itself should take the lead in the inspiration; that
first Of all high taxation inhbltory Of outside investment

Then came an era of paint Of BODYBUILDING an

THE QUESTION OF ALIENS STAT
US IN THE SENATE WAS FIN
ALLY SETTLED TODAY.

WASHINGTON, March S-The Ques-
ton was settled in the senate today
concerning Allen of Nebraska. He
presumably retired at the end of the
last congress, but having the COVER
nor's appointment and no senator be-
ing yet chosen by the legislature he
maintained his right to sit in the pres
ent congress
Today Senator Hoar brought the
matter up by calling for an executive
session and the reading of the roll,
remarking that if no one objected to
Aliens name he would be regarded as
a senator by right.
This was done. No objection was
made. Mr.. Allen declined on the roll
call to answer to his name, but will
do so hereafter.
While the business of the session is
of the most ordinary routine character
the galleries are packed to suffocation
as though some great event was on.
The reason probably is that senate is
the only show place now open.
