Marines Train Pigs As
Kitchen Police, Saving
For Feast and Froic

PARIS ISLAND, s. c., March
11.-Probably no cantonment in
the country is conserving more
food than IL that OF the United
States marines here. through the
raising of pigs.
The movement started some
months ago. when several "rook-
les" purchased q litter Of pigs
from a Georgia farmer. Since then
others have followed suit until
the pig has grown into promi-
nence as well as popularity
throughout the entire camp.
Besides conserving food and
furnishing the marines with
splendid feasts, the pigs consume
all table scraps and garbage, thus
saving much dIsagreeable labor.
At present the island ''ranch"
boasts of about 1000 fine young
porkers.
According to the latest reports
from France, the marines over
there are adopting pigs and train
ing them to do "kitcheA police"

The Washington times., 1918-03-17

The determination Of Democrats
and Republicans to harmonic COM
pletely against Germany while din
ing up" against each other for the
control of the next Congress was
strikingly illustrated as the House
devoted the day to "the war finance
BILL"
AS the bill was called up in the
House, it was the "Kitchin bill" or
"House. Ways and Means Committee
substitute" for the original "Mc-
Adoo BILL" as submitted in duplicate
to both House and Senate.
After the Senate Finance Com
mittee had amended the McAdoo
bill, and it had been further amend
ed before its passage in the Senate,
the House Ways and Means Com
mittee, which had been in almost
continuous executive session, adopt;
ed bill Of its own, as reported by
Mr.. Kitchin. 1t reduced the amount
of the bonded capital of the pro-
posed War Finance Corporation, or
Central Bank of the United States,
from four to two billion dollars.
Apparently also it followed the SEN
ate bill in striking out penalties of
fine and Imprisonment for failing
to obey regulations Of the Treasury
board which is to regulate the issue
! of securities of more than 500, 900
totals by new corporations, "unes-
sential" in the conduct Of the war.
This, however, is not considered
certain beyond the power of "impli-
cation and construction" The point
may be decided before or during
conference with the Senate.
In opening the debate, as chair
man of the House Ways and Means
Committee, Mr.. Kitchin said that
the bill as he had finally introduced
it had the unanimous approval Of
the committee, Democrats and Re
publicans alike. He referred to the
bill as he had first introduced it as
an Administration measure" in
which he had made no changes
whatever. AT first blush" it SEEM
ed SO unprecedented, so radical, so
revolutionary that even extreme
radicals might hesitate 70 lnoorse II.
But the more the committee had
studied and amended it, the more
they were convinced Of the wisdom
and necessity of action to meet the
emergency.
AS Mr.. Kitchin explained the en-
ergency, it was created when the
Government went out and monop-
olized the whole field Of credit" in
floating its war loans. It had out
today three and a half billions in
certificates of Indebtedness, which
must be met inside the year. Un-
der the circumstances, when public
utility plants, power plants, and
similar semi-public or other indus
tries were necessary for war pur-
poses, the Government must either
keep them going by relief direct
from the Treasury, by wholesale
Communicating, or by some new and
less dangerous method-such as
was now proposed in the bill as the
committee had amended and agreed
on it.

AMERICAN LABOR
MISSION WILL Be .
SENT TOENGLAND

NEW YORK. March 1T.--American
labor will send a mission TO carry
n message OF good will to workmen
in France and Great Britain. That
was the announcement today OF
Samuel Gompers. president Of the
American Federation of Labor.
The Washington times., 1918-03-17

On behalf Of the Republicans, this
was set forth in phrases often strik-
ingly Rooseveltian. The key note"
for Republican patriotic approval Of
the measure was sounded by Hon.
Nicholas Longworth, who In his
highest reaches often compares ia
vorably in point Of strenuous style
with his famous father-in-law.
He agreed with Chairman Ktchin
that by the exercise Of great care and
the highest intelligence, the commit
tee had produced finally q bill which
demanded the support Of the House
as an evidence Of the patriotism
which could know no party lines.
But he drew an appalling contrast
between the merits Of the new COM
mittee bill and the demerits Of the
original Administration" or Nc
Adoo' bill as thad been first pre-
sented. He referred to secrets Of a
New York money trust" as re-
vealed by the late ]. Pierpont Nor
gan and others, showing that with
out the consent Of about dozen
men, no loan Of as much as ten
millions could be fioated. This, how
ever, now seemed comparatively q
trihe after considering the money
trust" the committee had refused to
indorse, with the power Of controll-
ing It In the hands of single man.
Then he denounced "the continuous
reaching out OF the executive branch
OF this Government for more power, "
and added a denunciation OF the
%Overman bill." intended, as he sup
posed, to allow the President to re-
model our system Of Government in
any way he saw At" As proof that.
while checking what he was defining
as usurpation, the Republicans were
supporting the Administration in
everything their patriotism demand
ed, he alleged that the President
would have failed. in securing the
compulsory draft II he had relied on
Democrats for support, and that its
success became possible only when
q minority Of Administration Demo
Gratis" were reinforced BY the Re-
publicans.
Perhaps his most striking argu-
ment was mathematical. AS. the
committee had reduced the bond is
sue proposed from four to two bill
lions, he illustrated thus: do your
minds grasp the appalling sig
nificance Of the sum Of four billion
dollars? It is q sum eQuiva-
lent to expenditure at the rate Of
nearly $3.50 minute for every min
ute which has elapsed since the
birth Of Christ"
To grasp the significance (appall-
ing or otherwise) of TWO instead Of
-FOUR BILLIONS, take half of "S4.50." "
and amend by inserting "$2-25"
above.
This is how we do things in Con-
gress. The war finance bill will be
debated further on Monday. 1t will
be "cussed and discussed" from every
angle. amended somewhat perhaps,
passed, conferred on with the Ser-
ate. reported back and passed by
both Houses-with every principle
