THE ROMANCE OF WORDS
CAUCUS"

n HIS thoroughly American
i word, meaning a secret
conference or meeting of the
leaders Of a political party, is
frequently encountered In re-
ports of the activities Of con-
gress or in connection with the
work carried on during the time
which Immediately precedes
presidential elections. More
over, caucus" owes It's origin
to one of the earliest of Ameri-
can politicians, Henry Adams,
who was very prominent in
colonial political circles during
the early part of the Eighteenth
century.
Being DESTROYS of controlling
certain Offices and Of securing
the appointment of men who
were friendly to his interests,
Adams organized club com
posed for the most part Of sea
captains, shipwrights and other
persons connected with mercan-
tile interests. Partly to conceal
the real nature Of the club and
partly because Of the nautical
atmosphere which surrounded
it, the organization was known
as the 'Caulkers' club" Before
long, rumors of its activities be-
gan to seep out and, when IA
vorable appointments were
named. people commenced to
say. "That was settled by the
Caulkers." AS time passed the
name of the club took on a more
phonetic spelling and the new
word, caucus was coined.

Legless Ex-Soldier

MIAMI, Fla, Jan. 25.-The bravery
and presence Of mind Of Bob Steele,
iegless former soldier and now traf-
fic officer at the Miami Beach club,
probably saved the life Of a little
child here Monday.
The baby was directly in the path
of an automobile swiftly backing out
of a parking space. When the war
veteran saw the danger, he rushed
to the spot just in time to shove
the child between the back wheels,
taking the impact on his own body.
Steele was badly bruised.
Steele moves about with great
celebrity sitting on a triangle base
under which are casters. His legs
are cut off at the hips, the result
of wounds received in France.

BY THEODORE TILLER

WASHINGTON, Jan. 25.-Both
Georgia senators voted for the Gron-
ma bill for the regulation of the meat
packing industry. Subsequently.
Senator Harris, who investigated
the packers while on the federal
trade commission, discussed the
legislation.
In addition to making public a
letter which he has written a num-,

Legislation. Senator Harris said that
hogs and cattle in Georgia and 9TH
err southeastern states had sold for
less than those Of other sections.
The discussion of the legislation
from Senator Harris viewpoint tells
of the investigation of the federal
trade commission, saying in part:

COMMISSION OF
ALLIES TO STUDY
AUSTRIANSTATUS

PARIS, Jan. 25.-An allied COM
mission to determine what must be
done toward the rehabilitation Of
| Austria was appointed today by the
| interallied supreme council.
Louis Loucheur, Robert Borne and
| Sgnor Giannini were assigned by
| France. Britain and Italy. to study
the Austrian situation and present
| report before the council adjourns.
These representatives, it was de-
cided, will be Sir Robert Horne,
president of the British Board OF
Trade; Louis Loucheur, French min
lister of liberated regions; Signor
Giannini, the Italian economic ex-
pert, and probably the ministers of
commerce of other allied countries,
including Belgium.
During the discussion in the coun-
Gil today the general opinion was
developed that it was useless to try
to do anything for Austria apart
from the solution of the economic
problems of the neighboring coun-
tries with which Austria's future Is
bound to be closely connected and
the suggestion from the Austrian
section of the reparations commits

guaranteed by pledges on Austrian
resources, was not acted upon. The
tendency is, it appears, to reject any
proposition likely to involve increas-
ed taxation for France and Great
Britain. The Italian viewpoint is
that Austria should not be allowed
to bind herself to any particular
through International arrangements.
From British sources it was learn
ed that the British proposal for TO-
100000 pounds credit to be extented
Austria, had been rejected by the
council before the. question was en-
trusted to a commission.
The possibility of American aid Tor
Austria was considered in a general
way, but the councillors agreed $s"'
it would be useless now to ask Amer
lean credits.

gagged in a long argument over tne

she does not disarm was cons1d-
cred, Marshal Foch and other ex-
perts being asked to report on the
Feasibility of the taking over of
Ruhr, Frankfort and other impor-
tant centers.
The re-arranged program of the
council calls for discussion Of the
Austrian situation today, followed
by Asia Minor, disarmament, repair
atoms, coal and observation-disclosures !
The question of German indemnity |
was discussed exclusively outside |
the Qua d. Orsay between the gov

Despite reported disagreements be-

hour.
The official program of the su-
preme council includes discussion of
the American scheme for League

This probably refers to various re-
ported plans of President-elect Hard

SECOND TO NONE TO REVISE LAWS
Harding Discusses Plans for
Increasing U. S. Navy.
Slacken Building Only After
Disarmament Is Agreed.

st. Augustine, Fla, Feb. 26.-PIans
for making the United States navy
second to none, were discussed today
by President-e elect Harding and Edwin
DENLY of Detroit, who will be secretary
of the navy after March 4.
Both Harding and DENLY, it was un-
derstood, oppose any slackening of
warship building until after partial
disarmament agreement is reached by
the powers.
DENLY and Harding discussed types
of battle craft to be constructed dur
ing the next four years and reorgani-
cation of the navy department.
The question of who will be ap-
pointed assistant secretary. of the navy
also was taken up.
Official announcement of DENLY
appointment to the cabinet was expect
ed to be made by Harding after their
conference today.
Before meeting Harding, DENLY de-
clined to talk beyond saying that the
tender of the navy portfolio was a
complete surprise to him. He will be
the only man representing world war
veterans in the cabinet.
He was a private and later second
lieutenant in the marine corps. DENLY
is so years old and has a powerful
physique and imposing stature with a
genial personality.
