MISS HELEN TAFT
NAY Be Thirteenth
WHITE HOUSE BRIDE

Washington, Feb. 2l-Win Hell.
en- Taft capture the honor Of being
the thirteenth white house bride
from tho Misses Wilson? is the
question that Is agitating Wash
ington society.
There are strons rumors ahoat
that Miss Taft will marry DIR.
Cary Grayson. to whom her
friends say she is engaged, before
she leaves the white house. 1t Is
a significant fact that the rumor
Of Miss Taft's engagement to DR..
Grayson has never hecn COM
mented on or denied by the pres
idential family. The rumor Of
an impending marriage meets
with the same silence and So
ciety is on the qui vive for a sur.
prise white house wedding party.
1t it occurs it is very probable
that it will be restricted to only
a few friends Of both families

LECTURES
BEFORE DRAMA LEAGUE
Poet, E.sayist, and Playwright Talks
on Peoples Leisure and the
Civic Theater."

The Peoples Leisure and the CIVIC
Theater," was the subject Of a lecture
delivered last night by Percy Mackaye,
poet. dramatist, and essayist. at meet
ing of the Washington Central Of the
Drama League held in the Public LII
brary.
Mr. Makaye deplored the commercial
ism of the amusement of this country.
There Is no place." said Mr.. Mackaye,
.where the common people of this coun-
try can find amusement without paying
for it. II is against the law for them
to play the compositions of the greatest
masters in the public parks, yet there
is no restrictions against their paying
for demoralizing amusements in some OF
the theaters and moving picture places
in the country.
"The time has not yet arrived in this
country when the people are ready to
appreciate all that 1t Is meant by a civic
theater. They will have to be educated
up to It gradually. 1 consider the play
ground systems in this country first
step. This will gradually lead up to
greater things and the time will come
when there will be erected civic theaters
far overshadowing the commercial
amusement houses In the country"
Washington up to the present has
seen one of Mr.. Mackaye's plays. ANTI
Matrimony," the brilliant satire in which
Henrietta Crosman made such a hit
about two years ago. Mr.. Mackaye's
other plays which have proven so sue
cessful are ''The Scarecrow," Master"

The Department OF Justice has likewise

reports, yet it is fact that practically
every revolution in Latin America has
been heralded by just such reports as
are now current with regard to Castro

The statement made by Castro that he

naval DEBATE
OCCUPIES HOUSE
Day Spent in Making Arsu-
ments For or Against
Two Battleships.
FEW MEMBERS PRESENT
Big Navy Men Predict Bills Passage.
Opponents Intend Filibusterins
Against Measure.

All yesterday the House of Repre-
sentatiyes listened to the fulminations
of the big-navy men and the econo-
mfsts. Turn and turn about the sup
porters and the detractors of the ad-
ministration's naval programme dis
cussed in unlimited general debate the
desirability and the undesirability of
following the Naval Committees re-
port in favor of two battleships
Representative Witherspoon Of Mis-
issippi. leader of the small-aavy advo-
Gates I'm the Committee on Naval Af-
fairs. addressed the House for nearly
two hours. He acknowledged that he
was new to the Naval Committee. but
had been there long enough to develop
an interest in favor of economical ad-
ministration. He furnished the House
with half -hourlong description or
his own views of how a naval battle
should be fought.
Representative Hobson of Alabama,
in support of the provision for two
battleehips, made his annual prophecy
of the imminent danger of war with
some major power. and supported the
contention of the majority of the COM
mittee for the inclusion in the bill of
the paragraph providing two new bat
tleships to be laid down in 1914.
Questioned by the economy Democrats
as TO the actual needs of the navy, Mr.,
hODsOn tne HOUSE tHe hctu vi
the navy was TO keep abreast in the con-
struction of battleships with the COM
bined building programme of Germany
and Japan. Such a programme for the
United States. the speaker insisted, would
require an appropriation for six battle
ships and and four. or at least two,
dreadnought cruisers Immediately.
Following the speeches of Mr.. Wither-
spoon and Mr.. Hobson, Representative
Dies of Texas spoke in favor of restrict
ing the number of battleships to one or
none, and Representative Loud of Mich
igan supported the majority contention
for two dreadnoughts.
While Mr.. Loud was speaking the at
tendance had dwndled until on a demand
for counting of quorum by Represent
ative Saunders it was disclosed that there
were but forty-eight members in the
hall of the House. a demand for a call
of the House and possible all-night ses-
sion was averted by an agreement to de-
vote two hours of Monday to general de-
bate, whereupon the House will resolve
itself into Committee of the Whole for
the consideration of the measure para
graph by paragraph. Gauging the attitude
of the House by the outward expressions
of approval following the various speeches
II would seem TO the Naval Committee
men that the two battleship principle
would win by a majority of from twenty
five to forty in the final counting of noses.
The small-navy Democrats have made up
their minds to a finish fight, and are
promising a consistent and continuous |
flibuster Monday and thereafter until the |
bill Is passed or defeated. |
