HIS FALSE TEETH CAME BACK
Suburbanite Much Relieved When
Missing Property is Returned
by His Tailor.

Smith, who lives up in Washington
Heights, boasts pair of gold-rimmed
detachable and demountable teeth.
The other morning as he was rushing
around TO get ready to go to the office
he missed his fancy molars. He
searched high and low. but in vain.
Early in the evening he came home
to renew the search. Just as he had
decided that he must have swallowed
them in his sleep, his tailor appeared
with suit of clothes he had taken to
clean and press the night before.
81 won't charge you anything for
cleaning these" smiled the tailor as he
drew the coat aside and revealed the
two gold-rimmed, detachable and de-
mountable teeth suspended from the
hanger Smith was thankful the tail
or hadn't turned his fat iron into a
toothbrush, and that be had felt

Army and sNavy Suffering.

Certain departments of government
are having their activities checked by
lack of funds to do what probably
ought to be done. The army and navy
particularly are suffering today and
there seems to be no doubt at all that
they will continue to suffer. Students
of conditions say that congress may
save the people some money next win
ter by Withholding appropriations for
some of the varied works of the gov
ernment departments, but that in the
future the taxpayers of the country
will pay five-fold more because of the
present-day desire of congress to eff
feet what will look like a saving.
The Republican majority has its
legislative program, and the radical
progresslves" have their program. The
Republican majorities in house and
senate are small and they are not
really majorities at all. The pro-
gressives will not allow the party to
which most of them belong, in name at
least, to put anything at all through,
unless they get something for what
they give. They are not likely to get
much. because the things which they
suggest are things TO which Republicans
who also are conservatives probably
cannot subscribe.
An attempt will be made TO secure
complete revision of the present rail
road law The conservatives will not
listen to this. 1t is pretty well known
also that a certain contingent will
attempt to put a resolution through
which will deny the right of the Su-
preme court to declare unconstitution-
al by five to four vote any act of
congress.
The Colorado statesman., 1923-12-01

sembles. These measures. of course.
will be known as administration Re
publican measures. The representatives
OF the blocs in congress will have
measures of their own to introduce for
which they will, ask support. After
study of the measures which are
likely to be introduced, It seems likely
that only two of them can be looked
upon as nonbloc and nonpartisan inso-
far as support for them in the two
houses Is concerned.
The two exempted measures are Inn
migration and the bonus. on every
thing else which has been suggested
as likely to come before congress,
bloclsm and partisanism will be much
in evidence. 1t is to be doubted II
the Republican leaders believe that
any bills of Importance, conservative
in their nature and backed by the ad-
minlstratiOn, can be enacted into law
by a straight party majority.
The Republican leaders today SEEM
lngly are as anxious as ever. because
of the imminence of the presidential
campaign, to pass certain measures
by a party majority and thus to let
the voters know that a harmonious
congressional Republicanism is back
ing Republican administration.
Bonus Has Support Everywhere.
The bonus has its support In the
ranks of all congressional elements,
Democratic, Republican. Farmer-La-
Dor and every other element with
name or without a name. The bonus
bill, If 1t goes through, as 1t probably
will, can be claimed as a Republican
measure only because the Republicans
have a majority in each of the two
houses--that is, they have it If certain
men written down as Republicans are
rightly so written down.
AS for immigration, the expectation
is that any attempt to let more Inn
migrants into the country than may
come under the present law will be
defeated by a combination of Repub-
licans, Democrats and blocs. The only
support for easier admission for i'm
migrants to the United States prob
ably will come from the extreme con-
servatives of the Democratic and Re
publican parties, and there probably
are not enough of these in either house
to secure the result that they seek.
The friends of more lenient immi-
grafton laws also will have the sup
port of representatives of certain ra-
cial groups in congress, and beyond
this they count on nothing, for coun-
try-wide manifestations have proved
pretty conclusively to the majority
of congressman that the country wants
TO AmerIcanize the foreigners that 1t
has before it allows others to come
in faster than they are coming now.
One chief Republican endeavor in
the next congress will be to cut the
appropriations so that the party can
go before the country next summer
to say, Look at the saving grace of
our action" 1t is pretty well known
that President Coolidge will urge econ
omy to the parsimony point. The Re
publican majority will do its best to
meet the administration recommen-
dation, and it can be taken for granted
that the Democrats will enter no objec-
tions.

CAR FARE
PLAN AGAIN BEATEN
But Senate Vote of 81 to SO
Shows Rising Sentiment,
Says Mcclellan.

For the second time within a week
the. Senate yesterday defeated the
efforts Of Senator Mcclellan of Ten
nessee to reduce street car fares in
the District to a scent basis, when
it voted, 81 to S6, to table an amend
ment to a District bill prohibiting
street railways to exceed the fares
specified in their charters.
Following a debate which took up
the morning" session, Senator Nc
Nary Of Oregon moved to lay the
amendment on the table. The mo-
ton was carried by q margin Of one
vote.
Senator Couzens Of Michigan
branded the Public Utilities Commits
sion as O legalized protection for the
street railways. Col. Charles Keller,
chairman OF the commission, was
singled out particularly by the
Michigan Senator, who declared that
Colonel Keller's recent speeches have
revealed his complete sympathy with
the railways.
1.-The street car companies Of
Washington have been allowed by
the commission to make millions Of
dollars out Of watered stock. There
can be no excuse for continuing the
Scent fare"
Senator Mcclellan declared that
the vote yesterday was significant
Of q rising sentiment in favor of the
scent fare. When a similar amend
ment was defeated last week, he
pointed out, the vote was 80 to 26.
He will continue the fight on three
other District bills, to which he has
offered amendments similar to the
one defeated yesterday.
