FIGHT TO HALT RECESS LOOMS FOR CONGRESS Senators to Demand Action on Secrecy Rule Before Adjournment. OPPONENTS BACK DOWN Drastic Revision Pressed by Jones: Norris Seeks to Force Vote. BY P\\ F- R. MAIXON •'faff (orrf^nnlrnt WASHINGTON. May 25.—A formidable croup is bring organized in the Senate. it, developed today. to prevent the recess of Congress next, week unless the Senate acts to amend its secrecy rule before that time. At the same time, arrangements v ere completed for start, of the ■enate rules committee inquiry Monday into alleged violations of the rule by senators. Senator Wesley L. Jones, assistant Republican leader and author of a pending plan to change the rules, with Senator George Norris, who has tought the secrecy restriction for fifteen years, are forming a band designed to force a vote on the issue. There are indications that the few Republican leaders who sternly have opposed the suggested change are not only resigned now to a modification of the rules, but will champion a specific plan for a change. One of this group. Senator David A. Reed of Pennsylvania, has announced he would propose an amendment whereby all presidential nominations would be considered in secret, provided the roll call votes are officially made public. Jones Has Drastic Plan This is a less drastic revision than proposed by Jones, who would provide for open debate on nominees unless the senate, by majority vote, decides otherwise. Senator Black of Alabama also has pending a plan to have all nominations considered and voted upon in open session. The leaders are reported to have been won over to the change by the public reaction expressed in newspapers throughout the country, and through other public agencies, following publication by the United Prcsy of rhe secret votes on confirmation of former Secretary of Interior Roy O. West and Customs Judge Irvinue Lenroot. The West roll was the first secret vote ever published. In view of this change of sentiment. the rules committee investigation into recent senatorial violations of the old rule is not expected to be pressed drastically. Only one witness has been subpoenaed, the United Press correspondent who obtained the two rolls. He is to be questioned in open hearing Monday, with privilege of counsel. Senators Not to Be Called It is considered hardly likely that .he commitee will call each or any of the ninety-five sitting senators to ask if they gave out the rolls. Members of the committee are said to be convinced it will be impossible or impracticable 'to determine the source of the votes. A change In the rules will settle the matter, they think. Jor.es plans to bring up his amendment as soon as the senate passes the reapportionment bill, •possibly late today. Senator Borah of Idaho also is seeking consideration of his perishable products supervision bill upon which he has been promised action before recess. The farm conferees are to acid their fifth meeting and although the;.- are in a close deadlock, an agreement is expected to be repor- ed before the middle of next week. The decision may lead to extended senate discussion, because of the probability that the senate debenture amendment will be eliminated from the bill. May Delay Recess Therefore it seems probable that Jones and Norris may have to delay the recess scheduled a week from today rs they hope to get action on their rules revision. Other matters may take up the intervening time. Tne house is grinding out compromise farm amendments to the tariil bill like wheat from a thrashing machine. There are ninety-one amendments to be adopted and no or hers are to be considered. All will be cleared up in time for final passage of the bill, scheduled for Tuesday. BOY. 8.

Established In 1879 The Times was established In September. 1879, ar> a Sunday newspaper. It was so successful in that field that Mr. Mack decided to convert it. into a daily. So the Evening Times was launched in 1883. It has grown from year to year, netting Mack nation-wide recognition as a publisher, together with a large fortune. Mack’s career presents another of those in American life with which business history is replete. From the lowly position of a clerk who swept out a country store at Pontiac, Mich., to the proprietorship of a newspaper nt wide influence, are the two extremes in his career. He is best remembered by tire ation for his activities while chairman of the Democratic national committee. He came to Buffalo in 1874.

He became an advertising solicitor, and thus was given his first introduction to the newspaper business. In the four years after he came to Buffalo he engaged in various enterprises, most ot them allied with advertising and newspapers. In 1879 he established the Jamestown Sunday Gazette at Jamestown, on Lake Chautauqua. At the end of a year he sold out and returned to Buffalo. Mack's pay roll in 1879 listed the names of about one dozen persons. Today it numbers approximately 4,000. not including the corps of news correspondents, newsboys, etc. Others Bought Recently The Scripps-Floward newspapers were founded by E. W. Scripps in 1879 with the Cleveland Press, approximately the time of the start of the Buffalo Times. Papers established or acquired in recent years are the New York Telegram: Rocky Mountain News.

I j Bu Vnited Press FT. WORTH. Tex., May 25.—A | bright sun beamed down on Meaj cham field today, bringing added | cheer to the light hearts of Reg ; Robbins and Jim Kelly, youthful j airplane pilots, whose efforts to es- | tablish anew sustained, flight rec- | ord seemed destined to end in success. The two have almost completed their sixth day in continuous flight. Rain fell Friday night, adding difficulties of the flight, but before midnight—as the fliers passed, their one hundred and thirty-secona hour in the air—the skies cleared The monotonous roar of the rei built whirlwind motor of the Ryan ■ monoplane has droned, in the ears lof the two men nearly six days, j They went aloft at 11:33 a. m. Sun- ! day, and if their circling continues, I they will pass the one hundred and j forty-fourth hour at 11:33 a. m. today. Seven Hour's to Go About seven hours later, Robbins j and. Kelly will equal the present susj tained flight record, provided noth- | ing develops to bring a sudden end Ito their flight. The mark, 150:40:16, I was established by the army plane ; Question Mark. j The passing of that mark, at 6:13 j p. m. today, will not see the end of their efforts, however, according to the two. They hope to continue soaring‘over Ft. Worth until a record many hours greater is established. The two weary men have taken turns at the controls of the, plane during the last week. The notes they have dropped to the spectators I indicated their spirits were buoyed : high. I There remains only the one sus- ! tained flight record for the two to I break. They have passed all others. ! the last to be broken being the mark i of 118 hours set by the French dirigible Dixmude. Strain Shows on Faces The strain of their efforts is tell- : ing, according to the refueling | crew, K. K. Hoffman and H. S. ! Jones. They said the faces of the ; young men acre drawn and pinched j from the constant strain of tending j the motors, the roar of the engine in their ears and the fact that their | sleep is broken. j None the less fhere is nothing but j optimism evidenced in the notes the ' Ft. Worth's crew have dropped. I They are cheered by word from j well-wishers on the ground and : their wives frequently come up in I other planes to wave courage to : them.

They can can read how j the world is watching their flight in j clippings from many newspapers I which are lowered to them, along j with food and clean clothing Robbins takes delight in telling ; the watchers how Kelly misses his I bride of six weeks. “I'm afraid we ! can't last much longer," he said in one note. “Kelly is thinking of his j wife and I can’t refuel alone." After “Real Mark" The determined spirit of the two was evidenced in another note which ended by remarking, “two Texans can beat what any other six guys can do.” There were six men in the army plane Question Mark. Tire men say they are determined to set a “real mark" for other fliers | to shoot at. indicating they hope to stay up several days more. There has not been the slightest hesitation in the Ft. Worth's motor during the six days and nights it has kept droning. Tire nine cylinders have hit with perfect regularity.

“Prohibition is here to stay." he said. “Prohibition rnfist be enforced. There can be no turning back. I do not believe the people of the country want modification." “Did you express that sentiment in your talk with the President," he was asked. “Well, we discussed prohibition," he answered again.

TALLEY BUYS HER FARM IN ! WEST KANSAS ■You Can W"ite That I'm j Retired,' Opera Star Tells Interviewer. JOYFUL OVER FUTURE Cows. Horses, Chickens and Turkeys Will Be Raised by Singer. RV DIXON STEWART, Vnited Press Staff Correspondent KANSAS CITY', Mo„ May 25. With the purchase of a farm twelve miles west of Colby. Kan., by Marion Talley, an agricultural question which received slightly less publicity than did the McNary-Haugen bill has been settled. Marion has done a typical thing in buying it; she has returned to the home country of her mother, and to the country in which her father, C. M. Talley, met and married her mother, who lived in Ellis and Hays, not far from the newly acquired Talley farm. “You can write, ‘Marion Talley, retired singer,' ” said Marion, as she made the announcement. “I am retired, and shall be. Os course I hope you will understand that I have a phonograph record contract that will run nearly three years. I must take care of that. Will Continue Study “I suppose I shall study; I couldn't live without it. But I hope you can convince people I am not studying a comeback. It will be for my own satisfaction.” Marion showed httle interest in discussing her, singing career, which carried her from comparative obscurity in Kansas City to a position as the youngest star ever to appear with the Metropolitan Company of New York. She was intereste donly in the farm and plans for the future. “The farm is a mile square.” she announced. “It’s a beautiful piece of ground, with wheat knee-high and everything tc make p; really fine home. “I'm going to stock it, of course. Chiefly I'm going to be interested in saddle horses right now. I love to ride.
C-ows There, Too. “Os course, I'll have other things. ! I'll have cows—l think Holsteins, ' because they give good milk and go ! well with western Kansas, and because I like their colors anyway. And they raise fine turkeys in that country, and chickens and ducks and geese, and the speckled fowlguinea fowl. “Someone out there gave me three bantam chicks, and someone else, in Cnnecticut, sent four chickens to our New York apartment. If they stand the rip. they might wake up in Kansas some day.” Mis Talley tld of plans for building a house on the farm, probably within two months. The home is to have water, electricity, and all modern conveniences. The farm is just a mile from a paved highway. 240 miles northeast of Denver and 400 miles from Kansas City. Satisfied With Life “I’ve never felt so well satisfied in my life as with this new venture |of mine. The place is beautifully located for one who loves the end- ; less expanse of western Kansas. ; There are no hills on it. but there ; is a crop of wheat that will run forty | bushels to the acre unless something happens, and contrary to eastern ideas, 'things’ don’t 'happen.' as often as is imagined. Crop failures are not frequent out here, and crops good. “This season I'll have my regular owner's share of the crop, since a j tenant is on the farm at present." j Marion has made a good buy, according to Edmund E.

SEA FLIERS RACE FOR SPEED PRIZE
Twenty-One Planes Compete for Curtiss Marine Trophy. RV JOSEPH W. BAIRD United Press Staff Correspondent WASHINGTON. May 25.—Before a gallery of diplomats, legislators, and high officials’ of the army and navy, twenty-one seaplanes and amphibians lined up on the Potomac today to compete for the highest prize of naval aviation —the Curtiss | marine trophy. Before the five classes of planes ! were to start at 3 p. m. on their 100mile course, down the Potomac ten miles and return five times, the crowd was anticipating anew ! “thriller” by Lieutenant < Al) Williams, Crack navy pilot. Williams' was to execute a reverse bank around the home pylon opposite the Anacostia naval air station, a feat never before attempted. Jn rounding a marker a pilot customarily manipulates his plane so, during its forty-five-degree turn, he faces the pylon. Williams, however, has succeeded in executing the horseshoe curve while flying in reverse position and was to give his first public exhibition of the dangerous stunt today. Captain F. O. Rogers of the marine corps also was to thrill the crowd with trick flying. The aviators planned to exhibit the dangerous and infrequently attempted “outside loop.” The prize for which engines were being given their final "tuning” is a silver globe several feet high, on the surface of which a speeding airplane is superimposed. It will be given to the flier achieving the greatest speed, regardless of the type of his plane. It was first awarded by the Aero Club of America in 1911 and is now held by the late Major C. A. Lutz, U. S. M. C., who was killed in a flight last year. In the Air Weather conditions at 9:30 a. m. at Indianapolis airport: South wind, seven miles an hour; i temperature. 69; barometric pressure 30.07 at sea level: ceiilng. high thin overcast at 4,000 feet: visibility, five miles, hazy; field good.
