WAR FAILS TO EXCITE CAPITAL! IT'S TWmU Congress Was Only in Session 24 Minutes First " Week Elliott Was There.

By RAMSEY P0UND8T0NE WASHINGTON. July 12. The Indiana visitor who comes to Washington these days .expecting to find the capital In a fever-heat of war excitement has- a surprise In store for him. The fever-heat prevails, but It is due entirely to Old Sol. Washington is too much a southern city to become excited. "Why get excited, it makes you perspire so," says your Washingtonian as he goes to his work, about 9 o'clock each morning so Washington Is merely Interested, not excited, about this war. The visitor In Washington is constantly reminded, however, that the country Is at war, for the city is overrun with troops "Sammies" in tholr olive-drab; Impudent looking JacWes, for the most part mere boys, stately marines in their gaudy uniforms of blue and red and yellow facings; natty looking French aviators' In grey-blue uniforms; Russian officers and British, French and Italian sailors. " 'Dick" Elliott, the Sixth Indiana district's new representative In congress, has not had much of an opportunity to "get onto his duties as a lawmaker. The irst week he was in Washington the House was in session only twenty-four minutes. There wfli be plenty of work for the House, however, as soon as the Senate disposes of the Food Control and War Revenue measures. In the meantime the House will busy Itself with the bill which appropriates about $600,000,000 for TJncle Sam's new aerial navy. Democratic leaders in congress still declare that congress will be ready to adjourn by the middle of August, but Senator Watson and other Republican leaders will be surprised if congress adjourns before the middle of September. It probably will be some time before the Senate and the House get together on a prohibition section in the Food bill mutually satisfactory, and In framing the Revenue bill the Senate has a long grind before It, and when the Senate finishes with this measure It will have to go back to the House. ' As a rule, anywhere you go in

Washington you can find some one

THE RICHMOND PALLADIUM AND SUN-TELEGRAM, THURSDAY, JULY 12, 1917

from ' Indiana, but there has been a dearth of Indiana visitors, particularly residents of the Sixth District, at the

capital the past ten days. Perhaps the terrors of the Washington summer

is keeping them away. Mr. and Mrs. Will W. Keller spent Fourth of July here. Jack Henley of Indianapolis, secretary of the Republican State Committee; Will Adams, reporter of the Indiana Supreme Court and "Deacon" Roach," of Delphi, a member of the Republican state committee, have been visitors here. The same day they arrived P.' J. Lynch of Newcastle put in an appearance. He is on a business trip." A Richmond young man, Rudolph Hill, is taking an active part in the government's investigation of the coal situation, as an investigator for the Federal Trades' Commission. Perhaps no district in the United States responded more enthusiastically to the plea of the Department of Agriculture for a greater food production than the Sixth Indiana, and no doubt, there are a great number of Wayne county "home gardeners" who will be greatly interested in reading two pamphlets Just issued by the government for the canning and drying of fruits and vegetables in the homes. There is an abnormal demand, for these pamphlets but Representative Elliott has a limited supply of them at his disposal. These pamphlets are entitled: Farmers Bulletin 839 Home Canning bv the One-Period, Cold-Pack Method; and Farmers' Bulletin 841, Drying Fruits and Vegetables in the Home. Those desiring copies of these bulletins should address their communications to Rep. R. N. Elliott, Room 354, House Office Building, Washington, D. C.

HOUGH ADDRESSES INDIANA LAWYERS

INDIANAPOLIS, July 12. The twenty-first annual meeting of the Indiana state bar association opened here yesterday. Attorneys from all parts of the Btate were present. The subject of the annual address of the president, William A. Hough, of Greenfield, was "The Law and Civilization." He asserted the present war could not be averted because the peoples of the nations were so busy with laws of their own respective governments they did not have laws to enforce peace. "We do not want an international law rdil.Mnsr war." he declared. "We

want an International law blotting war

forever from the face of the eartn, ana instituting instead an international court which shall establish by its decrees Justice among nations as our courts do now among individuals. The meeting will close Thursday afternoon with the election of officers for the ensuing year.
