and to the exclusion of -otber mat
ters, according to leaders.
They hope the bill can be ap-
proved and sent to conference
with a minimum or deIay. Demo-
cratic opposition Is expected to CEN
ter on the repeal of the excess
protts tax. Republicans hope some
or the opposition will be quieted by
the fact that the Upper Chamber in
creased the corporation tax to Is
per cent, retained a s2,5O0 exemp-
ton for married men and the 32 per
cent maximum for surtaxes.
May Present Bill Wednesday.
Senator Penrose said he will
move to call up the revenue bill
as soon as the session opens
Wednesday.
The bill forbidding the use OF beer
as medicine. which also has passed
the House, is likewise considered
urgent legislation.
The fight in this instance will
hinge about the clauses fOrbidding
search and seizure" without war
rant. The Senate was in a dead
lock on the question when the re-
cess began.
The AntiSaloon League already
has issued statements on the posi-
ton of the drys, and urging adop-
lion of the conference report on the
OIL. which grants no right OF
search whatever. but penalties an

empting American coastwise YES

begun financial arrangements which
will provide the railroads with cash

R. HARRY THOMAS AND
LOUISA PITT MARRY;
CALL FRIENDS BLUFF

Twelve hours after a fake an
nouncement of their wedding APP
peared in the Saturday mornings
paper, the contribution of an 'un-
known friend Miss Louisa Pitt,
high school girl. and Roy Harry
Thomas were married. Although
they had jokingly told some mar
ried friends on Friday that the
ceremony had been performed,
they were not engaged at the time,
it is said.
The marriage which was per-
formed by the Rev. George Kitch-
en- on Saturday evening, grew out
of a joke which was played on Mr..
and Mrs. Tartar, friends of the
couple. Since Miss Dorothy Sat-
terrified, a friend of Miss Pitts,
elcped to Bernalillo to marry Mr..
Tartar, some time ago. without
asking Miss Pitt to be witness,
the latter has threatened to get
even."
On Friday evening the couple
told their friends that they had
been married. They evidently got
away" with their pretense beauu-
fully, for it was reported by phone
to the Journal the same evening
by someone who did not give his
name. At the request of a friend
of Miss Pitts the report was de-
MED in the Journal the next day.
The couple are spending their
honeymoon at the home Of the
brides parents, Mr.. and Mrs. Sid
ney Pitt, at 1872 South Walter
street. Mr.. Thomas has been an
employe at the Santa Fee shops,
but being laid off recently has ia
ken other employment.

FRESH AIR JAG
NEARLY COSTS
BOY NIGHT "IN''

The exuberance of youth which
had been refreshingly unrestrained
during a weeks camping trip in
the wilds came very near costing
Ralph Wheeler a night in Jail and
a fine from the police judge. It's
not for a cop to distinguish be-
tween a fresh air jag and the near
ly extinct variety. but Judge Nc
Clellan can tell.
Wheeler was arrested Sunday
night in a down town cafe for dis
turbing the peace. His offense
consisted of one large and whole
some war whoop which eXuded
unconsciously at the sight of
large compensation check from
Wheeler's Uncle Sam, for which
he had been waiting many moons.
While waiting for supper he was
opening bunch of mail which had
accumulated during his absence
from the city.
The offender was whisked off to
the city jail while four fraternity
brothers who had been on the
camping trip with him argued with
the police. The officer wouldn't
listen to reason. however, and
there was nothing left for the COL
lege boys to do but scout among
their number to raise the fifty nee
essary to bail their brother out.
This was accomplished.
Wheeler appeared at the police
court yesterday morning thanked
by his loyal fraternity brothers.
He explained to the judge that he
just naturally forgot that he was
no longer out in the big spaces of
the open country and shouted
when he felt like It, The Judge
gave him suspended fine and
warning about keeping the muffler
on.

INSURANCE MEN
STILL WRITING
OF DUKE CITY

Interest is still being shown by
the representatives Of the Pacific
Mutual Life Insurance company,
who passed through Albuquerque
some time ago en- route to their
convention on the coast, in the AL
buquerque jingle contest started
among the members by H. B. Wat
kins, secretary of the local cham
Der of commerce. The chamber of
commerce presented a Navajo rug
to the manager of the special tram
with instructions that 1t be awarded
to the member of the party VINO
wrote the best poem, jingle or
something" about the Duke CITY,
the poem to be used later in a fold
err to soon be prepared by the
chamber.
Practically all of the 200 mem
bers of the party entered the con-
test and a number of good rhyms
were the result. The contest made
such an impression upon R. Ernest
Garland, representative from
Farmville, Virginia, that he sent
the chamber a verse yesterday,
which although it is too late to win
the blanket, indicates that Secre-
tary Watkins idea of entertaining
the visitors made a lasting impress
sion.
The recently received contribu-
ton follows:
ODE TO ALBUQUERQUE.
Albuquerque, thou art noted;
Far and wide thy names resound-
ing.
Many decades come and parted
Since fate decreed that in the West
land
Indians should give birth to thee;
To serve this country and all ma
tons
In thy own true wondrous way.
Though thy greatest, grandest serv-
ice
Is to heal the stricken sufferer,
Still we love and praise thee fur
Their
For thy charms and beauteous
splendor.
In a valley thou art nestled,
Guarded by gigantic mountains;
Peaks that tower nobly skyward
Watching thee within the night
time;
At thy feet the Rio Grande
Wends it's way to restless oceans.
Albuquerque, l would tell thee
That as Orion's golden setting
Kisses thee to return the morrow,
So / sadly bid thee farewell
! To come back when fortune faVOrS.
