WOULD CONTROL WEATHER.
Sir Oliver Ledge Suggests Rain Gar
be Made to Order.

London, Jan. 24.--Sir Oliver Lodge
the distinguished physicist and prln-
cipal of Birmingham University, in
an addres before the Institute OF
Electrical Engineers Thursday night
suggested the possibility of obtain
ing some measure of control over the
weather.
If clearing weather, he said, was
due to electricity, it might be lmag
ined that man could acquire some
control over the electrification Of the
atmosphere.
# it was desired to produce rain
why not send up kite to reach the
clouds? He believed that if enough
electricity were discharged into the
clouds the drops would behave there
as they did in the laboratory; they
would coalesce and, ONCE that hae
happened, the process might the re
reated and cause shower.
When rain was wanted, the lecture
said, negative electricity should b'
sent up, and if fine weather wa
wanted, positive electricity.

BYRD LIQUOR LAW UPHELD.
Unlawful Even to Give Ardent Splr'
its to Man Who is Drunk in
Your Home.

Richmond, Jan. 24.-By refusing a
writ of error in the case of James
Crawford against the Commonwealth,
the State Supreme Court yesterday
upheld the construction placed upor
the Byrd law by the Circuit Court
Of Rockingham county, which was
that it is unlawful to give or furnish
an intoxicated man with ardent spir-
its. Crawford was fined $50 by a
jury ut the September term of the
Circuit Court Of Rockingham coun-
" for giving a glass of wine to Ber'
nard McDaniels in his own home
while the latter was under the lnflu'
ence of liquor.
The Supreme Court also decided
that a State license is not to be re-
Quired for the operation of billar'c
and pool tables in clubs, where tn,
tables are for use of members only
a writ of error was refused in ths
case of the Commonwealth agains
the ElEs' Home, Inc, appealed from
the Corporation Court of Roanoke
The commissioner of revenue had
suit brought against the Biks' Hom
for failure to secure State llcens
for the billiard and poolroom opera
ted in the home. The contention wa
made by the club that the tables wer
not operated for revenue, but solel
for the recreation of the members
and that the fee charged for usin!
then, was levied only to cover tn
cost Of upkeep.

STRIKE &DUT CLAUSE.
Delegate Jordan Offers Substitute
Bill in Line With Views Expressed
BY Governor Elect

Richmond, Va, Jan. 24.-Two
hours of debate yesterday in the
House of Delegates over the question
Of taxation on deposits in bank, while
it reached no final action, served to
show wide difference Of opinion on
the part of the members. ITne night
was renewed to'ay when the result
of conferences held last night with
the hope of satisfactory coppro-
mise were outlined. The Hcase re-
fused to take up out of its order the
bill already passed by the Senate seq
regatin% the tax to the State and pro-
Ribitins taxation Of bank deposits
by the counties and cities, and fixing
a l0-cent rate for State taxation
Later, the House bill, similar in It's
general provisions, was reached on
the calendar. Realizing that there
was little chance of securing three
fourths vote for the bill at that rate
IT'S patron, Mr.. Weaver, moved t,
strike out the emergency clause,
which motion was adopted. A motion
to reconsider this action, with a view
of compromising on higher rate OF
tax, was pending when the House
! adjourned.
Delegate Jordan ffered as SUBJ
stitute the bill supported by Cover
nor elect Henry C Stuart, proposing
for segregation Of the tax to the
State, for a fixed rate of % cents
on 500, for collection through the
banks, each bank paying on the total
of its deposits, less outstanding
checks, and charging the tax pro-rata
to each depositor, thus insuring TO
the state the absolute collection.
This phase Of the bill followed lines
laid down in the new Federal in
coae tax law.
The Echols bill, providing for the
segregation of tax nbank Eeposits
TO the State and fixing the rate at 10
cents on 500, came up on the calen-
tlar as Senate bill No. /, on its sec
ond reading.
Chairman Weaver, of the House
Finance Committee, defended the bill
as being in many respects Identical
with the measure already reported by
his committee after memorable
hearing in which both Governor Mann
and Governor-Elect Stuart particl-
pated
TIE vote was taken on Mr.. Weav-
er's motion to dispense with the fur
ther reading of the bill. The vote
stood ayes, 50; noes, 35, and not be-
ing two-thir,s vote, it vas de-
clared rejected
The House having refused to suS-
pend the rules, the bill waS passed
to its third reading. and cane up in
the form in which it passed the sen
ate as the first bill on the calendar
today

THE HINDU MENACE.
Secretary Wilson Recommends Bar
ring CT Immigrants of Race
From Country.


Washington, Jan. 24.-Secretary
Wilson, of the Department OF Labor,
suggested to Congress that the doors
Of the United States be c,osed to the
Hindu laborer.
Injury to labor con ftions on the
Pacific coast through an already un-
accountable influx CT Hindus, and
possible extension to the Southern
states, were the reasons given by
Mr.. Wilson for urging their lmmedl-
ate exclusion.
The Secretary's views were ex-
pressed in a letter to Speaker Clark
in response ito hi request from Char
man Burnett, of the House lmmi-
grafton Comnittee, for information
on pending bills. While the Secrc-
tary cid not discuss with President
Wilson the questions brought up IN a
letter, he wrote, he said, after COM
missioner General Caminettl OF tne
Immigration Bureau. had consulted
John Bassett Moore and learned tina.

recommendation were carried ouI.
The Secretary suggested that the
"Asiatic Iaborero be defined as IN
cluding all aliens east Of certain

immigration already is regulated ny

tween the Unitel States and the
Governments in the Far East.

that a physical test. such as Is re-
ouired from recruits to the United

Physically defective aliens from
Persia, Turkistan, Afghanistan, 81
am AZ other Asiatic countries could
thereby be prevented from entering
into competition with American ia,

also that perhaps all immigrants in
