COUNOIL KILLS MOVE TO OUST MAYOR DUVALL Two Separate Votes Taken to Make 'Doubly Sure’ Action Is Dead. The city council made “doubly sure” to kill the resolution to impeach Mayor Duvall Monday night. Opening of the stormy session, which lasted until 11 p. m., was delayed by a two-hour secret caucus in the council conference room. Debate on the majority and minority reports of the impeachment committee headed by Council President Claude E. Negley, featured the closed-door conference which ended at 9:30. 1 The majority report signed by Negley, O. Ray Albertson, Austin H. Todd and M. W. Ferguson which was to not adopt the resolution since similar charges are pending against Duvall in Criminal Court was read by the clerk. Presents Minority Report A minority report presented by Councilman Robert E. Springsteen, who charged the committee had been "manipulated,” set Oct. 12 for a hearing and urged continuation of investigation of the impeachment charges. Ignoring both reports, Councilman Edward B. Raub called for a vote on impeachment resolution No. 23 shortly after the session got under way. There was an air of tenseness because no one knew sure how some councilmen would vote. The resolution introduced by a 6 to 3 vote. Springsteen, Raub and Bartholomew voted for the trial of Mayor Duvall on the impeachment charges. Members Shift Stand Councilmen Boynton J. Moore and Walter R. Dorsett who it was said volunteered to support Springsteen’s report shifted their stand after the caucus and voted against the minority report. Moore was said to have favored delaying action at the confab. Raub explained “I had nothing to do with the preparation or introduction of this resolution, but I should think the mayor and his friends would be the first to insist on a trial. If the mayor is innocent there is no reason why he should resist a hearing.” , Bartholomew interrupted with “I rise to a point of order.” “What is your point of order?” queried Raub. Negley cracked his gavel and ordered continuation of the roll call. “Naw,” said Negley, disdainfully, Ifhen his name was called by Miss Margaret Inman, assistant clerk. Purged From Record After taking up several minor ordinances Council O. Ray Albertson whose father recently was named Casino Gardens watchman, called for adoption of the impeachment committee majority report to kill the measure. “Mr. President, that is out of order. We have already defeated the resolution,” insisted Raub. 'T move that resolution No. 23 be stricken from the files,” suggested Austin H. Todd. "Well, gentlemen, 'we can be doubly sure that the record is purged,’” shouted Negley, calling for another roll call., Springsteen said he was surprised that several councilmen who came to him and insisted on supporting his minority reported “backed up” before roll call.

Call Scientist Who, Decides Darwin Was Right ‘Cheap Philosopher.’ By United Press LEEDS, England, Sept. 6.—After a lot of high-hatted laughter over America’s ape-or-angel controversy. England is having a fundamentalist argument of her own. Sir Arthur Keith, eminent anthropologist, precipitated the dispute last week when, before the British Association for the Advancement of Science here, he declared unqualifiedly that Darwin’s theory of the evolution of man front apes was correct. Called ‘-‘Cheap Philosopher” Clergymen all over the country made his speech the subject of serjyions attacking the materialist explanation of man’s origin. Keith himself was present at one of the sermons, and heard the very Rev. Bede Jarrett of the Catholic Cathedral here, call him “a cheap philosopher” in defending the Biblical version. The Rev. Dr. Edward A. Burroughs of Leeds led the attack by Church of England clergy. He proposed a ten-year holiday in physical and chemical research. “No happiness would be lost by such a holiday,” he said, “and much might be gained.” Keith was unrepentant today. “I never have claimed* to be a philosopher,” he said, passing on Dr. Jarrett’s attack on him. Animal and Divine “But I know a fact when I see one —which is more than the church does at present. Sir Oliver Lodge, a leading scientist, found himself involved in a fundamental argument at the Salem Congregational church. By using diplomacy he emerged unscathed. “Both science and the church are right,” he said. “We do not only have an animal ancestry, but w have a divine ancestry as well.” Flapper Conquers in Turkey By United Press DETROIT, Mich., Sept. 6.—Turkish girls, except for their speech, are the twin sisters of American flappers, according to Mrs. Safie Hussein, Turkish war nurse, visiting here. They shingle, wear short skirts and are independent, she said.

COOLIDGE WILL FACE CONFLICT WITHGONGRESS Tax Cut, Foreign .Policies, Farm Aid and Navy Are Big Problems. By PAUL R. MALLON United Press Staff Correspondent RAPID CITY, S. D., Sept. 5. President Coolidge is preparing for a battle with Congress this winter which he knows is sure to come over tax reduction, farm relief, foreign policy, and naval building. The curious drift of events this summer concerning each of these four problems has served to set up opposing factions for what may be the stormiest congressional session of recent years—with the presidential campaign of 1928 in the background. The situation in the Senate is precarious. There, Republicans have a theoretical majority of one, which means no working majority at all. In fact, Democrats probably would be able to organize the Senate if they strenuously desired the committee chairmanships and the responsibility for legislation which will be handled. Here is the way the situation lines up on the four moot questions, according to word brought to the President by his congressional lieutenants: Budget figures indicate that a tax cut is dangerous and that under no conditions should more than $300,000,000 be slashed from present

revenue. Republicans have pledged themselves to reduce chiefly the corporations and SIOO,OOO income classes without reduction on normal incomes. Democrats and some independent Republicans are calling for a reduction of at least $500,000,000 and elimination of taxes on small incomes. It is doubtful if the Republicans can maintain their position in the Senate. Administration farm leaders have advanced a. plan for development of cooperative marketing facilities under Government supervision which has not brought hearty support of advocates of the old McNary? Haugen price stabilization measure. Farm bloc members indicate they will press their old bill vetoed by Mr. Coolidge last session. Navy List Breakdown of the ''Geneva disarmament conference, the French proposal to outlaw war, the foreign debt situation, suggested changes in administration by Philippine islands, proposal for a change in the Chinese policy—all are on the priority debating list. Adherents of a larger navy already have made known their plan of seeking authorizations in v the next Congress which will build up light cruiser and seaplane strength to a point which great Britain indicated she intended to reach, in her proposal submitted at the unsuccessful Geneva lftnitations conference.
