Officers Above the Ranks of
Colonel and Captain Re.
spectively Are the Only
Exceptions to Agreement
Retroactive to January ]
Health Service and Nurses
Included; System To Be
in Effect to June 80. 1922

WASHINGTON, April 24.-House and
Senate conferees on the army and
navy pay bill reached an agreement to-
day under which increased pay will
be given to all enlisted men in both
services, as we'll as all commissioned
officers up to and including the rank
of colonel in the army and captain in
the navy.
Under the agreement enlisted men in
the navy will receive the average in
crease of 80 per cent provided in the
House bill, while enlisted men in the
army will receive the average of 20
per cent proposed in the Senate mea-
sure.
Senator Wadsworth, Republican, Of
New York, one Of the Senate managers,
said the increase for the two services
would amount to shout the same in
dollars because Of the difference in
ration and other allowances.
Senator Wadsworth said a general
increase would be allowed commits
stoned officers, but the amount agreed
upon was not made public. The in
creased pay will be retroactive to jan
uary / and will remain in effect until
June 80, 1922.

Squirrel Inn Closed

Bowery Headquarters Shut to

Bowery Headquarters Shut to
Migrants as New Law Stops
the Sale of Liquor
Prohibition evidently has had its re-
forming influence on the Bowery. The
cutting off of the supply of liquor, the
quality of which was always bit worse
on the Bowery than the worst served
elsewhere, and was commonly known
there as third rail-" has made unneces-
sary an institution established to combat
intemperance.
The Squirrel Inn, at 131 Bowery,
maintained by the Church Temperance
Society, Of which William Jay Schief-
felin, is treasurer, is to disappear. The
Protestant Episcopal Bishops of Long
Island, Massachusetts and Pennsylvania,
are officers of the society. The Inn was
founded to remove the cause of intem-
perance and was maintained as a coffee
house to keep men out of saloons. With
the public sale of liquor stopped, the
Church Temperance Society has decided
to sell the property and filed an applica-
ton in the Supreme Court yesterday
asking permission to do so. An offer Of
$40 900 has been made for the property,
of which $4,000 will be paid in cash
and the remainder held on mortgage.
In the petition to the court the society
said that many people believe that sa-
looms can be replaced as popular resort
by the substitution of motion picture
theaters.

Mr.. Pollock retired in good health.
he had been at his office the even

of last evening at a meeting of a
fraternal order which had signally
ionored him in previous years.
When Mrs. Pollock was awakened
about 6 a. m. she heard her husband
breathing heavily. He was awake,
but did not speak. Before Mrs. Pol

Prominently Known for Years
Mr.. Pollock was one of the best
known men in North Dakota. AS Il
resident Of Fargo since 1897 he had
engaged in the practice of law, head

Pollock & Pollock, which includes his
two sons, James W. and John c.

Secretary of Houston of the treasury
department today in an address before

mat the program necessitated the
maintenance of taxation.
After this fiscal year on a level of
not less than $400O,0OO,OOO annually.
Mr. Houston said receipts from the
present fiscal year would be material
y lower than the record of five bill
