AFTER FUS|LEADE

Edwin 8. Gee, former auditor Of

player Of international reputation,
who Is under $4,000 bonds pending
action OF the Federal grand jury on
charges Of alleged forgery Of checks

Government service, today Is at the
Washington Asylum Hospital.
Gee was sent to the asylum last
night following a disturbance, dur
ing which several pistol shots were
1red, in his apartment at 2416 Thir-
teenth street northwest.
Neighbors Feared Murder.
Considerable excitement among
other occupants OF the apartment
house followed the series OF revolver
reports. and telephone messages were
received by the police that "murder
was being committed" Gee was
locked up on charge Of discharging
firearms within the District.
Gee was nervous and excited when
examined at the police lookup and be-
cause OF his condition it was deemed
advisable to send him to the hospital.
Several hours before the disturbance
at his apartment, Gee with his for
mer assistant, Wilbur D. Coan, joint

Commissioner Isaac r. Hit and after
waving a hearing on the forgery
charges was released on $4,000 bail
for the action of the Federal grind

ans. whose husband is in Chicago. is
said to have been in the bathroom
when the shots were fired. She,
however, escaped uninjured.

HOUSE PASSES 100
MILLION FOOD BILL
~ JEAN KNOTT

President Wilson's strength on war
and peace measures still is practically
unimpsired in the lower house of
Congress. according to best indiea-
tions today.
This was the general interpreta-
I ttion. members placed upon the
Houses action in passing late yester-
day by q vote Of 242 to 73 the $780,
100000 foodstun bill, strongly urged
by the President to feed the starving
populations Of Europe.
There were several circumstances
that steered the foodstuffs bill into
the channel OF a real test Of Admins
tration strength in the House. It was
the first legislation asked by the
President since he incurred Repub-
lican criticism by going abroad.
Opposition Was skeptieaL
When the measure was first pro-
posed, expressions Of opposition from
both Democrats and Republicans
caused the prediction by House
leaders that the bill would have a
hard time passing.
This opinion was strengthened by
the action Of two House committees.
The Appropriation Committee report
ed the bill by the narrow margin Of
and one Democrat actively oppos-
ing. The Rules Committee once voted
adversely to the measure and then
reversed itself after the Democratic
organization got behind II.
But when the measure finally ca.re
onto the floor Of the House yesterday
and members had a chance to 20 on
record for or against II, the opposition
melted away so rapidly that the bill
passed IN about seven hours without
any limiting amendments. The oppo-
sition came from the Republican side,
but was not organized.
Mann and Cannon For Bill.
Republican Leader Mann and ex.
Speaker Cannon supported the bill,
while other leaders, including Repre-
sentatives Gillett OF Massachusetts,.
Fess OF Ohio. and Moore Of Pennsyl-
vania, opposed 1t.
As further evidence Of the Presi-
dents influence, Democrats pointed
out that an attempt by Represents
tive Mccullough of Ohio to take ad-
ministretion OF the food fund out OF
the Presidents hands and give it TO
a commission of three did not gather
strength enough to justify a record
vote.
An amendment by Congressman n
Woods OF Indiana to distribute tie
fund through the Red Cross at the
Presidents direction, was also beaten
BY 202 to III.
Whether the Presidents strength,
as indicated today on measures touch
ing foreign relations, will hold good
on purely domestic legislation IS d
question that may not be detern!u-
ed at this session OF CongreSs

VICTORY MEMORIAL HALL
IN CAPITAL is SUGGESTED

The erection OF a memorial hall in
Washington, to commemorate the
victory Of the American people and
the allied nations, instead Of an arch
of triumph, is the latest suggestion
in the discussion Of plans for a prop
er memorial.
L. II. Droop. member Of the board
OF directors OF the Board OF Trade.
at yesterdays meeting. discussed the
proposed memorial hall. Mr. Droop
gave Major Raymond W. Pullman,
Superinte ndent of Police. credit for
the idea.
AN arch would be but a silent
memorial Of the achievements OF our
soldiers, while a building would be
more in accord with American de-
mocracy." said Mr.. Droop. "The me-
mortal hall could be utilized for va
rious purposes, setting aside space
for Ia museum Of war relics"

Weather Turns Aircraft
AT Boiling Field Into
Gorified Ice Skates

Aviators at Boiling Field, ac-
cording to the word of the resi-
dents along Howard road, have
lately been using their planes as
suolimated ice skates. One old
man stoutly averred that instead
OF gasolene some of the flyers
must be "fllin' their machines
with likker,," because he had
seen one of the planes "stagger"
when landing.
Investigation disclosed the fact
that a part Of the flying field had
become flooded in the late rains
and had then frozen over. A
hne skating rink OF about two
acres resulted.
One Of the planes, in landing,
had struck the ice and performed
an interesting "side slip" under
the influence Of fairly heavy
side wind. thus giving rise to the
"likker" story.

WILL CRUSH REDS
Class at Graduation Hears
Address by Mr.. Palmer on
Nations Spirit.

Determination of the government to
preserve American ideals and institu-
lions from assault by lawless radicals
was given forceful expression yester-
day by Attorney General Palmer in his
address to the graduating class of
Georgetown University at the univer-
sity.
Mr.. Palmer, for the first time since
an anarchist made an attempt on his
life, more than two weeks ago. dis
cussed publicly the questions Of bolshe
vism and anarchy.
There is no room. as there is no
need. in this country" the Attorney
General said, for those who resort to
violence to impress their ultra-radieal
views upon the people or the govern
snent. They Will not get anywhere by
such methods. The government pro
poses to protect itself against attacks
from within as carefully and as force
fully as II has shown itself able to
protect itself against attacks from
without.
Neither the government nor any OF
its officers will be embarrassed or at
fected, much less frightened, by any
attempts, organized or unorganized. by
lawiess elements in this country to
terroriZe and stampede the govern
ment into doing something contrary
to the spirit of our free institutions
as designed by the fathers and sus-
tanned by all the generations OF men
, through the life of our republic.

The first real, -to-goodnes
doughboys, the men who converted H.
$4,000 pounds of dough into fine eatable
bread, chiefly for the old seth Infantry
arrived here yesterday on the trans
port Columbia from Marseilles.
On the army records they we're de-
scribed as the 305th Bakery Company
but over there they were called the
dough beaters" by the men who con-
sumed their product.
When reporters went aboard the Co
lumbia yesterday some of the eighty
two bakers laughed in derison at the
prospect of getting into public print.
"Ha, ha!"' said Private w. A. Boiler,
Of Chicago. Eve are the doughboys..
Don't fail to call US the doughboys.
It's huge joke, with whskers on it a
