 APPEAL TO CONGRESS
Vail and Robinson Both Ask Speedy Legislation to Return Wires
 to Private Ownership.

Washington, May 19.-Members of congress received today an appeal from Theodore N. Vail, president of the American Telephone and Telegra ph Co. and G. W. Robinson, president of the U. s. Independent Telephone association asking for speedy legisIa tion to enable return of the telephone properties throughout the country to their private owners. Since last November MT. Vail has been per sonal advisor to Postmaster Gen. Burleson in the governmental control of the wire. systems.
 The appeal says that, in view of the announcemen ents by both President Wilson and the postma ster general that government control would end as soon as arrangem could be made for advantageous operatiou of the wire systems. action by congress is the only remaining step necessary. It is further cOntended that unless con- gross acts promptly the deterioration of the properties caused by the fail ure to secure revenues to meet great ly increased expenses threatens in some localities a return to public ownership for operation.

 New York, May 19.-Harry c. HaWker is an Australian 27 years old. He began his career as a mechanic and rose to the rank of a fler under the tutelage of Sopwith, one of the earliest British airmen. He first came into prominence on October 24, 1912 when flying a Sopwith biplane. designed after the pattern of he Wrights, he established the Brit ish record of hours and 23 minutes for a duration flight and won the British Michelin u Ophy, for that year.
 Made Record in 1913.
 Tn 1913, flying a Sopwith equipped with a GnOme motor he established the then British altitude record of 300 feet and on the same day carried aloft two passengers to a height of 10,6O0 feet. Later he at tained what was claimed to be the worlds altitude record-28, 500 feet which, of course, was subsequently, eXcelled. During the war Hawkar was engaged as an experimental flyer assisting in the development of Sop with machines.
 IT 1918 and 1914 HaWker made two attempts in Sopwith to win the Lon- do. DaiIy Mails prize of $25,O00 for a flight around Great Britain. The first time he had to descend near Yarmouth because of illness and on the second occasion he met with a mishap near Dublin.
 Grieve 2S Years of Age.
 Commander Grieve is 28 years old. He is a wireless expert and a meteoro- lOgist as we'll as a flyer and for a time during the war commanded the cruiser Campania, mother ship of the British air squadron with the grand fleet.
 The following calculation by an engineer of a company supplying motors for a majority of British air planse shows what Hawker and Grieve expected their machine to accomplish in the transatlantic flight covering period of at least 20 hours:
 Something About the Planes.
 The blade types of each propeller to travel 12,00O miles,
 The piston of each cylinder to travel 440 miles, with four motors of 2 cylinders each, the piston distance would be 21,12O miles,
 Each engine to make 2,16O,OOO revolutions.
 The valves to be operated 25,92O,- 900 times in each engine.
 The pump forcing water through the radiator to have to lift 38.4OO gallons.
 The actual work performed by each engine would represent approximately 4,5OO,000 foot tons which is sufficient energy to lift the steamship Olympic, or 45,OO0 tons, 100 feet into the ;lir

At the termination of the war of liberation, would the United States abandon her daughter city to the cupidity of Juigo- Slavia under protest of an outlet to the sea, when Jugo- -Slavia could utilize half a dozen Jugo-Slav ports on the same sea?

Cu1nmins and GiIlett.

Promptly at noon today the extra ordinary session of congress got smoothly under way. With repubIi-l cans in the majority in both branches the leadership plunged into the worka of organization. In both house andz senate, the program well arranged ins advance started off as it had beenI planned. Vice President Marshall presided in the latter and Clerk Southl Trimble in the former. The usualI prayers and then the reading of President Wilson's proclamation preceded the calling of the rolls. Then the house proceeded to the busi- ness of electing a speaker, Represent tative Gillett of Massachusetts, and the senate turned to electing a presi- - dent pro tenn, Senator Cummins, of Iowa.
 By a majority of five votes, the rel publicans took control of the senate, electing Senator Cummins president pro tempore and defeating Senator Pittman of Nevada, democrat, by a record vote of 47 to 42.
 In the house the republicans effected organization by electing Rep resentative Frederick H. Gillett of Massachusetts speaker over Champ
 
 eight years.
 Vote Against Pittman.
 Republican Leader Lodge presented the resolution proposing Senator Cum mins and Democratic Leader Martin proposed Senator Pittman. On the first roll call under the new political alignment all republicans except Sem atOr Cummins himself and Senator Calder, who announced he withheld his vote in recognition of a pair with Senator Gerry, democrat, voted against Senator Pittman.
 The resolution for Senator Cummins then was adopted viva voce. Senator Overman of North Carolina, demo- crat, called to the chair, announced the result.
 After the republicans completed their organization the senate adjourn ed until tomorrow.
 Wilson's Message Tomorrow.
 Before adjourning, which was on a. resolution of respect for the late Representative Burnett of Alabama, the senate designated Senator Lodge and Senator Martin to communicate to the president that it was ready for business and abandoning the pre-ar- ranged plan not to meet again until Thursday voted to assem- hIo tomorrow so that President Wilson's message may be heard at the same time it is being read in the house.
 Vote for Speaker.
 The poll showed 227 for Gillett and 172 for Clark. Representatives Car ris, Minnesota, independent, and Ran dall of California, democrat, prohibi- tionists voted for Clark. Victor Ber-I ger of Wisconsin, whose seating is to be contested because he is under con viction for violation of the espionage law, did not attempt to vote.

Hedges That
are Interesting

The old idea Of using the hedge as
q boundary mark is lost sight of
when il is ma de a decorative feature
Of the lawn, and one woman man
aged to make her hedge the prettiest
IN " In her amateur landscape gar
dc
Ter house was an old-fashioned
" )den one. painted white. having
q At pillars running the full height
o, the house in front. Her war gar
d 1 was at one side of the house.
!, interesting as il was, she pre-
-ed TO have II made inconspicu-
G 5. Therefore she planted rose
Z hes along the edge nearest the
use, so that their blossoms would
le the potato plants. The rose
bushes were a delight all through
June and early July. but the thought
of a fiowerless hedge during the rest
Of the summer was hardly a pleas
ant one; so Iarkspur was planted in
front Of the rose bushes II began
10 bloom just as the family was en-
joying the last OF the roses, and its
brilliant blue stalks made an attrac-
tive bit Of color against the white
house, when seen from the road.
Quite as pretty was a hedge Of
sweet peas and hollyhocks. which
made gay the lawn OF neighbours
home. The trellis for the sweet peas
was painted a dull green, being about
the height Of the tallest hollyhocks
which made gay the lawn of a
neighbours home. The trellis for the
sweet peas was painted a dull green,
being about the height OF the tai
lest hollyhocks. The sweet peas
were various shades of pink and
lavender, and the hollyhocks were
all pink, so that the color harmony
was good. The sweet peas were on
/ the side next the road. and the
( hollyhocks, on the other side. hid
the treiliis Of the sweet peas from
sight. while the blossoms readily
found their way through the holly
hooks and so were visible from the
house.
Poppies and hOllyhocks were
charmingly combined by the owner
of stucco house. whose trimmings,
OF locust wood. needed a bit OF vivid
color TO show them off effectively.
The hollyhocks were planted against
the house walls, and in front Of them
were placed ragged-edged poppies,
OF pink and rose color. Some Of these
resembled peonies. when seen from
a distance. The pink of the holly
hooks and that OF the peoples COM
bined effectively. and greatly added
to the appearance Of the house.
A flower hedge which framed
glimpses Of the sea was of larkspur
and hydrangeas The latter were
/ placed at intervals of six or eight
feet, their pink and lavender blooms
making the blue of the larkspur
seem deeper by contrast. Another
garden above the ocean had hedge
/ OF fox gloves, whose touches OF lilac,
rose, yellow and purple made most
attractive boundary line for the edge
of the lawn.
In ore instance where II was de-
sirabIe to have a high hedge. so that
the house might be invisible from
the street, canary-bird vine was
planted. with a dull green trellis for
! il TO climb on. On the side OF the
hedge next the house other yellow
flowers were planted. varying in
height. so that during the summer
king calliopsis. climbing nasturiums,
African marigolds and yellow daisies
faced the house. while in the fall yell
low chrysanthemums and golden
glow added their bit OF color.
