C. 5" ? vwrw Senator Simmons Faces ( The Party Discipline a*\ Washington, Oct. 14.?Since his let' est speech mode against Governor Smith at Negrbern, Friduy night when hi- <-ha 1 god the Democratic party with conducting a "two-faced and hypocritical campaign/' calling upon voters not to bcintluenced by the "smoke sci o<*n of intolerance thrown about the ampaign in the South/' it appeal* from whut,can be learned here to-iay that Senator Simmons of North 1 Carolina' may be ruled out of the' senate Democratic caucus at the beginning of the next session of congr? ?s, deprived by the Democratic j steering committee of his present as- I signnp'Ot as ranking Democrat on the senate committee on. finance, one of the most powerful of any in congress, and shorn of practically all the power he has therefore had ih that body. It is learned that the attitude of Senator Simmons' colleagues will probably be, regardless of >vhat local requirements demand for voting In North Carolina, that he has, by his outspoken apposition to the Democratic nominee, so alienated himself from the good feeling of the Demo crat^in congress that he could iiu longer work with them in harmony and for the best of the party interests. It will be recalled that when Senator Oscar Underwood, of Alabama, retired from the senate a few years ago, there was a bitter fight for his succession as minority leader between Senator Simmons and Senator Robinson, the present Democrats candidate for the vice presidency. Robinson, defeated Simmon's, and though on the surface there have been no visible signs of ill feeling that then existed, the fact that Robinson was then Simmons' opponent and that he iB now being bitterly fought because he is on the Democratic national ticket with Smith, has brought Robinson's friends around to the point, it is understood, where they will rally to his support in December, regardless of whether the Democratic ticket wins or loses and demand that Simmons, who is doing everything within his power to cause defeat for the Democratic ticket bo relieved of his official committee assignments, the rights of the senat; caucus and otherwise ignored during the remainder of his term in the senate. .q It is hinted here that Senator* Simmons, a very proud man and one who deserves great credit for having dune much to redeem North Carolina from Republican rule about 25 years ago, would resign from the senate before he would willingly see himself ignored arid repudiated by his colleagues. Besides this, though once a great political leader and a shrewd financial strategist and an able national legislator, he-is now an old man and in poor health. It would be in\possible it is Biiid? for him to undertake to carry on a fight if the Democrats make the move indicated for physical reasons. Therefore, the inevitable thing he might be called upon to do, some said, would be to resign from the senate because under no conditions, it was pointed out, even should his health permit him to make another fight for election td the senate tWo years hence, be would find tremendous opposition from the North Carolina Democrats who could not be swerved from the principles of Democracy and for voting for the SmithRobinson tii ket next month. So. Sim.mo'ns Nmay resign from the senate, it is indicted, but in the event he does not do so, tt.pia inevitable that he must meet a very unpleasant situation at the hands .of the Democratic colleagues when congress convene* - a Doctor ItemavfK Own Appendix 43L Loa Angeles, } Oct. 12. ?Roh Nleala, young Hollywood surgeon, who three days ngo removed his own appendix, today said he ffelt well enough to get up and walk, and MI would do so now instead of waiting the necessary ten days if I thought, it would be safe." , Neither economy, necessity, nor desire for publicity prompted his self-operation, the doctor said. Rather the operation was an experiment to verify his previous concBision that the "shock" which most patients suffer from operations was <loe largely to anesthesia rather than the operation itself. This theory, he said* hud.J>een corroborated. jiilJ i r Young Woman Electrocuted Greenwood, Oct,' 19.?Mrs. Duward Kennedy, 21, . of - MoCormick, was electrocuted when she'came in contact with a live wire under the main building at the Greenwood fair grounds today. _ She had gone under the building for lunch and accidentally caught hold of the wire, death resulting instantly. The wire carried only 110 volts, but the damp ground on which she was standing is believjed to have made the contact heavier, I causing her death, ''?" Woodpecker Found in Pipe Organ. Fort Mill, Oct. 16.?A woodpecker wan discovered In the 10-foot front pipe of the organ at Unity Presbyterian church Sunday morning. How the jhjrd happened to drop into the pipe is 'not known, but was discovered at the opening in the pipe near the bottom,, which was too small for it to get.out or to be taken out. The pipe is about f.-ur inches in diameter, and, therefore, too small for the bird to spread its wings and lift itself. The pipe was removed and the bird given its liberty by inverting the tube. Worshippers at the Wednesday evening juuyer service in the same church discovered - a pigeon in the building, which found its liberty through opened windows after some effort.
