HASTENS ITS WORK
Progress by Committee on In

Use Of Pension Building for Ball
Believed to Be Assured.
SUBMISSION OF THE REQUEST
Legislative Committee to Consider
the Matter Tomorrow Afternoon.
Appointments Announced.
GUARANTEE FUND, $4,000
SUBMISSION OF THE REQUEST

| Chairman Eustis and his inaugural COM
of labor with much accomplished Prac-
tically $4,000 has been raised by the
| finance committee for the guarantee fund,
all of the subcommittee chairmen have
been appointed and many Of the snb-
committees. and the general committee
has held it's first meeting. Although a
| vast amount of work remains to be done.
the preliminary steps have been taken
rapidly, and the delay. due to the fact
that a chairman for the committee was
not named until many weeks after the
election of Wilson and Marshall, has
been made Of little moment.
The fact that the work of many of the
subcommittee has to do with the in
augural ball makes it necessary that the
| committee should know at the earliest
possible date what provision Congress
will make in regard to the use OF the
| pension office for the ball
| Chairman George f. Hamilton has
called the legislative committee to a meet
| ing tomorrow afternoon at o'clock In
the boardroom of the Union Trust Com
pany. 1t is expected that a bill will be
| drafted at that meeting for submission to
Congress. and that it will be given to the
chairmen of the Senate and House Dis
| trict committees for introduction in their
| respective houses.
Similar Action Four Years Ago.
A similar bill was passed by the Senate
soon after it's introduction by Senator
Gallinger, four years ago. and by the
!, House, after some delay, January H.
1909 The delay was brought about by
| the opposition to the use of the pension
office which developed in the House
| The subcommittee are going ahead
with their work, however, in the belief
that the use of the pension office will be
granted. They have had the assurance
of Majority Leader Underwood that he
would not oppose such plan. and that
he believed it would be approved by Con-
gress. They have had too, assurances
| from other powerful members of the
House and Senate that the measure would
go through.
