the Plaza. Passing a tattered United States flag held aloft by the veterans, the marine commR1der snapped a salute and ordered ''eyes right"
 The marines carried rifles, bay onets, wooden batons, and two- foot lengths of black rubber hose. They wore steel helmets.
 They marched into the basement under the capitol rotunda, and did q few squads right and present arms. By that time Glassford had been advised of the situation and had the order revoked. Ire marines went back to their bar racks.
 Two hours later Curtis also re- voked his order to have the capi- tol grounds cleared. Only the t50 foot strip of pavement directly in front of the building was cleared. The veterans took up the march on the sidewalks just beyond.
 The uce-president rescinded his order after Senator Bingham. repn. Conn, had teiephoned a lnufn- ber of high officials and conferred with the vice-president. Bingham took the view that any effort to drive the veterans from the grounds would simply give them more de- termination and perhaps bring thoushhds of reinfotcements. The regular B. P. F., some 12,000 strong now, has been completely overshadowed by the capitol dera- onstrators. Several hundred have joined the capitol continsent at periods, but there has been no gen- eral movement.
 Possibility of a definite alliance between the two groups was seen in conferences between Robertson and Doak Carter, B. E. F. chief of Staff. Commander-in.C Chief Wa ters of the B. E. r. also was ex- pected to visit Robertson.
 The B. E. F. has contributed food to the California battalion but its fare has been slim because the B. E. F. looks out for it's own first.
 Beans and vats of potato stew are brought in from the bonus camps in steaming vats and piled upon the sidewalks just across from the capitol. There the men line uI with their tin cups between re. lays of marching.

went to his corner where Manager Sol,

e N. To Renew
Fight For Extension
Through Carolinas

Despite the final decision handed
down from the United States supreme
court, officials of the Piedmont &
Northern railroad have definitely de-
cided to renew the fight for the right
to extend their line through North
and South Carolina, according to cur
rent reports.
The case, only recently argued, was
brought before the highest tribunal
on a writ of certiorari directly from
the district court, seven steam rail-
roads joining with the Interstate
Commerce Commission in asking that
the lower court be sustained.
In reviewing the case, the supreme
court held that the P. & N. is engag-
ed in general transportation of freight
and passengers in interstate commerce
and, therefore, came within the inter-
state commerce act.
Continuing the court said:
THE petitioners railway is of such
importance in interstate commerce and
renders a service so predominantly de-
voted to the handling of interstate
freight in connection with steam car
riers, and completes with steam trunk
lines in such manner, that in view of
the declared policy of the act we can
not hold it an 'interurban' railway
within the exemption of the transport
tation act of 1920"
The decision of Justice Roberts de-
tailed the history of the litigation from
the time it was first brought to the
southern courts, and consumed nine
typewriter pages of legal stationery.
Officials of the company said as
soon as they receive the petition of the
supreme court denying the right of
the electric line to build proposed ex-
tensions without the permission Of the
Interstate Commerce Commission,
that they will Immediately begin con-
ferences looking to the future policy
of the railroad in the attempt to build
new links that has already extended
ove a period Of years.

Some day next week,

Without duties;
And during that hour

Without a telephone

Or a callers chair
Or a book or a radio.
And during that sixty minutes
Of freedom
l am going to think!
l wonder what it will be like!
Perhaps the unwonted exercise
May produce a real poem,
Or a real essay or criticism,

Or I may go to sleep from exhaustio,
After thinking for five minutes
In any case it will be a great gain!
