HOUSE COMMITTEE FAVORS TAKING OVER. LINES.

Washington, July 3.-Although the House interstate commerce committee late today ordered favorable report on resolution authorizing, if the President deems necessary. government control of telegraph, telephone, cable and radio systems as war measure, congressional leaders continued to- night to make plans looking to a re- cess of both houses through July and part of August They expected to dis pose of pending appropriation meas ures late this week or early next week and recess immediately afterwards.
 WILL POSTPONE ACTION
 Chairman Sims of the House commit tee announced that he would submit a report on the telegraph resolution at Ia brief holiday session tomorrow and would endeavor to bring it before the House as early as possible. Despite this. however, leaders declared that final action on the resolution would go over until after the recess unless Pres ident Wilson asked for it's adoption be- fore that time.
 In reaching an agreement on the proposal the House committee adopted as substitute for the Aswell reSo- lution, which was approved by the Pres ident, one proposed by Representative Sanders of Louisiana. This is similar to the resolution under which control of the railroads was taken over with a provision providing for just com pensation' to be paid the companies for the use of their wires.
 As originally offered the Sanders resolution provided for relinquishing of government control one year after the war ends, but in spite of protests front some members the committee amended it to provide for control only for the duration of the war The resolution as amended, follows:
 TEXT OF RESOLUTION
 That the President. in time of war. is authorized and empowered to su- pervise or take possession and assume control of any telegraph, telephone, marine cable, or radio system or sys- tems or any part thereof, and to op- crate the same in such manner as may be needful or desirable for the dura- tion of the war, which supervision. possession control or operation shall not extend beyond the date of the proclamation by the President of the exchange of notifications of the treaty of peace: Provided that just compensa- tion shall be made for such supervis- ion, possession, control or operation

A war catechism constitutes the
opening exercises in many OF the
grades of the Richmond schools. From
the high school to the lower grades
systematic instruction is being given
on the causes of the war. and Amer
ica's part in the great struggle.
In the high school the causes OF
the war are taught In the history and
English classes. The textbook on the
war sent out by the state council OF
defense is used in connection with
several other textbooks written by edu.
Gators on the meaning of the war.
A war catechism, written by an
Illionis man, is proving an effective
means of getting the real questions OF
the war before the high school pupils,
as we'll as those of the lower grades.
Studies in government and sociol-
ogy, from bulletins sent out by the
government department OF education
are being used in connection with the
war stduies. The bulletins are grad
ed for high school, elementary and
lower grade pupils.
Instruction In current events and
the war causes has been given in the
schools here for some time. The wal

Notes on Music

Like the sun breaking through the
clouds of a dark and lowering sky.
comes a message to the heart cast
down with doubt and dismay at the
uncertainties the future appears to
hold.
1.-The Lord is My Light" Is hymn
Of trust that Mccormack, on a new
Victrola Record. delivers with passion
ate sincerity Granting that the war
has brought untold misery, it is well
known fact that in France and Eng
land there has been a great renewal OF
religious faith. Torn with anguish and
spent with grief that no human
agency can palliate, men are turning
again to the God Of our Fathers.
known OF old" and in the light of that
faith are finding new courage to bear
whatever suffering may yet be theirs.
Apart from its message the song is
unusually good music-melodious in
style, gloriously rich in harmony and
| intensely dramatic in feeling; and Nc
Cormack sings it with a noticeable dis
play Of inspired confidence and burn
| ing earnestness.
"A Little Bit o. Honey" Is the latest
composition from the pen of Carrie
Jacobs Bond which Evan Williams has
made imperishable by singing it for
Victrola Records. The song transports
you to a log cabin way down South,
where a coal-black pickaninny has ar
rived in state with "a little turn-up
nose, and little bunch O. wool upon
yo' head"
The marvellous soprano of Claudia
Muzio is heard in two Pathe recordings
Of "Ritorna vincitor,' Parts and II.
Singing in Italian, the language of
her own country, she reaches the pin
nacle of dramatic expression in these
| two numbers.

NATIONAL WAR SONG,

The time has come for action,
On every battle front
We know the boys in kaiki
Will have to bear the brunt
OF the onslaught of the millions
OF blood-thirsty Huns,
And we have them on the run.
Then please don't call halt,
1t would surely be sin,
Until we unfurl "Old Glory"
In the streets of Berlin.
We think Of outraged Belgium,
And outraged womanhood,
We think of all her sufferings,
And the loss Of all her blood.
We think of all the lives it cost,
And our hearts are filed with woe,
So the drive across the Rhine and on
To victory must go.
For the only compensation
We see through the battle din,
Is to plant our glorious emblem
In the streets of Berlin.
War is all that Sherman said is was.
But we must never stop,
Until every warrior at the front
Has gone over the top"
For we can never reach the goal
or peace on earth, good will to men,
Until we sing our national anthem
In the city of Berlin

THE SPRING DRIVE

Did you get your invitation Tor
The battle at the front,
Where the big guns of the kaiser tried
To pull their annual stunt?
All the neutral pencil-pushers got
Their invite for the fray,
And the big shows now in progress;
opened
Up just yesterday.
All the guns along the Western front
Are booming left and right,
AS the Germans try to break our line
With all their strength and might;
But the Tommies and the poilus. they
Have stopped this latest push,
Driving these deluded butchers back
To cover in the bush.
Next we'll hear of Pershing's Sammies
Making dead ones" of this bunch,
Then old Kaiser Bill will boiler,
