(NOTE. The following article was
written by a staff correspondent of the
United Press who has enjoyed excep
tional opportunities of observing the
two Presidents, having been detailed
to cover the White House news for this
association almost continuously for the
past eight years.)
(By Robert H. Hazzard.)
Washington, March 30. Although
the Taft administration is not yet a
month old. its startling contrasts to the
Roosevelt administration are already
sticking out like burrs on a chestnut.
In everything that President Taft
does, at work or play, politics or rou
tine, exercise of the brain or of the
body, he is the absolute antithesis of
the man now on the high seas bound
for Africa. The very trip Mr. Roose
velt is making is typical of the differ
ences between the two men. Not by
the wildest stretch of the imagination
could anyone see President Taft for
saking commerce or civilization for an
invasion of the African jungle. 'More
over, it is doubtful if Mr. Taft ever
killed a living creature knowingly.
The Roosevelt goods were hardly
out of the White House before at
taches of the establishment realized
that the "Old Home isn't like it used
to be." Blue coated police officers at
the front door of the mansion disap
peared and were supplanted by two
tall chocolate colored negro butlers in
expansive white shirt bosoms and gray
vests. The white man at the door of
the secretary to the President likewise
vanished and made way for a colored
man. The stable housing the jump
ers, ponies and coupes of the Roosevelt
regime was suddenly transformed into
a garage.
In the matter of handling visitors at
the White House the very first day
marked the change. The strenuous
way succumbed before the peaceful.
Callers on Roosevelt were ushered out
at the rate of fifty a minute. Taft
disposes of twenty or twenty-five. One
of the Roosevelt methods of conduc
ing agfllty on the part of his visitors
was to invite a half dozen citizens into
his office and then in a loud tone of
voice, discuss the matter of some ap
pointment which had been brought to
his attention. Statesmen who indi
vidually intended a quiet tete-a-tete
with the Executive were only too glad
to conclude the conversation in a jiffy
and disperse, none desiring the inner
secrets of their district megaphoned
about so promiscuously. That's one
reason why some New York statesmen
carried ill-concealed brick-bats for the
late Executive.
Now when President Taft makes an
engagement to meet a Senator or a
Congressman or any other person, he
gives them the time that his business
seems to justify and does not invite a
crowd in to participate in the conver
sation. In dismissing a visitor he
jumps up and says, "I'm, so glad you
called. Come and see me again."
Of course the Taft method has its
drawbacks. It means more -hours of
hard work for the President. It means
that scores of callers at the White
House do not get to see the President
at all. However, those who do get in
entertain a warm regard for the Chief
Executive.
Taft has announced that he will
eliminate the "referee" system of ap
pointments in the south and allow Con
gressmen and Senators a choice "in
the selection of Federal officials, even
though they be of the opposite politi
cal party." Roosevelt's appointments
were based upon the report of a small
coterie and the holders -of public office
were often obnoxious. "Personal ap
pointments," will be reduced to a min
imum. The reverse was the rule during
the Roosevelt administration.
Already it has been demonstrated
that in matters of messages to Con
gress no two men could be more widely
different. Roosevelt wrote them, ap
parently morning, noon and night and
then dreamed additions and supple
mentary matter. From the White
House to Capitol Hill ran a perfect
stream of words upon every subject
under the sun. Matrimony, art, war,
science, simplified spelling, In-God-We-Trust,
the raising of babies, and the
raising of divorcined troubles, all these
were meat for the something-doing-ev-ery-minute
President. He kept the
world busy thinking and working
about him for seven and a half years.
If present indications may be taken
as a promise of the future the mes
sages during the Taft regime will be
the shortest and most seldom. The
only message from President Taft so
far was that sent to the extraordin
ary session of Congress. It made
Just 340 words. While Roosevelt in
the language of the day, "butted into"
every line of human endeavor, Taft is
.not Inclined to worry with problems
'which do not concern him.
Roosevelt gloried in fierce physical
exercise boxing, single stick, wrest
ling and horses. Taft plays an occa
sional game of golf and exercises a
little to make his blood flow freely.
Roosevelt selected certain administra
tion newspapers in which he put out
"feelers" to test the pulse of the coun
try. Taft treats all newspapermen
alike. There are no favorites, Roose
velt preached against "race-suicide"
and praised the parents of numerous
families. Taft believes there is some
thing better than mere numerical pro
pagation of the race and not very long
ago emphasized his views by pointing
out the good .that "old maids" may ac
complish in this world.
But, after all, both are great big
able-bodied, full-blooded, virile Amer
icans. Each meets the problems be
fore him in his own way. Roosevelt
made good with the people. Taft gives
promise of doing likewise.
