TO ACCOUNT FOR
PARIS EXPENSES
House Resolution is Adopted
I'll to 79 Following
Heated Argument.

By AssoFiated IreSs.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 15.--After
heated debate the house late Tues
day adopted resolution calling
Pres't Wilson for an itemized state
ment showing disbursements and
allotments OF the 3f5O.0OO,0o war
funds voted by congress.
The resolution. which was adOLt-
ed 211 to 70. was attacked by the
democrats. who charged that 1t was
put forward at this time to defame
Pres't Wilson IN the closing days
OF his administration. Reference
TO expenditures of the American
peace commission at Paris famed
the flames on the democratic side
and turned the debate into strictly
partisan channels.
Chairman Good, OF the appropri-
ations committee. who reported the
resolution introduced by Rep.
Gould. republican. New York. de-
clared that IL any injustice had been
done the president. the democrats
were responsible by attempting TO
create the impression that there
was something crooked in the
money spending" when the resolu-
ton itself did not intimate that
there had been anything improper.
Bryns Makes Reply.
After the chairman had made a
preliminary statement rs 10 what
had been shown BY partial Forts
OF expenditures, Rep. Byrns demo-
crat. Tennessee. declared that while
he had no objection to adoption Of
the resolution he thought the infor-
nation should be sought from de-
partments 10 which the money had
been allotted. The president, he
said. had nothing to do with the
actual spending. that more than
four-ffths OF the fund had been ac-
counted for. and that 1t was merely
an attempt to make IL appear he
was unwilling TO present the rec
ord.

LEGISLATORS DUTY PLAIN

The Oklahoma legislature and the
legislatures of various western states
are in session.
These bodies owe duty to each
state which they cannot sidestep.
They owe IL TO the state to see
that every industry and every indi-
vidual is allowed to go ahead to
the fullest extent in order that
prosperity and employment may be
maintained
Never before have the RESPONSE
biltiies on our. lawmakers been
heavier or their direct responsible
ties to the public greater.
Taxation must be reduced. No
new burdens can be loaded onto
industry and meddling legislation
and regulation must not be sane
toned.
In other words IL Is the duty of
our law makers to give industry
and the individual chance to re-
establish himself on a peace time
basis without undue legislative and
political interference.

ARMY EXPERTS soLIDIFY AND
CAN POISON GASES

Canned. solidify poison gas. which
is claimed to be absolutely foolproof
and mobile, has been perfected for
use by the American soldier. accord
ing to the February issue of Popu-
lar Mechanics Magazine.
That two studies-defensiv and
oifensive-gas research--go hand In
hand already has been demon
strated, for, in addition to the de
velopment Of new forms of gas,
army experts at the Edgewood
(Md) arsenal have had to improve
the gas masks TO make them effec-
tive against some of the new gases
brought into existence there. In
technical military progress. every
new weapon means call upon the
armorer for a new defense.
AS a result. this country today
has not only gases which surpass
anything used during the World
war but mask which, in recent
tests, was worn "a hours a day for
week, except at mealtime, with.
out any discomfort whatever
Breathing was normal, speaking was
simple, and it kept out all the
gases thus far known.

Worth Considering

The question is not so much how
YOU contract a cold, but how to get
rid of 1t with the least loss of time
and inconvenience. IL you will
consider the experience of others
under similar circumstances, who
have been most successful in check
ing their colds, in their beginning,
you will secure bottle of Cham
berlain's Cough Remedy without
delay, and use it faithfully. There
are many families who have used
this preparation successfully for
years and hold it in high esteem.
1t is excellent.

bALLOU Tells
CITIZENS ABOUT
SCHOOLS need
Declares Regular Budget Does
Not Provide Funds tor
Rehabilitation.

Frank and detailed discussion OF
tho school budget by Superintendent
Of Schools Baliou before representa-
tives Of civic organizations ana citi'
sens' associations last night focused
upon the necessity Of urging Con-
gress to provide q liberal allowance
for pressing school needs.
Dr. Ballou declared District schools
could not be rehabilitated within the
regular annual budget. that an a.
ditional 100000 for construction
needs should be provided for next
year, with additional sums for con-
struction to follow for a period OF
years, and that associations should
support the board Of commissioners
in their contention that the regula-
lions limiting the budget to twice the
estimated revenues OF the District
should be repealed.
Additional class rooms would be
built each year. said Ballou. 80
that within five years the school sys-
tenn Of the District shall be free from
part-time classes, rented buildings,
portable school houses, oversized
classes and certain undesirable build
ings now in use.
The superintendent particularly
stressed what he termed the imme-
diat4' necessity of providing higher
salaries for the teaching force and
other school employees.
Much Of the provision for higher
pay in the estimate submitted to
District Commissioners was eiimi-
mated by the Commissioners before the
estimate, was submitted to Congress.
The request for $2,917,700 for teach
ers' salaries was cut to $3,244,060.
