THREE MONEY BILLS
PASSED BY SENATE
Word From Harding Spurs Up
Leaders to Hurry Appro-
priatiOn Measures.
Special Despatch to THE New YORK HERALD.

Special Despatch to THE New YORK HERALD.
New York Herald Bureau.
Washington, ID. C., Feb is.
Evidences were manifest in the Senate
to-day that the appeal of President-elect
Harding that Congress dispose Of the
appropriations in this session is getting
results. Republican leaders are speed
ing up all appropriation bills and not
only put through the post office appro-
priation bill in short order but approved
also the diplomatic and consular appro-
priation bill practically without debate.
A short lived fight was made to in
clude authorization of s100,000,000 for
Federal road building as rider to the
post office supply bill, but a motion to
set aside the rules for this purpose was
defeated Al to 33. or considerably less
than the two-thirds required. After this
fight ended the rest of the bill was
quickly approved and sent to confer
ence The deficiency bill also was
passed
The Senate approved the proposal that
the President accept the house of ]. p
Morgan in London as the residence OF
the American Ambassador. and also pro-
vided for acquiring diplomatic residences
Paris. Rome, Brussels. Berlin, Athens
Belgrade. Bucharest Prague, Monrovia.
Vienna, Budapest, Canton, Hankow and
Annoy. with an appropriation of $500. 1000
for the purpose. Both these were added
as amendments to the diplomatic bill
An amendment of Importance in the
regula ton of foreign immigration also
was approved BY unanimous vote the
Senate extended indefinitely the pro-
visions OF the war law under which
American consuls shall wise passports of
immigrants to America. Special atten-
ton was given to this by Representa-
tive Harrison (Miss). who mentioned
that ii Is designed to give a check upon
foreign immigration.
Another evidence that speed is to be
made on bills was indicated by an agree
ment to make the immigration bill the
unfinished business in the Senate After
this was done the Senators in charge OF
the measure permitted 1t to be laid aside
temporarily for the consideration OF the
appropriation bills
One reason assigned for haste was
mat advices had been received from
Senator Watson Gnd), who is now
with Mr.. Harding in Florida. to the ef-
feet that the date of the extra session
has been definitely fixed for April T.
Many Senators had been proceeding on
the theory. ii was said to-day. that the
session would be called earlier than this
date. so that appropriation bills which
fail would have that much additional
time for consideration.
In view of the later date mentioned
Il was thought that extra pressure
should be exerted TO wind up all rou-
tine business OF the present Congress.

Spirited discussions marked the trans
formation from the old to the new. each
step being subject to many speeches and
careful analysis of the convention lead
ers. The latter were determined that
the machinery created eight years ago
to work for the REIMBURSEMENT of
women should not pass into control of
radical or militarist hands.
The first fight developed when the
minority opinion OF the resolutions COM

immediate work should be In behalf Of
disarmament rather than the purely
feminist programme urged by the ma
jority committee members. Finally.
after a prolonged oral mannuvre. 1t
was voted to accept the latter and re-
ject the disarmament proposal.
Discussions covered q wide range, in

fore the Senate committee investigating
the condition of the Bank of North Da-

ment Of funds.

creased $27. 900. 900 during 1920. he said.
and bills payable increased $500. 900.
At present the reserve is about 59.4 per
cent. of what II should be, he pointed
out. and blamed this on the fact that the
people have been living on their sur
plus.

dependent Voters Association and the
rejection of which by the Non-Partisan
Senate may form the basis for a recall
election. according to independents. were
formally introduced in the house OF

Suspected Tire Thieves
Caught In Baca County

Three weeks ago, thieves
went to the cellar of Joe
Shown and after. pushing his
Ford car out into the field,
stripped it of everything that
was removable. They took the
tires, rims. windshield, coils
and other Ford accessories and
efforts have been made since
that time to trace the stolen

tions and had certain woman
watched in the southeastern

from the Shown car, as dis
carded rims and winshield
