FORYEAR Republican Leaders of Opinion All Agree With President BY GEORGE R. HOLMES STAFF CORRESPONDENT I. N. SERVICE WASHINGTON-. fee. 9. The sentence of death has been passed on the railroad labor board, but it apears certain today there Trill be a stay of execution for at least a year. Republican leaders of all shades fo opinion in congress agreed today with President Harding that tho storm toed board, as at present constituted, has outlived its useful, riess. Rut the method by which the execution will be carried out was a matter tf considerably discussion and di verse ju views. A careful survey of the existing situation in congress disclosed to administration leaders that there is but slight hope of carrying cut between now and March 4 more than a small part of the far reaching recommendations nie.de by Fresi dent Harding in his mesage. If the president's program is to be carried out, therefore, it. would apparently necessitate an extra session of thj new 6Sth congress, rvith its reduced Repialican majorities, immediately after the expiration of the 6Tth on March 4. President Harding is not la favor of an e:-tra session next bummer. Nevertheless, the president's nics?ar. will be made the vehicle for a new drive fir an extra session, Senator I-aF'.llc?le, Republican, of Wisconsin, and his so-called "Progressive'" li utenants from tho grain belt, -will conduct the drive. They v.-ii! insist they said today, that ttie urgent nfcd for action In the railroad and agricultural situations necessitate an extra session and they will quote from th3 president's mesage to back up their arguments. It may bt? possible, administrat':i leaders said today, to carry tut in the next ten weeks portions) of the president's program dealing wi'h agricultural relic. and the constitutional amendment prohibition ch'ld labor. ij attempt, however, -will probably be made to open up the rail road situation. Senator Cummins, i republican, of Iowa, author of the transportation act. said today would Introduce no legislation In the present session to abolish the labor board. Once the, railroad situation is opened up in the senate some lively fighting is certain. LaFollette, Brook hart, Norrls, I.add, Capper and oth'ra of the so-called progresvsle group are merely biding their timo and waiting for an opportunity to tear the Esch-Cumrnins bill to shreds. Meanwhile, the much-shot-at labor board "will continue to live and made decisions at Chicago, even though under sentence of death. FLUMSIS Eight Saloons Only Are Closed on TemporaryInjunctions. Excitement over the serving of injunction writs against West Hammond saloons has subsided somewhat since It has been learned that the United Etates marshals were not acting upon the batch of permanent !n junctions which were granted against twelve saloons recently. Eight saloons are closed but they are only on temporary Injunctions. No permanent writs were served. Several of the saloonmen who were expecting permanent writs got bury with their lawyers when the marshals visited them and found that instead of gstting the original rap they were looking for they were receiving the advance tap of a second dose. These men whom the law is hitting tv.-ice have more than one violation to their credit and in the end wi'l probably be closed up for two years or more. The hearings to make the writs remanent will be held in the federal ourt twenty days after the service of the temporary injunctions. Until then the "soft drink parlors" niust remain tinder lock and key -with the government holding the key. G F"iv day after their Crown Point wedding, according to Henry Johnson. 6123 S.

They were married last Fourth of July and he tiled a suit for divor- '--af erday.

KILLING WAS Wallie Schultz. 14-year-old Lansing village "bad boy" and slayer of lLrrnan Wolff, this morning -was remanded to the Chicago and Cook County School for Boys at Riverside for an indeterminate period. He will go back to the school in which he served fifty-three days early this year for tho robbery of a Lansing grocery store. Coroner II J. White, at the inquest held this morning in the j Superior Court blulding at Ham- ! mond, found . that Herman Wolff ! came to his death accidentally but through the "ignorance and carelessness of Walter Scbultz." Wolff's parents stoutly maintained that the punishment meted out to young Schultz was not sufficient. Mrs. Wolff, mother of Herman, who was killed by Schultz last Sunday afternoon when the lad passed a dare to Schultz to pull the trigger of the new shotgun he held in his hands, repeated over and over again the dying -words of her son that, "Walter should be hang- ! ed, he should be hanged. Clyde Cleveland, counsel for the Wolff family, in -winding up his case before the coroner, stated that no matter what disposal the authorities made of the boy, one thing was certain, and that was that Schultz should not be allowed to return to Lansing. The village was rid of him and didn't -want to see him again with a possible repetition of the scene that robbed Wolff of his life. Three boy companions of young Wolff present at the shooting testified at the inquest. Attorney W. J. McAleer, who volunteered his service In the defense of Walter Schultz, brought out tha factthat Schultz rushed up to Wolff after he had b;en shot and tried to hold the crumbling figure of the boyupright. Ho -was terrified h had done and when neighbors pouring out homes attracted by the by what he saw of their shot, he dropped the bleeding figure of young Wolff and fled. M. W. West, probation officer of the Juvenile court of Cook county and Miss Rose Ostrowskl of the Riverside Boy's school took charge of Schultz following the inquest. Mr. West testified that the first step his department will take in the regeneration of young Schultz will bo to subject him to a thorough mental examination. Tho boy is 14 years of age. He is In the fourth grade at school. kit, father testified that he bought his son the shotgun usd In the killing of Wolff as an incentive to Walter's better attendance school. at LECTURE ON FLAG An historical, informative and patriotic address by lr.

Governor Warren T. McCray, when asked as to whom bis support would go. retired his declaration that he would take no sides in either the Houso or the Senate race, furthering his statement by adding that the administration has no program outlined for the session. "The close division of rarty membership in the House -would not permit a break in the ranks of the majority side," the governor said. "Therefore, I am not taking sides" Friends of the Lake County men claim support will be thrown to Ncjdl or Harris by the administration, because of the small number of appointments made from that county during the past two years. Because of the overwhelming: number of Republican farmer members in the lower House, friends of Pittenger discount the reputed strength of Mr. Harris' support, claiming to have enough votes to elect thHr man. Candidacies of the other seekers of the House leadership are not looked on with sny degreo of fer by the supporters of Harris and Pittensjer. Neither Harrison, Smith nor Duffoy are expected to remain In the race long after opening of the majority caucus t !-..- J night before the opening of the session.
