BY HARRY HUNT

WASHINGTON, Dee. 14.-Open war. Not just skirmishing- guerilla raids and misunderstanding in the dark. Real war, against forces with def initely established objectives, a care fully organized plan of campaign and artillery, ammunition and fighting reserves sufficient to sustain a pro longed and stubborn contest.
 That is the situation administra- tion forces face at the opening ses- sion of the Sixty-seventh Congress.
 Charged primarily with enactment of the ship subsidy bill, in addition to enactment o froutine appropriation bills, ship subsidy lost the spotlight within two days after the session opened.
 This was due to an aggressive counter-offensive, led by anti-admin- istration Republicans demanding re- forms in the manner of electing presidents, in the time of converting newly elected Congresses and in other matters disigned to gear the performance of government more closely to the peoples demands.
 Most important of these proposals is that which would wipe out the electoral college and permit direct voting for the candidates for pres ident, following their selection in popular presidential primaries.
 Second only to this is the propo- sition that a Congress elected in November should take office the fol- lowing January instead of 19 months later, in December of the following year, as the constitution now pro- vides.
 The immediate reason behind the present drive for changing the con stitutional date for convening con gress is the situation in which mem bers elect or reelected to the new Congress on specific pledges to fight conditions, particularly agricultural relief, now find themselves.
 Although elected Nov. ', 1922, they will not take their seats in Congress until Dec. 8, 1923, unless called into special session by the president. That will be too late to redeem any pledges for quick relief they gave their constituents.
 But with two sessions of Congress following election before they take their sessions of the old Con- gress in which the administration majority is overwhelming is pos sible for repudiated lame duck" members, with eyes on patronage plums within the presidents gift, to put through measures which the voters directly opposed in electing the new Congress.

WHAT'S DOING IN WASHINGTON
Reviews Capitol Correspondent Tells What Nations
 Leading Politicians Are Doing

every effort to block the proposed reform is assured by the immediate defi of President Harding, voiced at the White House.
 The president let it be known that he believed one of the greatest in- spirations of the founding fathers" was the provision in the constitution providing for a years delay before the converting of new Congresses.
 This. he said, provides a cooling off period, after the heat of cam paigns, which he thinks most de- sirable. Nothing that he can say or do, he intimated, would be left un- said or undone to prevent adoption of the amendment resolution.
 A twofold objective, however, is hidden in the counter-offensive of anti-administration forces. By fore ing the fighting on these proposals, and thus diverting administration concentration on the subsidy and oth- CT pet bills, the progressives also have grabbed the initiative in the battle over the direct primary.
 In the face of an organizing move ment, supported by administration chiefs, for the abolition of primaries and the return to machine nomina- tions in party conventions, the pro- gressive group, instead of being con- tent to defend the primary as it now exists, moves to extend it even to the selection of candidates for presi- dent. The anti-primary forces tere- fore, instead of being free to make their chief fight. on the primary as it is today, must first spend their en- ergies and time in blocking it's fur ther extension.
 Such are the outstanding factors in the political battlefront as the new session of Congress gets under way
 It's war. No other word describes it. It has all the trappings and ac couterments. Everything is figured on the basis of tactics, of strategy, of proper maneuvers and effect on the general campaign.
 Even the high explosives are there -oratorical, perhaps, but still ex- rlosive.
 The objective?
 By the progressives: Capture of control of the voting strength in the Republican party before midsummer of 1924.
 By the Democrats. who in this campaign are an allied and asso- ciate'' force with the progressives: Division of the Republican rands in 1924
 By administration Republicans: Maintenance of their control on the from being wrecked.

Vaudeville at Central"

Dangerous camera exploits were demonstrated over and over again in the filming of The Valley of Sil- ent Men," a new Cosmopolitan pic ture from the novel of James Oliver Curwood, which comes to the Cen tral theatre tonight. The picture was filmend in the heart of the Canadi- an Rockies, in which Curwood laid the settings for his story. The Coc- mopolitan company made the trip to the mountains early in the spring time when snowslides and avalan- ches were common as Indian guides.
 Every bit of camera equipment had to be packed on the backs of the men of the company. In many in- stances cameras were tied to ropes and let down from tops of noun tain peaks when difficult shots were made fin the interior of ere vases and caverns. Lew Cody plays opposite Miss Rubens in this ex- cellent picture of life in the Can adian wilds.
 In addition to this big Curwoo3 romance. the clever vaudeville trope of Oldfield and Drew which has been playing 10 crowded houses at the Eagle theatre will be moved over to the Central theatre for tonight. Violette in Visions DArt and Clark Oldfield with Miss Frankie Drew in their latest musical comedy hits have become popula: favorites at the Eagle and all Central natrons who enjoy clever vaudeville should not miss attending the big double pro gram for tonight.

WILL HE MAKE GOOD?

Sometimes as an old say ing has 1t, a fellow bites off more than he can swallow. Now in our town there is a case in point along this very line. We are wondering just what will happen. It's like this.
 K In some moment of eX- tolerance Judge Thomas of fered to drink the first quart of oil that is produced by the Holbrook Oil Co.,, always provided he had a chaser. At first he insisted that the Co. provide the chaser, but later in more lenient mode said that he would furnish his own lemonadel
 Just now the Co. think that the chances are getting mighty good that he will have to either back water or drink the quart of oil. Now, be it remembered by all those present that the Judge is 3 lawyer, and we'll bet that if the oil is brought around there will be . loop h le some where and h e will find it.
 At that we would be aI- most willing to drink a quart |of oil of course, to really know that what we have all been waiting for so long had at last been accomplish ed.

THE TALE OF THE COW

Yes. We meant tale. This is, however, the tale of the tail. The tale is ours and the second tailwas the cows.
 But not to digress from the subject. Do you know what a "dogy" is, and did you ever try to coerce a militant COW with suffra- gette notions into adopting one and giving it some lact- cal nourishment? Cur ad- vice is DON'T!
 But Mrs. Dick Grigsby didn't ask our advice and when she found a poor motherless little calf she tried to induce the COW to accept it as her own. Here by hangs the tail, forgive us, we meant tale.
 The cow didn't like or phans. It was a horrid- snubnosed, knock-kneed id tot, and she didn't intend to sponsor 1t. When Mrs. G. insisted she received a mild reproof from the boviny female administered be means of a rope-like tail. Whoever knew a woman to change her mind. Mrs. Grigsby didn't, neither did the cow. But the latter possessing more "beef" than the former, when the smoke of battle cleared away, Mrs. c. was picked up from a dark corner of the stable with numerous bruises and con. tuSions on her anatomy, and a milk" white complexion. The calf was still bawling hungrily.
