ADvERTIsEMENT

A RE you ready for your summers
outing at the seashore or in the
mountains? Are your sports hats,
sweaters, frocks, skirts spotlessly
clean? And how about your hus-
bands clothing, his white flannels,
his sport suits? If you have sent
them to Bargs', 1113 Chestnut Street,
I know you will be pleased with the
results. And don't forget that cloth
ing which becomes soiled during your
vacation may be sent to Bargs' by
Parcel Post and returned to you very
promptly. One is often more apt
to have some mishap befall ones
clothing away than at home. And
what a catastrophe is a spot on
favorite frock!
SOON you will be on the vacation
to which you have been looking
forward all the year. But think how
your good time will be ruined if you
break your glasses during the first
few days. Why not prepare for this
emergency by having an extra pair
made by Wall G. Ochs, Opticians,
1716 Chestnut Street? The cost of
duplicate spectacles or eyeglasses is
nothing compared to the inconven-
ience Of having to be without your
eyes; and an inexpensive pair will
answer the purpose if they are fitted
by Wall & Ochs' experts, who are
we'll qualified to give you the best
service.

statement at the Wardman Park
Hotel last night he was wildly
cheered by the 500 delegates from
all parts of the country attending
the convention here Of the Ameri-

The delegation cheered every
mention of De Valera and the Irish
republic and applauded every de-
nunciation of the Irish Free State
and its supporters.
Mr.. Stack. who was introduced
by Chairman John Larkin Hughes
as "a man who fought in the 1919
rebellion" minced no words in his
denunciation of The Irish Free State.
"Going to Hell for Collins,

he said. They told me they voted
for IL because they would 20 to

HARRISON SCORES
RECENT NOMINEES
OF ADMINISTRATION
Claims GOldstein and
Cole Involved in Cam
paign Fund Scandals.

Denouncing the action of Presi-
dent Harding in nominating Nat
Goldstein, to he revenue collector
at st. Louis. Senator Harrison, Of
Mississippi. told the Senate yester-
day that other Missouri politicians
involved in the preconvention cam
paign fund scandals Of 1920 had
been rewarded with Federal jobs.
Senator Harrison aroused inter-
est when he stated that w. l.. Cole
has been made special assistant to
Attorney General Daugherty. Mr.
cole was formerly Republican State
chairman of Missouri and was a
delegate to the Republican Nation
al Convention at Chicago in 1920.
Senator Harrison read to the Sem
ate extracts from the record of the
hearings before the Senatorial cam
paign fund Investigating commit
tee, showing that Cole received $500
from agents of Frank o. Lowden,
candidate for the Presidential nom
ination. and later accepted S1,25o
from Attorey General Daugherty,
then acting as Mr.. Harding's cam
raign manager.
Reports were in circulation
about the Senate that President
Harding would be asked to with
draw the nomination of Goldstein
a delegate to the Chicago conyen-
ton, who admitted on the eve of
the convention that he had received
S2,500 from agents of Frank o.
Lowden. The President acted upon
the recommendation of Senator
Spencer,and some Republican Sena-
tors took the view that Mr.. Harding
had been grossly imposed upon. It
was considered highly probable that
the Senate would reject the Gold
stein nomination IL 1t was reported
favorably by the Finance Commit
tee.
when friends of Mr.. Harding
called his attention yesterday to
criticism Of the Goldstein appoint
ment the President is reported to
have replied that the Executive
never boasts of nor apologies for
his appointments.
Senator Harrison served notice
that he would make every effort to
have a roll-call on confirmation.

Republican leaders in the Senate

The bill has been the unfinished
business of the Senate for more
than two weeks, but little prog

introduced all sorts of extraneous
subjects for consideration. and
leaders are becoming restless at
the delays.
IF Senators are going to insist

can meet the situation. That is to
insist that we shall have not only
day sessions. but also night ses-
sions." said Senator McCumber

he would not ask night sessions

In similar actions appellants have
asked for a review OF the findings
of the trial board and the decision
of the District Commissioners. The

siders a reprimand. to a finding OF

should the court fail to uphold
