HOT WORDS
HOUSE OVER
POSTAL BILL
MOON OF TENNESSEE AND HEF-
LIN OF ALABAMA COME NEAR
BLOWS IN A HEATED DEBATE
MOON WITHDREW OFFENSIVE.

Wa Historical Society,", y After two
days of hot u,,. ID ed
today in exchange of invIra,.y.- to
personal combat between Representa-
tives Heflin of Alabama, and Moon of
Tennessee, the house adopted special
rule to consider legislation for re
forms demanded by the post office de-
partment in connection with the an
ual postal appropriation bill A de-
lection of Democrats from the lead
ers yesterday defeated a similar rule,
which provided for consideration of
amendments decreasing postmasters
salaries, the elimination of assistant
postmasters, experimental substitution
of contract service for the rural car
riers, changes in the compensation
paid railroads for carrying the mails,
and other reorganization plans for the
department.
The Daily Ardmoreite. [volume] (Ardmore, Okla.) 1893-current, 1914-12-21

The rule was passed late today with
the provisions for cutting postmasters'
salaries, abolishing assistant postmas-
ters, and the hural service substitu-
ton scheme eliminated.
A speech by Representative Moon,
following the defeat of the original
rule in which he intimated that some
railroad influence" had operated to
shift democratic votes, caused bitter
debate today. Representative Heflin
of Alabama, after half an hour of ar
gunent with Mr.. Moon, denounced his
statement as false and untrue" Re
preventative Moon challeged him to
make the same comment off the floor
of the house and representative Hef-
lin expressed his willingness to do so
Both members were advancing toward
each other in a threatening manner
when half a dozen members stepped
in between them.
The Daily Ardmoreite. [volume] (Ardmore, Okla.) 1893-current, 1914-12-21
Mann Renews Controversy

Republican Leader Mann, who had
led the first on the original rule, re.
newed the controversy in concluding
debate on the revised measure
The charge has been made on this
floor" he said, that the influence OF
railroad interests Has been felt in this
house. / believe it is the duty of the
house, If the charge is not true, to
repudate the charge and repudiate
the man who made it. If 1t is true,
then the house owes it to itself to in
yestigate the charge and punish the
men whose votes have been changed
by railroad influence"
A little later Representative Moon
in a brief speech disclaimcd any in
tention to reflect upon the honor or
integrity of any member of the house -
He said that his speech was made "in
the heat of debate" and may have
been little to rough" He offered to
withdraw any"offensive language" he
might have used.
