PARLIAMENT OPENED BY KING
Irish Self Government Cannot Be At
tanned by Methods of crimi-
nal Violence, He Said.

Observation-Disclosures will lot solve the
Irish problem. King George declared
in his speech from the throne to the
two houses of parliament in formally
opening the session. One of the out
standing sections of his address re-
ferred TO Ireland, the king saying:
The situation in Ireland still causes
me distress. A misguided section Of
the Irish people persists IN resOrting
to methods of criminal violence with
the object of establishing an indie
pendent republic.
Neither Irish unity nor Irish self
government can be attained by this
means"
The kings speech was brief, but
touched on numerous vital questions
confronting the government At the
outset it referred TO the coming con-
ferences to be held in London and at
tended by the representatives of al
lied nations, Germany and Turkey

the house adopted a resolution calling
upon President Wilson for an item

and allotments of the $50 million dol
lars in war funds voted By congress
The resolution, which was adopted
211 to 79. was attacked by Democrats,
who charged it was put forward to de-
fame and malign President Wilson in
the closing days of his administration.
Reference to expenditures by the
American peace commission at Paris

ed the debate into strictly partisan
channels.

Democrats Defend Wilson.
After the chairman had made pre-
liminary statement as to what had
been shown by incomplete reports OF
expenditures, Representative Byrns,
Democrat, of Tennessee, declared that
while he had no objection to adoption
of the resolution, he thought the infor-
nation should be sought from depar-
ments to which the money had been
allotted The President, he said, had
nothing to do with the actual spend
ing; that more than four-fifths of the
funds had been accounted for, and that
it was merely an attempt to make it
appear he was unwilling to present
the record.

HOUSE VOTES FOR
The LARGER NAVY
The Appropriation Bill Carrying
$685., 600, 600 Passes After
Amendments Are Killed.
MEASURE NOW up TO SENATE
Many Attempts to Amend Bill Were
DecisiVeIy Voted DoWn-To Be
No New Contracts.

WaShington.-The naval apprOpr1a-
ton bill, carrying approximately 395
million dollars, was passed by the
house. An amendment that would
have prevented the expenditure of any
part of the 80 million dollars provided
for battle ship construction until an
international disarmament conference
shall have been called by the Presi-
lent was voted down decisively-
The house also refused to cut the
amount that would be available for
work on the navy's building program
during the coming fiscal year to so
million dollars, as proposed by Repre-
sentative Dickinson, Republican, of
Iowa, and by a vote of 282 to defeat
ed a motion by Representative Blan-
ton, Democrat, Of Texas, to recommit
the bill for the purpose of cutting the
appropriation for construction work to
Z million dollars, and of eliminating a
section that prevents the use of stop
watches in navy yards and arsenals.
The measure as it goes to the SEN
ate, however. carries an amendment,
offered by Representative Oliver,
Democrat, of Alabama, that no part
Oh the W m1lllOn dollars carrier IOT
new craft shall be used on ships on
which construction has not started, or
for which contracts have not been let.
Chairman Kelley of the subcommittee
that framed the bill agreed to this
limitation, saying it would mean that
work could not be started before July
1, 1922, on twelve destrOyers, six fleet
submarines and one transport, author
lied in 1916 but not yet placed under
contract.
Although somewhat riddled by
points of order that had been made
against a number of sections, the bill,
so far as it's main features were con-
cerned, was approved by the house
practically as it was reported by the
appropriations committee. Reduction
Of the enlisted personnel Of the marine
corps from approximately $4,000 to
10000 men was agreed to without
comment, as was the decrease in the
enlisted strength of the Lazy from
I43, 900 to 100000 men.

SHOWS CATTLE PRICE DROP
Greater Decline in 1890 Than the
Increase During the War,
Washington Says.

Washington.-Beef cattle on farms
lost in average value per head from
January 1, 1919, to January 1, 1921,
all that they gained during the par
ticipation of the United States in the
World War, and more than half as
much again, according to the bureau
of crop estimates of the department
of agriculture.
The loss occurred mostly in 1920.
This has been established by the re-
cent annual investigation of prices OF
farm animals per head made by the
bureau. The average price per head,
all ages, of cattle other than milk
cows, was 1852 in 1917. s44.22 in
1919 and S31.41 in 1921. January 1
last year the farm price was s4.51
below that of 1917. several months
before this country declared war
A statement by the bureau just
made public says:
In the case of swine the average
price per head, all ages. declined in
the two years, 1919 and 1920, SO per
cent of the gain in 1917 and 1918,
and two-thirds of the decline was in
1920"

KANSAS POLICE BALK A MOB
Station at Augusta Besieged for Hours
by Crowd Seeking TWO Men
One Fatally Shot.

Augusta, Kas.-For five hours the
police station here was beseiged by
mob estimated to number five hundred
persons, demanding the release OF a
prisoner and the surrendering to them
of detective who had probably fatal
ty shot one man N an attempt to
place three under arrest.
The shooting that led TO the trouble
occurred in front of the o. K. hotel,
to which place Detectives Oh Rogers
and Jesse Gernstad had been called to
arrest Charles Foreman, an oil field
worker, his brother, Everett, and Lee
HoweIls. According to Claude c.
Wheat, chief of police, Detective Rog-
ers reported that Charles Foreman
struck him when an arrest was at
tempted. In the resulting struggle
Foreman received shot through his
abdomen. He was rushed to a hospi-
tai where it is reported the man is
dying. The brother was placed under
arrest and placed in Jail. Later, the
third man, Howells, was taken into
custody.
All day rumors of trouble were
heard, and about o'clock at night
persons began gathering about the
police station, and re-enforcements
continually arrived.
The police force, finding itself un-
able to cope with the situation, was
strengthened by officers from nearby
towns in Butler County at the call of
Chief Wheat Other deputies were
sworn in until a force OF. twenty or
more was gathered within the police
station, heavily armed. While whisky
was being passed among members of
the gradually growing mob across the
street, the officers took up stations
to repel an anticipated attack.
Emboldened by the liquor, leaders of
the mob a short time later launched
a sally against the station, but were
repulsed by the garrison within led
by Chief Wheat, armed with shot
gun. But, while able to keep the
crowd, fast becoming ugly in mood,
the police force lacked strength of
numbers to dispense the crowd

WOMEN WATCH LEGISLATURE
Treatment of chiIdren's Code Program
by Lawmakers Is Not Alto
sether Satisfactory to Them.

Topeka.-The reception the Iegisla-
ture gives the children's code COM
mission program, Endorsed by every
women's organization in the state,
may decide very important point in
the political fields of the future. This
program represents the women's point
of view in welfare of mothers and
children. If the men Of the legisla-
ture fail to catch the women's point
of view on matters pertaining to fam
lily life, marriage laws, mothers pen
sions and the regulations relating to
children in industry it may be neces-
sary for Kansas to send more women
to the legislature. The four women
now in the legislature understand the
woman's viewpoint The women have
no trouble in getting the ideas
across to them. Mrs. Minnie ]. Grin
stead in particular has given valuable
assistance in interpreting the meas
ures of the children's code commis-
sion to the legislature.
On the other hand, the senate COM
nittee of temperance and hygiene has
reported "unfavorable" on the code
following commission bills, one Of
which extends public health service
into every county, another provides
for the teaching of physical education
in the schools, a measure that has

ers of the state and national organic
ations for community work A bill
prohibiting the attendance Of chill
dren. unattended, at places of public
amusements was killed in committee.
Even the measure which provides
against the display of obscene a6ver-
Using in public places was not passed
by the committee.
These bills, of course, are minor
measures of the big program. The
ommendation a bill on the regulation
on the practice of midwifery, an ac-
ton which indicates Indifference on

in Kansas where twenty-three moth
ers died in childbirth in December,
1920. and fourteen deaths were re-
ported from child-bed fever in jan
uary.
In both the house and the senate,
the men show the manly attitude of
wanting to get the bill "off their
hands," rather an unfriendly attitude.
One member made the unfortunate
boast that he was a "bill-kiIler" rath-
er than a sympathetic listener to ar
guments brought before the commit
tee.
