DEMOCRATS HAVE
LITTLE CHANCE OF
ORGANIZING HOUSE
Representative Byrnes Says
LaFolIette Faction Will Hold
Balance of PoWer-Sur-
prised at Democratic Tide
WASHINGTON BUREAU
THE AGE-HERALD
WashlnRton. ID. G.. Nov. 16.

Representative James f. Byrnes Of
South Carolina, one of the most OBJ
servant democrats in the House. re-
turning to Washington today. secuted
the idea that democrats would have
q chance to organize the House the
next session of Congress. However,
he declared that Senator Robert NJ.
LaFollette. through the Wisconsin
delegation which he will control. Will
be the dominant influence in organ
ization.
1.-THE Wisconsin delegation" said
he, has always been Independent. At
present only one member is anti
LaFoilette. and he retires after
March 4. do not think there will
be a chance for democrats to profit
from the fact that Wisconsin will
exercise the balance OF power and IS
independent But unquestionably
Wisconsin will make the reelection
of Speaker Gillette conditional on
an agreement that majority leader
satisfactory to Wisconsin he chosen.
/ do not believe that Representative
Nicholas Longworth, who is being
groomed to succeed Representative
Frank Mondell. defeated in a race
for the Senate. will be satisfactory 10
Wisconsin, and win not be chosen
leader"
Surprised mt Victory
Mr.. Byrnes made his remarks when
questioned regarding an interview by
Representative Claude Kitchfn Of
North Carolina. who expressed belief
that democrats would organize the
House. and he would be elected
speaker.
Mr.. Byrnes declared that no was
surprised at the extent of the dem
ocratic sweep. He said that he, as
a member of the democratic cam
paign committee of the House. had
not hoped to reduce the republican
majority below SO. because of the
democrats great handicap in the lack
of funds. The result he attributed
to general dissatisfaction with re-
publican control.
The South Carolina member came
TO Washington in advance of the
session to aid In preparing the naval
appropriation bilt. He expressed
conviction today that the personnel
of the navy would not be reduced
below the present figures. $4,000, and
that the bill would carry an ap-
preparation of about s342. 100000.

nous mother in the world" Mary

So much stir has been made in all
the large centers where silver
Wings" has already appeared that
opinion Is divided whether 1t is due
to the emotional quality of the
famous drama upon which 1t is based,
to the remarkable characterize tons

presented.
The management of the Alcazar
theatre expects to demonstrate that
the sweeping force of the produce

OF all these elements. And yet for
one who is acquainted with the per-
Torrance rendered by Mary Carr in

LYRIC BILL GOES WRONG

night. For instance. Madame Jean

have something to say IL he could
see what the director did to his
story and perhaps he would be per-
fectly satisfied We don't know
what he might think As for our
selves, Mr.. Rogers wrinkled visage
compensated for any possible flaws.
It's film worth seeing-the highest
praise.
A lot of people came to the Lyric.
They stood up for one show and
seats just sufficed the other.

the remainder of the evening. Mad

Anyway two funny men came out
who had funny of telling

the altar was banked with tall
palms and ferns and wealth of
yellow and lavender chrysanthe-
NUNS. Tall cathedral candlesticks,
holding burning tapers, shed their
soft glow over the artistic setting
and when the organ pealed forth its
melody the crowded house responded
with quickened interest. Mrs. c. Guy
Smith sang beautifully, just preeed-
ing the ceremony, accompanied by
Mrs. j. C. Haygood. who also played
the wedding march.
Lavender and gold was the color
motif OF the wedding and the maids
and matrons were exauisite1y
gowned. Mrs. Robert Stallworth was
the handsome matron of honor. while
Miss Juliette Sellers was lovely as
the maid of honor. The bridesmaids
were Misses Hazel Hannah, Laura
Mae Hill. May Wood and Virginia

unusually beautiful.
The groomsmen were J.. r. Whit
field, Jr., Klenton McLemore Of Mont

had for his best man kennon Bow
ling of Birmingham.

little flower girl, Maria Bell, daugh
ter of Mr.. and Mrs. Hardy Bell. Miss
Moore entered with her father, Will
liam III. Moore, by whom she was

BANDITS ARE
LOCATED IN
A MO-, CAVE
Officers Following Blood
Hounds Surround Hiding
Place of the Fremont
Bank Robbers.

Poplar Bluff, Mo-, May 1S.-In-
formation reaching here last night
was to the effect that officers, as
sisted by blood hounds. had located
the two men who held up Cashier
+. l.. Fogel of the State Bank oil
Fremont Monday morning, and were
preparing to close in on them. The
men, it is said, are hiding in a
large cave only short distance
from Fremont.
Cashier Fogel said yesterday that
the loot secured by the bandits was
about $1,000, although it was be-
lieved at first that they had taken
at least $4,000.
Officers are anticipating battle
when they attempt to arrest the
bandits, and are using every precau-
tion for their safety. The bandits
have the best of the situation, being
hidden in the cave, and it isthought
they have considerable ammunition
and will withstand severe seige.
