To Abolish the
 Inaugural Ball
SECRETARY FISHER MAKES
 CONTAMINATION
IS TIME FOR CHANGE
Believes 1t Would Be Better For Con-
 sress to Make s1oo,ooo Appropriation
 Than Raise Money by Sale of Tickets

Washington, Jan. 14.-President- elect Wilson's inauguration in the opin- ion of Secretary of the Interior Fisher should be celebrated by a popular re- ceptfon in the rotunda of the national capitol" to which there should be nc charge whatever for admission" in stead of by an inauguration ball, as in the past, with accompanying concert and supper in the pension building, to which admission is charged. MT. Fish CT expressed this view today in a let ter to Senator Southerland and Rep resentative Sheppard, chairmen re- committees on public buildings and grounds
 Time for Change.
 'fThe time has arrived" says the sec retary, for making a fundamental change in the method of celebrating the inauguration of the president of the United States. He should be in augurated in manner fitting the dig nifty and importance of the occasion. It should not be left to the voluntary action of public spirited citizens. I most respectfully and earnestly sug- gest that congress itself should take charge of the inauguration celebration and make the necessary appropriation therefor.
 Favors $f0o,ooo Appropriation.
 'tAn appropriation of $1000,0o would involve far less loss to tTne taxpayers
 
 and indirectly in the existing prac- ttce" He points out in this connec- tion that the inconvenience to the pen sion bureau and also to the Indian bureau, which since the previous in auguration has been moved into the pension building, would result in most disastrous effects upon the admins tration of both bureaus.''
 $95,8 1928 at Taft inauguration.
 To meet the expenses of inaugura- tion balls. a charge of $5 has been made for tickets and 50 cents to each of the subsequent concerts, with extra charges for the supper, seats in the gfandstand, and so on, On the oeca- sion of President Taft's inauguration a guarantee fund of $S6,720 was raised and the receipts were $95.S23, leaving 8 considerable surplus.

adding one senator. Nothing could be done at this time. so he suggested ad- journment, which was taken
 Republicans Oppose Resolution.
 While the debate was going on MT Thoms wore 8 broad smile. as the dis agreement had become a republican one. Democrats later shook hands with each other on the supposition that they had won point on the republi- cans. Many republicans declared that they would object to the resolution if it went beyond what was indicated on the ground that the party had so far stood together on every matter and no ground would be surrendered under cover of the report of the conference.
 No other business was done during the day. It was currently reported that the governor intended to send in the name of a highway commissioner, but the democrats said this could not be so, as the governor knew it was useless to send in name with no committee on executive nominations to receive it.
 Mileage Question Causes Worry.
 The mileage question worried many ID mernbers. Comptroller Dunn has asked President 0feIlen to give the state suf- fcient mileage for the members to use on session days and such days as there are committee hearings in exchange for the g cents per mile round trip allowed by the constitution. President Afe1Ien Mas referred the matter to Vice President Campbell. It is said that records show that such a transaction was made somewhere about 1883. Members also think they can solve the problem by repeating a statute which prohibits the acceptance of passes by legislators or by providing for pur- chase of mileage in a lump from the expense fund. As soon as the organization is completed the nile- age question will be brought up.
