' Washington Briefs L ———.— WASHINGTON, June 17—Flag day minus the President was drab in com- j parison with previous observances in the national capital. The Hardings were in Baltimore to lend added significance to the dedication of the monument to the memory ts Francis Scott Key. The Marine bard rendered its weekly concert on the east plaza of the Capitol. There j were exercises at the Navy Department. Several thousand negroes marched from the peace no nu.nent to the White House in a silent demonstration for passage of the anti-lynching bill. Some carried placards. Go'eminent departments worked as usual. Schools were not , closed. Any one having any doubt of economy at the White House would do well to take a walk back of the grounds, whence a good view of the south portica and adjacent windows may be had. The south i portico is the nearest thing to a piazza nr porch or veranda of which the Execu- j five mansion can boast, and it has awn- j ings all around. But if they last through this summer they certainly will not last i another. They look almost as If they might fal Iro pieces at any moment. The other windows in the back have awnings, too. and their blue and white stripes are fresh, meanfug those have been renewed this season. But one can imagine Mrs. Harding’s economical eye giving all them the “once over." 3s s’u eused to do in the spring in her Marion house, and deciding, “veil, these porch awnings look pretty badly, but I guess they can stand another season." Representative "Jimmy" Oallivan of Massachusetts was chagrined today to discover a choice pun in his House speech attacking the sale of liquor on American ships when It is denied Americans on land had been reported inaccurately by some of the House press gallery corps, whose sense of humor was submerged in a desire for precise English. Mr. Gallivan said: “We* can’t get drunk on land, but we can get drunk on water.” And It was reported: ‘ We can't get drunk on land, but we can get drunk on sea." The first of Attorney General Daugherty’s "war frauds” prosecution is about through its grand jury stages. It was expected the Phillips case would be completed. Proceedings arising from alleged irregularities in the construction of one of the army cantonments was expected to be next presented to the grand jury. Meantime, Mr. Daugherty is carrying forward as expeditiously as possible the work of Investigation under his new bi-partisan section of the Department of Justice. He is hoping for results more than for an immediate spectacular demonstration to offset the statements of hia congressional critics. New* ,-eaches the "watch tower,” a* the new headquarters of the Women's party, opposite the Capitol, is called, that Mrs. O. 11. P. Beiiront is busily occupied with plans for remoJeling the three old houses which were dedicated on May 21. Mrs. Belmont has engaged Thomas Hastings, the well-known architect of the amphitheater at Arlington, and other magnificent structures, but it is said the society leader has herself had so much experience in planning her own houses that she is doing most of the planning herself. Great curiosity is being manifested as to whether there will be a tearoom in the establishment or not, where weary Senators and Congressmen may be lured, while measure* the women want may be discussed over chlcktn and waffles, Southern style. Humor is constantly creeping cut in the Dover-Blair row. It has now become a standing joke at the Treasury that every time Elmer Dover, Assistant Secretary of the Treasury, leaves Washington some of his appointments are either removed or transferred by David H. Blair. Collector of Internal Revenue, j So, when Mr. Dover announced he was going to New i'ork to attend to affairs in the customs service arising from the sudden death of George W. Aldridge, J collector of the port of New Tork, the i newspapers “covering” the Treasury sighed. "Better keep a close watch on the Internal Revenue Bureau for the next few days," was the warning that : went out to their colleagues, who had not heard the announcement of Mr. Dover's contemplated absence. The latest addition of International periodicals devoted to discussion of political and economic pro! lems of Europe Is called Reconstruction, a German weekly, first copies of which have reached Washington officials. An an- | nouncement states the weekly !§ to be published in five languages—German, English. French, italian and Spanish. It , seeks to present the German case on economic problems. PROWLER AT HER DOOR. Edna Evans, 719 Park avenue, called the police at 1 a. m. today when a ! prowler attempted to force a door at her ! home. The man disappeared before the i police arrived.

HARDING GAINS MASTERY AGAIN IN BONUS FIGHT President Said to Have Assurance That Tariff Bill Will Not Be Displaced. Special to Indiana Daily Times and Philadelphia Public Ledger. WASHINGTON, Juno 17.—President Harding appears to have gained, for the time being, a victory in the dispute over procedure 'on the soldiers' bonus bill. After thoroughly canvassing the situation, his leaders in the Senate expressed confidence that the tariff bill would not be displaced. The most significant development hinged upon the position of Senator McCumber of North Dakota, who faces a primary election within two weeks. According to Republicans, Senator McCumber has abandoned his decision to move on Monday to take up the soldiers’ tonus bill. They said he would support In a party conference, now set for Monday a resolution not to displace the tariff bill. An informal poll of Republicans uas said to have revealed that forty were against displacing the tariff bill, niDe in favor and twelve in doubt. Although that might represent the President's strength in secret conference, there was some doubt as to whether a vqte in the open would bring about the same result. Democrats were prepared to carry out their plans to force the tariff bill aside. They were calculating that a vote against displacing the tariff bill would be interpreted as tantamount to a vote against the soldiers' bonus. Senator Walsh, * Democrat, Massachusetts, who was said to have bad a "gentlemen's agreement” with Senator Mt.-Cuwber to take up the soldiers bonus bill next week, was prepared to make such a motion on account of Senator MeGmnher's decision not to do so. Republican supporters of the bonus facing primary elections, found solace in assurances from officials of the American Legion that a vote against displacing the tariff bill would not be "held against them” in the forthcoming primary. They did not reiieh, however, the idea of voting on the Democratic motion. The prospective conference was expected to*develop some handy compromise for these Senators. MOTION PICTURES
