Fight to Be Made in Caucus
on Resolution to Gag"
House Members.
UNDERWOOD TO WIN
Insurgents Are Too Weak to
Check Plan to Prevent
New Legislation.
CNational News Association,

WASHINGTON. May 31-Majority
leader Underwood's control of the
house will be put to a test Monday in
the Democratic caucus, according to
house Democrats today. They de-
clared that while Underwood was able
to apply the gag" when the tariff bill
was being put through, it was not at
all certain he would be able to do so
this time. Underwood, it is under
stood, proposes to have the caucus
adopt a resolution binding all Demo
cratic members to refrain from enact
ing any legislation during the present
session. except a brief presentation
which Underwood will specify.
The Underwood resolution, if adopt
ed, it was said, would be lid on all
activities of the house for the remand
er of the session, except committee
work, and would put even a strong
damper in that.
The resolution will set forth that
there be no legislation except the final
enactment of a tariff bill into law,
passage of banking and currency bill
and the passage of deficiency appro-
priation bill, estimates for which will
be submitted to congress at an early
date.
The resolution will provide that no
committee other than the three COM
mittees acting on these measures
shall have the power to. report a bill
to the house, and also will provide for
a suspension of the house rule which
regulates motions to discharge COM
mittees and is designed to drag out of
committee legislation to which the
committee has applied the "chloro-
form process
If the Underwood resolution is
adopted, all kinds of private bills. in
which many new members are inter
ested, will be barred from considera.
tion, and the members can either stay
at the capital and await developments
or they can go home 1t is stated the
resolution will probably be adopted
after hard fight.

LITTLE CONTENTION

Almost fifty stalls were rented to-
day for the season at the Sixth street
market house by Marketmaster John
Taylor. Today was the day set aside
some time ago by council as the time
to lease the market stalls for the
year. The plan of first come, first

ing out the stalls but this was found
unsatisfactory as there was conten.
tion between the trucksters as to VINO
was to receive the preference of Ger.
tain stalls.
Market has been maintained during
the winter between the hours of one
o'clock in the afternoon and nine
o'clock at night. There were few
dealers. however, and the patronage
during the winter months was small.
Today was the first day that the mar
ket resumed its usual summer appear
ance. During the summer season, the
market starts at o'clock in the morn
ing and continues until late at night.

The East Main Street market at
Seventeenth and Main streets will be
open within TWO or three weeks. Ac-
cording to Marketmaster Taylor, only
garden vegetables and fruit are sold at
this market and until these become
plentiful as the season advances, very
few trucksters will stake their wagons
there.
This market will be held on Tues
day. Thursday and Saturday. The
morning and by ordinance must be ov-
er by 8 o'clock in the morning.

The patronage at the Sixth street
market was excellent today and a
great variety of products was sold.
Dealers in meat, fish. poultry, grocer

Chairman Williams An
nounces That Committee
Favors Manufacturer For
New School Trustee.
SAYS WOULD BOOM
VOCATIONAL WORK
Councilmen Will Be Sound
ed, However, Before Nomi-
nation Is Made-Salary In
creases Provided.

Oscar Williams, chairman of the
council committee on schools, to
day announced. that the committee
would report Monday night in favor
of raising the salaries of the members
of the school board, in order that they
could pay for their heavy bonds. He
further stated the committee, which
also includes Councilmen Englebert
and Bartel would probably recommend
the election of well-known manufac-
turer as a member of the school board
to succeed DR.. NJ. F. Johnston, presi-
dent of the organization, whose term
expires next August.
Williams declined to make public
the name of the candidate the commit.
tee favors for member of the
board, but it was reported today
he is George Seidel of the Pilot Motor
Car Company and the Seidel Buggy
Company.
| With the introduction of vocational
training in the local pubic schools,
the committee thought that some man
ufacturer should be placed on the
school board to look after that feature
of school work." Williams stated.
"The candidate the committee has in
mind will be acceptable to every
body.
To Consult Other Members.
Councilman Williams also stated
that he intends to consult with the
various members of council before the
committees candidate was presented to
council, for the purpose of ascertain
ing what Chance there is for his elec-
ton,
''If l find that there is chance of
him being defeated. the committee will
not nominate him, but believe he will
meet with the favor of all the
councilmen, so the prospects for his
nomination next Monday night are
good" Williams added.
Dr. Johnston is a candidate for re-
election and his friends are confident
that he will be retained on the board.
II will not state who | intend to vote
for" said Councilman Kaufman, but
l can see no reason why any change
in the membership of the school board
should be made"
Councilman Vessel has also stated
that he believes it would be mistake
to dispense with the services of DR..
Johnston, and the same view has been
expressed by Councilman Burdsell
The report on salaries for members of
the school board which the school COM
mittee will submit Monday night, pro-
vides $3.50 a year for the president
and secretary, and $500 a year for the
treasurer. Under present salaries. 800
a year for each member, the treasurer
could not pay the premium on his
$275, 900 bond for the ensuing year,
and the president and secretary each
would have but 50 left of their salaries
after they had paid the premiums on
their bonds.
1t is understood that council will
pass the ordinance increasing the
school trustees salaries without de-
bate.

KENNEPOHL OPPOSED
TO BUILDING CODE
Believes Laborer Will Be Un

Proposed Code.

Because he believes that the pro-

fore city council, will keep working
men from building homes in the city,
B. A Kennepohl, president of the
board of public works, will make an
effort to block the passage of the bill
at council meeting next Monday night.
Other city Officials and some council
men are also opposed TO the bill, it is
said.
Mr.. kennepohl declares that there
should be more houses built in this
city which would rent from SO to ST.
per month. Houses which would rent
for this amount, he says, could not be
constructed under the proposed build
ing code.
