WAR RESOLUTION IN HOUSE.
But the Day Mostly Spent n the Con
sideration of Old War Claims

But the ,Day Mostly Spent IN the Con
sidesration of Old War Claims.
Washington, ID. c., March 29.-The
House to-day quietly proceeded with tine
order OF the day-the consideration OF
private bills. No opportunity was al
forded under the rules of debating the
all-absorbing topic but members stood
about the cloak rooms and Hobbies all
day long discussing the situation. The
most intense feeling was manifested.
The House after passing a bill to pen
sion the widow of General John l.. Ste
venson, at the rate of $50 per month,
devoted the whole day to the conSidera-
ton of the bill to pay certain claims for
stores and supplies furnished to the I'm
ion by loyal citizens of the South during
the war. There was n bitter contest
over Il claim of $217, 900 preferred by
the heirs of the widow of General Rob
ert e. Lee. She inherited the claim
from Mrs. FitZhugh, her aunt, who it
was admitted, was loyal.
Mr.. Swanson (Dem., Val who cham
pi0ned the payment of the claim, said
that Mrs. Lee was the heir of Mrs. Fitz-
hugh and he thought in this enlightened
age it was outrageous to set up the con-
tention that the blood of Robert E. Lee
could not inherit property given them
by loyal citizen of the United States.
Messrs. Yost (Rep., Va.,) and Jones
(Dem., Va.,) supported the claim, but it
was stricken out. 92-S1
When the bin was reported to the
House Mr.. Swanson demanded a roll
call ON the Lee claim. The vote in com
mittee was confirmed 1921.
The House recessed before the bill
was passed. 1t provides for the pay
ment of about $50 claims aggregating
about 81 100000.
Representative Marsh, of Illinois.
Chairman of the House Committee on

ment of Spain and her dependencies and

ARMY POST AT RALEIGH
ENTHUSIASTIC MEETING OF THE CHAMBER
or COMMERCE.
The Solid and Progressive Citizens of RaIeigt
Moving to Secure the Location Of
the Army Post.

A full meeting of the Chamber of
Commerce was held last night to take
action looking to securing the location
of an army post in Raleigh.
President Raney in calling the meeting
to order congratulated the Chamber
upon the fact that there was now a
prospect of securing the location of an
army post at Raleigh.
The letter from Senator Pritchard was
read, in which the Senator expressed the
befief that Raleigh could certainly get
the post if a suitable track of land, con-
tanning 1920 acres would be donated
by the city.
Mr.. G. NJ. Busbee, chairman of the
committee, reported that until the war
talk. there had been no chance TO secure
the location of the post in Raleigh. The
situation has changed and now the col1n-
try is alive to the necessity of prepara-
tions for war. There is only one thing
to be done: we must tender to the
government a tract of land of 1,2OO
acres, suitably situated, with the advan.
tages for an army post. First, we must
see if we can raise the money; second,
to decide which is the best site. The
question is whether we have enough
enterprise and liberality to secure the
post. 1t would be worth as much to
Raleigh as an addition of 5000 to
our population in the trade that would
come to us.
Mr. Drewry. Mr.. Pogue, Mr.. McPhee-
tiers. Messrs. ]. A. Jones. w. M. Russ. "A.
A. Thompson made remarks, all in favor
of the post.
The chair named the following COM
mittee to take the matter in hand:

Tho manufacturers Of Castoria have been
compelled to spend hundreds Of thousands Of
dollars to familiarize the public with the sig.

necessitated by reason Of pirates counterfeit
