The Inventory is completed now as far as present knowledge can go. The members of the commission declare and the country as a whole Is con vinced that the state of affairs is one that requires immediate and effective action. The problem that the joint confer ence must help to solve is what form this action must take and in what di rection it must he pushed to be most effective. This is a task which de mands the shrewdest Judgment which the national conservation commission can call to its aid. The commission rtoclares that It realizes that It has reached the critical point In Its work. All the. Information It has gathered in Its months of study will result in noth ing of permanent value unless It can be made the basis of a practical pro cram of constructive activity. STEAMEH SINKS; 70 LOST.

President Elect William II. Taft, who came to KeW York to address the North Carolina society of this city, was given a tu multuous reception by the members of the organization and by prominent men from all parts of the south at the annual dinner of the North Carolinians at the Hotel Aster. Mr. Taft In ho course of nn address which was coiiilned entirely to the south and Its problems urged that the voters of that section should break away from the outlived sentiment and traditions of their past political affllla lions and cast their ballots In accord ance rather with their economic and real lmlltical beliefs. Mr. Taft - declared that nothing would give him greater pride during his coming term In the chief executive office than to o direct the policy of the national government with respect to the southern states as to convince the intelligent citizens of the south of the desire of his administration to aid them in working out satisfactorily the serious problems before them and of bringing them and their northern fol low citizens closer and closer In sym pathy and point of view. "During the last decade."' saM Mr. Tuft. "Iu common with all lovers of our country. I have watched with de light and thauksgiving the bond of union between the two "sections grow tinner. I pray that It may be given to me to strengthen this movement, to obliterate all sectional lines and leave nothing of dlffere'nce 'between the north and south save'R friendly emula tion for,, the benefit 'of our common country.'' At the ronvlmlon of practically ev ery one of his po'lnted sentences Mr. Tuft was interrupted by cheering. Ho frankly expressed himself regarding the o called ""negro question" and de clared that neither ho nor the Repub lican liarty had any idea of forcing npon The people of the south the.domi nance of an Ignorant class. ?tflj aieese rtat"that there Is or'otight to be a common ground -npon 'which we can all stanfl In respect to Ihe race qnesfion in the sontYi and 'Its political bearing that tal;es tiway any justification for main ta'tnlug the continued solidity of.tba onth to -prevent the called negro domination. 'The fear that In some, way or other a -social equality between ttoe races slinTl Ik; -unforced by law or brought a"hout by political measures really has ire foundation except in the imagina tion of Those who fear such result." "Mr. Taft declared that the north yvarns Tor a closer association with the south and quoted -statistics to show that the industries . the south 'fend grown and prospered more Qnring Yhcpasfc-tfecade than any other section T the eontry. He eW it was entire ilF practical for the sonh to adopt laws tfhich would square with the fif teenth amendment to the constitution and yet prevent the dominance of an ignorant class, olth-r white w black.
