REVlRY SPIRIT
 IN NEW ORLEANS
Maldi Gras Comes to Climax in
 Pulde d Rex

New Orleans, Feb. 31 WeThe spirit of revelry swept throughout New Orleans today q mardt gras came to its magnificent climax in the parade of Rex. king of the car nival. who headed . gorgeous parade through the city while thousands of persons shouted greetinss- :.
 Sits On Throoe
 sitting on . throne of gold and purple. with sparkling jewels all about him. Rex headed . process sion of 20 sally decorated noats. He was seated at the top of pyramidal stair. surrounded by canopy. and as the surging thousands gave noisy ey- pression to their greetings he bowed and waved in response.
 Rex. who k supposed to have journeyed here from Arabia. ar- ried early today aboard his royal yacht and immediately went to the den of his courtiers from which he emerged later to lend his regal pres ence to tho principal mardi gras parade.
 His march through the city was triumphant. The streets were dec- orated with flags and bunting and a large portion of those who paid him homage were masked and attired in garments presenting in the aggre- gate all the colors of the rainbow.
 Walker Gets Keys
 While most of the bands in the pageant play 'If Ever I Cease to Love Thee" the kings own anthem. Rex proceeded to the City hall where he was given the keys of the city by Mayor Arthur J. o'Keefe and present to Mayor James J. Walker, of New York. who came to New Or leans on a special invitation by the carnival king.
 Mayor Walker was delighted to make the acquaintance of Rex who was one of the most distinguished persons the mayor had met in ramblinss in the United States and abroad.
 Rex then moved majesttcally to the Boston club where he was pre- sented to his queen. He drank to her health and success and then re- turned to his den to await the ball of Rex tonight.
 Leon Irwin was Rex this year and his queen was Miss Betty Watson, daughter of Eli T. Watson. who was Rex last year.
 The subject of the pageant was Transportation" and the 20 floats presented its progress since earliest times. It ranged all the way from Mercury to mythology fame pushing through the heavens on some celes- tial mission to the modern airplane.
 Following Rex was the parade If the Krewe of Druids which pictur- ized the deities of mankind" run ming the gamut from the Egyptian. sun god to the Christians god.
 The parade of Comus the ''Merrie Monarch" will be held tonight which with a number of halts. will bring the carnival season to close. Mardi gras, which means shrove Tuesday, is celebrated preparatory to the period of fasting and prayer for Lent.
 This Is the one day of the year when masking is permitted and a majority of the opportunity. Dur ing mardi gras day customs permits young women to kiss persons of the opposite sex and one of their fav- orite practices is to join hands sud- denly and form ring around an unsuspectfng man and kiss him.
 This is leap year, but its effect could not be told by observers.

Coolidge UnfavOrnbIe


 Washington, Feb. 21 R - En- gineering reports on the Reid flood bill control have led President Coolidge to believe the measure ts unavoidable and unnecessarily ex- travagant and he intends to confer with housemembers to otbain an agreement upon a different plan.
 Too Much Money
 Army engineers have told the president the Reid bill would in- volve the expenditure of perhaps $500, 100000, which is possibly four times as much as the cost of the program presented to congress by the administration. In addition, the president has been told that the measure would impose upon him the responsibility for making a large number of decisions as to work and design, most of them of the type which only expert professional au- thority should reach.
 The expenditure and the discre- tionary provisions of the measure draw objections from the president. who is having . fuller study of it undertaken by the engineer corps.
