PLANNING TO HASTEN
ANTITRUST MEASURES
House Judiciary Committee Likely
to Combine Legislation in
One Bill.

An effort to conclude hearings on the
administration antitrust bills by March
IL will be made by the House judiciar!
committee, according to Chairman Clay
ton. Several democratic members of the
committee conferred with the chairman
yesterday as to the general antitrust Sill
uation and as to the proposal that tenta-
tive antitrust bills be combined into a
single measure for presentation to the
House. Some members have expressed dis
satisfaction with the progress OF the leg
islation, and am effort will he made to
hurry the administration program along.
The trade commission bill has been vir-
tually completed by the subcommittee.
but will be a subject of conference with
President Wilson and ATTORNEY General
McReynolds and committee members be-
fore it is introduced. An effort is being
made to have a unanimous report from
both the democratic and republican mem
bers of the subcommittee, with the hope
of attracting republican support in the
House.
Provisions Of the Bill.
The bill as drawn provides for a trade
commission of three at $4,000 a year
salary each, with all the powers of the
present bureau of corporations. which Du-
reau is transferred to it bodily. Unlike
the original Clayton interstate trade COM
mission bill il makes no specific refer
ence TO the commissioner of corporations
as a member of the trade commission.
The bill applies to all corporations.
Joint stock companies and corporate conf
bfnations having capital OF S5,mD.WO or
belonging to such classes of such con-
Germs as the commission may determine.
1t defines capitalization as property OF
corporations, without referring to stocks
and bonds.
To Report When Called Upon.
The commission, under the bill, would
make reports at the instance OF eithe.
house of Congress. the President or the
Department of Justice. The reports to
Congress would be made public. but the
question Of publicity of other eports. in
asmuch as they might affect pending
legislation. perplexed the committee. As
it stands this is left to the discretion Of
the commission.
The bill provides full power for the CON-
mission to make for any corporation
such adjustment of business as Will
avoid violation Of the law" This point
is still subject TO advice from the litto--
ney General. 1t also provides that while
the commission may be appointed imme-
diately. the time in which its mandatory
provisions shall become operative shall
not be until sixty or ninety days after its
enactment.

Sixty Couple Cotillion" a Joy

The Sixty Couple Cotillion at Rauschers
last night Proved one of the most de-
lightfm and gayest dancing events OF the
winter. II has always been one OF the
smartest dancing clubs Of the National
H,apital. and In the past many demure
debutantes. now wives OF distinguished
diplomats and statesmen, established their
first claim to belleship at the old Sixty. "
With the disbanding of the Bachelors
German IL also was given up. In spite
of the changes which few years make
| i'm the cosmopolitan social life Of the
Nations capital the cotillion was given
last night with the same prestige and
eclat that has always characterized the
Organization.
The large and small ballroom at
Rauscher's was charmingly decorated
with palms and smilax, and Meyer
Davis orchestra played for the dancing.
The simple cotillion figures did not in
terfere with the tangoing and one-step-
ping, as was at first feared by many OF
the modern dance devotees.
Mrs Charles Campbell. who has always
been the leading spirit In The Sixty"
was chiefly responsible for its success
full reorganization. She and Mrs. Mark
Brooke received the guests, assisted by
number of the patronesses. among whom
were Mime. Bakhmeteff. wife of the Rus
White. wife of the Chief Justice: Mrs.
Stephen B. Elkins. Mrs. Thomas F.
Walsh. and Mrs. Edward Mclean. Miss
Alice Shepard, who was also a member
of the dance committee, Is seriously i'll
at her home. and could not attend the
dance which she had done SO much TO
make successful. .-..-.
The early arrivals enjoyed general dane
ing. the cotillion proper commencing
about II o'clock. At O'Clock a seated
supper was served. after which dancing
was resumed, and the cotillion did not
break up until nearly o'clock I'm the
morning.
Mr.. Charles Campbell and Capt Mark
Brooke, L. :. A. the assistant Engineer
Commissioner Of the District led the
cotillion.
The pretty and unique German favers
were artisticaly arranged on tall screens
at one end of. the ballroom. For :he
women were graceful parasols of different
colors, green garden hats, fans satin
bonbonners, and picture frames. The
favors for the men comprised red cha

dip to their hearts content for a time
and then began eliminating, first a couple
here and then a couple there. until but
ten were dancing.
The One-step was discontinued and the

POPE Plus BECOMES
70 YEARS OLD TODAY
Flood of kilograms and Good
Wishes Are Sent to the
Vatican.

ROME, June Pope Plus y vas
seventy mine years old today.
From early yesterday until late today
a veritable flood of consratulatory let
ters and kilograms from all over the
civilized world poured into the Vatican.
Many hundreds came from missionaries
and other representatives Of the Catho-
lie Church who are in the wilds OF coun-
tries unciviliZed. The good wishes to
the Pope came from all classes of
people.
The name of every ruler and head of
every nation was among the list of mes
sages. But perhaps the messages most
highly priced and those which more
dearly touched the heart of the pontiff
were those from his relatives and the
lowly friends he had made as Giuseppe
Sarto. poor boy. where he lived at
RieSe. Italy.
Scores of visitors. iEcludiuS ligh
church dignitaries, called at the Vatican
today to pay their respects. Many car
dinals who attended the recent con-
sistory. at which thirteen new cardinals
were awarded the red hat, the insignia
Of their high office. were among the
visitors.
