Fire Works Light Democratic Pcnc Dove of Peace Hovers

Everybody went to the Progressive Democratic
picnic" last night looking for fireworks. That the
dove of peace lowered in the air, seemed bit or
a disappointment to some doughty members of the
lighting ranks but Rosae Jones Dill who this week
cast her lot with the "progressyes" seems deter.
mined to heal whatever breach existed. Demo,
cratic women with the welfare of the party heart
have not time to look back, only forward" she SAID
and proceeded to play the part of official hostess
with all of the determined dignity which won for
her the title of General Resale back in suffrage
days, masked under smile which the stubbornesI
Democratic mule could not resist.
Just the right atmosphere for an outdoor dinner,
gobs and gobs of fried chicken the kind that
VIII Rogers talks about without necks and wings,
watermelon, cakes and everything else that keeps
people awake at night disappeared from baskets
that were brought hlled to overlooking.
Senator c. c. Dill and Congressman Sam b. Hill
both ignored the headlines which the women have
had in the past week. Both confined their talks to
the work accomplished the past year in Official
Washington for their constituents

Dr.. H. Foster Balm
Back from Colombia

Very much like Berkeley, California, from a
typographical standpoint is Bogato, Colombia, says
DR. II. Foster Balm, head of the American Institute
of Metallurgical Engineers. Spokane's guest this
week. DR.. Balm has Just returned from Colombia s
capital high in the Andes mountains of South
America. accessible only by airplane, where he has
been the representative of the United States Gov
eminent commission sitting to revise the oil
laws of the country. Standard Oil of New Jersey
is extensively interested in Colombia, especially in
the Magdallena Valley where the only developed
oil fields are and through which is the only trans
port ingress into Colombia. Mining has been active
in Colombia at Bogata for just three hundred years.
said DR. Balm in addressing the Northwest Mining
Association Monday, at which Frank M. Smith pre-
sided.
Dr. Balm lauded the good will that has been ere
ated in South American ports by American COM
merce and American goods and says that the anti

Fight Washington Speedway Plans;
Funk Sides with PROPERTY Owners

Is Spokane going to make d speedway out of
Washington street will the powers that be spare
the citys beautiful trees and teach motorists that
careful driving is the city's rule crowded thor
oughfares?
Mayor Leonard Fund yesterday cast his lot with
the property owners on Washington street who are
protesting the cutting of the As and 50-year-old
trees which means much to the city from a civic
viewpoint.
IF narrow the proposed highway two feet
each side the trees can be preserved" Mr.. Funk
said Citizens believe that there is altogether too
much ruthless destruction of trees in the state OF
Washington, if the protests that have come to the
city hall this week from local residents indica-
tive of the general feeling on the matter
1t is thought that in the choice of insisting on
careful driving cutting down trees and making
speedways of the Streets the former should de
mand the attention of city officials. The lack OF
trees on speedway is no insurance against acct
dent.

Trotzky Still In
Russia; Is Denied
Entry to Germany

LONDON, Feb. 7--P-Unofficial
reports from Moscow and Berlin to-
day seemed 10 indicate at least two
things-that Leon Trotzky is still
in Soviet territory, and that persons
approached the Berlin government
and asked informally II he could
come 10 Germany.
These were told it would be use
less for the Soviet to apply for q
consular visa which would permit
Trotzky to enter Germany. Domes-
tic political conditions and the fear
for Russo-Germsn relations in event
Of his assassination or untoward po-
litical moves of his own we're as
signed as reasons.
On the other hand certain German
officials denied there had been Off
cial action by either Germany or the
Soviet in the matter. although ac-
knowledEing informal feelers from
Moscow and the Russian embassy at
Berlin.
The assurances that Trotzky was
still on Soviet territory-where he
is said to be i'll with malaria-came
from sources usually considered re-
liable. in Moscow.

Bills
both HOUSES
Is Expected To
Clear Cruiser Act
During Day

WASHINGTON. Feb. 7.-F-Both
houses had appropriation bills on
their calendars today although the
amended cruiser bill cana first on
the house program. II was expected
to be disposed Of in short order and
back of it waited the naval supply
bill. The senate had before it the
s447, oo0, 900 war department appro-
pristions bill, with passage in sight
before adjournment for the day.
The war department bin was taken
up yesterday, the Caraway bill to
regulate future trading in cotton
and grains being shelved for IL. This
was seen as an indication that both
the senate and house plan to con-
centrate on supply measures.
Four Of these measures are in
conference, the first deficiency bill
and those for the agriculture and in
terror departments and for inde-
pendent offices. The house has yet
to pass the s347. 600, 900 naval supply
bill but may send il 10 the senate
before the week is out. Two other
appropriation measures are on the
house list, the second deficiency bill
and that for legislative expense
funds.
The house appropriations commit
tee faced the second deficiency bill
today and ways and means had the
usual tariff hearings but otherwise
there was a slight lapse Of activities
off the floors. The house interstate
commerce committee was concerned
with a bridge measure. military af-
fairs and Indian affairs faced its
regular meeting.
Charges OF Encouragement Of In
dian reservations and of abuse of
Indian children were made yesterday
before the senate Indian affairs COM
mittee but today that body had no
meeting scheduled. The senate in
terstate commerce committee had
arranged to 20 ahead with consid-
GRAFTON Of the White bill to prolong
the life Of the radio commission for
a year. The measure has already
been reported favorably BY the house
merchant marine committee. and an
effort is being made to make some
disposition Of it at this session.
