WASHINGTON, March 2.-This con-
gress will go down into history as
The Fighting SiXty-ninth," but it
appears to have pulled through with
out having to call out the Great Mace.
The Great Mace is the symbol of
authority in the House of Representa-
tives which is supposed to paralyze
the arm of congressman as he hauls
off to sock a comrade in the jaw
to shut his mouth when the speaker
can't, and to convert him from a raw
ing madman on his feet to a meek per-
son sitting quietly in his seat.
1t is some four feet high, bundle
twined ebony rods symbolical of
silver bands and surmounted by sill
yer eagle with spread wings perched
on a silver globe, whenever the house
is in session it reposes in pedestal
alongside the speakers desk.
And whenever there is pronounced
disorder on the floor which threatens
to increase, the tall and husky A. G.
Jordan, assistant sergeant at arms,
makes a move for it, although these
occasions are rare indeed in these
days when there is no bar downstairs
in the House restaurant. most con-
gressmen prefer to fight in committee
rooms, where there is no Great Mace.
1t was nearly eight years ago, soon
after Jordan was placed in charge of
the weapon, that the Great Mace was
last used, even then, the mace wasn't
toted down the aisle. A mem
