SEEKING MEANS
TO END TIE-UP

Tangle in Congress.

Special to Indiana Daily Times
'WSSHTTGTON. June 19.SThe Ldmin-
istration will undertake this week to
bring out Of the chaos into which the
legislative program has drifted through
acute hot weather primary panic on
Capitol Hill. The President is expected
TO determine the course he believes best
for national Hs well as party interests,
and to make his views clear to Congress,
but responsibility In the last analysis,
viii rest on House and Senate.
Chairman Campbell of the Rules Com
mittee, confronted with the most serious
nomination fight he has had in many
years, is trying to avoid further troubles
over the shipping bill. His opposition
has given him enough things to explain
without a ship subsidy bill to which his
Kansas farmers are hostile. Back OF
him Is a considerable body Of middle
western Republicans who would like to
have the LaSker bill go over until after
the turbulent primary season. Mr.. Camp
bell feels doubtlessly, the Administration
IS obliged to him for his part in killing
the House Investigation OF Attorney Gen
eral Daugherty.
PRESIDENT
NIGHT YIELD.
Mr. Harding Is believed TO be opposed
to the Campbell plan. although he might
yield 10 the postpOnement as a part Of
an agreed schedule Of legislative pro-
cedure between House and Senate. That
would embrace the tariff, bonus and ship
ping bills in the upper House. Much
might depend on the Senate's course.
There was TO be q Republican conference
Monday.
| Senator McCumber, having failed TO
get the bonus bill up IN the Senate be-
fore his North Dakota primaries. now he
| Is reassurlug himself his war veterans
win be satisfied with his lntest promise
to have the measure enacted before
! adjournment OF the present session and
his unqualified assertion Mr.. Harding Will
sign It regardless Of White House
promises Of disapproval.
The La Follette-Ashurst move TO dis
place the tariff for the bonus, following
passage OF the naval appropriation bill,
is calculated TO embarrass Republican
Senator's, who profess to be favorable to
the compensation legislation. There will
| be several days debate on the motion to
enable nervous Senator'S to state their
positions In a manner to persuade them
selves their course Is the logical one.
Not more than nine Republicans are
counted favorable to the La Toilette
Ashurst move. As the Democrats are not
united on it. the motion appears lost.
HARDING HAS
INFLUENTIAL GUESTS.
President Harding had Chairman Las
ker, Speaker Gillett and Attorney Gen
eral Dausherty aboard the Mayfiower on
week end cruise. 1t was believed the
chairman Of the shipping board and Mr..
Hardings chief political adviser would
go over with him the pros and cons of
tho Campbell plan for further delay on
the subsidy bill. With Republican
strategy in the Senate outlined by to-
days conference, the President might
be able on Thursday to see light on the
whole legislative situation and then to
outline to party leaders the best course
to follow.

MANY MEMBERS
ABSENT FROM
DUTY IN HOUSE
Republicans Fear to Push Ac-
ton on Ship Subsidy in
Face of Opposition.
PRIMARIES CAUSE FEAR

Special to Indiana Daily Times
and Philadelphia Public Ledger.
WASHINGTON, June 19.-With 30
many Republican leaders absent from
Washington that leaders have not been
able to obtain an accurate poll Of House
sentiment on the Administration ship
subsidy bill, members Of the majority
steering committee are anticipating with
concern Democrat flibuster, should the
measure be considered within two weeks.
With any number of minority members
remaining away from the chamber, they
fear 1t would be extremely difficult to
maintain q quorum.
Members whose political fortunes are
at stake in approaching primaries and
who feel a previous subsidy vote in the
House would but increase their difficult
ties were awaiting with anxiety today an
answer from the White House to the pro-
posal Of House leaders that subsidy ac-
tion be postponed until after the Senate
disposes with the tariff If President
Harding insists on action before the
House recesses to wait for submission Of
the tariff, leaders will be forced to call
upon many members to return to the
capitol. 1t is pointed out that the tens
per Of men thus forced to leave their pri-
mary campaigns would not likely be
favorable to the measure which necessi.
tated the trip.
EXPECT DEMAND
FROM HARDING.
Conservative opinion in the steering
committee. howevere, believes that Presi-
dent Harding will demand consideration
Of the subsidy before the recess. Pro-
ponents Of the Administration bill on
the committee expect postponement
would mean another shipping board de-
ticiency appropriation and fear delay
would bring a loss Of votes when the
best canvass obtainable indicates a very
close fight.
Acquiescence Of House leaders If the
President insists on immediate action
was predicted by one member Of the
committee, who said he had noted that
members. with one exception, were cares
full not TO commit themselves so indef-
nitely against immediate consideration
as not to be able to fall In line with
White House demands.
SEES No REASON
To FEAR DELAY.
81 see no reason to fear delay until aft
er the recess" he said, Except for the
fact that some Of the Middle Western
members who are afraid Of this subsidy
are not prepared, to present it in the
right light TO their constituents. Many
former members are ready to vote for the
subsidy now that It has agricultural or=
ganization Endorsement
with an expensive Government mere
chant marine it is the opportune time to
get congressional sanction to assistance
/ to private enterprise And yet of mem~
bers whose districts are recognized as
opposed to a ship subsidy visit their
homes and do not give their constituents
the facts, we may expect delay to bring
back to the capitol Representatives afraid
to support the subsidy although they
honestly believe IN it."

RUDE RURAL RHYMES
Corn

Corn
 From southern wales the corn plant came from lands of gold and Aztec fame where long it held an honored place in gardens of a vanished race. With gleeful grins the seed we drop, with honest pride we pick the crop, the flint and dent, the sweet and pop. Dame Nature formed it long ago, a giant grass in Mexico. From tribe to tribe the gift we passed. It reached our northern land at last, to serve the early settlers need, sturdy staff of life indeed; to swell with grain the Yankee cribs and pad with fat their lanky ribs. Still. on our tables it appears, and in the form of roasting ears against our rugged features pressed, it spreads them out from east to west. A noble food, but what a pity the way we eat it is not pretty. We gnaw it off in gulps and gobs, and on our plates we pile the cobs. Between the ears we hard ly pause to wipe the butter from our jaws. When sweet corn yearly waves its banners we give vacations to our manners.

RORABACK'S VICTORY

The contest over the chairman ship of the republican state central committee is virtually over. Enough candidates favorable to the re-elec- tion of Chairman Roraback have already been named for the new committee to give him majority of the full membership. Such selec- tions as remain5 to be made ;n city districts will be important only as they affect the size of the majority.
 "The Courant" has never had any doubt about the final result and evidently Mr. 'Roraback has not lost any sleep over it. 1t must have re- quired a great deal of fortitude, however, to remain silent after some of the things that have been said, and it is to MT. Roraback's credit that he did not reply to the mud-sfingihg and abuse to which he was subjected, even though it came from individuals about whom much could be said. This is the mark by which gentlemen and clean fighters are distinguished, and that it impresses the public may be inferred from the result.
 The chairman's manly statement, after the district caucuses of Satur- day "that such unfortunate incidents as have occurred have been entirely forgotten" paves the way for those who have opposed him to turn to and help elect the ticket this fall. D. It shows the chairman's first interest to be in the success of the republi- can party, and, through it, the state government. Undoubtedly, the same interest is what caused men of the type of ex-Governor Holcomb to enter caucus contests in his behalf. ;
 Connecticut is a good old state to live in, after all has been said. It is remarkably free from political scan dals. Few states have as good laws none are perfect-and it is upon legislation that the influence of the republican party is chiefly felt. Con- necticut is republican state. Rora- backs victory is the states victory. : It augurs we'll for the success of the republican state ticket in November. Hartford Courant.

ELIMINATING THE BARK"

If your heighbor has dog that snaps at and bites folks, he is usually muzzled or disposed of. In the for ner case personal safety is assured. but the dog can still cause more or less annoyance with his barking about the time when you want to rest. The problem of low to let the dog IF C. yet eliminate the bark, still remains unsolved.
 In the case of certain labor unions, however, both the bite and bark have been eliminated, to the constGraat;on of men and women all over the country. Yet the unions still live. That is the strange part Of it. The cause is the railroad shopmen's strike The effect is crippled trans portation facilities and the result is the issuance of an injunction, which, according to one union official "pro- hibits union men from breathing"
 Specifically, the restraining order forbids picketing, lettering, threaten ing, taunting or annoying railroad men at their work or in their homes. Also from using funds to carry on the strike, holding strike meetings or issuing statements to newspapers dealing with the conduct of the strike. Furthermore, they must not direct the progress of the strike in any written or oral manner whatso- ever. In other words the striking men must conduct themselves in sach manner as would indicate they had never heard of the strike.
 Thus has it been found possible tc eliminate both "bark" and "bite'' yet still retain life. At least in re- gard to labor unions. Yet it remains to be seen whether or not the cure is permanent, which if so pronounced will either cause a comatose condi. tion until restrictions are removed or death itself, to unionism generally Neither of these conditions are de sirable. Unlimited powers for either organized labor or organized capital means autocracy in one form or another.
 Labor saw it's strength during the past several years, and has used it Capital thought it knew it's rejuvin' ated strength, in comparison, during the past few months and attempted to use it. In both insances it is more or less a case of using brawn instead of brains. ..@. ....
