Senator King, Oem., Utah),
leaped up to protest against so Seri-
Gus a charge. Hurley shouted:
Get the record"
The Hawes-Cutting bill would
establish independence progressive
ly in five years after enactment. It
was to this provision that Hurley
objected.
No Element of Courage
''That bill has not in it one ele-
ment of courage" Hurley said. "It
is neither fish nor fowl. Be cour-
ageous enough to give them indie
pendence on the day the bill is
passed and let the revolution occur
under their flag instead of ours.
What has been built up by an
expenditure of treasure and blood,
you would endeavor to tear down in
five years"
Then" interrupted HAYES, "you
don't withdraw the word 'cowardly?"
mo sir, DON'T Hurley replied.
Il know you and Senator Cutting
well know that there is nothing per-
sonal in my statement"
Halves interposed:
There is not line in the bill
that juStif1es that statement"
BY that time sightseers and 9TH
ers wandering in the adjacent cor
ridors had hurried to the committee
room whence Hurley's voice came in
an angry pitch.
Nothing Personal
"That is your opinion about the
BILL" he said to Halves. ct want to
say to the SENATOR" Hurley con-
tinued, that I may be a little
abrupt, but he should understand
there is nothing personal. But you
have said to Filipino witnesses that
they did not dare oppose independ-
ence and go back to the islands"
King interjected that Hurley had
made a serious implication"
THAT is not an implication, :"
Hurley fired back at King. THAT
is a fact. Get the record"
II want to say after your ex-
plosion," King continued, that I
should be very sorry if you would
remain indefinitely secretary of war
with the islands under you.'

The last undefeated team in the
Pine County Baseball League was
tipped from the pinnacle Sunday when
Markville lost a game to Sturgeon
Lake by the one-sided score of II
to 1. The loss plunged Markville to
third place in the percentage col
umn with a percentage of $50, to 800
for Brook Park who is in second
place. Sturgeon Lake and Willow
River are tied for first place with
each having a percentage of 1888.

naming games on the schedule.

Three men from International Falls
miracuously escaped serious injury or
death early Tuesday morning when
their truck loaded with fish left the

border at 10 p. m. Monday and we're
headed for the Twin Cities with three
tons of fish-pike, pickerel and white
fish. Young had driven the truck to
Carlton and then Nathan Segal took
hold of the wheel. Evide atly he was
sleepy for when a few miles out of
Sandstone at $3.50 a. m. suddenly the
truck left the pavement, but it all
happened so quickly that. his father
sitting at his side did not have time
to right the truck. They were not
meeting other cars and there was no
obstruction.
The senior Segal was cut on top
OF his head and about the legs but
after surgical attention at Hinckley
was able to be about again. The
two young men escaped with bruises.
Fish were scattered in all directions

Segal truck was going at a speed of
about 80 miles an hour when the
accident happened.
