BALKY MEMBER
BROUGHT C. O.P.
LOSS IN SENATE
Vermont Man Got Revenge
by Swinging Posts to
Insurgents.
BY RAY TUCKER

WASHINGTON, Dec. 23.-Porter
H. Dale, President Coolidge'S own
senator from Vermont, was re-
Sponsible for the situation that
forced G. o. P. leaders to give i'm
portant committee assignments to
Senate insurgents, it was learned
today.
The rebellious group. which holds
the balance Of power in almost
every worthwhile committee, was
not placed In control because the
Old Guard wanted it, but because
President Coolidge's neighbor took
this opportunity to get even for
several Sights imposed on him by
administration spokesman.
Held Key Position
It was his stubborn refusal to ac-
cept the Craftsmanship Of Public
Lands and Surveys Committee that
forced the leaders to turn this post
over to Senator Nye Of North Da-
kota, who is not only a f1rst-year
dedgling, but also an insurgent.
AS 1t turned out, Dale was the
key man of the whole Senate re-
organization. Had he given up his
Civil Service Committee chairman
ship for that on public lands and
surveys, Skilful juggling of commit
tee assignments might have retained
absolute control in the hands of
the regulars.
Seniority rules had left Dale and
Nye as ranking members on public
lands, with the Vermonter eligible
for the craftsmanship first. But
Dale refused to quit his civil service
post, thus leaving the other COM
mittee to Nye.
Watson Begs Acceptance s.
With tears in his eyes, Jim" Wat
son of Indiana of the Pules Com
nittee begged Dale to take the pub
lie lands Craftsmanship so that Nye
would not get it. To western in
terests this committee is of great
Importance; it was the one that
conducted the famous Teapot Dome
investigation.
But the Vernonter would not
bulge. He probably recalled that
when he entered the Senate. the
only assignment he craved was
membership on banking and cur
rency. The leaders laughed at his
request, Watson among them, and
gave him grievance.
He also remembered the Admin
istration's abortive attempt to op-
pose his reelection in 1926 with a
man closer to the President
politically.
"We1l give you banking and
currency-anything you want" Of
fered Watson, as he painted a
gloomy picture of insurgency
rampant and victorious. Dale re-

WOOD FIANCE IS
 SOCIETY PUZZLE
Identity Of Sir Donald Thurs
 field in Doubt

New York, Dec. s tPl-Society was curious today over the identity of the man to whom Mrs. Marguerite k. Wood Of this city and Millbrook, \. Y.. was engaged.
 On Monday her father, Dwight S. Richardson, said she was engaged to Sir Donald Thursticld, whom he identified as member of the Brit ish army and diplomatic service, On Tuesday Mir. Richardson said cable adviCeS had been received telling Of the killing of Sir Donald while on Ukraine.
 AdviCes from Moscow, however, said the Russian foreign office and the Norwegian minister who IS rep resentlng British interests in Rus sia have had no report of the kill ing.
 Available British reference books do not list any Sir Donald Thursfeld, but Richardson K. Wood, Mrs. Woods son, speaking for his mother, 't'''i ''i I'clitiI'i iit'l b'til Npl MI $ anonymously for the British govern ment for the past 20 years and was known only by number. He said It was not customary for the British diplomatic service to give out in- formation regarding members en- gagged in secret service work.
 Richardson Wood declared he had sought information but had been told there was mo such person" as Sir Donald. He said Sir Donald at taincd his title through a series of deaths in his family. which he said he understood was founded during the time of Queen Elizabeth. Wood described his mothers tancc as d bachelor, about A. years old. Repeating the story of the killing as related by Dwight S. Richardson ' Wood said Sir Donald and younger brother. Arthur Thursfield, were sent 10 Russia on a secret mission, despite the break in relations be- ! tween inc countries, and that the, were both wounded in Moscow. The younger brother died of his wounds in London, Wood said. but Sir Don aid disappeared. 4 faithful Hindu retainer who had been sent 10 search for him, reported his death.
 Wood said his mother and Sir ibonald first met in England in 1909, renewing the acquaintance last sum Mcr when the Euglishman visited this country. Sir Donald had planned to return 10 this country to be mar lied December 20, he said.

 All Over the City

No particular locality has been favored by the man, who at first chose busy spots in the center or the city, but has more recently made his attacks in less trequented spots. The public library. the rail- road station. the vicinity Of Central High school and the vestibule of ST Augustine's church were among tho spots he selected to stab girls as he bumped into them in passing Three of the stabbings were in or near the library.
 The only instance in which two young women were stabbed tho same day was on August 13, 1920. when half an hour after fl year old girl had been attacked near Stat" street. q girl of 16 was stabbed at the railroad station, six blocks away.
