Major General C. T. Menohcr, for.
mer chief of the army air service,
who, rot long ago, visited Baltimore
for the purpose Of looking over pos
sibie sites for a government flying
field, says he can prove that his nose
is longer than his arm. AS evidence
he tells this story:
"a Few nights ago, ! was roaming
around a dark room and while | haG
both arms extended searching for an
open door my nose bumped it first. ;"
General Menoher's joke is going
the rounds of army circles in Wash.
irston and has created no end Of
amusement. AS a matter of fact,
the Generals proboscis is not of un-

some Of them 10 or so years after

Though he is as serious and sober
as a Judge, Senator Simmons. Of
North Carolina, ranking Democrat on
the Finance Committee, possesses a
keen sense of humor which asserts
Itself on the most unexpected occa-
sions.
Daring the hearings on the tariff
bill. Senator McNary. of Oregon, a
pronounced protectionist. appeared
before the Finance Committee to
urge g protective tariff on marasc-
hino cherries, which are grown in
grca. abundance on the Pacific coast.
".Arc those the sort of cherries
they put in cocktails ?" asked Scna-
tor Simmons, recalling to some COM
m;ttcc members present memories Of
pre-Volstead days.
"Thcy are" admitted Senator Nc
Nary
''Then I'm for protection" said
Senator Simmons with merry
twinkle in his eye.
incidentally, the North Carolina
Senator is one Of the 'dry" Senators
in Congress.

Senator Arthur Capper, OF Kan
sas. is much gratificd over the eff
forts Of Senator Smoot, Of Utah, to
effect economics in Uncle Sans
printing bills.
Il am amazed" says the Kansas
Senator, "at the number Of publ
cations printed in Washington at the
expense of the government. Near
y lCQ publications are printed and
circulated at federal expense. Every
Department OF the government IS
sues some sort Of a bulletin, news
letter or magazine. Many Of them
ace never read, or read by so few
that it is an utter waste OF public
money to print them. There are
countless reports, never opened, max
ing huge volumes. Two reforms
should be adopted by the govern
ment in this respect. In the first
place. no government publication
should be issued without specific
authority of Congress. The number
of publications should be limited to
those that are absolutely necessary
Then should like to see the House
abolish its leave to print rule, which
permits a member to print in the
Congressional Record remarks never
made on the floor Of the House.

faulty and that hundreds OF In
dians who were not on the reser-
walton. were deprived OF the rights
