JUDSON PLAN DEAD
BY DECISIVE VOTE
Called Up Just Before Ad-
journment, Heated Debate
Follows.

The Judson plan to liquidate the fund
ed. debt of the District and to inau-
gurate a system of permanent highway
improvements is dead so far as the
present session of Congress is con-
cerned.
After waiting nearly all session for
an opportunity to present it to the
House, along with other District meas
ures, Chairman Smith, of the District
Committee, called up the Judson bill
just before the adjournment of the
House last night. The House voted it
down decisively-l51 to Sc.
There was a great deal of heated de-
bate. Representatives Smith, Mann,
OlcOtt, and Madden plead for the pas
sage of the bill. The activities of Mr..
Sims of Tennessee in opposition are
mainly responsible Tor the defeat Of the
project.
Mr.. Sims objected particularly to the
permanent Improvement authorization.
about 81, 900, ,0O0. of District revenues each
year for such purposes.
Representative Madden declared that
the bill was one of the best pieces OF
legislation ever offered for the District.
Mr.. Sims declared in the outset that
he would be glad to vote for the fund
ing plan if il were separated from the
real estate feature of the bill. When
Mr.. Sims and other Democrats had con-
cluded fiery speeches, that side of the
chamber voted almost solidly against
the measure, and II was beaten. Major
Judson Engineer Commissioner. was in
the gallery and saw the bill named after
him buried under the avalanche of op-
position votes.

Opposition Stirred Against
Some of Senators Who
Supported Him.
TWO OF DEMOCRATS
ARE IN HOT WATER
Simmons and Paynter Face Trouble
AS Result of Their Vote.
Bailey's Fight.

Trouble is already brewing for some
of the members of the Senate because
of their votes in favor of the seating
of Senator Lorimer
1t is quite plain that opposition is go
ing to be stirred against a number of
the Senators who voted to allow Lori
mer to retain his seat How widespread
this opposition will be, OF course, is
not yet clearly manifested. But in the
case of two Democratic Senators, the
signs of political difficulty on account Of
their votes in behalf Of Lorlmer are
apparent. One of these Senators IS
Simmons of North Carolina and the
other is Paynter of Kentucky.
Senator Simmons, in the last minutes
before the Lorimer vote, aros" in the
Senate and explained his position. He
declared he could not, in conscience,
vote to oust Mr.. Lorimer. Previous to
that he had been informed by some of
the House members of the North Caro-
lima delegation, who have hitherto sup
ported him, that they could not sanction
= vote by him in the interest of Lorimer.
Fight of His Life.
As matter of fact. he will have the
fight Of his political life on his hands,
and his vote in the pro-LOrimer column
will be used against him. Gov. VIII
Kitchin, brother of Representative
Claude Kitchin, is already announced
as a candidate against Simmons.
Senator Paynter was member Of
the subcommittee that investigated the
Iorimer case, and he stood out for
Lorimer all along in the discussion IN
the Senate, and voted for him. Senator
Paynter is in hot water politically. rep
fesentative Ollie James is Candldate
for the Senate against him.
Mr.. James succeeded some time ago
in getting the State Democratic commit
tee to order a primary on the senator
ship. Now, he has heard that the PaYn-
ter forces are trying to get the primary
called off, and he has departed for ken
lucky TO prevent this from being done.
Paynter's opponents in Kentucky are
going to try to force him to keep busy
explaining why he supported Lorimer.
Bailey's Fight
Senator Bailey of Texas led the fight
for Lorimer on the floor. Had it not
been for Bailey, LOrimer would prob
ably have been ousted. Senator Bailey
has a fight ahead to succeed himself in
1918. How far the LOTimer matter will
be used against him has not developed,
but in view of the fact Bailey'S Texas
enemies are ever active, it is not to be
supposed they will allow this matter to
be overlooked.
OF the Senators who voted for Lori
rner the ones who are lame ducks" or
are not going TO return to the Senate
at the end of the present Congress are
Buckley, Burrows, Carter. Depew, Dick,
Flint Kean, Piles, Scott, Hale. Senator
Carter has not been defeated for re-
election in the Legislature, but is not
likely TO succeed himself. Senator Talia-
ferrO of Florida, who is beaten for re-
election, did not vote.
But while most of the "lamc ducks
voted for LOrimer, not all Of them did.
Senator Beveridge, who has been beaten
for Reelection. led the fight against
Lorimer and Senator Burkett of Ne
braska, who will not succeed himself.
voted against him.

CHICAGO, March 1.-The Chicago
