NEWBERRY DECISION WILL
 BE HELD UP FOR LONG TIME

Washington, June 22.-tSpecial.)- The Newberry decision will be long delayed. 1t is indicated. The attor- neys have 20 days in which to file briefs, and 10 additional days in which to present oral argument.
 Attorneys for Newberry. the Mich igan senator who escaped peniten- tiary sentence because of the uncon- stitutionality of the law under which he was convicted, will offer no brief or argument. They seem to be con vinced that the committee will clear their client, or if the committee has not already made up its mind, argu- ment would serve little purpose.
 It is generally admitted that the attorneys for Henry Ford gave New berry a considerable shaking up. The situation Is regarded as more serious than that which developed as result of his trial in Grand Rapids. And 1t is not altogether certain that the committee will clear the senator. His vote is not needed. as it was when he was elected as result of question able tactics. And it might be good politics to turn the senator out into the cold.
 The defense seems to depend 'on its contention that Newberry knew noth- Ing of the million spent in his behalf. Opponents of Newberry contend that he either knew of the contributions and was guilty of conspiracy. or he is so xlacking in power of observation and in perspicacity as to disqualify him for continued service in the Sem ate.
 The case might drag its weary length through another year. Ire spective of the verdict. it is fore

CRAZY NEGRO WAS
 "FUNNYING" WITH GUN


 Moulton, June 22.--(Special) )--l.ast Saturday morning when Tom Brewer a farmer living six miles west O. MtultoI, went to feed his horses he found a negro with A shotgun the negro, it Is said, attempted to attack him Brewer went to the house for lis own gun and before his return the assaiiant was gone.
 The matter was reported to officers wha found the negro several miles oasl Of town Monday morning he gave lis name as Warren Madden and said that he lived near Spring Valley, little village south of Tus cSnbia in Colbert county; he said thar he meant no harm but was in the habit of "funnying people with his gun The suspect was placed in jail in Moulton, however, and 1t seems that probably he is crazy the cnly weapon he had about his person when captured was stick

tinct from the executive, and that he would not interfere with the former. He doesn't want to do so. But it is regarded as certain that he will be compelled to act.
 Of course. he will not appear in the role of a lash wielder. He will sim ply remind thesleaders. either in pri- vate, or in public, that something must be done. It will be a spanking. but one administered with regret, and only through acute necessity.
 Cause of Condition
 The situation is serious. Conferees cannot agree regarding the appropri- alton bill for the navy, and have not agreed regarding the appropriation bill for the army. The peace resolu- ton. like Mahomets coffin, is sus- pended between heaven and earth; likewise the disarmament amend ment.
 The emergency tariff blll is regard ed as a failure, or a bit of legislative hypocrisy which has fooled nobody. The permanent tariff bill has not even been introduced, and already sharp disagreement between the east and west has deveiopeG, Legislation for the revision of taxation is admit tedly hopeless.
 The soldiers bonus legislation has arrayed business, represented by the Chamber of Commerce of the United States. against the soldiers who fought the war. their people, and the sentimentalists, generally. Measures revising the departments to the end that efficiency might prevail and in numerable clerks dismissed, is appar- ently in chaos.
 Burden of Taxes

 e PLANS FALL THROUGH

Moulton. June 2.--(Special.) 1.-The patriotic plans of the Lawrence County Civic club seem to have come to naught, for the time being, at least. The plan was to raise suf- ficient funds. to secure state and federal aid; the funds were sub scribed and action favorable was ex- pected from the county board of revenue at it's special meeting Mon day; the majority of the board of revenue, however, was opposed to entering into any agreement that would bind it to payments covering period of six or seven years. The club is deserving of praise for the strenuous effort put forth in the past several weeks to get at least part of the county out of the mud, and appreciation of the cooperation of the Albany Chamber of Commerce in the proposed plan is duly felt by those who have had the matter in hand.

Meridian Council Rescinds Action on
 HospitcI Bond Issue

Meridian, Miss, June 22.-(Speciai.) election to provide funds for the con- struction of new Matty Hersee Charity hospital building. to take the place of the present structure, has been lz.lled by the city council, the body, on 1ootion of Councilman Albert Covington, resembling it's former ac- tion authorizing the city attorney U Irepare t. bond issue ord nance D be submitted to the electo a.e for ratification.
 The action to rescind followed a controversy between Mayor John w. Parker and the state board of trus- tees of the hospital, the former op- posing the proposed issue of bonds from the outset on the grounds that such an. expenditure was unnecessary if the hospital held to the strict let ter of the law in the treatment or only patients who were objects of charity.
 The hospital board resented this reference contained in a message of the mayor to the council, calling on the mayor to furnish information which would substantiate his ''insin- uations" Replying to the resolutions the mayor asserted that number Of reputable citizens had provided him with names of parties who had been treated at the hospital who were not objects of charity, and called on the trustees to investigate this informa- ton, and volunteered to appear be- fore them and assist them in the ln- vestigation in any way that he couid. Up to the present time the hospltai board has not replied to the mayor President F. B. Gammage or the board stating that he could not say at this time when the board would take action. if any

By HUGH W. ROBERTS Washington Bureau The Age-Heraid knn na rihanr, IsniILir,sr

Washington. June 22.-(Special.)- The indications are that President Harding will be forced to direct the republican majorities in Congress to complete legislation. and thus elimi- nate jam which, in an extra session, has had no precedent.
 The President, if he acts in this re- gard, will do so with great reluc- tance. As a member of the Senate, he reached conclusion that former President Wilson was too prone to assume Jurisdiction over the legisla- tive branch of the government. As a candidate, he reminded the people that the legislative branch was dis

bring reports to the President daily of the discontent of the people. who expected much of the republican party. It is regarded as likely, there- fore. that the President will act.
 Minor egislatioh-that Is minor in comparison, will eventually succeed That Is, the army and navy bills will be enacted in some form and manner. But 1t is different with permanent financial legislation. The repub- licans cannot reduce the cost of gov ernment. and the actual spending the next fiscal year. if the bonus bill is adopted. will approximate sT,0O0, 000,- 900. Thus taxation must be in- creased. Senator Shoot. himself, says so, and Senator Shoot is the financial wizard of the republican party in Congress.
 Former Senator Sutherland of Iowa. one of the Presidents advisers, and Senator Shoot urge a shift of the burden of taxation--from the backs of the rich to the consumer. They would relieve big business of excess profit and income taxation, and in- stitute sales tax under which every body would pay a bit more for every thing that they buy. But the House leaders, very close 10 the people, hes itate, even balk.
 Horns of Dilemma
 At that. 1t is a very pretty political issue. As result of the shift, the peo pie would become resentful. But it is a question as to whether big business or the consumer is the more valuable ally in political campaigns.
 The republicans must accept the one or the other. This much is certain: Somebody must pay the taxes and taxes will be higher than ever And the congressional elections will be events of the next year.
 President Harding may revise his sta cement that government is a very simnle matter.

ROW AMONG ANTI-
 LEAGUE OFFICIALS OVER BEER

Washington, June 22.-(Special)-- A matter of great distress to the nor al element is the bitter controversy raging between Dr. F.. C. Dinwiddie. erstwhle legislative superintendent, and Wayne B. Wheeler, general coun- sel of the Anti Saloon League of America.
 At the present time the controversy has reached the public. It Is based on differences as to the best manner in which to outlaw beer. MT. Wheeler stands for a measure which would not only preclude the manufacture and sale of beer for medical purposes. but would handicap chemists and pharmacists in their use of alcohol and wine in the preparation of drugs. MT Dinwiddie insists on simple bi.l outlawing beer.
 When the two differed before the judiciary committee last Saturday. Mir. Wheeler felt called upon to in- form the public that pr. Dinwiddie had been let Out" by the Anti-Saloon league, and was no longer in author ity. He argued that if the plan es- poused by Dnwiddie was adopted, and no action taken regarding alcohol and wine, the country would become flooded with alcohol, wine. whisky
 
 Dr. Dinwiddie, in reply, has ad dressed a communication to the press in which he states that straightout beer bill would be quickly adopted by Congress whereas the Wheeler "cure-all' would suffer inordinate de- lay in the House. and would De side tracked in the Senate. Dinwiddie, continuing, says that if Wheeler in sists in the face of certainty that his bill will be beaten, the country will become flooded with beer. .He holds that former Attorney General Palmer could not have rendered any other opinion. in face of tns law. but that doctors might prescribe beer and that the treasury cannot much longer withhold regulations under which beer might be manufactured and sold.
 It is difficult to ascertain the senti- ment of Congress respecting the diff ferences between these leading lights in the Anti-Saloon league. The real prohibitionists in Congress are dis tressed that differences have devel- oped. The remainder of the prohibit tionists, those who vote dry and drink wet are in the dark They do not know which of the leaders to. follow blindly

KENYON AND NORRIS SHOCKED
 OVER SETBACK IN THEIR BILL

Washington, June e2a-(Special)-- Senators Kenyon and Norris. who prepared the Senate bill regulating the big packers of the country, are still numb as result of the shock of the Senate's action respecting that bill.
 They were confident that they would be able to put it across even though the President had preached against government in business. But the Senate defeated it and adopt ed the House bill which was declared to be without teeth and which Sena- tor LaFollette charged was prepared in part by Attorney Lightfoot. em ployed by the packers.
 Senator Harris of Georgia, who ar dently supported the Senate bill, and who stanchly defended the federal trade commission against sll attacks aimed at it's work and existence, pre- diets that the packers, themselves. will return to Congress, in the fu- ture, and ask that they be put under the control of the federal trade com mission rather than the Secretary of Agriculture.
 The Secretary of Agriculture, said Senator Harris. "is politician. that is, a man in politics, whoever the secretary r11tBnt Us, or unueT WHdt- ever administration. When the peo pie of the country, in the future, rail against the packers and come to the Secretary for redress, he will give them redress, in accordance with their wishes, I predict.
 Now, the federal trade commits sion is not in politics. It is theoreti cally and practically nou-partisan. It Is not moved by the clamor of the people. It's actions are based on scientific information. Therefore. it stands to reason that the packers in the long run will wish they were under the jurisdiction of the commis- sion.
 The defeat of packer legislation as prepared by the Senate constituted the first complete defeat of the agrarian bloc composed of southern and western senators. The members of this bloc voted en mass. Southern democrats who opposed the legisla tion were Senators Underwood of Ala bama. Dial of South Carolina Stanley of Kentucky and Broussard of Louisi- ana.
 This opposition was based on the ground that the federal government has no business in business of pri- vate character, and was intended to check federalistic tendency to cen tralize all government and all busi- ness, in Washington.
