The Speaker and Floor Leader
of the Next House
Bv BILL PRICE.

Representative LoNGWoRTHS choice by his Republican
colleagues to be Speaker Of the next House was most grail
tying to all Washngtonians irrespective OF party Affiliations
Though he represents the powerful State OF Ohio ne has
spent most of the last twenty years Of his service to his coun
try this city and in that time has made thousands Of
friends because Of his fair attitude toward District affairs
In the lower House.
That attitude has demonstrated in the session Of
Congress about AS floor leader Of his party he
has given the District all the time possible in short session
His personal view toward things here is founded upon
broad vision of the requirements Of Federal City and not
Of country town. As national patriot he looks upon
Washington National City, the pride Of the whole nation
The regret Washington people will have that Mr..
Longworh will not Speaker, WELD the influence
for the District he did the floor Of the
House. but that regret will be sofned by the fact that he is
to be succeeded by Representative TS0N floor leader
During long and worthy service in the House Mr. Tlson
has not been unmndu Of the obligations Of Congress toward
the nations Capital
these statesmen have reached their high positions

support Of the country certainly Of the District of Columbia
Working together in harmony they and will accomplish
much for the nation and for the beloved city that is the
heart Of that nation.
gft OF the House Is recognition Of his sterling, manly
qualities in the field Of satesmanshp politics
relations to his felowman generally It is Of nation wide
interest that though he married the daughter of great

That is the truth and every who knows anything

From Columbus day to this
it has remained more or less an
enigma. It is known to be sit

winds above the trade wind zone

relative calm. But the actuaI
location of the Sargasso Sea, as
we'll as the density OF the weeds
and the area covered by them
vary with changing conditions, 80
that sometimes vessels pass over
the space, or a part of the space,
where the carpet of plants is sup
posed to be without finding 1t.
On the other hand reports have
occasionally been spread OF sail

the intricate mass as to be forced
to change their course, and ru-
mors have not been lacking OF
ships actually lost in it.

Beebe, who confessed that he

his belief in it's existence. He
has with him seven thousand
feet of sounding cable, and means

There they penetrate the little air

and presented the aspect of a
kind of marine forest growing be-

among the leaves on the surface
were multitudes Of bladder-likc

buoyancy needed to keep the

The water was splendidly blue,
and in it, darting among the
stems of the plants, appeared
