ter who jumps from the cliff to es-
cape a negro ravisher in THE Birth Of
Nation" was supported by a strong
company. Leading in her support was
Robert Harron, who appeared az Tod
Stoneman in the Ku-Klux Khan story.
One Of the most interesting parts OF
the picture was the antics Of the ami
mails shown in the animal and bird
store
In addition 70 the principal offering
the interesting process of making OF
steel rails was shown, together with an
animated cartoon.

Hersch Is touring the county today as

One Of the most encouraging pieces
Of soliciting in the county reported was
the successful campaign led by Howard
Eckles IN Vienna township. It's ap-
portionment was $3.50. and the commit
tee raised 1855, and all Of It in cash.

NO FINAL DECISION ON
 PRESIDENTS AUTHORITY
THERE WILL PROBABLY BE NO ANNOUNCEMENT UNTIL AFT ER CABINET MEETING
 FRIDAY.

Washington. March There was
 no final decision today on whether
 President Wilson has the authority tc arm American merchantmen for defense against German submarines
 without action by congress. Author-
 itatiye intimations were given that
 the president was seeking a way to
 take the step on his own responsibil- ity, but would act only after moat mature deliberations
 The president conferred with Secre-
 taries Lansing and Daniels at their
 offices, but the usual Tuesday cab
 inet meeting was cancelled and in
 some quarters it was believed there
 N ould be no announcement on the question until after the cabinet meet
 ing Friday
 The situation in the seua.e tyas
 carefully canyassed by administration
 representatives for the admitted req
 son that the president would rather act under the express authority Of congress if possible
 Some administration officials after careful study of the old law Of iS1S, cited in the senate as preventing the ermng Of merchantmen against sub marines. were stronger than ever in heir belief that the act has no ap rlicaton to the present situation. The statute was passed specifically tG allow American merchantmen Co fight pirates and privateers and these officials contended that the cNemp tion in this connection of public armed vessel of nation in amity with the United States does not pre- eut a peaceful merchantmen from Ilcsisting an attack in violation of m ternational law
 , The impression grew that an extra 1 session of congress was certain and
 the time of callins il was believed tc depend almost wholly en develop ments in the senate and on the de- sion of the president cu armine merchantmen senator Lodge a'
 ampted to introduce today the armed l neutrality bill Killed Jy the iil,busters lt Vice President Marshall sustained

Washneton, March 6.--Bi.partfsan organization of the house with Champ Clark as speaker and the member ships and patronage equally divided is being discussed by democratic and republican members as a possibility if the five independent members hold up public business in the next session by attempting to dictate how the house shall be organized
 The independents thus far have declined to align themselves with either of the big parties and have held several secret caucuses. If they vote, as a unit as it now appears they may, they can delay business in tho house just as long as party lines are maintained Al best neither demo Crats nor republicans will have mere than 2l5 party members and 2lS are required to elect a speaker except Ey special agreement
 iu Ease of a deadlock many demo Tats and republicans believe it would be their patriotic duty in the face of an internationl crisis to break down party lines regardless of political for tunes The desire ot the house to keep its record clear of any charge of tying President Wilson's hands ns the senate did is expected to play big part in converting members 70 the bipartisan proposal. It is house boast that a large majority of it's membership always had stood behind the president in the many cr1ses ol the last three years
 Virtually every leader of impor- tance on either side has been sounded for his views on the bi-partisanship plan and no vigorous opponent of it az a last resort has been found Re publican Leader Mann is quoted as saving recently at a dinner to retir-
 ing Now York members Of the house that he had rather see bi-partisanship of the house than to see if controlled by q small band of 'filibusterers Discussion of bipartisan plans 10 be put forward in an emergency does not mean however, that the majority | of either party is preparing to desert | it's light for control for the house.
