.NO ACTION TAKEN
 IN MART IN CASE

No action was taken in the Nichan Martin case by the board of par dons and parole at it's meeting in Florence yesterday.
 The board was in session three hours, Martin alone appearing before the members. He protested that he was innocent of the crime for which he is sentenced to be hanged at day break Friday
 It is understood that while he de- nied his guilt he was unable to throw any new light on the case. His protests were largely built upon de- nial of testimony offered by other witnesses it is said
 No statement could be had from any members of the board on their return last evening other than that there was nothing to report at this time. Any further action in the case
 will be taken in Phoenix either this evening or Thursday morning. In the meantime all arrangements are being made at the prison for car rying out the death penalty on the l man found guilty of the murder ol I Arthur De Steunder, Canadian sol l dier. The death watch was placed
 over Martin days ago and invitation to the hanging were sent out. Among
 the number receiving black bordere< cards were relatives of De Steunde

 WASHINGTON, June 7.-The house prepared today for its fight to strike the Borah disarmament amendment from the naval appropriation bill.
 In sending the bill to conference by vote of 232 to no. Republican leaders indicated the house would not have an opportunity to vote di- rectly on the Borah amendment.
 Instead Representative Mondell. Republican leader. announced he would leave in the hands of President Harding the question of calling an international disarmament confer ence.
 While there was sharp difference of opinion of the Borah amendment the house seemed united in its de- termination not to accept any part of the $9s. s.o00,0 900 added to the naval bill by the senate.
 The PoHer resolution was attacked by Democrats, Representative Con- l nally. Texas. declaring 1t to be a f-ecolorless pne-half of 1 per cent proposition without teeth or whis- kers."

 Procedure in Dishwashins
 There followed the German and the American employers of two Ger man maids who had all but come to blows as to precedence over the kitchen sink in the important matter of dishwashing. This getting the dishwashing done in a hurry is im- portant because the girl who finishes first has more time to walk in the sweetheart. There is, moreover, all ways a certain amount of jealousy between the maid employed by a Ger man family and the employe of one of the occupying families The girl employed by an American family. es- pecially, has better wages and better and more plenteous food than the
 employe of a German family. She is
 very apt to give herself airs And
 her resentful co-worker resorts to
 whatever methods of petty reprisal
 come to her mind.
 One German woman insisted that the ,naid employed by British fam ily who shared her home burned holes in the pots and pans. and did 1t with malice aforethought because she dis liked the other maid with whom she was forced to share the kitchen The small son of an American officer insisted on being present Tn the kitchen while the German lam 1 iiy's maid was preparing the dinner and the girl. exasperated by the 1 youngster. ended by boxing his ears.

protesting invaders. Also a court case.
 Fortunately. the meal times of the various families do not conflict as frequently as might be supposed. The coffee and bread of the German family are quickly disposed of to make room for the more elaborate breakfast of the Americans. The German has his dinner at noon, while the American ndulges in light lunch, and the German supper at s o'clock or whereabouts. is usually of cold meats and beer, and does not interfere to a great extent with the preparation of the American dinner. But in those cases where dishes and utensils must be jointly used by both families there is plenty of room for international disagreement. And the treaty of Versailles has nothing to do with it.
