SENATORS CLASH ON FLOOR
Owen RIsents Imputation of Davis
that He Is in Standard Oil.
Bill to Run Pipe Line Passed, De-
spite Characteristic speech
by Arkansan.

Senator Jeff Davis. of Arkansas, dared
the Senate to pass yesterday a bill giving
the right of way through public lands in
his State to an oil pipe line extending
from the oil fields of Oklahoma to tide
water at the Gulf. He said the bill was
in the interest OF the Standard Oil Com
.pany. The Senate not only accepted the
challenge, but passed the measure with
only the vote of the Ozark Senator in
opposition.
In the course of his speech. Senator
Davis took occasion 10 cOnSign John d.
Rockefeller to a certain place, and
charged that Senator owen, of Okla
homa, was connected with STANDARD Oil
This charge the Senator from Oklahoma
Indignantly denied. and there resulted
between the two statesmen a bitter per-
sonal colloquy.
Charging that the bill before the Senate.
which was urged for passage by Senator
Owen, is in the interest Of the Prairie
ON Company, a branch of Standard Oil,
Senator Davis said:
We don't want Standard Oil in Arkan-
sas. The only place l would consent for
the construction of a pipe line to carry
the oil and gas of the Standard OF Com
pany would be straight from here TO
hades. I would Ike to have John D.
Rockefeller, the oldest trust magnate OF
them all, there to receive it. Let it sweep
around him; let its flames engulf him. be-
cause sooner or later that result viii hap
pen"
While Senator JEFF Davis was delivering
his helfire and birthstone speech he was
dancing up and down the middle aisle of
the Senate. and his voice. which rivalled
steam calliope. brought everybody from
the corridors. Senator Hale, Of Maine. got
half way in the center door, saw who was
speaking, smiled, turned around and
walked right out again. He was the ex-
| ception. Most everybody else fingered TO
see the fun.
Turning TO Senator Owen. the Senator
from Arkansas said he had been informed
that the Senator from Oklahoma has
some business connections with the
Prairie Gas and Oil Company, a subsl-
diary concern Of Standard Oil.
Pale with anger. Senator Owen re-
torted: The impudent statement Of the
! Senator from Arkansas Is without founda-
ton"
MY advice is that way" was the an
swer Of Senator Davis, who added: MY
information may be incorrect. Indeed
he sympathizes with them, he acts like
he is interested. and, by jinks, / believe
he is interested"
1T Is immaterial to me- said Senator
Owen, what the opinion Of the Senator
| from Arkansas is concerning the Sena-
tor from Oklahoma The exhibition he IS
making of himself here justifes the state
ment that any opinion by the Senator
from Arkansas is absolutely worthless. "
''Ah. Mr.. President" said Senator Davis
in disdain, my opinion may be worth
less. but it does not bear the taint OF
oil. Petroleum stinks 20 me. It smells
bad, mighty bad. 1t can never be charged
against me that have made an exhibi-
tion in favor CT Standard OIL"

Hope that Association Can Accom-
ingtOn-Other Women Speak-Plans
to Be Made Next Wednesday.

As a result OF q meeting in the District
Woman's Suffrage Association building,
1923 II street northwest. last night. Wash
ington will probably have an organization
through which women Of the city may
voice and carry out their civic improve
ment ideas.
An inspiring address by Or. Elnora c.
Folkmar, first president of the Better
Milwaukee Association, OF which put
Milwaukee on the children's playground
map. expressed the hope that similar
association could accomplish equally de-
sirable results in Washington. They
agreed to meet next Wednesday evening
at the home OF Dr. Clara W MacNaugh-
ton, where they viii consider the forma-
ton of a Washington woman's civic as
ISOLATION. and of a branch association
TO comprise women OF the Columbia
Heights.
Favored by Men,
The meeting OF last night did not con-
slider the alternative of a protest, for It
concurred in what Mrs. Helen o. TindalI,
president OF the Woman's District Suf-
frage Association, said. that il women
were 10 apply for memberships In civic
organizations the men would doubtless
be glad TO have their assistance. Mrs.
FoIkmar's address, however, turned the
ambition of women in the direction Of
organizing on a plan to give women ex-
elusive active memberships in an organ
ization Of their own.
Mrs. FOikmar related with clear detail
the process by which Milwaukee women
Of energy made themselves a valuable
factor In Milwaukee's civic life. She de-
scribed the practicable form of their
organization. not reserving to il exclusive
credit. however, for the work accom-
plished. The plan comprises. she ex-
planned, a central organization of repre-
sentative women who will work. These
women will be those. If possible, who
are identified with other organizations of
women, whom they can represent In the
central organization.
There will be an advisory board Of men
holding honorary memberships. The men
will be chosen from various influential
civic organizations of the city, so they
may suggest methods and means which
would be cooperative between the asso-
Citations. They will also contribute their
business and professional experience.

Mrs. DR.. MacNaughton urged reform
in building homes. She deprecated the
tendency to build high apartment houses,
which necessitate stair-climbing and de-
stroy home life. and the construction of
blocks of houses in the suburbs, where
there is plenty of room to build without
