PLANS TO FACILITATE
APPROPRIATION BILLS
SENATOR GOING OFFERS. SUC-
GESTION TO HASTEN THEIR
PASSAGE.

Little Rock, Dec. 2O.-State Sena-
tor l.. Clyde Going has a rather novel
plan for the handling of appropri-
alton measures in the legislature.
He advocates the newly elected gov
ernor calling ten members of the new
ly elected house and five members Of
the senate to meet with him on the
first day Of December preceding leg
islative session. This board of Is
would then constitute a finance COM
mittee to consider all appropriations,
go over the state institutions and pass
upon all recommendations from their
heads. These matters would then be
threshed out and bills covering all ap
preparations drawn for introduction
on the first day of the legislative ses-
sion. With a provision that all bills
governing appropriations be passed
in the first 80 days, Senator Going in
sists that the general assembly would
have a sufficient amount of time for
all other business in the second thir-
ty days.
Col. T. C. NcRae, candidate for
governor, says that there will be no
question of time if he is permitted to
draw the rules for the assembly, but
rule making is one of the constitution
al rights of that body and he would
not interfere unless invited to do So
Earle w. Hodges, another candidate
for governor, likewise advocates the
adoption of all appropriation meas
ures in the first thirty days OF the
session.

DIR. THOMAS THE
man FOR THE JOB

Rev. DR.. James Thomas has been
relieved of all pastoral work, and at
the unanimous request of the two
conferences of the state, appointed to
continue his great wor kas education
al commissioner for Hendrix College.
The stupendous task he has undertake
en- is to raise an addition of 100000
to the endowment and building fund.
He has already secured a donation
of 100000 from the Rockefeller
Foundation, contingent upon raising
100000 from other sources. To this
great achievement DR.. Thomas will
devote his whole time and superior
energies. If there is a man in the
state who can do it DR.. Thomas is the
man. But the raising of this sum in
such a cause ought not to be a thing
insurmountable. There is no way in
which our men and women Of wealth
can better invest a portion of the
money that has come to them through
the benefcence of kind providence
than in developing great men and
women from among our boys and
girls by the establishment of great
educational institutions. Carnegie has
given more than $350,O00,O0O to pub
lie benefactions. Rockefeller has
probably given more. There is more
than mere sentiment in Carnegie's
theory that "it is crime to die
rich. Daily Texarkanian.

Little Rock, Dec. 17.-Just when it
appeared that John H. Page was to
have smooth sailing for the re-nomi-
nation as agricultural commissioner,
since the withdrawal of w. E. Green
and Sam NJ. Sampson, another prob
able entrant appears. J. E. Matthews
of Corning, sheriff of Clay county
from 1910 to 1914, has been in the
city this week and has announced to
his friends that he is seriously con-
sidering becoming a candidate. Should
he decide to run, which seems prob
able, he will make his formal an

AUSTRIAN BREAK
TO CONE SOON
DISAVOWAL REFUSE
OF VIENNA'S REPLY
ABOUT ANCONA DISAPPO1NT-
ING TO WASHINGTON.

Washington, Dec. 17.-Austria' S re-
ply to Secretary Lansing's note on
the Ancona is regarded, on the basis
of the unofficial reports received from
London and Amsterdam, as wholly
unsatisfactory, unacceptable, and dis
appointing to the United States.
Diplomatic relations of the two coun-
tries may safely be described as
standing at the breaking point.
President Wilson and Secretary
Lansing are reserving comment until
they have the official translation and
text at hand, but it is stated authorl-
tatively that the United States will
enter into no exchange of opinions as
the Vienna foreign Office is represent
cd as suggesting and absolutely will
decline to discuss the facts of the tor
pedoing and Smelling of the Ancona
by an Austrian submarine with loss
of American lives.
No official word had reached the
state department that the Austrian
reply had been delivered to American
Ambassador Penfeld, but the news
dispatches containing excerpts were
taken in official quarters as sufficient
evidence that the rejoinder is on its
way to Washington.
From such part Of the unofhclai
text as is contained in the news DIS
patches officials considered the reply
vague in many respects but they were
not prepared to decide whether that
wa scaused by the translation.
The suggestion for an exchange OF
opinions, the virtual request for bill
of particulars of the American COM
plant against the action OF the sub
marine commander and the proposal
for q discussion of the facts, was
clearly set forth, however, in the I'M
official text and officials of the state
department., who have knowledge OF
its policy in the crisis unhesitatangiy
declared that all would be refused. 1t
was made clear that the United States
does not propose to enter into diplo-
matte discussion which would have
possibilities of being prolonged almost
indefinitely.
The outline of the reply was dlsap-
pointing because some American otil-
Gals had been led to believe by pre-
dictions from Germanic quarters that
it would be favorable, or at least
would propose something which the
United States could accept.
AS Secretary Lansing based the
in his note upon the
official statement of the American ad-
miralty itself, American officials are
at loss to understand where there
is much room for discussion or dis
pute of facts.
News from Vienna recently that
the submarine which sunk the Ancona
was missing led some officials to be-
l;eve that a new element had been IN
troduced into the dispute which had
promise of carrying some weight.
That point, however, seems to nave
been disregarded in Austria's answer
