HARRISON TO BE
RESENTENC CED

Ira Harrison may be brought be-
fore Judge Mauldin this mocrning to
be resentenced. The Richland crimin-
al court will convene at sac o'clock
for the last days session and If the
remittitur in the Harrison case reach
es Clerk Hinnant before adjournment
hour, the young prisoner will be SEN
fenced to die in the electric chair.

Frank Jeffords and Glenn Treece for
killing j. c. Annette, business part
ner of Jeffords, and 1eRords and Har-
rison were given death sentences.
Treece is serving q life term. Jeh-
ords has been resentenced to die De-
cember %.
Harrison 'sattorney 8 made a move
before the supreme court to take an
appeal to the United States supreme
court, but lost the motion. The re-
mittiture in his case was withheld
from the Richland county court Of
ficials until the motion was decided.
If the remittiture appears at the
court house this morning, Harrison
will be sentenced for the second time.
Richland county officers were ready
yesterday to act in the event that the
important legal instrument was filed
at the court house.
Attorneys for Jeffords and Harri-
son exhausted their legal fight in the
state courts and efforts were made to
get to the United States supreme
court on a writ of error. The move
ment was frustrated by the state su
preme court and a direct appeal to
the United States court is the only
avenue left through which the pris-
oners may hope for an extension OF
life through legal channels.-The

DRY FORCES WIN
FIGHT in HOUSE

Washington, Dec. 8.-Friends of
prohibition, in complete control in
the house, made a clean sweep today
in knocking out amendments to the
prohibition section Of the treasury
supply bill which, they claimed, were
designed to weaken enforcement OF
the Volstead law.
Standing alone at times, Repre-
sentative Hill (Republican) Of Mary
land sought to limit the money spend
ing activities Of the prohibition unit,
but his proposals were thrown out
bodily after 80 minutes Of bitter de-
bate in which the manner Of the laws
enforcement was commended and con-
demned. Numerous references were
made to the annual address to con-
gress delivered earlier in the day by
President Harding, and there was
vigorous applause when members re-
called that the president had said the
18th amendment was here to stay.
The bill stood like stone wall
against attacks by Mr.. Hills group,
which often included only himself.
1t had not reached the point Of pass
age tonight because of an agreement
to defer until tomorrow action on a
provision for substituting fast power
presses for hand presses on which
the governments money long has
been printed at the bureau of engrav-
ing.
The biggest vote against the pro-
hibition group was seven, that num-
ber of members supporting an amend
ment by Representative Tinkham
(Republican) of Massachusetts,, pro-
viding that men employed in en-
forcement work should be appointed
from the civil service, against 66 in
opposition.
Representative Tincher (Republi-
CAM of Kansas declared the Hill
amendments were in keeping with
the attitude of those who bad at
tempted to defeat prohibition en-
forcement. He said he did not know
why Mr.. Hill should object If the
Ku Klux Klan tried to suppress moon
shining.

TIGER COMFORTED
BY PRESIDENT

Washington, Dec. 8 (By the Asso-
ciated. Press) s).-Georges Clemenceau,
closing his visit to Washington this
afternoon with formal" address,
expressed the hope that diplomacy
would find way to bring America
back into European affairs through
what he interpreter as an Overture"
by President Harding in the annual
message the executive had read to
congress few hours earlier.
81 was greatly comforted," said tho
war time premier Of France, when
l read in the message of your presi-
dent the following lines. They are
not very long, but they are very sug-
gestive:
"'The four power pact, which abol-
ishes every probability of war on the
Pacific, has brought a new confidence
in maintained peace, and can well
believe it might be made a model
for like assurances wherever in the
world any common interests are con-
cerned.'
$50 you see," continued the Tiger,
"that even those who are supposed
to disagree, really agree at the very
bottom of their feeling and reasoning
power. That is what ask, and I
hope this is something like an over
ture, that some light will be coming,
and I will be very glad if it comes
from America and hope that diplo-
macy will have something to say
about it, and talks may be engaged in,
which, 1 am sure, can bring nothing
but good for us ALL"
When Clemenceau's reference to
the presidents message was called to
the attention of the White House, it
was said that there was no commen.
to be made and that there was no in
ention of celebrating on the presi-
dents statement to congress.
Clemenceau's address, delivered be-
: fore an audience, which included
many diplomats, government officials
. and members of both houses of con.
gress, was, in it's essence the peace
message" he first delivered at Chi
> cago. But apparently sensing tha
oficia Washington would Judge hin
and his mission by this speech, p
{ spoke delibkrately and chose ~

Assertion that France could not pay:
those Of. Germany, and argued that
America should help to make Ger
many pay. =
M. Clemenceap asked why the Unit
ed States went to war; whether
was to help France or to make de-
mocracy safe. If it was for the lat.
ter reason, he asked that the United
States look afar and see the barba-
rism of the Turks and the anarchy
of Russia.

train shortly after o'clock to go TO

amended BY ham3tringing the en-
forcement unit. Mr.. Crampton~ss-
serted that the fight had been brought
to the house on the heels OF the
splendid appeal of the president, ana
Mr.. Hill interjected that while In the
senate Mr.. Harding had stated the
American people had the right to re-
peal any law. "Any association mas
the right to attempt to repeal law
Mr.. Champion shot back, 'but so long
as that law remains in effect IL II
the duty of every American to strlv'
to make it effective"
The only purpose sought by TN
association, Mr.. Champion went on
was not to repeal the Volstead Law
but to destroy it by indirection. Tax
ing issue with statements that tn
prohibition forces had suffered hous
losses in the November election, M
!, Crampton said thot out Of the 30 ~
publican seats lost, the net dry io'
was only nine.
Representative Thorpe (Republ
can) of Nebraska, elected for II

was proud to vote with the friends
