The farm bloc and the eastern republicans are split. The Democratic side i,.units all but five members in favoi of retaining existing law in preference to t-he 25 per cent increase proposed by the pefiding tariff bill. This means that the’opposition to the increase has a basis of about 40 votes upon vfhich to work i fol a majority of 4X. I As senator Pat Harrison. Dem.. Miss., took the floor to plead for | his pending amendments striking of the increase. The farm bloc was called into a conference again by Senator Borah of Idaho who hopes 'o work out a bounty proposal. Proporals under consideration include bounty plans offered by Ser.a>tois LaFoilette, Repn., Wfs., and Howell, Repn., Neb., both of which would offer 14 100 of a cent a pound bounty to be paid out of the trea- ' sury from the funds collected by the Tariff Cuban sugar. LaFollette's plan would pay the sum direct io the farmer while Howell contemplates giving the operator half oi it. Both would leave the duty w-herr It is now, at 1.76 cents a pound so: Cuba. T're Senate is unfavorable to limiting, even for the farmer, and neither is likely to be included in the bill. Therefore the main conte;«t is being staged over the Harriron amendment. The five democrats expected to bolt are Runsdell and Broussard, Louisiana, Kendrick. Wyo., Fletcher, Fla., and King. Utah.. All are from sugar producing states. — -..-o.—— Comparative Riches There is a Story of a mun whom others called poor and who lind lust enough fortune to support him self in going about the country in the simplest way and enjoying the life and beauty of it. He was once in the company of a great millionaire, who was engaged in business, working at it daily and getting richer every year, and the poor man said to the millionaire: “1 nni a richer man I han you are.” “How do you make that out?” said the millionaire. “Why.” he replied, “I have got as much mor.ey as 1 want and you have not.”

NEW OFFICER MAKES DEBUT Automatic Traffic Regulator Introduced in New York City New York. Jan. 11.—(U.R)—The | most recent robot to be demonstrated here is an automatic traffic control which can do everything a human patrolman does except swear at motorists. This device presages that the day is not far off when the streets of New York will be utopian highways where green lights are always shining and no ogre in a blue | uniform ever halts you to inquire po™ely: “where do you think 1 you're going—to a fire?" The remarkable feature of Patrolman Robot, is that it not only has brains but uses them. The robot is called the electrimatic traffic dispatching system, but it is far simpler th;.a Ms natne. There are three parts to if: the ordinary system of green and red 1 ghts, sensistive' "lingers" hidden; under the pavements at street iu-i tersections and an electric brain! that works far better than you i would suspect. Patrolman Robot's "fingers" feel I the flow of traffic along the streets; ami convey the sensation to hi; braiik Thus he is able to speedl up traffic on busy streets by allow-1 ing tlie direction in which the flow; is heaviest to have the right of way. But the lone motorist who wait.;! at a cross street seeking a hob-; in the unending stream of vehicles; receives fair treatment from the robot, for the “fingers" are recording that lie is waiting and event,, ally the automatic policeman turnsi on the green light for him. The manufacturers hastened to point out to city officials that robot never demands an eight-hour day! with time and a half for overt me; that the matter of police pensions could be forgotten and that the robot treated members of the great tax paying public with uniform com tesy. There are crises in traffic, however, that would puzzle the robot hut which would be crystal clerr to a human patrolman. For instance. there was the motorist who ~vas driving up Seventh avenue New Year’s eve aiier making several calls. For him the green lights and the red blended into a beautiful rainbow hue. and he was just sufficiently alert to halt his car where repairs were being mad' in the street. A patrolman noticed him there, and returning two hours later found the man's car still standing there. Shaking the drowy motorist, the policeman inquired: "why don't you drive on?" "1", said thp law-abiding citizen, pointing to a red lantern on a pile of brick in the street, “am waiting for that light to change." 0 —— PARROT FEVER’ CLAIMS LIVES; IS SPREADING (CONTINUED FROM. 1 AGE ONE) break out in all Its virulnmy. Therefore those who attended the Kalmey party are not yet immune to the infection. Officials also expressed fear the malady would spread in New York wheie the originally diseased parrot was purchased by the Baltimore Local Pct Shop. Os the eight persons here and -in ✓

Baltimore reported infected with parrot fever. Mr. and Mrs. Kalmey are in the most seriouv condition. Dr. N. W. Whitehill, veterinarian, also is critically ill. Toledo, O„ Jan. 11—dJ.R)— Mrs. Percy Williams, who died here Wednesday, was a victim of parrot fever, physicians said today. Her husband is suffering from the same disease, they say. ; Mr. and Mrs. Williams returned alsnit three weeks ago after a ; vacation in Cuba, bringing two parrots with them. One of the birds died shortly after their arrival anil Mrs. Williams became ill three days later. Warren, 0., Jan. 11—(U.R) Mr. and Mrs. W. W. Mclntyre and their daughter, Clody, are under quarantine, suffering from what physicians believe, is parrot’s disj ease. They bought a parrot that came I from South America on December 23 and it died five days later. Mrs. Mclntyre was taken ill the next day, her daughter on December 30 and her husband on January 6. Baltimore, Md., Jan. 11 —Bacter-iological-tests were made today to determine definitely whether Mrs. Louise Schaeffer, who died at , University hospital, was a victim ■ of “parrot fever." Mrs. Schaeffer had handled a i parrot a few days before becoming | ill.
