RAILWAY STRIKE BILL
GIVEN MORE FORCE
Bill AS Reported Would Make Ii q
Felony to Attempt to Obstruct
Movement of Commodities

Washington, May 29.-Favorable re
port was ordered yesterday by the SEN
ate interstate commerce committee on
the Poindexter bill designed to prevent
interruption of transportation by
strikes of railroad employees.
The committee amended the meas
ure by attaching provisions similar to
the anti-strike clause eliminated from
the railroad reorganization bill after
labor leaders had made strong pro-
tests. Action ON the Poindexter bill
is not expected until congress recon-
venes after the national conventions.
The bill as reported would make a
felony of any attempt to Obstruct or
prevent movement of commodities in
interstate commerce by persuading
persons to quit work or by destroying
property and would provide for the
punishment of persons who, through
violence or threats, prevent employees
from continuing work. The anti-strike
provision of the railroad bill as added
to the Poindexter measure would pro-
nibit two or more persons from con-
spring to bring about a strike that |
would tie up interstate commerce.

CHINESE HOLD HILL SACRED
Huang Shan Created 4 Shrine More
Than Three Hundred Years Ago,
10 Tradition.

More than 300 years ago In the Ming
dynasty Buddhist priest named Pu
Men visited the Huang Shan in the
South Anhui hills. He was charmed
with the place and became infatuated
with the idea of making 1t sacred
mountain. A journey to Picking and
an audience with the royal household
resulted In the appropriation of large
sums of money for developing this
fairyland of the gods. A brass pagoda
was prepared for the first temple. It
was decorated with 1000 little Bud
dhas and was called Thousand God pa
CODA. i The temple, whose halls 1t
decked, was christened the Purple
Sand temple and is now restored and
called the Merciful Light hall.
AT that time, says the North China
Herald, hundreds Of priests came to
the mountains, and there was a period
Of Buddhist prosperity. Roads were
built to the tops Of all the important
peaks, and at least one temple was
erected far above the line of perennial
springs.

SOLDIER BONUS MEASURE
COMES UP IN THE HOUSE
Opponents of Measure Are Prepared
to Make Bitter Fight to Delay
Action on the Bill

Washington, May 29.-After week!
of committee hearings, caucuses and
negotiations. the soldier bonus bill will
be taken up today by the house. Its
opponents are prepared to make bit
ter fight to delay action on the bill or
prevent its passage, but concede they
will be defeated.
AS a forerunner of today's fight,
Representative Murphy. Republican, Of
Ohio, yesterday conducted filibuster
against transaction of any business
but finally stopped on assurance from
house leaders that the soldier bill
would be on the floor today. Mr..
Murphy's announced purpose was to
force immediate action on the soldier
measure and he took advantage OF
every opportunity yesterday to try to
force his way. Even the chaplafn's
prayer was delayed for half an hour
by the filibuster.
Chairman Campbell of the rules COM
mittee announced last night that he
would open today's session of the
house by presenting resolution sus-
pending all house rules for the next
six days.
The suspension program will re-
quire a two-thirls vote to pass Che |
bonus bill, but Mr.. Campbell said that
enough Democrats would join with the
Republicans to pass the blu
after brief debate
