MURRAY'S PLEA FOR MILEAGE

Where do members of congress
who come to Washington without their
families spend their time at night?"
This question was discussed In
the house the other day by Alfalfa
Bill Murray of Oklahoma in connec-
ton with the mileage provision of
the conference report on the legisla-
tive bill Alfalfa Bill insisted that 1t
was the duty OF all members to bring
their families to Washington with
them, and he insisted that that was
why 1t was desirable to make liber.
al allowance for mileage.
The Oklahoma statesman declared
that in the absence OF mans family
time was likely to hang heavily on
his hands and he would do more
roaming around at night than was
good for him. Alfalfa Bill wanted
all members to have their families
with them constantly throughout the
sessions in order, that they might not
grow lonesome.

EMILIANO zAPATA, THE REBEL

Emiliano Zapata is the leader of
the constitutionalist forces In south
ern Mexico. In describing this man,
Francisco Urquidi. constitutionalist
agent, the other day said:
''Zapata is a peon of Morelos. He
comes from state in which the land
is held in fee simple by less than two
dozen landlords. He worked out in
the fields with fellow poems. He is
an uneducated man, because he had
no opportunity to get learning. He
Ncan read and write, but he learned to
do these after he was twenty-one
years old. He is now thirty-eight
years old and is wiry. slim-built man
slightly under six feet in height He
is half-breed, but the Indian blood
does not show as strong in him as
1t does In many of his followers. He
is light-complexioned, energetic, and
is dreamer in that he sees things as
they might be and is not contented
with them as they are.
