HOMESTEAD BILL HELD
AS CLUB OVER SENATE

Washington, May .-.-Senator
Borah, author of the three-year
homestead bill, has served notice on
members of the senate who are try
ing to arrange an adjournment June
l5, that there will be no adjournment
until his bill is passed
The failure of the conference COM
mittee which now has charge of the
bill to reach final agreement, is laid
by Senator Borah and others to the
senate conferees, Smoot, Jones and
Newlands. who are holding out for
insertion in the law of amendments
urged by Secretary Fisher to provide
that in homesteads the entryman
shall have title only TO the surface
of his entry and that minerals and
water powers shall be reserved TO
the government
The house conferees have agreed to
accept the bill either as it passed the
house or the senate, but refuse to ac-
cept the radical conservation amend
ments which the senate conferees are
seeking to incorporate.
Borah says he fears that If there
should be an agreement to adjourn
June 3. opponents of the homestead
bill might hold it in conference until
that date and thus kill it He says
he will not submit to such tactics.

CATHOLIC BRANCHES OF
BOY SCOUTS OF AMERICA

New York, May 23-Cardinal
Farley has approved the formation
of local branches of the Boy Scouts
of America in the parishes within
his jurisdiction, and appointed Fa-
ther Hughes member of the facul-
ty OF the Cathedral College, to su-
pervise the branch that will be at
tached to the Cathedral parish.
The approval of the cardinal was
secured on condition he requested
to which the New York council con-
sented, viz:
That there be Catholic division
of the boy scouts and that all parish
branches within his jurisdiction pre-
fix the title Catholic division before
their official designation. Thus the
branch or troop in course of forma-
tiop within the Cathedral parish is
to be known as Cathedral troop, Ca
tholic division of the Boy Scouts of
America.
Each troop or branch is to be un-
der the immediate direction of the
pastor or someone designated by him.
who shall be informed of the progress
of the movement and be consulted
from time to time.

TO STOP LOVE MAKING.

Chicago, May 23.-Henry ].
Lynch, chief probation officer of the
juvenile court, in the hope of pre-
venting elopements by motorcycle,
last night addressed a plea to the
city council asking that the men,
bers legislate the rear seat from the
machine.
Mr.. Lynch is of the opinion that
many girls are persuaded to take
trips that they would not take if
their better judgment prevailed, and
he believes that, if the second seat
is removed from the motorcycle, the
lovelorn youth will be unable to take
his sweetheart to the nearest mar
riage market
