SCOT 7 DIVORCE
CASE RESUMED
HERE
Both Factions Take Deposi-
tions from important
Witnesses
INTERNATIONAL NEWS RFEL
By GEORGE E. DURNO.

Lacking only the presence Of a
judge, the sensational divorce suit
brought by Congressman Frank d.
Scott Rep.) Of Michigan agains.
Mrs. Edna Scott resumed sessions
here today.
Although the case. being heard at
Alpena, Mich, does not actually re-
sumo until March 10, the taking Of
dispositions in Washington, by both
sides. has assumed such proportions
as to Approximate the court room
scene.
Principals and opposing counsel
came face to face at the opening
hearing for the first time since the
Alpena court recessed in December.
The taking Of testimony was feat.
ured by acrimonious clashes be-
tween counsel which started, when
Scott's attorney refused to shake
hands with his opponent.
The first witness heard, called
in behalf Of Mrs. Scott, was the
head waiter aboard the Army
Transport Cristobaf in 1921, ut the
time the now-famous Congressional
Junket went to Panama. This
witness was interrogated and cross
examined relative to the prevalence
Of intoxicating liquors aboard tho
Cristobal on her return trip, az
testified to earlier by Mrs. Scott.
Furniture Figures in Case.
Also, two officials of-a local
storage company. called by Mrs.
Scott, gave dispositions relative to
furniture owned by the SCOTS.
which had been storsd in their
warehouse. The furniture has
figured prominently in the trial,
Mrs. Scott having claimed her
husband gave It to another Con-
gressman in payment Of gambling
debts.
Dispositions yet to be taken to-
day are from witnesses called by
Congressman Scott. Foremost In
are the wife Of a Con-
gressnan who was on the Panama
junket and who has figured prom
inently in the sidelights Of the
case, and a house detective at a
local hotel where Mrs. Scott lived
for a while following separation from
her husband.
Throughout the days proceedings,
Mr.. and Mrs. Scott faced each other
across the reporters table. They
did not speak.
The work of taking depositions
probably will consume at least a
week. Both sides have q number of
witnesses to call.

MUSCLE SHOALS
BILL KILLED
BY FOES
FiIibuster, Organized for 90
Hours Talk, Defeats Under
wood Measure

The death of all Muscle Shoals
Legislation in the Sixty-eighth
Congress was conceded today by
Administration leaders.
They decided to abandon the
Underwood bill after learning that
the bills opponents have thor
oughly organized a filibuster to
block all further action in the
Senate.
Fourteen Senators are said to
have pledged themselves to each
talk five hours, If necessary, maxi
ing ninety hours Of consecutive
talk, which, coupled with the roll
calls, would literally "talk" the
Underwood bill to death.
StiIl in Conference
with the Underwood bill literally
abandoned, Administration leaders
called up the McFadden banking
bill in the Senate.
They hoped to enact this measure
before nightfal1 and then to turn
their attention to the passage OF
farm relief legislation. With this
program In mind, they announced
privately that the Underwood bill
would be ignored.
The Shoals bill was sti1l under
consideration today by Senate and
House coElferees, who sought to
adjust the sections which the Sem
ate voted were "ot1t Of order" and

headed by Senator Keyes Rep1 Of

the bin back to the Senate before
nightfall. AS II Is q privileged mat
ter. 1t can be called up for debate
at once.
Ready to FiIibuster
This action. however, would re-
lease the filibuster organized by the
bills opponents.
It was their plan to begin the
''five-hour' speeches at once and
continue them by relays until Satur-
day midnight, when recess undoubt-l
edly would be taken until Monday
morning.

with the aid Of roll-calls would con-
tinue up until noon, March 4.
Az two appropriation bills, farm
relief legislation and hundreds Of
minor personal bills remain on
the Senate calendar, It was con
ceded today that the filibuster
would create such q legislative jam
as to force abandonment of the
Underwood bill to save the remain
ing hours OF the dying Congress for
legislation which can be enacted.
With Administration support lost,
the Underwood bill would have but
q handful Of Southern Senators
supporting 1t,
It was reported this handful
would make a gesture toward fore
ing a final vote on the bill. and
then join the movement to lay 1t
aside until the next session Of Con-
gress.
