The sweeping landslide for Martin

indication that In the minds OF the
people the courthouse fight has ceas.

The successful candidates appeal.

for the grounds OF personal quallfi-

haps. But the wide breach OF bal
lots seems to leave no room for un-

useless quarrel.
The logical conclusion TO draw Is
that the time Is ripe for settleient.
Let's quit now. The shore Is In

We trust one side will not be, stir
red by defeat TO plan retaliation We
trust the other will not esteem We

use OF their advantage in having the
backing OF public sentiment. Pub

And the bed was big and roomy and

Do YOU hear that funny buzzing

Santa Claus getting ready for his
dash around the world tomorrow
night from Toyland. Thunder and
Bitten and all of the other tiny rein
deer st. Nick uses to draw his sleigh
have been snugly tucked away in
their stalls around the north pole
because the weather man says there
will be no snow this Christmas. Sc
Santa has been figuring on using a
big airplane instead of his sleigh.
Disappointing as that seems. it is
an absolute fact, our CHEEKY prognos-
ticator says. Not only are the
chances for a white Christmas negli-
gible, but he expects Washington to
be warmer Monday, perhaps almost
temperate. The sun will likely shine
all day, however, and all good. little
boys and girls who get doll carriages
or express wagons from Kris kringle

to their hearts content.

MOSCOW, December 23.-Santa
Claus is apt to find Christmas
little to his liking in the princi-
pal cities and towns of soviet
Russia this year: in fact, to the
young communists he will be per
soma non grata." Members of that
organiZa ton. contending that
Christmas and st. Nicholas both
are worn out myths. have an
nounced that the celebration of
the Russian Christmas. beginning
January s. will be marked by
series of elaborate carnivals, in
which Santa Claus will be as
signed no part. They have further
decided that the singing of Christ
mas carols will be dispensed with
and that the figure of an angel
may not be displayed on a Christ
mas tree appearing in public.
Instead the celebration calls for
torchlights. masked balls, dinner
parties and gay theater perform
ances day and night. together with
various other forms of amusement
designed to suppress and offset
any religious ceremonies. The
young communists contend that
Christmas legends have fooled
children and their elders long
enough and that every one should
know better.

Senator Curtis of Kansas. chairman
of the Senate rules committee and re-
publican whip. issued strict orders to
the sergeant-at-arms of the Senate
today to arrest any person soliciting
orders for liquor in the Senate wing
of the Capitol or in the Senate Office
building.

a tinkle of glass. One of the walters.
rushing across the floor with a nap
kin over his arm. had dropped d
bottle of whisky A concerted rush
toward the wet spot on the part of
the walters resulted in the evidence
being mopped up almost before those
present knew what had happened.
Senator Curtis declaration follows
published reports recently that a
bootlegger was soliciting orders for
various kinds of intoXicants just out
side the Senate chamber, while on the
floor senator was pleading for an
increased appropriation for the en-
forcement of prohibition.
Senator Curtis said today that no
influence however strong. would pro-
tect a bootlegger hereafter from ar
rest and prosecution if he invades the
Senate end of the Capitol or the Sen
ate office building.
President Harding had before him
today a letter from Representative
Upshaw of Georgia. democrat. urging
him to issue a Christmas proclama-
ton, calling on citizens and officials
to respect the prohibition laws. Mr..
Upshaw was in Georgia. and the
white House did not make public his
letter. which follows a sensational
speech in the House. in which Mr.
Upshaw, a dry called on the leaders

a new oath of allegiance to the Con-

Quiet Christmas Planned at

Christmas will be observed very
quietly at the White House.
The famous old home has been at

wreaths and other greens and flowers

will be no house guests for the holi-
days, although it is expected a num-
Der of the Presidents and Mrs. Har-
'ding's very close friends will caIl in
formally during the day.
What is looked upon as the happiest

ed at Pre-Holiday
Session.

The District Commissioners today Y
announced the personnel OF the traf-
fic committee which isto study all of
Washinston's street problems.
1mbued with the spirit of Christ
mas, they voted in board session to
restore the operating permits of
thirtyfour motorists whose identifi-
cation cards were revoked during the
year for violation of the traffic rules.
DIR. George NJ. Boteler health officer
of st. Joseph. Mo. was appointed as
sistant health officer of the District,
at S2.140 per annum. In recommend
ing this appointment, Health Officer
Fowler told the commissioners that
DR.. Boteler has been in charge of the
health department of St. Joseph for
ten years.
Traffic Rules Adopted.
The city heads adopted the proposed
traffic regulations requiring all out
of-town motorists to obtain a District
tag within three days of their arrival
The Commissioners decided, how
ever, not to charge a fee for these
tags. because practically all of the
states have free automobile reci-
procity with the District, and the
Commissioners did not wish to do
anything that would interfere with
such reciprocal arrangements. The
object of requiring tags is to enable
the traffic bureau to have complete
record of all cars in operation in the
District all the time.
1t was voted to grant 50 per cent
increase today in pay to all per diem
workers, such as garbage and ash
collectors. who will be required to
work this afternoon All other Dis
trict employees were relieved at /
O'Clock, and the Commit sSioners felt
that some special consideration was
due the men whose services were
required today.
Another Christmas token was ex-
tended by the board Of Commission
ers in the form of an amendment to
the fire department manual permit
ting firemen to smoke in the appa-
ratus room of all engine houses in
which there is no sitting room On
the ground floor.
In a report that will be forwarded
to Congress the Commissioners stated
that all safeguards should be pro-
vided to regulate unincorporated CO.
investment institutions in Washing
ton. The report is being made on a
bill pending in the Senate which
would place such institutions under
the controller of the currency. The
Commissioners suggest to Congress
that the bill should also be referred
to the Treasury Department for the
expression of the views of that
branch of government.
