BLOCK Vote ON
TINCHER BILL
Although Temporarily Put Off
Final Vote Is First Order
of Business Today.
(ey The Associated Press.3

WASHINGTON, May IA final
vote on the .Tincher bill to regulate
dealings in grain futures was blocked
late today by Representative Walsh,
republican, Massachusetts,, who de-
manded reading of an engrossed
copy Of the bill which was not a vail
able. Vote |on passage, however, had
been ordered by the house and it will
be the first order of business tomor-
row.
Representative Tincher, republican,
Kansas, author of the measure, said he
was confident it would be passed de-
spite evidences of opposition which
crept out during consideration of the
proposal today.
Opponents of the bill contended it
would authorize unwarranted govern
mental interference in business and
declared that many of the provisions
were too drastic. Proponents held that
the measure would check manipulation
of grain prices and would prove bene-
ficial to farmers.
The bill, as it will come up for pass
age tomorrow is practically in the form
in which it was unanimously reported
by the agriculture committee.

HOLLAND MAKES
mo DISTINCTION
AS TO CAPITAL
Has Other Rich Oil Fields and
Wclld Be Glad to Make
Contracts.
(Ry The Associated Press,

WASHINGTON, May 12.-Nether
lands legislation does not draw any
distinction between Dutch and foreign
capital in the exploitation of oil fields
and that government desires to see
American capital take part in such ex-
ploitation, says the reply of the Meth
erlands government to the note re-
Gently presented at The Hague. by
VIM. Phillips, the American minister
concerning concessions in the Djambj
oil fields in the Dutch East Indies.
/ A summary of the reply was made
public in statement by the state de-
partment tonight, which in addition to
outlining the points made by the Dutch
foreign office reviewed negotiations
which had led to the formal exchange
of notes. A further communication
On the subject is expected to be dis
patched soon by secretary Hughes to
the Hague.
Concerning the recent passage in
the second chamber Of the Netherlands
parliament of an oil bill granting a
concession to the Batavia company in
the Djambi fields to the exclusion of
Americans, the Netherlands reply says
that when, last January, Mr.. Phillips
requested that American companies
be permitted to participate in the
Djambi concession, the law had al
ready been drafted and the question
pending the approval of parliament,
had been settled. AS for American
capital participating in the Batavia
company, it says that such a ques-
tion must be subject to the approval
of the Dutch government.
The reply. adds. however. that there
are rich oil fields in both Sumatra and
Borneo and the minister of colonies
would be glad to make contracts with
other companies for their exploitation
similar to that already made with the
Batavia company.

SAYS PRIMARY
: NOT REGARDED
AS OBLIGATION
Was Only an Expression Of
Preference for Information
of the Delegates.
(sy The Associated Press (,

WASHINGTON, May 12.-Testi-
mony and arguments in the case of
David H. Blair, of Winston Salem, N.
c., nominee for internal revenue COM
missioner, was concluded today by the
senate finance committee. A decision
is expected to be announced Saturday
or Monday.
With the nomination Of Blair held
up by the fight of Senator Johnson,
republican, California, against his con-
firmation, the office of internal reve-
nue. commissioner today became tech
nically vacant, the thirty day term of
M. F. West, assistant commissioner
expiring by legal limitation.
Secretary Mellon, of the treasury de-
partment, took over the commission
ers functions temporarily.
Further testimony on Senator john
sons charges that Mr.. Blair as a dele
gate to the republican national con-
vention at Chicago, violated the North
Carolina primary in failing to vote
for Senator Johnson and also that be-
cause of an income tax case involving
mis- father-in-law and wife, Mr.. Blair
should be disqualified was taken today
by the committee.
Marion Butler, former United States
senator from North Carolina, and Rob-
ert Mcneil, a North Carolina lawyer,
testified regarding the republican pri-
mary last June. In executive session
both witnesses were said to have in
formed the committee that the pri-
mary was not. regarded as binding
upon the delegates but was an express
sion Of preference only. This view
was said to have been opposed sharp
ly by Senator johnson.
The latter, late today, gave detailed
arguments against Mr.. Blair's confir-
nation in the presence of the nominee
and John H. Moorehead, republican
national committeeman for North
Carolina. After the arguments the
committee ordered the testimony
printed with a view to it's consideration
and vote in a few days.

some show of feeling challenged the
physicians ability to explain any

ed the witness was using "conglom-

Outstanding in the testimony was
the statement by Oliver 7. Remmer3,
counsel for the Anheuser-- Busch com

He requested congressional investt-

Mr.. Volstead sought to establish
why it was not possible for physicians

DAWN several questions along this

committee chairman who finally blurt-

The witness again attempted an ex-

Volstead, who inquired why cereal

Guerilla Warfare, With Odds
Against State Forces
Is Being Waged.
WORST OUTBREAK SINCE
THE MATTEWAN BATTLE
Passengers on Train TerrOrized
as Bullets Come From
the Mountains.
10y The Associated Press).


WILLIAMSON, w. Va, May 12.-
Guerilla warfare, with all odds ap-
parently favoring the forces opposing
the state, was being waged tonight in
the grim mountains of the strike-torn
Ningo county coal fields.
Beginning soon after dawn this
morning at the little mining town OF
Nerrimac, four miles up the Tug river
from this city, fusillade of shots
was poured from the mountain side
successively into Merrimac, Rawl,
Sprigg and Matewan, West Virginia,
and McCarr, Kentucky.
All available state police and deputy
sheriffs centered in Williamson, were
rushed to the secene. by train and au-
tOmobile but according to reports,
they had been unable at a late hour
to check the shooting.
Harry c. Station, a state prohibition
gent and merchant at Spriggs, was
killed. ana Noah Phillips and a young
man named Calvert. employees of the
White Star Coal company commissary
at Merrimac, have been seriously
wounded Rumors Of other killings
and woundings have been received at
headquarters OF the state police here.
Tonight about twenty state police
were reported TO be working their way
and Rawl, seeking to get above and
outflank their hidden foes.
This force was led by Captain j. r.
Bgockus, commander of the state po-
lice in the Williamson district. A score
Of deputy sheriffs under Chief Deputy
John S. Hall were cooperating with
Captain Brockus and his men.
Today's outbreak, the worst since
the Matewan battle of last May 10, in
which ten persons were killed includ
ing the mayor of Matewan, had all
the appearance Of a pre- arranged at
tack
The towns attacked are all within
seven miles of each other, and lie in a
narrow valley on the banks of the Tug
river, which here separates West Vir-
ginla from Kentucky. The firing to-
day and tonight came from the noun
tains on both sides of the river. ac-
cording To the state police.
Captain Brockus' force concentrated
in the mountains on the West Virginia
side while county officials here got
| into touch with the officials of Pike
county, Kentucky, in an attempt to OBJ
ain cooperation in routing the attack
ers from the Kentucky side.
Terror reigned in the towns in the
zone of fire as night fell and it was,
learned the authorities had failed TO
apprehend any OF the attacking force.
