WASHINGTON. d. c.. March IA
To Texas and Arizona ROW belongs
the distinction Of having two of the
Youngest members i'm the United

Senator Henry Ashurst. the black

Morris Sheppard, of Texas, successor
OF Bailey and a man who can twist
The English language into flowers and
houtonnieres: and Luke Lea. Of Ten.
nessee. a newspaper owner and pro
gressive democratic ieader-these are
the three youngest men in the senate.
Senator Ashurst. who is SO years
old. has been in the senate since more
than a year ago. He is a sworn
enemy OF the plutoCrats and the mon
ey power" and perhaps IS the most
radical democrat in the senate. He is.
with his black sombrerO. mis- Prince
Albert coat, and his breezy Arizona
way Of putting things. one of the SEN
ate's most picturesque figures.
Senator Sheppard is we'll known in
this city through his long service as
= congressman He is 80 years old
and looks at least five years young.
er Politically he stands with the
radical wing Of the democracy.
Senator Lea. who is only "a years

senator in the city.

CLARK POINTS our
OBJECTIONS TO LAW
Pensions for Widows Might
Cause Heavy Loss to In
deserving

PHOENIX. March I3.-According TO
Probation Officer Vernon Clark.
there are many objections TO the wild
ows' pension bill. introduced early in
the present session of the Legislature
by Representative !. A. R. Irvine. Mr..
Clark contends that the bill is unnec-
essary and is so drawn that the priv
ileges extended will be greatly abused.
1t is a mistake to throw the treas
UTy open to any kind of a sentimental
claim without providing safeguards
against abuse" said Clark today
These safeguards are not provided
in the Irvine bill. and none that are
efectual can be included in a meas
ure Of tina. character.
The Irvine bill provides that any
widow with a dependent child may
be granted Sl2 a month by the sU-
perior judge Of a county, and So for
each additional child This money. Of
course, will come out Of the county
fund.
No provision is made for invesJi-
eating claims that are put in by wild
ows. They file their own Witnesses
to prove that they are in needy cir
cumstances. No protection against i'm
posture is given. and no limit is set
on the time during which a widow
may receive a pension.
The widows pension plan has been
tried in San Francisco. Milwaukee. St,
Louis. Chicago and other cities, and
never with a conspicuous success. San
Francisco has made the most thor
ough trial OF the idea When it was
first tried there. the cost Of the juve-
nile court and ali charitable work
done in behalf OF widows and orphans
was $4,000 a year; now it is $500
900 a year. The abuses OF the Ia@
have been prolific and thousands Of
dollars have been handed out to I'M
deserving persons.
There is no limit or the amount
which the county supervisors can
spend for charitable worz. The pres
ent system has its disadvantages. bu-
is better than any system such as IS
proposed in The Irvine bill, because
the supervisors have the power TO
make investigations"

uttered by Representative Jacobs as

source. The gentleman from Santa
Cruz it could be seen meant what he
said and those who know him best
have little doubt that should he de
eide he could bach It up if needs be
physically. Other members OF the
house were quick to grasp the situa-
zion and change the liue OF argument
Just before the session adjourned Mr..
Jacobs rose IN his seat and apollo
gized for the words he bad used ana
applogized fo= the argument he had

he had done so during the heat Of
