CRUISER BILL
Up SENATE
House Recessed To.
day; Relief Appears
Abandoned

WASHINGTON, Jan. 26.-CP)-The
senate has disposed OF two Of a vex-
ing trio OF problems that confronted
IL at the outset of this session, Boul-
der Dam and the Kellogg treaty
faced, and the third. the cruiser con-
struction bill. today with the belief
that a vote was q matter OF only a
few days. The house has gone along
plaeidly enough. disposing Of appro-
priation bills and other routine mat
tiers with only minor delays, and to-
day recessed.
Congress has apparently abandoned
all idea of doing any law making on
farm relief and tariff revision al this
session, since a special session seems
certain. Senators and representa-
tives are taking comfort now in the
feeling that if any supply measures
are caught in the last minute am,
there Il time 20 take fare Of them
in the congress to come.
Hearing on tariff revision, begun
early in January, have gone steadily
forward and although Saturdays were
originally set as a holiday by the
house ways and means committee
every one Of them has seen the com
mittee 1t work and today was no eK-
ception.
One farm bill. that az Senator Nc
Nary, Of Oregon. has been introduced
at this session but it has not been
brought up and apparently will not
be. This measure calling for a farm
board, is said TO have administration
approval. but how Herbert Hoover
will look on il is not known.
Committees today generally in
recess, although on the house side
hearir & on the bill TO prolong the
life Of the radio commission n year
were scheduled and the senate pub
lie lands committee had arranged 70
hear the Walsh report on the Sin
clair royalty oil leases in the Salt
Greek field.
Opposition 10 the cruiser construc-
ton bill has apparently conferred on
the time clause requiring cOnstruc-
ton Of the Is cruisers and one air
craft carrier TO begin in three years.
President Coolidge wants this time
limit taken out and 50 does Senator
and those who oppose other
sections Of the measure. or the bill
in its entirety, have rallied behind

rounded the corner OF the house and
came to the stable yard John had
couple of rooms over the stables. and
thither he made his way. leaving Emily
to fuss around Bolt, the chauffeur, who
was washing the Dex-Mayo.
Arrived in his sitting room, he sank
into deck chair and filled his pipe
with Mr. Bywaters special mixture.
Then. putting his feet up on the table,
he stared hard and earnestly at the
photograph of Pat on the matelplece.,
It was a pretty face that he was look
ing atone whose charm not even
fashionable modern photographer OF
the type that prefers to depict his SIT
tiers in a gray fog. with most OF their
features hidden from view, could alto
gether obscure. In the eyes. little
slantine, there was Puck-like look,
and the curving lips limited demurely
at amusing secrets. The nose had that
appealing yet provocative air that
slight tip tiltedness gives. 1t seemed to
challenge, and, at the same time, to
withdraw.
This was the latest of the Pat photo
! graphs. and she had given it to him
three months ago, just before she left to
go and stay with friends at LIE Touquet
And now she was coming home. q.
John Carroll was one of those solid
persons who do not Waver in their
loyalties He had always been in love
with Pat. and he always would be-,
though he would have had to admit
that she gave him very little encourage
ment. There had been period when,
he being IS and she 10, Pat had Law
ished on him all the worship OF small
girl for big boy who can wiggle his
ears and is not afraid of cows. But
since then her attitude had changed. Her
manner toward him nowadays alter
mated between that of a nurse toward
child who is not quite right in the head
and that of the owner of clumsy, but
rather likeable, dog.
Nevertheless, he loved her. And she
was coming home. =. .
John sat up suddenly He was slow
thinker. and only now did 1t occur to
him lust what the position of affairs
With this internal Heud going on be
tween Uncle Lester and the old colonel.
she would probably look on him as in
the enemys camp and refuse to see or
speak to him.
The thought chilled him to the mar
row. Something, he felt, must be done,
and swiftly. And with a flash Of in
spiration of kind that rarely came to
him, he saw what that something was.
He must go up to London this after
noon. tell her the facts and throw him
self on her clemency. If he could con-
vince her that he was whole-heartedly
pro-colonel and regarded Uncle Lester
as the logical successor to Dr. Crippen
and the Bath murderer,
things might straighten themselves.
Once the brain gets working, there is
no knowing where it will stop. The
very next instant there had come to
John Carroll q thought so new and
hreath-taking that he uttered an audible
gasp.
