the front and sides. The Art Commits
sion merely gave as an excuse for its
refusal to allow City Hall to be decked
out completely in bright new paint
that its artistic aspect would be i'm
paired.
"The building is very dirty" said
Borough President Miller, "and want
ed to paint it all over, front as we'll as
back. l discovered, however, that una
der the charter the Art Commission
has certain jurisdiction and they would
not permit the painting of the front
and sides Of the structure.
"They did, however, permit me to
paint the north side. They withheld
their permission to the painting of the
south side or front, on the ground
that it would detract from its artistic
qualities and detract from It's original
Colonial suggestiveness."
The attitude of the Art Commission
in the matter is so firm that the hopes
of the thrifty souls who have noticed
the weather stains on Civic Virtue and
talked of supplying him with an artis-
tic stone umbrella to hold over his
shoulder instead Of sword were COM
pletely dashed.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 22-~The sec
ond, or regular, long session of the
9th Congress adjourned without date
at 2 o'clock this afternoon. Actually,
the Senate was Ave minutes late in
quitting, and the clocks in the Senate
chamber were put back five minutes to
harmonize with the resolution calling
for adjournment at o'clock.
President Harding, following the
usual custom, went to the Presidents
room in the Capitol at 1;45 for the
purpose of signing last-minute bills.
He remained four minutes after
o'clock, and then returned to the
White House. While at the Capitol he
signed six measures, chief of which
was the deficiency appropriation bill.
A large number of Senators, Republi-
can and Democratic, greeted him in
the Presidents room, and he and SEN
ator Underwood had a conference of
some minutes together.
The close of the session was COM
paratively uneventful. In the House
there waS only thin line of the MEM
bership present. In the Senate there
was bare quorum.
The Liberian loan bill and the Dyer
anti-lynching bill, which had been
urged by a number Of the Republican
leaders, both failed of enactment in
the last hours of the session. 1t has
been plain for some days that they
could not be enacted in the face Of
opposition that was ready to take the
form of tilibuster
The chief business Of the day was
the disposition Of the deficiency ap-
preparation bill, carrying upwards of
100000. This was agreed to early
in the day by the conferees of the two
houses, and then passed by the House
and Senate. One of its features is
100000 for relief Of Americans who
suffered at Smyrna.
The Senate Immediately after 1t met
at noon held long executive session
and disposed of large array of nomi-
nations, including postoffice, diplo-
matte and other appointments.
Senator Harrison, OF Mississippi, in
a speech declared the second session
of the Sixty-seventh Congress was
closing ain shroud of disappoint
ment, Of failure and broken pledges;
in an orgy Of extravaganza and reck-
less disregard of economy"
Senator Smoot also made speech,
in which he lauded the work of the
session. Senator Mcclellan, Of Tennes-
see, condemned the work Of the ses
sion as heartily as Senator Smoot COM
mended it.
With the closing of the session it is
the general understanding that the
President will call Congress back about
November 15 in extra session for the
purpose Of taking up subsidy and trans
portation matters. However, there has
been no formal and final decision to do
this, according to the leaders, and some
of them have advised the President

to add information about them to the
sum of human knowledge: Miss
Helen Heinly of the Department of
Agriculture, Washington, D. c. has
been detailed to assist DR.. Gotthold
Steiner of Berne University, Re-
search Fellow at Yale, in micros-
|popic study of the Nemotode, de-
scribed as an animal that annually
does millions of dollars worth of
damage to plants and vegetables.
These tiny worm-like animals are
to be found in human beings as well
as in the earth. There are 40 or so
varieties in humans. Ten per cent
are classed as predatory, that is they
eat animals while 1.-THE remaining
ninety per cent eat vegetation.
DR. Steiner and Miss Heinly are
to study means of reproduction of
predatory type SO they will eat the
plant eaters and eradicate them. One
predatory type will eat 80 types of
u the vegetable eaters.
The plant nematodes anchor to a
root of a vegetable and eat the sub
stance there causing it to wither. A
great colony makes a root knot.
The laboratory work will be to find
the best conditions suited to the
growth of tie predatory nematode.
DR.. Steiner came to Yale from
Switzerland to study this nematode.
He has raised male and female, or
brought about what scientists call a
mutation The progeny of the new
female type retain the characteristics
of the parent.

been called to other public matters.
Among the recent bills introduced in
the Senate is one to require moon
sinners to attach whistles that can
to blow them every thirty minutes
from / a. m. until II p. m.
Scantily-clad summer boarders are
given as the reason for the passage
of the anti-bathing suit bill. The
principle industry of White Mills is
entertaining summer guests. Its main
asset is small river and swimming
is its great outdoor sport.
But the bath house facilities con-
sist of willow trees under whose
dropping branches one may park the
|bathrobe. These facilities, however,
have failed to appeal to the visitors,
which include a goodly number of
young women. Representative Chas.
Ia. Nelson noticed this and he told
the Legislature that youth of his vii
|lage home is being corrupted by the
|sight of women clad only in bathing
|suits strolling down the street to the
river. The vote was sc to 20, not
|withstanding the fact that Represen-
tative James Park, former big league
baseball player, called the bill an
effort to legislate the morals of the
people and said the average bathing
suit contains more material than the
average evening dress. The bill had
been reported fayorably by the Al
coholic liquors committee; to which
it was referred.
Senator Bannie Tabor of Carter

ator Tabor, in his bill, consisting of
