DEBT REFUNDING
BILL APPROVED
Senate Committee Accepts 1t
After Striking Out Features
Mellon Opposed.

WAsHr.GToN, Jan. 16 The Allied
debt refunding bill was approved to-day
by the Senate Finance Committee after
most of the provisions objected to by
Secretary Mellon OF the Treasury De-
, partment, had been eliminated. Demo-
cratic members OF the committee voted
against the bill in its perfected FORM
Provisions previously written in by
the committee. which were stricken otu,
called for seni-annual interest pay
ments and for interest at n rate of no.
less than per cent. These were the
provisions against which the Treasury
objected on the ground that they would
handicap the administration in the re
funding negotiations with the foreign
governments.
Under these provisions interest pay
{ ments would have fallen due within six
months after the refunded bonds had
been negotiated, whereas tho Treasury
desired to have the authority to defer
interest payments in the case Of some
countries not in a position to begin
making those payments within possibly
a year or two.
The provision limiting the life or the
bonds to be accepted from the foreign
Governments to 25 years remained in
the bill, but otherwise the measure prac-
tically is as approved by the House. II
sets UP a commission with authority
subject to the approval of the President
to refund or convert and to extend time
of payment OF the principal or the in
est or both OF any obligation of any
foreign Government now owing TO the
United states on account of the world
war. The Secretary of the Treasury
would be chairman of the commission
and the other members would be ap-
pointed by the President subject to con-
firmation by the Senate.

ences with representatives of their en-
ployees yesterday preparatory to apply
ing to the United States Railroad Labor
Board for permission to cut wages OF
train service employees 10 per cent. and

PERSONAL AND IMPERS0NAL

Although ii may not be in the best
professional taste, 1t Is sometimes
wise trick for an editor TO take ms
reading public behind the scenes so as
to explain why and how some thing'
are done in the newspaper business.
There are times, in fact, when trip
back stage is the only sure method c.
conveying to the outside world the dit
ficulties that hamper the presentation
Of certain news items.
Only yesterday. for example. We
learned that the Chebra Par Israel OK
Jedwapno, Russia, purchased from Johr
de p Conger, 216 Henry street. three
story house 2S.7x100, for s16,250. The
average reader of course. VIII wonder
why we publish that fact here instead
of in the general news column. Th'
answer lies in tho physical limitations
that make headline writing such an ex-
acting task.
Unfortunately newspaper columns ar1
not made of rubber; they cannot be
stretched to At type, so the only logical
thing to do is to make the type fit there.
Only a certain number OF letters and
spaces can be jsmrued into headline
and they always seem to be too few
to tell tho story. SO you can picture
for yourself our mental agony when we
tried 10 announce in bold type that the
Chebra Par Israel OF Jedwabno. Rus
sia, had bought a piece Of real estate.
When we found that even shoe horn
would not ease the formidable mass OF
type into place we started on another
tack. We tried to say that the property
was sold to the above mentioned party,
hut hot a,,ft rra %
up in disgust and put the story in this
column where no headlines are used.
Incidentally our one great obsessng
fear has always been that the Mahara-
jah of Kapurthala will some day decide
TO settle down in New York city and
will Duy n duplex suite in a cooperative
apartment house through a brokerage
firm with name like Burgoyne Hamii
ton and Adrian Iselin I'd. But we al
most forgot that the latter firm recently
abridged its nomenclature TO Hamilton.

ming Pitchers for Sur
prised Colts.
[special to The Times-Dispatch.1

Especial to The Times-Dispatch.
PORTSMOUTH, VA, July oe-For
the first time during the 1922 season
the Richmond Colts grabbed two
games In single day. the Truckers
being their opponents. Coincident-
ally both games were won by the
same count 81. Today's double vic
tory gave oldring's club the series
with Portsmouth.
Errors contributed to the Truoker.,
downfall in the first game. The
Portsmouth infeld had an off dav.
with four misplays chalked up
against it. including one boot by
Manning
In the second game the Colts won
largely through stra,ght-away hit
ting, while Finnesan was holding
the home club back. Mickey" got
two hits himself. Including a double.
while Grcenae and Ramos poled OUT
homcrs.
Barring slight tendency to Wild
ness, Finnegan pitched n masterful
game. showing the same form which
last year put him at the head of the
virginia League hurlers The first
game was a nipt and-tuck mound
battle between Dodson and Manning
with honors about even, save for the
poor backing received by Manning.
and to which he himself contributed,
Aragon led the Colts offensive in
the first game, with three hits out
OF six times at bat. including a
double. Ramos got two in four times
up. including three-base swat. KEEL
Ter was the other Colt to achieve
more than one base hit during the
game, getting two in three times
up.
Bashang led the Truckers with the
STICK getting three hits In seven
times at bat. for the two games.
The fielding features of the game
were two snappy double plays, both
in the first contest. Ramos. by a
beautiful peg. caught a Trucker of
second base on an outfield fly. while
Voter and Rooney completed a light
ming double play.
In the second game Dodson went
In for Keller at right field during
the last part OF the game.
