that the Maryland law makes no

BEAMS AND BEAMS LOOK JUST
 ALIKE AND JUDGE IS PUZZLED

WALLA WALLA Wash, Mar. A. When Police Judge Fred Hedger in court yesterday afternoon called two men charged with transporting liquor, three men responded.
 (Which one of you is M IL. Beams ?" asked the city attorney.
 Two men alike as two peas stepped forward.
 "What's your name?" asked the at, torney of one man.
 "M. L. Beams" replied the man.
 Whats your name asked the at torney of the other
 'M. L. Beams," heferlied.
 The court then became confused, but it developed that the men were twins and brth, their initials were the same. They were later released because of in sufficient evidence.
 The case was one Of several result ing from a big liquor raid staged by the police, aided by three special oper- atives formerly employed by Governor Pierce of Oregon. 4 total of $700 in fines and forfeited bonds was collected by the court.

FED. GOVERNMENT TO
 RESTORE PROPERTY

OLYMPIA, Mar. 4.-President Col win Coolidge before the year is over will have made it possible for this state to recover all of the 438,249 acres of granted lands lost when the forest reserves were created. All of the eastern Washington tracts tenta- lively selected by the state have been thrown open to entry by Land Commis sioner C. V. Savage on behalf of the state, and all that remains to make it possible to get possession of the big timbered areas in the Hoh and Clear water river districts and in the Sul- tan and Pilchuck basins is the final re- port of Interior Department engineers and the presidential proclamation. It IS reasonably certain that a twenty year fight to recover there granted lands that began to impress federal of- ficials in 1913 when Land Commission CT General W. V. Tanner served an uI- timatum that the state would either peacefully recover it's lands through governmental assistance or would ap- peal to thecourts will be won through President Coolidge's action before the end of the summer.
 Approximately 181, 700 acres in the Chelan national forest all located in Okanogan county and chiefly valuable for grazing were opened to the states selection by the President last week.
 Engineers working on reports from the Hoh, Clearwater and Sultan Basin surveys are nearly ready to submit their reports As soon as these reach the Interior department they will be taken up out of order and passed on to President Coolidge who is interested in restoring Washington's lost lands.

REPUBLICANS LOSE CONTROL OF HOUSE
 IN RADICAL BLOC

WASHINGTON, D O., Mar. 4.-The republicans have lost control of the House of Representatives. Whether they can regain it by effective leader ship is doubtful. The insurgent repub- licans from the West have combined with the almost solid democratic strength and the result is that the first important piece of legislation sought by the Coolidge administration has been beaten and the democratic tax plan substituted.
 Over in the senate an almost iden- tical situation prevails for the com bination of Western republicans, as for instance in the resolution calling for the resignation of Sec. Denby
 The democrats emerge from the house debate radical party - at least their plan is the least favorable to the people seeking a reduction of surtaxes on large incomes. The so- called radical group of insurgent re- publicans was willing to accept 70 per cetn surtax instead of the demo- cratic plan for A per cent, but the re- gular republicans wanted 35 per cent and as a conse quence the democratic proposals have been inserted in the revenue bill, which Is before the house today.
 The fate of tax Legislation rests with the insurgent groups iii the house and senate, who must finally be won ovet before the differences that naturally will arise in conference between the senate and house can be ironed out and a measure presented to the White House for signature
 The democrats in the senate for the most part favor the plan of Represen- tative Garner, Texas, the man whose plan has been successful in the house. But there are a number of democrats from Western states who will be un- der considerable pressure to vote for lower surtaxes. They are conservatives at heart and when the final showdown comes, the Democratic def1ection from the Garner plan may offset the few republican votes that go to the Garner plan or one of similar charac- ter.

B0RlH SAYS AMERICANS
 ARE SUPPORTING FRENCH

WASHINGTON, D. c. Mar. A. Failure of the French government to take steps to adjust it's four billion dollar war debt to the United States drew fire today in the senate from Senator Borah, republican of Idaho.
 There is every fndication," he said, "that the French government is declining not only to meet the inter est payments, but even has made no effort to adjust the debt, as a credit or acting in good faith naturally would desire to make.
 While this debt is technically due the United States government in re- ality it is due to the taxpayers of the United States"
 He said that while France was unwilling to come to a settlement with the United States, it was loan ing large sums to governments in Eu~ rope, particularly Poland and Czecho SlOvakia.
 Describing France as the greatest militarist Europe has even known Senator Borah said the American tax payers were meeting the cost of her army of 75O,O0O men as surely as if it were their own
 Reading into the record a number of speeches and writings of officials of France and Italy, Senator Borah declared that the officials were "pre- pairing their own cOnsciences and the consciences of their own people for a repudiatiOn of the debt"
 Senator Smoot, republican, of Utah a member of the American debt com mission, told the senate the commits sion had never given cause for the belief that the cancellation of any one of the foreign debts would be accep- table.
 II am sorry to say there is little expectation of an early settlement" he added" The world war foreign debt commission will omit no oppOr tunitiy to press for settlements, but we cannot force settlements"
