BLANTON AND BLOOM
 EXCHANGING WALL0PS
Senators Engage in Fistic Brawl But Little Dam-
 age Is Done

Washington, Feb. 15 (Pl-Fighting words were exchanged again today at the capitol. but again there were no very serious physical con- sequences.
 This time it was Representative resentative Thomas Blanton of Texas who got into a milling match and although some blows actually landed, the scuffle was short and indccisive.
 They fell out at meeting of the District of Columbia committee, dur ing a hearing on a bill favored by Blanton, to compel Sunday closing in the capital. Blanton rushed Bloom after the latter had accused him of making untrue statements, and in the confusion a table was overturned and papers strcwn over the floor while most of the specta- tors scrambled to safety. One wom- an, Miss H. Pitts of Washington. found refuge by mounting a chair and from that vantage point offered up a prayer that the strife might cease.
 Others 'ntervened with physical force between the combatants and they soon were separated.
 It was the third time within as many days that onc-round encoun- ters had developed between members of congress. Today's match was conceded first honors so far as ac- tion was concerned, the encounters between Senators Glass and Wheeler and Representatives Tincher and Strong last week having ended short of material violence.
 Blanton is a member of the com mittee holding the hearing today, but Bloom is not. The former was witness when Bloom, who is in terested in several Broadway thea ters, rose and said as a member of congress he objected to certain questions. Blanton immediately took issue, and said Blooms attitude showed that New York city motion picture interests were blocking the bill.
 Bloom replied that Blanton was making statements that were mot true.' and the Texan rushed him. When the two were separated the big Texan had Bloom pinned down to a table. Apparently neither was much the worse for the struggle.

New York, Feb. Is tP,-Henry Ford is "too busy living" to make a will. he says in a Detroit story to the New York American.
 The motor king believes his enter prises are being guided so that they will continue without interruption after his death. Any business" he told the American in an interview. Eff it is built on proper lines. is not dependent on any one individual.
 Money is counterfeit wealth." Ford asserts. Tt is not the real thing at all.
 The only use money is to me is that l am able to experiment in dif- ferent lines for ways and means to make life more vable," he is quoted.
 None of his money will go to any foundation or endowment, Ford as- serts. Endowment is an opiate to imagination, a drug to initiative" he maintains.
 The auto manufacturer discloses his belief in the theory Of reincarna- tion in the interview. Tt seems q most remarkable philosophy and ex- plains many things. he says. No, I have no desire to know, what, or who. once was; or what. or who, I shall be in the ages to come.
 This belief in immortality makes present living the more attractive" he adds. We are all here in life for one purpose-to get experience. We are all getting it, and We shall all use it somewhere"
