Columbia appropriation bill, carrying
substantially S20,400,O00 for the up
keep of the local government during
the fiscal year beginning July ! next.
All efforts to amend the bill in any
important particular failed, and the
measure was approved in virtually
the form in which it was reported by
Chairman Davis, Of the subcommlt-
tee which framed it.
Upon the supposition that so per
cent of the men who served with the
army and rs per cent of those who
served in the navy would take cash,
financial officers of the army, navy
and marine corps estimated to the
ways and means committee that the
soldiers bonus would cost the Federal
government approximately $780,,
100000.
At the White House it was stated
that President Harding is strongly OPP
posed to use of the bonds of foreign

soldiers bonus. Confidence was cx-
pressed that bonus legislation would
not include such use of the foreign
debt.

the result that Thompson went to his

his victim had met death in the hotel.
Seventy-two guests were registered

City officials stated today that a
building of the type of the Lexington

listing code, but the Building lnspec-
tor had no authority to require the
removal Of the old building nor it's re-

has the right to require changes in
theatres and places of public assembly
but has no such right over hotels,
though an extension of the ordinance
has been recommended several times.

HARDING ASKS
PROMPT ACTION
ON TREATIES
Confined from Page One.)

Senator Borah in public state
Tent urging ne-third reduction of
the army, started fighting again to-
day, and at about the same hour the
White House was warning against
too drastic cuts. 1t is quite possible
that a fight over the size of the army
and navy personel will develop that
will be as dramatic as the treaty
fights in the Senate.
The President warns against re-
duction of the personnel of the navy
below $4,000. 1t is now something over
100000. He has given no figures as to
the army, SO far as known. But as to
both the army and navy, he has told
those in his confidence that he very
earnestly hopes the reduction will not
be excessive. He looks for cuts in
both services, but he wants modera-
ton, and is expected to fight against
anything of a drastic nature.
