recognition of the administration in
matters OF local patronage and party
rights was taken yesterday when a
delegation laid tentative plans before
George B. Christian, jr., secretary tc
the President. ana explained that
Harmony was the slogan, although
something should be done for those
outside the officiai fold.
Those in the delegation and their
respective political interests were:
Louis A. Dent, president of the
Harding and Coolidge Club of the
District OF Columbia.
Winfield Jones, representing Robert
l. Miller, original Harding man" and
president OF the Harding and Coolidge
League No. / of the District OF Co.
lumbia.
Aaron Bradshaw, veteran G. o. p
local leader, formerly identified with
the Republican State central COM
mittee.
Sidney Bieber, former member OF
the National Republican committee
from the District of Columbia who
has a large following in Washington,
Henry M. Camp. organizer of state
Republican clubs and neutra1ly inter
ested in such organizations in wash
ington and vicinity.
FIGHT ON COLLADAY.
The assumption OF these representa-
tives is that their factions and in
terests include practically all classes
of Republicans not actually affiliated
with the regular organization or
under its dominance, although no pre-
tense Is made that many of the men,
bers Of the two clubs do not recog-
nize the Official position of Mr.. Col
ladsy.
Mr.. ,Colladay was out OF the city
yesterday when the delegation called
on Secretary Christian. He expressed
surprise last night when told on his
return of the action taken in his
absence.
II had no knowledge whatever of
such a move" Mr.. Colladay told The
Times. II cannot comment on IT,. at
this time. What want to know NOW
is, Who was in the delegation?"
Secretary Christian had no com
ment to make regarding the confer
ence with the local leaders. 1t is
understood that he merely listened
to their scheme to promote local har-
mony and obtain what they rexa-d
as their rights, as IL is his unalter-
able policy not to dabble in petit y
politics In any form. II liz assumed
however, that he was glad to receive
the views of the various factions.
The significance of the conference,
or rather the alliance OF the several
discordant local elements, seems to
be that the District @. o. p. pot
which has been sizzling for some
time, will now begin to boil in earn
est and new factional lines will be
sharply drawn, although the express
ed purpose OF the plans Is Harmony"
One of the interesting phases 5f
the situation Is the return OF Mr..
Bieber 20 the local political arena.
Since his retirement as national
he has been rather an
observer than an active participant IN

there is every promise of action

Congressman Benjamin X. Focht of

District Committee, declared ,yesterS

and personal calls from citizens of the
District protesting against the slow
ress of District legislation and urg-
ing the need of immediate action"

sressman Zihlman of Maryland has
abandoned all hope for a voluntary

Hair Often Ruined
By Careless Washing

Soap should be used very carefully.
II you want to keep your hair look
ing its best. Most soaps and prepared
shampoos contain too much alkali.
This dries the scalp, makes the hair
brittle, and ruins II.
The best thing for steady use In
Mulsified cocoanut oil shampoo (which
Is pure and greaseless), and IL bet.
ter than anything else you can use.
One or two teaspoonfuls Of Mulsi.
fled will cleanse the hair and scalp
thoroughly. Simply moisten the hair
with water and rub It in. It makes an
abundance of rich, creamy, lather,
which rinses out easily, removing
every particle Of dust, dirt. dandruff
and excessive oil. The hair dries
quickly and evenly and Il leaves the
scalp soft. and the hair fine and silky,
bright. lustrous. fluffy and easy to
manage.
You can get Mulsified cocoanut oil
shampoo at any pharmacy: it's very
cheap, and a few ounces will supply
every member Of the family for
months. Be sure your druggist gives
you Mulsified.

late last night had not arrested Linton.
Mosier Is said to have shared his
daughters aversion TO LintCn's atten-
tons, and the boy believed that 1t was
the father who was to blame for his
unrequited love and apparently de-
liberately planned to murder him.
Linton drove to the Mos!er home,
knocked at the door and was invited
In by Mosier. The boy asked for a
map, saying he wished to use II In his
figh school work. When Mosier, &C.
cording to his statement, started to
walk across the room to bookcase to
accommodate the visitor, the youth
slipped UP behind him and shot him
with q revolver.
The daughter, hearing the shot,
rushed from upstairs into the room
and walked directly to where Linton
was standing, notwithstanding his
threat to shoot her.
IT dare you to shoot" she said.
He hesitated q moment and the girl
grasped his arm. struggled with him.
and then. showing him OFT on the
veranda. locked the door.
At the hospital II was found that
Mosier's spinal cord was severed by
the bullet. He Is paralyzed from the
ribs down and is not expected to re.
