uni
versity.
"We need not so back to the con- |
ditions that led to the great reforms j
and we shall not do so," said Mr.
Taft. "Corporations have been driven
out of politics and while, of course, {
corruption is not ever absent, t lie dart- J
ser of plutocracy has disappeared arid
the purification of politics has con
stituted a real reform for which all
good citizens must be grateful.''
The former President defended the
railroads by saying that the close and
absolute supervision over the manage
ment and the restriction upon the
rates, together with the increase or
maintenance of "wages through the
power of unions, have ground the rail- I
roads between the upper and lower j
millstones and prevented a fair return 1
upon their capital. The solvency of,
some of them is threatened, and all
this to the detriment of the business
of tlic country and especially to the
bf
ers, dependent upon normal business
and normal demand for labor."
Bate increases for the railroads,
when the conditions require it, was
urged by Mr. Taft.
Professor Taft criticised many of
the new reforms in governmental af
fairs and declared that the selection of
candidates at a general primary has
not tended to the elimination of cor
ruption or political machine rule and
the selection of better representatives
of a party.
