A course Of procedure for dealing

Borah Is Silent.
Senator Walsh, Democrat, Montana,

they were within their rights In ques-

that Borah sides with them.
However, Borah has not made public

HOSPITAL VISIT DEFER RED FOR
 TURKEY FEAST
Cha pe el at Institution Is Beautifully Appointed
 This Season

Whether illness can be cured by the will and the faith of the af- flicted is a controversial question, but certainly medical treatment can be deferred. Clifford Furness, aged T. and his sister Delphine, 5, have demonstrated that the science or medicine can be made to wait on the joys of the Yuletide. Both children postponed removal of their tonsils until after they had stuffed themselves with turkey dinner and the many good things to eat that Santa Claus brought them They entered St. Ann's hospital this morning. After their operation this forenoon both were confident they would be capable of doing full justice to another feast New Years day.
 Observed at Hospital
 Christmas was observed at the hospital. Christmas evening a group of singers led by Mrs. w E. Ellis visited the institution and pro- gram of carols was given to the joy Of the inmates. In the nurses rest or recreation room was a Christmas tree, loaded with gifts for members of the hospital staff.
 The chapel is wonderfully ap- pointed. HaloS around statues or the altar are lighted with small electric globes. In one corner ol the room, beside the altar is 6 most artistic representation of the Holy Family on the first Christmas Day, Mary and Joseph kneeline beside the little Savior in hi. crib. Above blazes forth the Stal Of Bethlehem, as suspended bJ itself from the sky, and on near by hillsides, well simulated to ma. ture and done in fine perspective are statues of shepherds and sheer with angels lowering over all.
 Lighting effects are realistic anC charming.
 Persons entering the hospital arg l greeted with Merry Christmas ir sparkling silver letters over tht entrance to St. Anns' alcove. Tht statue of the institutions patror saint is beautified in harmony witt the season.

Law Proposed to Divert
 Gas Taxes to Airports

BIRMINGHAM, Ala, Dec. 26.- Gasoline taxes are used exclusively in many States to build roads, and now it is proposed to use taxes on gasoline sold at airports for the advancement of aviation.
 J. w. Wills, City Attorney of Birmingham, has drafted an aerial navigation act for submission to the State Legislature and has sent it to the United States Depart men of Commerce for approval. One of it's provisions is that gaso- line tax collected by the State on fuel sold at municipal airports be appropriated to the airport for maintenance.

NEW YORK, Dec. 26. = Will Mazda Lupescu go down in history as another du Barry or Pompa- dour? Will historians of the fu- ture place the red-haired charmer Of King Carol, of Rumania, in the same category as those beauties Of other days who ruled the destinies of Franca?
 With the astonishing news that Mazda Lupescu is the chatelaine Of the royal palace in Bucharest comes the information that the official coronation of the King may be indefinitely postponed through it. The people of Rumania are beginning to wonder what will hap pen now that the King has flung his gauntlet in the face of his en- tire kingdom and humiliated the entire Rumanian royal family by his open preference for the woman for whom he once renounced the throne and went into exile.
 Onlookers are wondering If hu- man nature has altered much and whether the subjects of the King will become reconciled to the thought of acknowledging the pow CT and position of their Kings mis- tress as in the days of Louis XIV and Louis KY. And will the Ru- manians have the affection fol Lupescu that the people of Englanc had for merry madcap Nell Gwynn the mistress of Charles II?
 Those who know Lupescu dis. claim on her part any desire tC become a du Barry or Pompadour They say that her affection fol the King is real and is not actuat ed by any wish for power or dom nation But the more cynical be lieYe that a woman cannot resis the temptation of attempting tt influence politics, if she is in !; position to do so. Up till now at any rate, she has not attempted to exert any undue influence. Tn people of Rumania would prefe however that the former Helen O Greece take her place as Carol consort, but she proved adam ant in all attempts to effect a re conciiation with the King
