Senate Passes
Army Bill Over
Veto by OF TO |
(ccntlnued from page one>

ana, who proposed the original reso-
luton to stop enlistments, predicted
the Senate would appropriate for an
army of 175,o00.
Reduction To Be Delayed
He pointed out that, as q matter of
fact, the army, which now has about
100000 men, will not be reduced to
175,000 by reason of the stoppage of
enlistments until September. Hence,
he said, if Congress appropriates for
only 10000 men it will not appro-
pirate for nearly as many men as are
in the army in the early part of the
new fiscal year, and will have to make
a deficiency appropriation later on.
1t is entirely possible the two
houses will get into serious clash
over the amount of the appropriation
for the army and that the army bill
will be forced over until after March d.
Senate Democrats who were present
and who voted to override the Presi-
dents veto were Ashurst, Dial, Fletcher,
Gay, Gore, Harris, Hehin. Henderson,
Hitchcock, Jones, of New Mexico; Ken
drick, Mcclellan, Myers, Overman,
Phelan, Pittman, Pomerene, Ransdell,
Robins, Sheppard, Simmons, Smith, Of
Georgia; Smith, of Maryland; Swanson,
Thomas, Trammell, Underwood, Walsh,
of Montana, and Wolcott. Twenty-nine
out of the sixty-seyen votes thus were
cast by Democrats.
GUN Club Veto Sustained
After disposing of the bill to stop en-
Hstments, the Senate turned about and
refused to override the veto of the
President on the Milk River Valley Gun
Club bill. By vote of to AT it up

Department of the Interior. The Presi-
dent in his veto message held the land
should be made into a Federal bird
reservation.
Senator Myers set out to explain the
bill and to say it had been asked by
the members of the gun club, some of
them men of prominence. He was
heckled and harassed by questions
from a dozen sources, Senators seeming
to feel it was intended to give the gun
club the privilege to shoot on grounds
whence the public was to be excluded.
In the end it received the votes of the
following nine Senators: Dial, Jones, of
Washington; Myers, Nelson, Phipps,
Poindexter, Smith, of Georgia; Spencer

temrlated their short-term securities

Pressed further by Senator Reed, he

tlons Committee tomorrow and make
a statement on the same subject.

! DESIRE"
Senator Reed then moved the an.
polntment of a subcommittee of three
to go to the Treasury Department ito
Investigate these matters.''
Senator Nelson said he didn't see
why both the Judiciary Committee and
the Foreign Relations Committee
should probe the matter.
Senator Reed then tackled the Rus
sian loan. Most Of his examination
into this question was devoted to
grllling Nicholas Kelley, Assistant Sec
retary OF the Treasury, who was before
Gne committee last week. Senator
Keed said some of Kelley's answers
were uncalled for and declared he was
gong to get to the bottom of the facts
about the loans.
In response to Senator Reeds ques-
TONS Mr.. Kelley said the total loans to
Russia were $187, ,729,750 They were
made between July 5, 1917, and No
vember r15. 1917. After the downfall
OF the kerensky government $56,0OO,-
900 was deposited by Boris Bakhmeteff,
representing the Kerensky government
in the National City Bank of New
York. Under the direction of Under
Secretary Polk of the State Depart
ment and Norman Fl. Davis, who was
then in the Treasury, this balance was
used Tor the most part in meeting the
amounts due American contractors who
mad made contracts with the Kereusky
government before it's fall. He called
TINS financial operation a brilliant one
and said that it averted dreadful
hnaclal calamity, such as would have
come about If the contractors had zone
proke at that time. He took the view
that for the United States to have i'm
pounded the $56,00O,OOO, when owed
Slol,ooO,OOO, and to have allowed the
contractors TO fail, would have been un-
wise. N
Preference to Contractors
$50 you preferred to protect the in
'terests OF the contractors rather than
those of the government" asked Sena-
tor Reed.
Kelley did not comment
Senator Reed wanted to know if
Bakhmetef checked out any funds lust
before he left the United States.
They didn't draw any out for that
Journey" said Kelley.
Early in 1920, said Kelley, the Rus
sian embassy drew out 100000 for the
embassy. The Treasury did not OBJ
jeet. Later this was made up out of
ether funds.

For Defying
Kansas Court
Three Other Union Men Are
Arrested After Official
Charges President Or
dered Walkout of Miners
Admits He Is Guilty
Court Gives Executives Until
To-day TO File am AM
swer to- the Charges

PITTSBURG, Kan. Feb. 7.--Judge A.
j Cnrran to-day issued attachments
for the immediate arrest of Alexander
Howat, president of the Kansas coal
miners, and for all the members of the
district executive board of the union.
Howat was arrested about A o'clock
and Immediately brought into the dis
trict court room.
The order for the arrest Of the union
officials was made on application of
Richard j. Hopkins, State Attorney
General, and c. A. Burnett. County
Attorney.
Judge Curran's action followed evil
dence given by George Young, an Of
fetal Of the miners union local at
Scammon, involved in the strike on
"H" mine, that Howat handed to him
personally the order for the walk-out Of
coal workers. Young produced the
order which Howat had given to him.
Admits He Called Strike
When the Kansas miners president
was arraigned before Judge Curran,
he admitted he had called the strike.
"Whether it is violation of the
court order is for the court to say"
Howat added.
President Dorchy, brought into
court with Howat. simply said; "I am
guilty"
Willard Titus, board member. also
was hailed before the Judge.
When Thomas Harvey, secretary and
treasurer of the District Miners
Union, was brought before Judge Cur
ran he testified he did not vote for
the order calling the strike, and that
he opposed it in the discussion at the
meeting. On motion OF the state the
court dismissed the action against
Harvey.
Howat, Dorchy and Titus were re-
leased on their own recognizance and
ordered TO appear in court tomorrow
afternoon.
To File Answer To-day
Howat informed the court that Amos
Standering, of Rich Hill, Mo-, and John
Billings, of Usage County, Kan, board
members, were not at the meeting of
the board and the court dismissed at
tachments for them.
Thomas Cunningham, formerly dis
trict auditor, also was arrested, but
when he explained that he no longer
was an official of the union BE was
discharged.
Judge Curran set 1880 O'Clock to-
morrow afternoon as the hour for the
three TO file a written answer, if they
desired.
The court action is the outgrowth of
a strike in two mines of the Pitts
burgh field, which resulted from con-
troversy of the miners union with the
mine owners over the age of a miner.
The Attorney General contended that
the strike was in violation of the in
junction issued last summer by Judge
Curran, and that therefore the miners
officials were in contempt of court. 1t
was asserted that the calling of the
strike was in the nature of a test of
strength between the Howat forces and
the Kansas Industrial Relations Court.

Sees Effort to Discredit Court

TOPEKA, Kan, Feb. 1.-THE pur-
pose of Alexander Howat and other
mine union officials in calling coal
miners strike in the Pittsburg region
apparently is to discredit the Kansas
Court of Industrial Relations in the six
states where bills to create similar
tribunals have been introduced, Gov
ernor H. J. Allen declared In state
ment to-day.
Industrial court bills have been in
troduced in Iowa, Nebraska, Oklahoma,
Texas, Colorado and Washington"
Governor Allen said. "It seems Howat
is attempting TO block passage in these
states by showing that the law is
failure in Kansas.
"Since the creation Of the industrial
court year ago the Pittsburg district
has had almost absolute industrial
peace. Whatever Howat's game may be,
the state will meet it,

Treasury officials had dared hope for

from taxes this year would be less
than the ,amornt received last year,
due to the break, in prices and the
resultant decrease in the earnings Of
many of the great corporations upon
which the government : is dependent
for a large portion of its revenues
There was no way, however, Of ar
irving at the amount. of this de-
crease until the first installment Of
taxes had been paid. Some unofficial
estimates had placed the total of the
first ,installment As low as S50a,-

mates had placed the figure at
$6o0,o00,GOO
Knowledge that the total will be

gratifying to Treasury officials rs
