Committee became impatient, and
under the new rule got $50 Con-
gressmen to sign a resolution of
discharge Of the committee.
Discharge Is Fought.
Discharge of the committee is
being fought bitterly by a majority
Of its members. They resent the
move by Barley as rejecting on
the committee and holding it up
to the country as being derelict in
smother legislation instead Of sub
hitting 1t to the House with favor
able or unfavorable report. The
legislation is attacked as imperfect
in that It gives no consideration TO
the public, the most vitality inter
ested party in q railroad strike, but
permits the handling of adjustment
negotiations by representatives of
the railroad workers and railroad
managers with the Government
and expenditures.
Complaints against the Legislation
have been filed with the committee
by railroad workers, who claim
they have been ignored and would
have no representatives on either
Of the four major regional boards
to. hear and pass upon the merits
Of controversies. These workers
ask that the bill be changed to take
care Of them. The public IL de.
manding some form Of representa-
ton. It was stated it would take
weeks of hearings for the commit
tee to give the legislation proper
consideration, but it was argued
this could cause no trouble because
there was peace in the railroad
world and no sign of storm.

ACTION FACES
DAUGHERTY
Wheeler Committee Aroused
at Attempt to Block
investigation
By WILLIAM X. HUTCHINSON,
International News Service.

Former Attorney General Har-
ry M. Daugherty was threatened
today with institution of criminal
proceedings before a Federal
grand jury as a retaliatory move
for his effort to obtain an in
junction hating the Wheeler
Brookhart committees investiga-
ton of his administration in the
Department of Justice.
To Prepare Report.
Senator BroOkhart R.) Of Iowa
was requested by the committee
today to prepare partial re-
port" on the evidence brought our
against Daugherty at its public
hearings. Brookhart's proposed
that this report be submitted to
the Senate with a request that
Harlan Fiske Stone, the new At
torney General, be instructed to
lay the testimony before Federal
grand jury here ''for the purpose
Of starting criminal action agains.
41GO3 hCANSs "A 1udIOIAIJ Ia ID0
committee, which is dominated by
the insurgent RepubIican-Demo-
cratic coalition, was said to favor
this proceeding.
Under the Brookhart plan, tbs
committee would strike back OF
Daugherty and his brother, Nal 3
Daugherty, who also obtained q
temporary injunction stopping all
efforts to investigate the records
of his bank, the Midland National.
at Washington Courthouse, Ohio.
Would Subpoena Records.
Brookhart contended that, II the
evidence were laid before a Federal
grand jury, these records could be
subpoened from the Nal Daugh-
erty bank and all kilograms sent
or received by the former Attorney
General could be scrutinized. The
Western Union Company recently
refused to turn these messages
| over to the committee and Daugh-
erty asked the court to enjoin the
company from giving up the tele-
grams.
All members Of the committee
were indignant at the former At
torney Generals effort to stop the
investigation. Senator Wheeler
Oem.) of Montana, termed 1t on
open confession of guilt"
This move by Daugherty IL
further evidence that he is afraid to
have the truth of his unfaithfulness
revealed to the public" said
Wheeler. HE insisted that his adj
ministration be investigated when
charges Of misconduct were first
made against him, but since it start
ed he has done everything in his
power to conceal evidence Of his Of
fetal neglect. To my mind, it is an
open confession Of guilt"
Senator Moses R.) OF New Hamp.
shire, an Administration leader, de-
scribed Daugherty's court action as
unusual"
Lots Of curious things are hap
pening," said Moses, but it is an
extraordinarily unusual thing for an
individual to go into court to re-
strain a Senate committee"

OAKLAND SALES
SHOWS ENORMOUS
YEARS INCREASE

Business is good in Southern Cali
fornia as far as the sale of the
Oakland six is concerned. This is
evidenced by a report of the sales
increase on this ear over the previ-
GUS II mouths period and over the
first five months of 1924 as com
pared to the same period in 1923.
''I have the rgistration figures
for Southern California which show
remarkable sales increases on the
Oakland six,' says P. l.. Moore,
sales manager of the Imperial Val
ley Finance Inc, Ell Centre Oakland
dealers, "and while a pack of ca
lamity howlers have been crying
about business falling off we have
forged steadily ahead.
Sales Of Oakland skies for the
past II months show an increase of
more than $50 per cent over the
previous II months period which in
itself is Il most. remarkable show
ing. But even better than this is
the showing for the first five
months of 1924. During this per-
iod sales increased 356 per cent over
the same period in 1923.
"The reason is obvious. The Oak
land was among the first to adopt
four wheel brakes as standard
equipment 1t was the first car to
use the permanent duco finish which
is the elixir of youth as far as the
appearances of a car are concerned.
The centralized control was an Oak

HIPASS CAMP
is NOW OPEN
TO THE PUBLIC

The Young Women s Christian
ASSOCIATION camp at Hipass in the
vicinity of Campo and White Star
opens its summer vacation season
for the general public TODAY Three
groups of Girl Reserves have each
enjoyed successive week long camps.
and made their share of the camp
season a financial success. From
now until September the camp is
open to anyone desiring an mex
pensive vacation. A feature of the
camp this summer will be the care
of children whose parents may de-
isre to send them out of the valley
heat with the assurance that they
will receive good care during the
time they are away from home.
The camp will be under the direc-
tion of Mrs. Otis Tipps as camp
hostess, her pleasing~ personality
and capability of handling the de,
tails of camp life have been prov
en- by the splendid manner in which
she cared for the Girl Reserve camps.
The girls all attest to the fine. care,
good meals, and management of
Mrs. Tipps.
The total attendance of Girl Re-
serves was SO, and there was a
group of IL advisers in charge of
the camp activities. The total
camp population not including Sun
day visitors amounted to IA per-
sons. Sunday visitors over the
week-ends to date number more
than go persons. The camp piano
which was obtained through the eff
forts of Mrs. John Kavanaugh of
Holtville for nominal sum has
been paid for and has proved itself

ALL MELON EATING
RECORDS BROKEN
AT PRESS PICNIC
"Ye Newspaper Gang"
Gets Away With 30
Fat WatermelOns


Watermelon eating records were
completely wrecked when members
of the Press staff were guests of
the management recently at the an
nual Press picnic on the desert near
Seeley, where a stack of 80 long,
cold melons was completely con
sumed during the party. There
were lots of other good things be-
sides, including scads of canta-
loupes, gallons and gallons of ice
cream, (white and brown,) and de-
viOus kinds of cakes and cookies.
The winners, so far as eating re-
cords were concerned, were easily
found among the Is newsies in the
group, and even among the older,
more sedate members of the group,
who would hardly be expected to
feature i'll such frivolous affairs.
The party, which left the Press
office shortly after seven O'Clock,
numbered more than 40 members of
the Press family, from Manager w.
c. Costello to the youngest newsie.
From the fireworks which were
uncorked during the evening, it
was hard to tell whether it was q
Fourth of-July celebration, a G. o.
p. convention, or a golden wedding
IN q gypsy camp. And judging by
the attacks made on the watermel-
ons, cantaloupes, ice cream and
cookies, one would gather that
newsboys and others in the news
paper business are possessed of vo-
ciferous appetites. "There amt no
such things as too much water
melon,' the .newsies declare, al
though the supply equalled the de-
mand.
The picnic was held OH the Mt.
Signal road three miles south of
Seeley where a huge bonfire lighted
up the entire vicinity. There was
dancing on the cement pavement, a
concert in which everyone joined,
and games which lasted until late
into the night. Mr.. and Mrs. Man
uel Llama sang several Mexican and
Colombian songs in Spanish before
the party broke up.
The banjo playing of George
Lindsey made the big hit of the
evening and the songfest was held
to the accompaniment of his music.
The fact that it was a wonderful
moonlight evening added much to
the occasion and i'll the words OF
some of our newspaper contempor-
aries "a delightful time was had

Unique Bits From
Fashions Realm to
Please EUerybody


Nothing is more chic for sum
mer wear than a three-quarter
length coat of flannel. The coat
may be any shade, but navy blue
with a collar of shreared white
rabbit, is favorite.
Snappy little hats, initiating n
jockey cap, but with higher
crown, have made their appearance
in Paris. There is deep visor and
above it there invariably waves a
'half wreath of flowers made from
ostrich feathers.
Ocean green is the latest shade for
undergarments. All undergarments
are returning to the vogue for lace
or net. Laees used on many gar
ments are ecru tinted. Filet, baby
Irish lace and net are trims most
often used.
The hosiery color chart includes
a new shade called gravel - This
color leads over off-nude shades and
peach color. The following colors
are endorsed by the better gowned
women of New York: gravel, shell,
black, buck, sunset, reindeer, cara
mel, castor, acorn, suede, silver and
medium gray.
Skirts of Roman striped silks can
be worn very successfully with
white blouses. Wrap-arounds that
fasten on the right side are new.
Brown satin slippers with a rhine
stone or enamel buckle, and metal
cloth sandals, are worn with lace,
satin, or georgette frocks. Black
satin slippers in the plain opera
styles are generally worn with the
black lace frocks, but as a rule are
embelIished with a<touch of metal
introduced in the form of &, plain
stitching around the top of the
slipper or in the heel, or with an
entire silver heel, or again are
decorated with rhinestone embroide-
ry on the toe.
White is the color most in de-
mand for blouses in all materials.
The new citrine yellow, threatens
to crowd French or powder blue for
second place. The predominance of
yellow as a summer color in all lines
will assure importance for it in
blouses.
Scarfs in bright colored tulle are
worn with lace, georgette, or satin
gowns. They are particularly eff
fective OH white or on metal gowns,
when thev are invariably in some
brilliant contrasting color.

SUGGESTIONS THAT
ARE USEFUL FOR
ALL HOME MAKERS

Always pour medicines from the
side of the bottle opposite to the
label, to avoid the mixture spilling
over directions or prescription
number.
Use up old spoois of silk for bast
ing. Silk can be removed more
readily than cotton and leaves no
traces where the stitches have
been.
If the boiled meat appears to be
tough, add teaspoonful of cider
vinegar to the water. The vinegar
will make the meat tender.
Carbolic acid sounds so formida
bic that we dread using it even if
we really need it. But one quart of
carbolic acid to 20 quarts water is
a solution that is guaranteed not to
burn.
