President Takes Formal Steps to
Boost Former Executive
rBy United Press
WASHINGTON, June 30. A final
decision to appoint William Howard
Taft as chief justice of the United
States supreme court has been reached,
it was authoritatively learned today.
Taft has unofficially, signified his will
ingness to accept the position. The last
formal step Attorney Geieral Daugh
erty's recommendation has inen made.
Taft will be the ninth chief justice of
the United States supreme court and
the first man to have been honored by
being both president and chief justice,
the two highest offices in the gift of
his xountry. He will start immediately
to familiarize himself with important
cases ordered to be re-argued after the
death of Chief Justice White. The su
preme court meets in October.
Note It has been the custom to
keep the political complexion of the su
preme court evenly balanced between
the two great parties as possible. Be
fore Chief Justice White's death five
members were Republicans, four Dem
ocrats; but Taft's appointment makes
the supreme bench two-thirds Republican.
"Soldiers of Fortune," the play to be
presented at the Grand this evening, is
one of more than passing worth, filled
with good American spirit. The scene
deals with, a South American republic
and an American engineer who has a
railroad to run; and he runs it against
overwhelming odds.
The revolution between rival dicta
tors makes the theme of the story and
the work of an American girl and
those associated with her help lend
plenty of color. ' '
Perioral Mendoza and President Al
varez figure conspicously in the plot of
the storv and the intregue, together
with the unsetting of plans by the
American goes a long way to hold1 in
trrest.
While the rival leaders form their
revolution threatening the safety of the
.Americans the miniature war breaks
Vt and it is only the arrival of an
American warship with the marines
that saves the day. -
To those who enjoy a story of action
from start to finsh and one that is pic
turized with the best of .actors
play must make an appeal. The film
has met the approval of the circuit and
has received the highest praise from
the critics. - ; ' '
"Soldiers of Fortune" will be present
ed this and Friday evenings. -
The added attraction will be a Larry
Seamon Comedy, "Solid Concrete.

AWAITING ACTION
OF UNITED STATES
By United Press
WASHINGTON, June 30.-Great
Britain and Japan are awaiting the
United States' move toward disarma1
ment, it is understood in diplomatic
circles.
The Japanese society of the League
of Nations has adopted a resolution
favoring disarmament by the Entente,
late dispatches state.
Practically every -detail has been
worked out by the various committees
to make the Fourth of July celebration
a success in this city. Meetings of all
kinds have been held and each commit
tee has been hustling the past two
weeks, the result being that there seems
nothing in the way to prevent Carson
giving its people and visitors the time
of their lives.
The parade is to be a feature un
usual in attraction. Instead of the old
copywright affair, a historical pageant
is planned. The work has fallen prin
cipally on a couple of members who
have given western Nevada history a
wide research.
It has Wen found, possible to resur
rect an original pioneer outfit, one that
came across the plains. This is to be
a feature. Other original pioneer
equipment of a day that is foreign to
the present generation will be in line
and "Doc" Winnie and Ed Maher
promise the people something out. ot
the usual aiid it will have to be seen
to be appreciated.
Fire equipment dating from the buck
et brigade to modern equipment is but
a small portion of the line up. The first
and last noise in automobile will be
seen in line. Even whiskers are to be
added to the parade and daughters,
