EXfLIIHS AS TO
KHAKIUHMS
Contract to, English Firmsi
. Awarded Without Knowledge
of Secretary Taft.
OYSTER DAY, July S.?Secrotary
Loeb, after a conference wlth thc
"Presldent, gavo out to-day the follow
\ ing statement wlth teference to recent?
ly printed artlcles, ln whlch it was
' alleged "that Wllllam Xi. Tnft, whlle
. ?.pcrctary of War, had nWhrded large
contracts for army khakl Id English
: Xinns:
"Tlie contracts for the purchase of
: uni.orms of s61dlers ln the army are
' made by the Quartormastor-Goneral,
with tlie approval and under the supor
vislon of thc Assistant Secretary of
War. They aro not brought to the
attention of the Secretary of War ox
? cept on appeal from actlon of the as
' sfstnnt secretary.
The nina'or-general in commnnd of
.the army ln the Phlllpplnes, ln a lettor
rto tho department last winter, reconi
Jneiided that the khakl unlforms for
?thc nnny.be bought ln Manlla bocauno
: tlie English khakl. whlch could then he
lliad, was uiore loosely woven, better
? Kiiited to the tropics and was chcapor
nnd the maklng wns better and eheap?
er. Acting on this recommondatlon,
. nnd in Secretary Taft's nbsenco, niul
SWlthout consulting- hlm, the Asslstant
? S_ecr_tary, whlle acting ns hoad of de
jpartment. made an oi'der that contracts
Tior the purchase and maklng of khaki
unlforms uf the armies ln thc Phlllp
,-_?uies bemnde In Maniln.
"Secretary Taft hnd no knowledge of
'this order, and it wns not brought to
| hls attention until the day before he
left oillce, June 30th, whon ho recelved
complaints of lt from American manu?
facturers of khakl. In vlow of the
imminent change ot secrotarles. he
? coneluded that it was an Important
matter of policy which should bo sub
mitted to the Presldent for final ac
? tlon. Aceordlngly, one of hls last oftl
? cl.'il octs was to write, stating thc
fncts and polnt out that the order
made was contrary to the course pre?
scrlbed by Congress In respect to the
purchnso of supplies for the construc?
tlon of the Panama Canal and to rec
onimend to the Presldent that tho order
? made by the asslstant secretary, as
nctlng secretary, be rescinded as to fu
ture purchases.
?? Tt wns too late to take actlon as
:.to the purchase already made. He sug
j-gestod that the only respect In whlch
;;<he order cduld be JUstlfled was ln
..tlie applicatlon to the unlforms of the
"-Philippinc scouts, a small and purely
^locai organlzatlon. whose bodlly sizes
.-nnd shapes were so dlfferent from
?"Amerlcan soldlers that lt was diffl
cult to Ht them save by local manu
. facture. Tho Presldent, who, of course.
knew nothing of tho matter until it
was thus brought to hia attention.
followed Secretary Taft's recommen
dations, and dlrected the order to be
rescinded as to all future purchases."
