! Washington, Congress is deinc very
little legislatipg and 1t is this rea-
son alone, he believes, that may
prevent the Swing Johnson bin
fro mheing brought 10 the floor for
vote.
congressman who have been ap.
proar he'd on the subject OF the
Swing.Johnson bill, have shown as
astonishing eagcrness tol earn all
aboat It, and once familiar with its
provisions, have become its firm
supporters, and the apparent sin
cerity which they show in behalf Of
the bill, has been surprising TO thr
members, of the Imperial Valley del
sgation, he said.
Asked what Congressman Swing
thinks of the bills chances for pass
"ge. at this session, Mr.. Webster.
stated that Swing is carrying many
other burdens in addition TO the
bill, "nd is inclined ut times 10 be-
come discouraged. However, the
very next moment he is plugging
away son the bill as hard as ever,
overcome with optimism and fully
confident that the bin will be in.
troduced and passed.
The Imperial Valley delegation is
working rs n unit, Webster stated,
and has not been divided upon :,
single issue since they arrived. IN
Washington. Elmer Head, of Gel
iPatria, representing .he American
Legion, reached the capital just
two days before Webster left, and
immediately jumped into tho fight.
!Iaving been in Washington N b.
lalf of the bill at the last session
Of congress. Webster stated he be-.
lieves Heald can do considerable
good at this particular time
The other members of the dele
cation are optimistic :Rd every
whore the feelings seems to b., that
even though the bill fails to be in
reduced at this sessions it is bound
to be next session, and will go
through to . successful passage
With very little delay. However. no
one win admit that the bin nas no
chance to be introduced before ad-
'ournment for the present session is
taken.
Had The Teapot Dome scandal no.
broken at this particular time
;hings might have been great deal
different, Mr. Webster believes. Al
Of Washington has every facult.
ccntcred on the investigation which
is secthing around :he appropriate.

VETERANS TOLD

Revelations
ny United Press Leased Wire

SAN DIEGO, Feb. 2S.--"The Op-
timist, a weekly paper published
by disabled war veterans at the
Camp l<carny hospital, has hcen
directed to tone down its co'toriH!
policy by Colonel II. +. Whhiodge,
commanding officer.
While the reason given WIS th";
1t was causing high blood pressure
among the patients, W. A. Allen,
its editor, asserts that high hood
pressure in the offices of the Er.ith
district Of the veteran bureau ~
san Francisco may have something
to do with the order.
Allen and f. Z. Mclaughlin, as
sociate editor. were called before
Whitledge and informed that the
paper s policy had been criticized III
a letter from Louis T. Grant, man
ager of the district which includes
California, Nevada and Arizona.
According to Allen, the interview
ended without Il definite threat of
suppressing The OptiiniSt heing
made, bat it was clearly indicated
that the paper would have 20 adopt
{: more moderate toae.
The real reason for the measure
against The Optimist, Allen said
is Grants knowledge that the
Camp KeaTny organ intends TO
prir. q damaging article about 4
man high i'll the district bureau or
ganiZatiuu.
The press on which The Optimist
is printed was presented to the pa
tients. It is under control ,f ;ht

stopped ut. their order.
