AccUSER OF ATTORNEY GENER
AL is ATTACKED BY PAR
TY MEMBER.
DAUGHERTY is FREED
CLEAN BILL OF HEALTH AP.
PROVED BY ALMOST A
UNANIMOUS VOTE.

Washington.-The House, by a vote
of 204 to II, approved the action of
the judiciary committee In giving At
torney General Daugherty n clean bill
of health on the impeachment charges
brought against Him by Representative
Keller, Republican, Minnesota.
Without u roll call and by practl-
cally an unanimous vote, it adopted
also resolution discharging the COM
mittee from further consideration Of
the charges and laying the Keller i'm
peachment resolution on the table. The
two votes were regarded as having the
effect of closing the incident.
The Question of whether the House
has the constitutional power to compel
member to testify before its COM
mittees was left undecided. This is
sue was raised in the midst of the ju-
dietary committee hearings when Mr..
Keller refused to respond to sub
poena served on him after his .dra-
patton in the proceedings. The COM
mittee in it's report took the position
that the House could punish Mr.. Kel-
Ter by Imprisonment or otherwise I'M
til he did testify, the term of impris-
onment, however, not to extend beyond
this session of Congress, but it made
no recommendation on the subject, nor
did the House take direct action
upon it.
The House votes were preceded by
three hours of spirited debate featured
by attacks upon and a defense of Mr..
Keller and by assaults upon Samuel
Untermyer of New York, Jackson IL.
Ralston of Washington, who was Rep
resentative Keller's counsel, and his
associate, John II. Vahey of Boston,
and Samuel Gompers, president of the
American Federation of Labor.
Referring to letters written by Mr.
Untermyer regarding the impeachment
charges, which were made a part of
the minority report filed by Represen-
tative Thomas, Democrat, Kentucky
Representative Goodykoontz, Repub-
lican, West Virginia, charged that
these documents had been dragged
in to besmirch the judiciary commit
tee," he added that he did not then
have time to discuss Mr.. Untermyer's
record" fully, but that he would do
so in an extension of his remarks in
the Congressional Record.
There was a sharp clash between
the Kentucky member and Mr.. Vol
stead when Mr.. Thomas charged that
the chairman had "deleted" the orig
inal record of the hearings. Mr.. Vol
stead vigorously denied the charge,
but Mr.. Thomas insisted upon it, de-
claring that at one stage of the hear
ings the chairman had peremptorily
commanded Mr.. Keller to sit down,
while the official record made it ap-
pear that the command had been a
mild" request.
There was split in party lines on
the proposition to give Mr.. Daugherty
a clean bill of health, twelve Repub-
licans voting in the negative and ten
Democrats in the affirmative.

here from the Coblenz bridgehead and

Three Women Now in Congress.

Washington.-For the first time in

,ress. The feminine contingent now
consists of Aunt Alice" Robertson of
Oklahoma, Mrs. Winifred Mason Huck

Proposed Reorganization Of the Diplomatic
and Consular Services
By SECRETARY OF STATE HUGHES, Letter on Rogers

The diplomatic service is greatly underpaid 1t
is well known that man without private means,
whatever his ability, cannot accept the more i'm
portant posts of ambassador or minister. Of more
immediate Importance, however, is the fact that the
salaries of secretaries in the diplomatic service are so
low, the choice OF candidates is restricted largely to
young men of wealthy families who able and
willing, to considerable extent, to pay their own
way
It follows that there must be an increase in

DREARY LITTLE ISLE WILL
SOON BECOME DESERTED
Small Colony Ready to Quit Tiny
Bit of Land Off Coast
of Sicily.

| Ustica, small island, four miles
by two and half, off the north coast
| Of Sicily, is fast becoming depopulated
| and 1t is feared that the colony may
| die out altogether.
Once desert island, 1t was popu-
lated in 1859. under King Ferdinand
In order to prevent its becoming q
refuge for the pirates Of the Mediter-
ranean- In the course Of few years
there. due to the fact that the people
were exempt from taxes and public
utilities were In the hands of the gov
eminent The chief products of the
island were corn, wine and olives. A
colonel, with the necessary garrison at
his command, acted as governor.
Since 1869 these privileges have
been taken away one by one. The
registrar office was removed and now
the people have to go to Palermo to
enter public records. This requires
three days If the boat happens to &c
running regularly. Military protection
was taken from the island, leaving
only few riflemen to guard the peni-
Tertiary. The inhabitants are subject
to the same taxes as the rest of the
kingdom There is no public lighting
system, no children's home, no drug
gist, and the sanitation is bad. There
10 one doctor, who gets paid very little.
The schools are few and new teachers
are employed each term ut the whim
Of the principal.
Before the war, however, the Italian
authorities undertook to restore pros
perity to the island. They decided to
build seaport there. During the last
four years work on it has been sus-
pended. The construction Of a military
wall, also was talked OF, but work on
1t never was begun. Internal discord
among the people on the island, who
are divided into factions, made mat
tiers worse.
1t was suggested that Ustica be an
nexed to the community of Palermo, but
this idea was considered a radical
solution and nothing was done about
1t.
Meanwhile the people Of Ustica are
leaving the island for the mainland,
where they will be treated more fairly.
And on this island that until recently
had a population of 1000 soon there
will be left but few prisoners in the

U. S. GETS GERMAN BIRDS
Annual Importation of Canares
Reaches PreWar Basis

Germany is recovering from the war
in at least one important respect. Dur
ing the last two years the importation
of canaries into this country from Ger
many has reached prewar levels, ac-
cording to official statistics
One of the functions of the biological
survey is to inspect the importation Of
birds from foreign countries. Last
year more than 10000 canaries were
imported from Europe and the Orient
In rearing song canaries the aim is
to produce males with clear. soft
pleasing songs, with long rolls or
trills. When fiedged, the young birds
are put in rooms with males noted for
their Soft song, where they develop
their own vocal powers by imitation
Ordinarily, these training rooms are
kept darkened to lessen tendency to
loudness.

The problem is to reach the con-

and it can be delivered with min

will make it profitable to the grower.
No better illustration of this CONNER

system in vogue with the berry raisers
of Puget Sound territory, and to some
extent in this vicinity. 1t is the ship

fMEMBER OF ASSOCIATED PRESS

1t would be useless for President
Coolidge to call congress in special
session to fix the price of wheat, I'M
less those favoring such action can
give some assurance that the votes
would be forthcoming to pass the de-
sired relief measure. Otherwise the
country would be put to heavy ex-
pense and nothing would be accom-
plished. In fact, less than nothing,
as the session would probably be
used by the politicians as an oppor-
tunity to play politics, or for some
interests to try to slip across legls-
lation of an Objectionable nature. An
extra session is desirable, If the de-
sired legislation can be put across.
Unless there is some assurance OF
this, the president should not be cri-
ticised for refusing to act.

William Allen White, the Kansas
writer, says that every other calling,
craft or profession has closed shop
except the farmer The doctor, he
states, calls his closed shop medical
ethics" and raises prices to his
medical ethics" The lawyer has
his bar association, the merchant his
retailers club, and every skilled lab
orer on earth has his union. But the
farmer must have three, or four or
five unions, each pulling and hauling
at the other, each jealous of the other,
and all the unions spend more time
quarreling than they do helping the
farmer Yet he won't give one OF
them up. White then goes on to say
that it is high time that the farmer
was following the tactics of people in
other lines and fixing an iron-clad
price on what he has to sell, with
the same kindly assurance, if you
don't like the price, don't buy"

which few years ago they never
dreamed Of, and still there is COM
plant that conditions are not good.
AS a matter of fact they are good for
some people and not for others, and

conditions can continue as they are
