Washington SicLeligMs —n — J Congress to Be Flooded With Oratory

Washington. —Congress is lively to be deluged by oratory cn the subject of establishing trade relations with Russia at the coming session. Many members of both houses have been over during the summer in search of first-hand information as to conditions, and they agree in about the same way water and oil mix. For example, announcement was made in New York by three members Os eungrt'-ss of their conviction that such a treaty should be established and the statement was made in Washington almost simultaneously by Representative Fred A. Brlttm# (Rep., III.), that he was unalterably opiwsed to any negotiations with the present Russian government. The members who gave thi"dr views in New York were Senator Ladd (Rep., N. !>.), Senator King (Dem., Utah), and Representatlye Frear (Rep., Wls.). The latter call themselves a commission and their tour was facilitated by the soviet government. They made this statement: “The commission is

Museum, Alas! Has No Pink-Headed Duck

A DEER that rings like a bell, a deer that barks like a dog. the Malabar langur mimkey. which has a military organization, and the tslne, which is deteribed as tb.i- finest sporting animal ; In the world, are among the 450 specimens from India turned over to the American Museum of Natural History by R. S. Vamay of the Varnay-Faun-thorpe expedition. But alas! The pink-headed duck was conspicuous by its absence. The pinkheaded duck was really the main purpose of the scientists. They hunted the pink-headed duck through the jungles and swamps <rf Nepal, near the Himalayas, with fifty elephants and a thousand men. but didn’t have a glimpse of a water fowl with a head sf the right tint. There are six stuffed pink-headed jacks in the British museum, but none elsewhere. This expedition was formed chiefly to provide the American Museum of Natural History witli this distinguished fowl, but the hunters came to the conclusion that it was extinct. They swarmed through thicket and marsh with hundreds of tons of pachyderms t't.d armies of natives, terrifying hundreds of varieties of water

Davis Preparing New. Immigration Bill

SECRETARY OF LABOR JAMES J. DAVIS, after spending the summer in Europe, is embodying the results of his study abroad, as well as of bis previous thought here, in the preparation of a new Immigration bill, which he hopes to present to the next congress. He lias-made no official announcement of the nature of the bill, but he has talked in public to the following effect: ••We are faced with the necessity of determining on-our Immigration policy. At present <»ur immigration Is centrolled under the 3 per cent quota law. Tliis law will expire on tl»e last day of next June and. unless we write a new immigration law before that time, we will have immignttion without restriction. “I favor an immigration program based on these points: “First —The examination of every protective immigrant before he leaves his native land. By this means we would make sure that the applicant was eligible .for admission to the United States before he started on a 2,000mile voyage. This matter could be at-

Attorney General Upholds Secretary

A TTOKNEY GENERAL \ DAUGHERTY has rend-r- : y an optolon which apparently settles a spirited controversy | between the secretary of the navy and ; the controller general of the budget in : regard to Juristiiction over the financial i accounts of officers and enlisted men !of the navy. The attorney general susstatos the contention of Secretary Den | by that he, and not Controller General I McCari, has the right to determine whether expenditures of government money by persons to the naval service are made In the line of duty. This opinion has an important bearing on the jurisdiction of the controller general In other respects than the cases covered by the attorney general's ruling. It seems to lay down the principle that in all cases of the expenditure of government money the heads of departments, and not the controller general, shall determine whether the persons making the expenditures had the right to do so. One phase at the matter involves anether case concemlag the contention of

preparing a full report dealing with, conditions In Russia. This involves the examination of accumulated data, many statements and documents, but the commission will be ready to report soon. We state, however, that in general we believe we found conditions in Russia bester than reported by many persons and favor that immediate steps be taken by the United States looking toward the re-establish-ment of trade relations between the ttyo countries." “I traveled unofficially In Russia,’" Representative Britten said, “selected my own guides,, sought no favors, and really tried to set' tub good side of that tremendous political theory which is now holding 150,000,000 people in subjection. I have completely changed my opinion and am quite convinced that any recognition of bolshevik Russia is only lending strength to a cause which sooner or later must fail.” Nearly a dozen other members have traveled extensively In Europe and may be expected to add their quota.

bints which rose with strange squawks They interested a number of rajahs, offered rewards of 200 rupees, or S7O, and sent squads of hunters in every direction where pink-headed ducks were reported. They were fooled again and again by a psuedo-pink-headeil duck, the red-crested poichard, but bagged none with the true coral shade. Mr. Varnay'sald that the quest of the pink-headed duck would be continued when the expedition starts again this fall in search of little known animals. One of these is the Schomburgh deer whose horns have been brought in by natives, but which has never bWU caught or killetl by whites. Another object of the new expedition is the capture of a giant land tortoise which has left’ footprints fifteen to eighteen inches long but has never been seen b» man so far as is known. These and other rare specimens are to be’bagged it is expected, in the course of an over -tend march through a country where "no white man has been before am! where no natives live. They will gc from Mohimein, Burma, south .through Burma, across the Tack plateau" into Slanl and along the Neping river tc Bangkok.

Success is the only standard by which the fitness of the players car. be measured. Failure eliminates anc there is no appeal.” According to the author there art two big lobbies, the public and the private, and he adds: "The public lobbj speaks more loudly, but the privatt lobby gets more substantial and more immediate results.” He cites instances In which the pri vate lobby made its force felt in no un certain way. He charges that private lobbies made their iulluenee count iu the enactment of railroad lav.s, propositions to, regulate the packing, and the coal industry and various other mat ters of legislation. He also points out the victories of the public lobby, in eluding the passage of the parcel post law, the defeat of. the dyestuffs em bargo, and the adoption of the resolu tion authorizing the submission to tin people of the amendment providing foi tlie direct election of United State* senators.

When asked if he were sympathetic with a plea often heard from employer* and others that the immigration bar; be let down because we are short o: labor, and that thus the labor marke; can become better able to meet bui present demands, he said: “If this means unlimited, unrestrict cd*immigration, I say no. The sac’s of the immediate past and the pretien show that unlimited immigration, ot even inniii unduly extended will not obtain for us the labor that w< need. Certainly immigration we re eeived in 1U22 did not bring us labor.* X

Out in the Arabian desert, five-days by caravan from Bagdad, stands the i holy city of Nejef, and in the whole of the town of almost 100,000’ persons there ! < hardly a house with windows. Also, beneath many homes are immense caves, hewn out of the limestone that underlies the desert round about. Many of these caves are built one room below the other, some of the lower apartments being 100 feet-be-low the street level. These underground chambers are reached by winding stairways, also hewn from the rock. They were originally built bi provide a refuge from the intense heat of midsummer, but in many instances they have now become a refuge for Arab criminals and robbers who dwell at Nejef and prey on the caravans <jf Mecca pilgrims. Nejef itself is a great pilgrim city, and each’* ivoteee from Persia and Turkestan make the journey to the holy Nejef., bringing with them the salted and dried bodies of their dead for burial in sacred soil outside the city walls.
