San Franciseo.-Seven witnesses

who were present at the party. John
P. Pickett, bellboy at the hotel, and
Miss Josephine Kesser, hotel maid.
Mrs. belmont swore to the murder
complaint against the film comedian

whose statements to the police caused
Arbuckle to be booked on a murder
complaint. Joyce Clark, another mem
Der of the party, was subpoenaed, but
was not called into the grand jury

U. S. SENATE FACING Jam
Ire OF Leaders Aroused BY Many Alb
sentees On The Opening Day
Sharp Sklrmish On Beer

Washington.--The senate finds itself
In legislative jam at the outset of
the post-vacation session.
Four major matters are before 1t
clamoring for attention
l. The revenue bill, called up in
the senate by Senator Penrose, chair
man of the finance committee, with
the announcement that consideration
would be pressed.
2. The antibeer bill, also called up
in the senate, which Senator Sterling
says he will push at every opportunity.
3. The Panama canal tolls repeal,
unfinished business in the senate, on
which there will be vote by agree
ment October 49,
4. Peace treaties with Germany,
Austria and Hungary, immediate rat
ification of which has been asked by
President Harding.
The tangle of business creates a sit
uation that is taxing the ingenuity Of
Republican leadership and which is
causing considerable concern, Adding
to the difficulties is the small attend
ance-33 Republicans and q Demo-
Gratis answered the roll call when Sem
ator Lodge, Republican leader, made
the plea OF no quorum. Leaders in the
majority are dspleased with the large
number Of absences.
The revenue bill is conceded in all
quarters to be entitled to precedence.
but It is feared that other matters will
interfere with its uninterrupted consid-
Grafton. The intention Of leaders Is to

questions not pertaining to the treaty
would be vigorously excluded.
Senator Penrose reported the reve-
nue. bill as soon as the senate met and
announced that he would ask for a
beginning of discussion when the COM
mittees report on the bill had been
received from the printer. Senator I'm
derwood Democratic leader, said the
minority would require seven days in
which to prepare its report on the
bill.
The determination of drys to push
the anti-beer bill means that 1t may
bob up to provoke debate at any time.
Senator Stirling called 1t up, and start
ed sharp parliamentary fight. Sena-
tor Reed, enemy of the bill, made a
motion to adjourn, which was defeat
ed. SO to 107. Then Reed argued that
1t was unfair to insist on consideration
of the bill, when many senators who
wished to oppose 1t were not present,
because they had thought the senate
would not be in session. He said there
was no filibuster against the BILL but
that one might develop If drys were
insistent. The dispute ended when
Senator Curtis moved for an executive
session. At one time Stirling persuad'
ed the senate to send the sergeant-at-
arms in search of absent members be-
cause there was no quorum.

A suggested reservation is the same
as one Senator Lodge, chairman OF
the committee on foreign relations,
offered when the treaty of Versailles
was before tn senat. 1t would pre-

Senator Borah directed the atten

Gently to consider the treaty. He
based his objections on the fact that
the treaty accepts certain provisions
of the Versailles pact
Borah contended that approval Of
the treaty would entail a moral and
probably legal obligation on the part
of the United States to baintain troops
in Germany.
He argued also that unless there
were a provision to the contrary, the
executive might name American dele
gates to sit on the various bodies set
up to administer the peace of Yer
sailles, notably the reparation COM
mission. to which there was partic-
ular objection from irreconclables. 1t
was argued that American participa.
ton in the affairs of the reparations
commission would entail involvment
in European political affairs for years
to come.
The reservation of Senator Lodge,
which 1t was suggested might be re-
vived, would forbid the president to
name any American representative to
sit on any international body without
consent Of congress, and II would re-
quire the confirmation by the senate
of any person named.

Charlotte, N. C.--Gloomy forebod
ings of last winter with respect to

ernor Harding, OF the federal reserve
board, declared in an address here
rcntly at tn Made-in-Carolina exposl'

THE banking situation has great

said, those engaged in agriculture
have opportunities and prospects
which were not anticipated few
months ago and 1t is of vital import
ance that this cooperation be given.
ut should be remembered Gov
ernor Harding continued, that in
order to maintain our production We
must push our foreign trade. We can
not maintain our foreign trade on the

they can produce better or more
cheaply that we can and exchange
commodities with them If we deter
mine to do business with and for our
selves alone it seems inevitable that
we must reduce out production to
meet merely American requirements"
The recent advance in the price
of cotton was in no way due to any
increase in the loans of Federal Re-
serve banks or to any expansion in
the currency, Governor Harding. de-
clared, but to operation of the inev-
