Jews Meet to Organize
For Their w orld Congress

The executive committee Of the
American Jewish Congress held a
SPECIAL meeting yesterday in Hotel
Pennsylvania to discuss the organiza-
tion of American Jews for the forth
coming world Jewish Congress.
DR.. Stephen s. Wise presided. He
recently spent three months abroad in
vestigating the economic conditions
Of the Jewish people in Palestine, Eng
land, France, Germany and Austria, and
found the life of the Jews in Palestine
particularly distressing and IN Austria
almost unbearabie.
In summing up his report DR.. Wise
said the Palestine opportunity would
be hopeIessly lost unless the Jews 4f
ali lands formed congress not only
to determine what shall be done but to
act at cnce on all sound suggestions.
Regarding the Arab situation he
found that complete dependence can
be placed in the statesmen admiris-
traitors, Sir Herbert Samuel and Sir
W;ndham Decides, as they will tolerate
no uprising against the government,

In applying for the injunction

May Delay Expected Veto
Senators, H wever. Say

Bill Will Come Tuesday
From The TrtDNne,s washsngton Bureau

From The Tribnne's Washington Bareax
WASHINGTON, Sept. 17.-Represent-
atives Of service mems organizations
and related societies will make their
final drive to save the bonus bill from
the Presidential veto tomorrow after
noon when delegation headed by
Colonel Hanford MacNider, national
commander of the American Legion,
will call at the White House.
The interview with President Hard
ing was requested yesterday by Colonel
MacNider, who asked that action on
the bonus bill be delayed by the Presi-
dent until he could hear the represent
atives of soldiers organizations.
The delegation will lay before the
President tho unanimous petition of
growing out Of the World War, supple
mented by the support of the Grand
Army of the Republic, Spanish -Ameri-
can War veterans organizations and
nuxiliaries of other veteran bodies.
MacNiders Request Granted
The request of Colonel MacNider for
the interview was granted by the
President, who set 2:3o o'clock as the
ton. This new development in the
soldiers legislation question, it is be-
bcved, may delay the expected veto OF
the measure by the President, although
Senator'S who are close to the White
House continued tonight to insist
that the veto message will be presented
to the House not later than Tuesday
Supporting this view of definite deci-
sion on the bonus bill by the President
by Tuesday was the announcement to-
might that Secretary Of the Treasury
Mellon will return to Washington to-
morrow from his weekend visit in New
England. Heretofore thcTreasury head
has not returned to Washington until
believed, is for the purpose Of going
over the bonus bill as finally passed ir
order to give the President his advice
on the matter of sending it back tc
Congress with the Presidential veto.
The delegation Of soldiers organiza
tions is the most formidable that ha;
ever been gathered together in sup

er of the Disabled American Veteran;

Harding TO Veto Bonus

James B. Fisher, president of the
Brooklyn Real Estate Board, sent a
letter yesterday to President Harding
urging that he veto the soldiers
bonus bill and citing resolutions
adopted at meeting Of the board on
February ID, 1922.
The resolution opposes the bonus
measure or any similar legislation at
this time affecting any other than in
jured soldiers. 1t declares the finance
of the country do not at present permit
payment of bonus to ex-soldiers or
sailors who served in the war, and
adds:
This board is not opposed to any
measure of relief which our govern
ment can or will tender to those who
were injured or disabled in the World
War. The financial status Of the
country does not, however, permit the
payment Of any bonus to any but in
jured or disabled soldiers and no
scheme for general bonus payment
should be approved without first sub
mitting a sound plan providing for
the financing of such payments in
order that the people Of the United
States may pass on It's merits"

hospital bills for an operation that was
performed on Mrs. Mills last February.
The expenses at the hospital, Mrs.
Hall explained were betrayed at the
time by herself and her husband, ar
rangementS having been maze to that
effect with Mr.. Mills, who agreed that
the sum should be deducted little at
time from his wages as sexton. Mills
also was a janitor at the Lord Stirling
School, and between the two posts had
a steady though not large income.
Although Mrs. Hall said that she and
her brother found the church dark
when they reached it, presumably ten
or fifteen minutes after 2 o'clock,
Mills. who says he visited the edifice
in his search few minutes after 2,
says he entered the church and lighte d
the lights in an attempt to find his
wife.
Wife Ten Years Younger
He is small, nervous man, about
forty-four years old. His wife was
about ten years his junior as Mr.. Hall,
who was about Mr.. RIills's age, was, ten
years younger than his wife. Mr. Mills
is not only short, but slight and weighs
probably not more than lis pounds.
His face is bony and anxious, his hair
thin, his nose long and subject to
sensitive .quivers, his eyes pale blue,
and his chin retreats.
He was divided yesterday between
horror and grief and an almost absurd
sense of the responsibility which de-
volved upon him as one of the principal
figures in the mystery. 1t was not
without pride that he announced that
he had been "grilled" three times and
that the authorities were perfectly sat-
isfed with his alibi.
Although in reality he answered
every question put to him fully and
with apparent frankness, he always
seemed to be just on the point of de-
parture for some other place, where his
presence was earnestly desired. Once
he half turned to leave them with the
remark that his house was full of
company aid that they would think it
was queer he was not there to enter
tain them.
He asserted that gossip which con-
nected the names of his wife and Mr..
Hall was made up of malicious false
hood. The families were on the most
friendly terms, he said, and there was
relations between his wife and the
clergyman. She was leader of the
choir, he explained, and necessarily was
frequently in the company Of the rec
tor.
She was imaginative, romantic and a
great reader, Mr.. Mills continued, and
found an intellectual pleasure in the
companionship of Mr.. Hall, who was a
highly educated man. His wife read
almost constantly, he continued, and
obtained nest of her books from the
Hall library. What the books were,
he could not say.
Explains Her Notes
1t was evidently his opinion that
they were of kind to strengthen the
romantic vein in his wife, and he in
timated that she was probably trying
her hand at writing when she wrote

been expected. 1t was pointed out
that it would be useless for the

GAS RATE
TAKEN TO THE
FEDERAL COURT
Rule to Show Cause
Issued by j u d g e
Smith Against Sum-
ter City Council On
Petition of Sumter
Gas Company

The. gas rate controversy has
finally landed in the courts. toward
which il has been steadily drifting
for Several months, notwithstand-
ing the efforts Of disinterested citi-
zens to bring about an ADJUST
ment OF the dispute between City
Council and the Gas Company that
Mould protect the rights Of the
people Of Sumter, who are patrons
OF the gas company. and, at the
same time be just to the Sumter
Gas & Power Company and those
who have money invested in that
public service corporation.
The City Council and the Gas
Company having reached an i'm
passe In the controversy over what
is fair and Just rate to charge
for gas under existing conditions,
and point of agreement apparent
Is being impossible, the officials OF
the Sumter Gas 6 Power Co..
have assured the right to fix a
rate that they consider fair to the
stockholders of theiv company and
to their patrons, and have appeal
ed to tho federal court for protec-
ton in the exercise Of this right
that they a1fege to be necessary to
the continued operation Ct the
BUSINESS.
The people of Sumter arc fully
ACQUAINTED With the successive
and rarious stages in the gas rates
controversy and it is not necessary
to reeapitulate them.
zss,Il1a The whole matter was brought
~ ahead when City Council on
January sath fixed the rate OF
$3.50 gross or $50 net that the
gas company may charge its Gus
!. toners The gas company clanns
. that this rate is insufficient to pay
,ooperatin. expenses and reason
able. return on. the investment.
Tho whole matter is set forth IN
4. lengthy Bill of Complaint flied
in the federal court i'm Charleston
Tucsday in behalf OF the Sumter
Gas & Power Co, against The
city of Sumter ard L. D. Jen-
ninigs. its mayor, and D. r. Nc
caIIum and: J. A. Rafield. as men1-
bers composing its city council :
The complaint alleges that the
rate fixed by. the City Council is
insufficient to maintain the COM
PAM that "a reasonable and faiI
rate is $500 gross or $50 net
per thousand cubic feet, and
asks ,slat sthe company be pro
fected from interference by the
City Council in the collection OF
this rate, otherwise the compan,
VIII suffer irreparable loss and in

Council be- restrained and enjoin-
cd from, interfering with tho
company, IN the collection of the
rate. fixed bY The company.
The suit lis. brought under certain
clauses OF the Constitution Of the

vision that to the effect that nc
