LADY ASTOR TUGS AT COAT TAILS OF SIR FRED IN VAIN
Woman ParIiamentarian De- termined Her Liquor Bill
 Shall Pass

LONDON. June 3o.-(By Associated Press.)-Lady Astor, tugging at the coat tails of Sir Frederick George Banbury in & vain effort to induce him to stop speaking so that she and her liquor bill might have the right of way, sent the House of Commons into peals of laughter last evening in which the grave speaker was obliged to join. Sir Frederick, who Is a sworn opponent of her bill, and who incidentally looks with dis favor upon the admission of women to Parliament, was well warmed up to the debate on the agricultural credits bill and paid no attention to her pleadings. Lady Astor finally tugged at his coat tails trying to force him to sit Gown, while the house laughed heartily.
 There were five minutes left for Sir Frederick immediately began moving amendments to 1t. Utterins groans of impatience and exclama tions of dismay, her ladyship made a desperate and futile attempt to move closure. This only served to increase the merriment, which burst forth anew when the time limit ex- pired with Banbury still talking.
 Then Lady Astor arose from her seat, shook her first at the enemy and hastening toward him, gave him half In petulance, while the members shouted with merriment.
 The bill. however. was not lost. as the government has promised to grant facilities for its eventual passage.

Tuskegee Hospital Situation Is
 Brighter As Farley Approaches

much good, from our standpoint, will result likewise from the visit of Gen. eral Hines. It matters little how firmly the President is convinced that he should put negroes in charge at Tuskegee. ne will not fail to act in response to the suggestion or recom- mendation of the chief of the bureau. And I am certain that General Hines will find the situation as pregnant with possible danger as Governor Brandon and the Tuskegee citizens have represented 1t to be-"
 It Is understood that the meeting will be an important one not only on account of the subject matter, but on account of the personnel. Sena- tor J. Thomas Heflin, Representa- tives W. B. Bowling and MT. Jeff fers will probably attend, and 1t is reported that Tuskegee citizens have asked Governor Brandon to make an appearance. At first blush, the i'm pression here Is that those in author ity attach little importance to the telegraphic promise of pr. G. C. White, who was charged with the To- cation of hospitals, that the hospital at Tuskegee wuold be organized with white officers. It Is intimated that pr. White was not in position to commit the government In the matter of policy: that policy, In other words could only be determined by the direc- tor of the veterans bureau with the approval of the President of the United States.
 MT. Jeffers left for Alabama to- night and will Inform the citizens of Tuskegee of the exact situation as 1t has developed from this angle.

FRENCH ROYAL L|STS ARE ONLY JOKE FOR
 IF PARIS
Dandet's Speeches Often En- IiVen Chamber, But Are Not
 Taken Seriously
By CARL VICTOR LITTLE


 PARIS, June 30.-France refuses to take her royallsts seriously. It Is the general belief here that as royalist, Leon Daubet Is wonderful court jester.
 Daudet. the owner of LAction Francaise and the leader of a few thousand French fasclsti and roy alists, is never permitted to finish a speech in the Chamber of Dep uties.
 "The republics the bunk" he shouts at nearly every session. "Irs no good. Give us back the dear old monarchy and Germany never will Invade us again"
 But before he gets ver~ 'ch sur- ther all the other deput es start glv- ing him a good old American "razz" Daudet Is quiet for awhlle but starts another aa;i-repubitoaa speech when tho opportunity pre- sents itself.
 "The grape crop fails during the republican regime and the wine Is bitter" he shouts. "Thc bread isn't near as good as 1t used to be-" Then down he goes again for the count.
 The fact that he Is permitted to make disparaging remarks about the republic proves that ne Is not taken seriously. One cannot imag inc a member of the House of Rep resentatives at Washington giving three cheers for King at nearly every session.
 Daudet always walks into the chamber accompanied by a body guard of huskies who are there to ward off his fees. If any. He Is inaccessible at hls newspaper of flee. The door Is always locked and when anyone knocks he is care fully examined before admission.
 Daudet as he informs the world necessarily, wants to place the Duke of Orleans on the throne of France and drop Briand. Poincare, Millerand, Clemenceau and other ardent re- publicans into the Seine.
 But In view of the fact that he only has a few impoverished titles back of his scheme and that the French people are happy and con tent during the present regime, 1t Is altogether unlikely that Daudet will Sncceed

GOMPERS PLAYS HARDING
Declares Labor Owes Nothing To
 Chief Executive

WASHINGTON. June 30.-State- ments made by President Harding Tn his labor speech at Helena yesterday were assailed today by Samuel Com pers. president of the American Fed eration of Labor, who declared that labor requires more than a speech to balance against the acts that have gone before"
 "We believe the President is sin cere Tn not wanting the unions de- stroyed," said the veteran labor lead CT. No sane person could want any such catastrophe. But we cannot in I dulge in any tumult of applause ovell this late profession of faith, becuse the unions themselves have saved the day and they have done this in spite of the official acts of some of the Presidents leading officials and ad visers. For their existence today the unions owe no thanks to the admin stration."
