[ TWO WATSONS E IN CONTROVERSY !m to what agreement had been made between Senator Simmons and his Democratic colleagues Senator Watson of Indiana declared there had been unnecessary delay; that the "whole procedings" had been for the purpose of filibuster and that so far as he was concerned it would not be tolerated in the future. "If the Republicans who are responsible to the country for legislation and who must answer to the country for their acts will stay here to the limits of their physical endurance we will quickly pass this bill/' he added. Earlier in the day both Senator Underwood of Alabama, the Democratic leader, and Senator Simmons had declared that there was no dispo f\:; aition on the Democratic side to delay passage of hte bill. The soldiers' bonus bill also got into the debate when Senator Walsh (Democrat) of Massachusetts asked ? Chairman McCumber of the finance committee if the amended bill was to be renorted soon and taken nn immo. diately by laying aside the tariff bill temporarily. Senator McCumber said this was planned and that he hoped to have the bill reported within a week. Senator Watson of Georgia said the Republicans themselves were responsible for long delay on the tariff, citing the months taken in committee consideration. 1 ' ^ Mon-Aetna Revival Services Our revival is drawing near to a close.

Ht Washington, May 6.?Frequent and ~ somewhat prolonged discussion today in the senate as to whether there was unnecessary delay in the consideration of the tariff bill finally culminated in a charge by Senator Watson (Republican) of Indiana that there was a filibuster against the measure. "There is no ot^ier object or purpose in the measure's being held up except to delay its passage," Senator warson aeciarea. "The object is to delay the passage of the bill as close to the day of election as possible Nobody is beiqf fooled and if I have my^way we will be holding sessions daily from 11 p'clock in the morning until 11 o'clock'at night." Senator Watson (Democrat) of Georgia interrupted to say that Senaof North Carolina, in charge of the Democratic fight on the measure, had asked certain minority senators to present their views on particular items in the bill, but deBkIL clarad it was intended the presentai tion should be without filibuster and OR AND MARSHAL IN COLUMBIA TODAY I | President W. S. Currell of * the University said, "There J had been long and bitter feel- n iny between the two men, p growing out of their conflict- 13 ins duties at the University."

General Wu Pei Fu now is in control n of the situation. H Chang's authority in Peking was a eliminated today with the disarming p of his guard inside the capital and I General Wu was recognised by the v Peking government as having assum- d ed control. t] It is understood that President Hsu I Shih Chang will- remain in office un- tl tli the end ? of his term in October, q 1928. . General ^Tu says he d6es not intend to interfere with him. m Reorganization of the cabinet is expected. Premier Liang Shih Yi, who is regarded as a supporter of General A Chang, will be automatically elim- F inated. ( The premier at present is in Tient- C sin. Acting Premier Chow Tsu Chi probably will resign. He conferred t today with General Wu's plenipoten- F tiaries with regard to the govern- A ment. General Wu has remained outside h Peking thus far and has given no in- I dication of an intention to enter the e city. He purposes to call a consti- 1 tutional convention as soon as the 1 military problems are solved. It is J his intention to unite north and south I China. The convention probably will 1 be held in central China. t The defeat of General Chang is attributed to lack of the support he ex- C pected from the southern provinces, li the neutrality of Shangtung and the C failure of Dr. Sun Yat Sen, head of the southern government in Canton, ii to send an expedition northward to d operate against General Wu. v Rural Police Active On May 5th Thos.

B?r. hou will submit such a clause as a ubstitute for that at present conained in the memorandum. Even if the entire commission on tussian affairs agrees to approve a ew clause, it will be difficult to inuce the Russians to accept it, as they re now complaining bitterly of the tresent clause and the French and lalgians are insisting upon new proIsions which will be much more irastic.

H. Levering, a civil engineer of Los < Angeles, Calii., in testifying before the senate agricultural committee in support of Chairman Norris' hill proposing a government owned qorporation for developing Muscle Skoals territory. Mr. Levering declared the committee should never accept a private offer until one had been drafted' on a sound business basis. Senator Nordeck (Republican) ofI South Dakota asked if Mr. Levering thought Henry Ford, who has (submitted an offer for the projects.' was embarking upon "another peace ^hip" expedition. "That's just what I mean," the witness replied, adding that he donbted ' if Mr. Ford had a process by which the manufacture of fertilisers- Could De reaucea oy one-nail their present market price. At this point Senator Hellin (Democrat) of Alabama took issue with the witness, declaring that big interests would keap "anybody (from developing Muscle Shoals unless he is like Ford and has his own money." "Well," replied Mr. Levering, "if we have to go to one man for everything in this country we ought to make him king." Mr. Levering said that ameh ctf the support given Mr. Ford's offer tame from "sucker money/ 'explaining that speculators already were selling ' "lots at Muscle Shoals, next (to Mr. Ford's factory. When the discussion was directed to the offer made by Frederick Engstrum of Wilmington, N. C., Mr. Levering declared it "would be a scandal for congress to accept that proposition." ? Mr. Levering's comments wety the first heard by the committee (ft) the Norris bill and marked the fiidt departure from consideration oi t^e offers for private development since the committee began its investigation last month. " "U5ViW Four Hundred Thousand 1 ... Children Fed Daily Waraaw, May 5.?A law to insure the continuance of free mass child feeding in Poland after the American Relief Administration withdraws on June next has just passed the Polish Diet and been ratified by the Council of Ministers. In accordanace with a clause in the Polish constitution which declares the state's responsibility for its chil dren, the new legislation permits an appropriation of 2,000,000,000 marks to carry on for the first year the program which the American Relief Administration officials consider hecessary for that period. F?uf hundred thousand children are now receiving a meal a day from the American Relief Administration. These the Polish government will take over until September, 1922, when the number will be decreased to 300,000 who will be cared for until June, 1923. The cost will be borne Jointly by the central government and the communes. The former will supply the food and the latter will pay the overhead charges in the kitchens. From April 1919, when the American Relief Administration first he('an to operate in Poland until January of this year, 662,000,000 meals and $4,500,000 worth of clothing .were distributed freely by the Americans. While Austria, Czechoslovakia and Hungary are at present framing laws for child care, Poland has the distinction of being the first country to make tangible preparations for the continuance of the American work. It is also one of the first states to pass legislation declaring its responsibility for the welfare of its children. The present legislation was passed at the instance of the American Relief Administration which has for some time been trying to stimulate public sentiment and soldify the necessary public support. A childfeeding exhibiiton recently held in Warsaw did much to make smooth the passing of the law.

With his throat cut so deep that his jugular vein was grazed, Troy Carter, an 19year-old white boy, is dangerously wonded at his home here after being held up by armed highwaymen on his way home from a picture show last night. Bill Sweezer, his companion, had his clothes slashed in several places, but did not suffer any injuries. Police officers and the sheriff's forces with a posse of citizens have been searching for the highwaymen since a short time after the deed, but have found no trace of them. Bloodhounds trailed them to the edge of a mill village but lost their trail there. According to Sweezer, he and Carter were taking a short cut through a newly developed street about 9:30 o'clock when two men masked with handkerchiefs over their faces stepped from behind some vines and demanded their money. Carter reached in his pocket to take out his money and, as he did so, one of the highwaymen attacked him, slashing his throat with a pocket knife. The other highwayman slashed Sweezer's clothing As soon as Carter's throat was cut, both assailants fled without taking the money they had demanded. Sweezer said they could not tell whether the men were white or negroes, but he believed they were white. Neither he nor Carter had any money except a small amount of chrnge. Carter's conditions is serious, but physicians say he is not fatally injured.
