HUEY'S ENEMIES LACK VOTES TO BAN FILIBUSTER Kingfish Continues Ravings Against Work Relief Measure. Jlp I'mitid Prnt WASHINGTON. March 14 —Any effort to stop Huey Long's threatened niibLster of the $4 880 000.000 work-relief bill appeared today to be doomed to defeat. A tao-third's vote Is required to limit debate by the cloture rule and it was unlikely that such a proposal would receive even a bare majority. The threat of cloture was voiced bv Senator Carter Glass <D., Va., who has become increasingly exasperated at slow progress of the bill. While Senator Glass does not approve of the bill he, as chairman of the appropriations committee, is in charge of its presentation to the Senate. Three days of desultory debate were climaxed by Long's open threat of a filibuster. Long's tactics, sometimes by long, rambling speeches, have delayed the measure. Vote Scheduled Today. Long has a knack of scribbling out admendments at his desk and sending them up for approval. Defeat does not discourage him. He was beaten. 75 to 5, on a proposal to allocate SI.OOO 000 000 for college educations, but he bobbed up yesterday with another proposal to earmark $300,000,000 for the same purpose A vote on the $300,000,000 amendment was scheduled for today. Long ••aid he would whittle the amount down to SISOOOOOOO if necessary, but that he would insist on a vote. "Ml take what I can get." he said. "If we can save something out of this bill to do some good with it will be better than just letting them waste the whole amount.” Long's threat of a filibuster was delivered during a lecture which he delivenxi on senatorial courtesies. Threatens Fight Over Pairs He complained that Senator John Overton >D.. La > and Senator Hattie Caraway <D. Ark had been unable to find pairs for the approaching vote on the prevailing wag; amendment. Both are in favor of the amendment. “I’m perfectly capable of standing here until some other people get sirk and won't be able to vote. ! either.” he said. Overton and Mrs. Caraway are ill. j If they can find Senators who are to the amendment who; would pair with them and refrain from voting the effect would be the same as if all four voted. That is the usual Senate custom. But if none of the Senators who intend to voe against the amendment will agree to be paired with the two ill Senators. Administration forces intent on defeating the j amendment will gain two votes. LIQUOR THIEVES EVADE LOVERS' LANE PATROL Fugitives Relieved Thieves Sought for 5400 Theft.

Bock Beer Is Back; Gets Usual Royal Welcome as Sure Harbinger of Spring

ifMTI W 1111 fRE wrimr* - ~#§ . ijgaiLrr \

T.V the winter, fall and summer i you count sheep and go to \ sleep. In the spring, however, you count bock, or goat, beers—and probably go to sleep, too. Bock beer, the first of which will go on sale here tomorrow, is one of the signs of spring. It is more generally recognized than the turning of young men's fancies, and much more significant in these post-prohibition days than the sprouting of dande- | lions. Bock beer is thicker than ordinary' beer. It has a syrupy texture, so much so that in years gone by that very quality was used in testing it. In the old country. Germany, where the making and drinking of beer was an art among arts, the brewers made bock beer of the | first fall crops. He forthwith put it in casks in stone caves for the winter, and brought it out by way of celebration in the spring. „ THE brewer, whose reputation, and often very economic existence, depended upon the delectable quality of his first, or bock, beer, gathered representative citii zens about him. poured a quantity of bock beer on a chair, and sat ! down. He remained seated for a spectable length of time and then, with all eyes fixed on his every gesture, slowly arose. If the chair stuck to his pants, the beer was of the correct consistency and his summer beer was bound to have a profitable following. The origin of the name is somewhat in doubt. Some say the best bock beer was made in Einbock or Einbeck, Germany, and that since that word means 'One Billy-Goat" the sign and the "Bock” derived therefrom. Others say that bock beer was named for the inevitable goat mascot every old-country brewery had. Whichever it was. bock beer is bock beer and should be drunk and not read about! FOREIGN LEGION BARS BRITISH DUKE'S SON Lord Edward Montagu "Refused” After Intervention. By l mih and Press MARSEILLES, France. March 14. —Lord Edward Montagu, second son of the Duke of Manchester, was out of the Foreign Legion again today and on his way to Parts. Officially he was discharged on being pronounced physically unfit after his final physical examinarion before departure for Sidi Bel Ab >es and the hot sands of Africa. But it was understood that the iron regulations of the Legion were bent in his behalf through intervention of the British government at the request of his family.

Since it's spring. Miss Helen Duranty believes she can almost down this quart stein of thick bock beer. Clyde Hoffa. bartender and operator of the tavern at 1228 Oliver-av, knows that, when Miss Duranty feels she can drink no more, he can blow off the foam and go ‘‘bottoms up.”

Attack on Christianity Target of Bishop’s Talk Protestant Episcopal Leader of Oklahoma Speaks at Lenten Services at Christ Church Here. The most popular modem attack upon Christianity is in the region of morals, the Rt. Rev. Thomas Casady. Protestant Episcopal bishop of Oklahoma said in his Lenten service yesterday at Christ Church on the Circle. "The sum and substance of that attack is contained in the accusation that humanity can not possibly live according to Christian standards,” Bishop Casady said. "Such criticism is specious and plausible, but

although it gains support from the lives of many Christians, it is far from being the whole truth.” Lenten services for Slovenian persons in Marion and Morgan Counties are being conducted daily at the Holy Trinity Slovenian Roman Catholic Church, Holmes-av and St. Clair-st, by the Rev. Alexander Uranker, pastor of St. Stephen’s Roman Catholic Church, Chicago. These services are held at 5, 6 and 8 a. m-, and at 7:30 p. m. Sunday afternoon beginning at 2 a holy year pilgrimage will be made to SS. Peter and Paul Cathedral and St. Mary's Roman Catholic Church. Solemn closing of the Lenten mission and holy year in the Holy Trinity Church v'ill follow at 4:30 that afternoon. Bishop Ralph C. Cushman. Denver, Colo., will speak at the Broadway Methodist Episcopal Church supper tonight and at services at 7:45 in the church chapel.

GENERAL STRIKE IN SHIPPING IS FEARED Oil Tanker Walkout May Spread, Is Belief. By United Press SAN PEDRO, Cal., March 14. Pacific Coast shipping was in a critical state today as the coastwise oil tanker 6trike threatened to spread to general cargo vessels. Arrival of two general cargo ships was anxiously awaited to determine whether the tanker strike, which has affected 200 seamen in Los Angeles harbor and approximately 800 along the Pacific Coast, will be extended. Rumors persisted that the general strike order had been issued, but union officials denied this. Longshoremen have definitely announced that they will not participate in a general cargo strike here. JOHN 0. ENJOYS SPIN, HEALTH SEEMS GOOD Oil Magnate’s Appearance Routs Rumors of Illness. By United Press DAYTONA BEACH, Fla., March 14.—John D. Rockefeller Sr. today had personally routed recent reports that he was ill by taking an automobile ride through the streets here, watching the city's activities frem the rear seat of his sedan. The 95-year-old oil magnate appeared to be in good health and walked to the automobile from his home unassisted except by the arm of an attendant as he descended a short flight of stairs.

M'NUTT READY TO PICK LIQUOR CONTROL BOARD Four to Be Named, Possibly Today, at Salaries of S6OOO Annually. The bi-partisan alcoholic beverage commission, key unit in the newlyestablished state liquor control act, is expected to be named today by Gov. Paul V. McNutt. The commission will be composed of four members, including the state excise director, and will have wide powders to enforce and promulgate regulations, and issue licenses. Each member of the commission will receive an annual salary of S6OOO and traveling expenses. Paul Fry. Linton, appointed state excise director two years ago, will serve as acting administrator until Gov. McNutt replaces or reappoints him. If reappointed, Mr. Fry will receive a salary increase of SIOOO per year. Immediately after its appointment the commission will be called together by the Governor to study the new law thoroughly. Meanwhile, Mr. Fry will not attempt to interpret the new act or advise county and city officials on enforcement. Fry withholds Opinion "There have been so many Interpretations of the act, it would be unwise to give a curbstone opinion of what should be done,” Mr. Fry said. "We are having the new law indexed by the attorney general’s office, and should know' its provisions within a few days.” He said actual enforcement of the new law could not be started before April 15 when the state system is expected to be in operation. Meanwhile, hotels, restaurants, taverns, roadhouses and night clubs, many of which will be forced to quit selling beer and hard liquor, will operate in violation of the law. No efforts will be made by State officials to enforce the new Sunday closing law this week, Mr. Fry said. "If local officials wish to take it upon themselves to enforce that provision, it will be satisfactory with our department,” he said. Loophole Seen in Law Rural night clubs and roadhouses, which are supposed to be outlawed, will be permitted to operate under a wide interpretation of the act, attorneys here believe. The section permits rural clubs, with an established membership and certain investments to sell any kind of alcoholic beverages. The “loophole,” according to attorneys, is the provision that "no permit will be issued under any circumstances to a club which is likely to obtain a permit for maintaining a roadhouse or night club as the term is commonly understood.” Under provisions of the act, all rural retailers may sell beer but not hard liquor until June 1 when all permits expire. ARCHITECTS OF CITY HEAR LIGHTING EXPERT Importance in Home Designing Is Stressed by Speaker. The importance of lighting as a factor in designing homes was discussed by E. W. Commery, Cleveland, before a group of architects and home decorators last night at L. S. Ayres X Cos. Mr. Commery, a director of the lighting institute of the National Electric Light Association, cited many instances to prove that balanced illumination, with many more light units per room than are now commonly used, is a major trend in architectural planning.

CHILD'S WAGON STOLEN DURING MERCYJRRAND Loaned to Young Neighbor, Vehicle Is Taken at Hospital. Gone but not forgotten is the little green wagon of Charles Hawkins, 9-year-old philanthropist of 325 Beauty-av. someone stole it yesterday from in front of City Hospital, where it was parked on an errand of mercy. Charles had loaned the wagon to Marjorie Mildred McCurdy, his 6-year-old neighbor who two weeks ago was severely burned on the right leg by scalding water. Every day until today Marjorie’s father has put her in the wagon end pulled her to City Hospital for treatment. Charles volunteered the use of his wagon. It was while the wagon was parked in front of the hospital yesterday that someone removed it. Charles says he's sorry for Marjorie's sake. He was pretty stoical about the prospect of having to carry groceries home in his arms Saturday instead of hauling them home in the little vehicle.
