MACE USED TO STOP
FIGHT IN THE HOUSE
Representatives Mondell and
Wickersham Exchange
the Lie"

The mace, that emblem of authority
that seldom has to he invoked in tho
House, is again back I'm its place t.
the right of the Speakers table today
while Representative MondelI of Wyom-
ing, and Delegate Wlckersham,> of
Alaska, who fought a bloodless battle
on the floor late yesterday, gaze under
standingly in its direction.
Until Mr.. Mondell and Mr.. Wicker
sham called one another liar" during
a debate on the conservation of Alaskan
coal lands, the mace had not been
called into play since Representative
John Wesley Gaines of Tennessee re-
fused to take his seat when ordered 10
do so by the Speaker. about two years
ago.
Although the short and harmless en-
counter between the warning members
yesterday was over before the sergeant
alarms could reach their, seats with
the mace, he grabbed it nevertheless,
and held it menacingly over the heads
of Mondell and Wickersham while they
were cooling off"
Score of PeacemakerS.
1t required about a score of members
to keen the combatants apart. The de-
bate had been proceeding in desultory
fashion over the Monden bill for the
leasing of coal lands in Alaska. MI.
MondeIl had said that anly one entry
had gone to patent. Mr.. WiCkersham
insisted that final receipt issued by the
Interior Department was equivalent TO
title:
But the final receipt is issued in ey-
- gftpr
reading a letter from the Land Office
that was somewhat contradictory L"
the department's attitude as outlined by
Mr., Mondell. ''and this is equivalent,
under a decision of the Supreme Court
to a patent for title"
He is a liar, that is all said Mr..
Nondell in a tone so loud that MT
Nickersham overheard it,
''YOu are d liar if you say that, re-
sDonded Wickersham iunp0S across
the aisle toward MondelI. and making

and Representative POlndcNter attempt
ed 70 pull away Mr.. Fosters hands,
which brought on q sharp Interchange
between these gentlemen that does not
appear in the Record today.
Representative Nick Longw0rth held
the Wyoming belligerent by the shoul-
der and such bulky forms as those Of
Representative Dwight of New York
and SissOn of Mississippi got between
the fighters, who were struggling to get
at one another.
After the mace had been brought
both members apOlOgized to the House,
Mr. Mondell qualifying his statement by
saying that he mad not used the word
liar in debate, but that he was talking
from his seat to a member sitting near.
Loss Of temper" was declared to be
the cause for the unparliamentary Ian
guage and the near fight that followed.
The mae-a long polelike affair with
a big silver American eagle on its end
