SUBSIDY MEASURE
RASDARK OUTLOOK
House Republicans See Pres
ident About Difficulty of
Action.

President Harding's effort yester-
day to speed UP consideration of the
administration's ship subsidy bill
started food of discussionsin House
republican circles as 10 the prospect
Of action on the measure prior to ad-
journment of Congress.
At a White House conference with
House leaders the President was in
formed that the bill probably would
be ready for submission TO republican
members of the merchant marine
committee the latter part of this
week but that many republicans were
not disposed to take up new legisla-
sion.
The leaders, Ii was understood
frankly told the President there Sas
opposition to subsidy legislation
among republicans from middle west
ern states and that there was the
certainty of almost solid democratic
opposition 1t was explained TO the
President that while some republi-
cans classsd now as doubtful felt that
the measure should be passed. they
were faced with the quandary OF
voting for it in view of reported op-
position to ii among their constitu-
ents.
The upshot of the informal discus
sion among House leaders as gather
ed in private conversations was that
it was extremely doubtful whether
the bill could be put through the
House until the December session
after the November elections.
One of the members with whom
the President talked-a strong aoVo-
cate of the BILLS said to have told
Mr.. Harding that once the bill is re
ported it will be necessary for him
to get behind the leadership and de
mand its prompt passage as party
measure

JEFFERSON DAVIS
Senator Harrison Pleads for
General Recognition Of
Southerner's Service.

Glowing tribute to the life and
services of Jefferson Davis was paid
by Senator Pat Harrison of Missis-
sippf in an address last night at
Mount Vernon Place Methodist
Church when the anniversary of the
birth Of the president of the Con-
federacy was observed BY joint serv-
ices of the several organizations of
the Sons and Daughters Of the Con-
federacy.
Senator Harrison characterized Davis
as the greatest man who ever adorned
the annals Of Mississippi and the
south's acknowledge leader"
Senator Harrison expressed the
pleasure that it gave to him as one
of the representatives from the south
to vote for appropriations that made

Abraham Lincoln.
South Admires Lincoln.
The south appreciates the splen-
did qualities and lofty virtues of
Abraham Lincoln and has come to be-
lieve that those dark and never-to-be-
forgotten days of reconstruction, the
memory Of which still clings like a
nightmare over the whole southland.

not been for his inopportune death
But" he said. II cannot understand
the justice or fairness Of that philoso-
ply of those who would have the
people of the south to forgive and
forget, while others in another Sec
tion still hold prejudice bordering
almost upon malignity against the
man whose memory we commemorate
tonight-the leader of a lost but
glorious cause-a cause founded upon

The south appreciates it's tradi-
tions, and will ever cling stead
fastly to Its history. Sentiment is
and always will be dear to our people,
and hope the day will hasten when
country will ascribe to the leaders
of the other the same estimate of
the virtues and qualities of its
leaders as they expect to be accorded
their own.
Service Long and Glorious.
Few men in the history of our
country rendered longer and greater
service to it than did Jefferson Davis.

signed his seat as a member of Con-
gress from his beloved state that he
might serve his country on the plains
of Mexico. The glory won by him
at Buena Vista will ever be a living
testimonial of his splendid military
qualities. The best years of his life
were served in the Senate of che
United States and as Secretary of War.
why should generous and fair
people withhold just estimate at this
time of the leader of q cause when
they have forgiven and forgotten, ali
others who participated in that
cause?
"As one who loves every memory

negroes were taken into custody be-
cause Of alleged connection with the
murder of a seventeen-year-old girl
which resulted in the lynching of four
negroes. He declared there was no
formal charge against the Gibsons and
that deputies sought them to investi-
gate an alleged attempt by white men
to whip Leroy. The intention of the
officers evidently was misunderstood,
he declared, and shots were fired at
the deputies who replied.
Negroes Hide I'm Trees.
THE negroes in the community are
behaving themselves and I don't anti

sheriff declared. Their attitude seems
to be one of fear toward the whites
rather than one Of defiance"
