called to the stand by Chairman Nye of
the Senate committee Just before the
hearing closed.
Mr.. Davis pointed out that there were
candidates for seven Offices on the
Brown-Davis ticket. Senator Dill of
Washington asked if it would be fair to
describe the total by seven and say that
for Mr.. Davis.
Satisfied With One-seventh.
Mr.. Davis said that he would be con-
tent to be responsible for that amount
of expenditure. He insisted, however,
that he had no idea such a consider
able sum had been expended for the
Brown-Dayis ticket.
TT is really more than I thought had
been expended" said Mr.. Davis.

expended for Senator Grundy, Mr.
Davis principal opponent, a total of
about $332,000, of which Mr.. Grundy
contributed himself 1921 900.

titled that Mr.. Bonitz had contributed
something like $4,000 to the campaign.
Secretary Davis told the committee
that he had met Mr.. Bonitz about
year ago, during the mayoralty cam
paign. He said Mr.. BonitZ had told
him that he wanted to help in the
coming campaign. At that time, Mr..
Davis said, they were discussing run

and treasurer of the regular Republican
organization of Western Pennsylvania,
which supported the Davis-Brown
ticket, testified that Mr.. BonitZ had
agreed to see that the Davis-Brown
campaign was financed in that part OF
the State.
Says Funds Hard to Find.
The witness told the committee that
Mr.. Bonitz had found it difncult to
raise money for the campaign largely

A bill approved by the National
Capital Park and Planning Commis-
sion, which is designed to wipe out
forever, Washington's alleys, now is be-
fore the House and Senate District
committees.
It asks for an appropriation of $780,
600 year for five years. These appro-
priations, together with 100000 now
standing to the credit of the United
States Housing Corporation, would form
a revolving Sfund to be used by the
housing corporation in purchasing and
replatting alley property. The appro-
priations are to be in the nature Of
loans that will be repaid when the
property has been replatted and sold.
The bill introduced in the Senate
by Senator Capper of Kansas and in
the House by Representative Bowman
of West Virginia, prohibits the use of
an alley house as q dwelling after
July /, 1910.
Under the bill the housing corpora
ton, under the President, would be
authorized not only to obtain alley
property through gift, purchase outright
or by condemnation, but ito lease, rent,
maintain, equip, manage, exchange or
sell any such lands, buildings or Struc-
lures and to aid in providing, equipping.

REBEL RETREAT
SIGNALS ENDING
OF CHINA'S WAR
Manchurian Ruler Joins
Nationalist General in
Drive for Peace.
BY ID. G. BESS
limited Press staff Correspondent

PEIPING, China, Sept. 22.-The
arrival today outside Peiping Of the
powerful Manchurtan armies Of
General Chang Hsueh-Liang virtu-
ally was a signal for the ending Of
China's civil war.
Complete victory for Chang, who
sided with General Chang Kali
Shek, the young Nationalist leader,
forecast by students of China, and
is seen as a triumph for the younger
generation of war lords. 1t is ex-
pected to be an important step in
Changes efforts to united China as
a republic.
Both Chang and Chang are of
the modernistic school of Chinese
politicians who form the Nationalist
party, which most students of af-
fairs of China agree is the only
gro"p capable of uniting the coun-
try and fostering progress.
Feng'S Forces in Retreat
Although fierce fighting continued
between national government troops
from Marking, under Chang, and
the rebel forces of General Feng
Yu-Hsiang, peace apparently is not
far off, as Feng'S forces retreat
slowly.
Chang'S Manchurian forces were
approaching Peiping from Hopei,
awaiting complete withdrawal of the
rebel forces of General Yen Hsi-
Shan before taking over the city.
Feng and Yen headed the north
ern revolt against Marking and the
intervention of Chang apparently
frees the Nationalist from the
menace of Communist outbreaks in
the south and military opposition
in the north.
Father Is Assassinated
Chang defeated Chang Tso-Lin,
father of the present Manchurian
ruler, to establish the Nationalist
regime at Marking. Chang Hsuek-
Liang became ruler when his father
was assassinated and his joining
Chang was not surprising because
he always has shown sympathy to-
ward the Nationalist general.
The siding of Chang with Chang
was the signal for Yen to start re-
treating.
