COAL PRIORITY
B|EL FACED BY

Senate Committee Reports
Measure Out Without Making
Any Recommendations.

international News Service.

Strong opposition to the Admin
istration bill to give the Interstate
Commerce Commission blanket au-
thority to establish priorities and
embargoes to prevent the "exaction
of unreasonably high prices" for
coal again prevented favorable ac-
ton on it today by the Senate In
terstate Commerce Committee.
Although a majority of the COM
mittee members, both Republicans
and Democrats, refused 10 indorse
the bill, 1t was agreed that the bill
should be reported and flung into
the Senate so that it could be
threshed out in the open"
Senator Watson Of Indiana, Ad-
ministration spokesman, stated that
he was not particularly enthusi-
astic" about the bill and that It
was his intention when 1t is con-
sidered by the Senate to urge that
"the only way to meet the indus
trial situation effectively, and to
prevent a recurrence Of strikes in
the coal industry, is by anti-strike
legislation"
Senators Underwood Of Alabama,
Pomerene of Ohio, and Myers Of
Montana were among the Demo
cratic committee members who op-
posed the bill and reserved the
right to fight it on the Senate floor
when Senator Cummins Rep) Of
Iowa, the committee chairman, was
finally authorized to report with
out a record vote.
While Senators turned a cold
shoulder to the bill, Secretary
Hoover appeared before the House
Interstate Commerce Committee
and made a personal appeal for the
enactment Of a similar measure
which Congressman Winslow Rep)
of Massachusetts, introduced. Secre-
tary Hoover was questioned closely
about the real purpose" Of the
bill, to which several Of the conf
mittee members also expressed op-
position.
Hoover declared a SERIOUS coal
famine" already exists and contend
ed the Administration should be
provided with every means posi-
BILE to meet it and prevent profit
eering in coal"

Numerous Delegations.
Following the cavalrymen were 500
members of the clergy, including
Archbishop Curley of Baltimore.
There were many priests and monks.
including the ascetic Franciscans,
with their coarse brown robes and
sandals. Soldiers from thirty-four
divisions marched in the line and
more than half a dozen civic and
military bands played funeral dirges.
The firing party marched with re.
versed rifles.
Escorting the gun carriage were
army commandants from Free State
headquarters staff. Following the
coffin came the favorite horse Of the
late commander-in-chie led by
cavalryman. Members Of the cabinet
and the Dali marched on foot. while
a single carriage bore the chief
mourners. After the carriage
trudged representatives Of civic
organizations, fraternals orders, and
trade unions.
A detachment of Free State In.
fantry brought up the rear, and
then came the general public.
Thousands were in line, the pro-
cession being more than a mile
long.
While the cortege was passing
the provisional government offices,
the guard turned out. The same
honor was paid while passing the
barracks formerly occupied by the
British army in Dublin.
The cemetery was jammed with
people. The services at the grave
were brief, and of a military char
acter. A squad from the guards
fired a volley. Comrade officers
lowered the coffin. Then buglers
blew the last post.

shadow Of the tombs Of O'Connell,

BLOND GIRL IS
BEING SOUGHT
BERGEN KILLING
Continued from First Page)

Continued from First Page)
Bergen himself had to say before
he died, he simply backed the man
up the stairs to the upper room at
the point of a revolver. and shot
him. To my mind that Is all there
is to the case.
II base my opinion on the fact
that II there had been any struggle
over the possession Of a revolver in
the possession of Bergen, as Cline
says in his own defense. II would
have been at very close quarters.
Bergen was shot down at some 1T
tie distance in the room because
there was not a powder mark or
scorch on his body or upon his
clothing.
THE bullet that killed Bergen
ranged downward through his
body, and 1t was fired from a dis.
tance of at least a foot or two
above him. My own belief is that
Bergen was either crouching to
get away from Cline or else that
he was on his knees pleading for
his life.
To Ask Early Trial.
Regarding the statement made
to me by Mrs. Cline, I am inclined
to believe It is possibly true that
she did make her confession of
what happened at Saranac Lake in
the presence OF both men, but as
to whether the attack she describes
actually took place, have been
unable so far to determine. am
not accepting any of these state
ments on the mere declaration Of
the principals.
I'VE have a plain case Of murder
in the first degree. a murder that
was planned in advance by an in
telligent man who knew Just what
he was doing.
II shall try to have this case
brought to almost immediate trial
and shall also try to have women
on the jury"
Miss Margaret walz, sister of
Cline, who did not change her name
did, arrived here last night. She
said:
MY brother did just what any
other man would have done under
the circumstances"
Mrs. Mary Scullion, mother Of Mrs.
Cline, said:
II love George as though he were
my own son. He married my daugh-
ter eight years ago and he has made
her kind, considerate and ideal hus-
band in every way.
Mrs. Cline Is Ill.
MY poor little daughter Is seri.
ously Ill as the result OF this terrible
happening, but I want to say that
my sons and my son-in- law believe
in protecting the honor Of their
women"
II was with the greatest difficulty
that Mrs. Cline was able to visit her
husband In prison. She arrived with
her head up and seemingly self-con-
fideht, accompanied by Miss Wall
After her interview with her hus.
