BATTLE AWAITS
MERGER BILL
REPORT
Norris Expected to Join With
Capper and Blaine; Debate
Due in Two Weeks

An overhauling in Senate
debate of the whole electric
power situation in the Capt.
tai became almost a certainty
today as the Senate District
Committee made ready its
favorable report on the street
car merger measure.
The expeditions printing of the
revised bill has been ordered so
all committee members and Sen
ators generally may begin a new
study of it's complicated pro.
visions.
Fight Assured
There is little ahead of it on
the District calendar in the Sen.
ate, and consideration may come
within two weeks.
The statement by Chairman
Arthur Capper, that he will join
Senator John j. Blaine (R0, of
Wisconsin, in a minority report
on at least one feature of the
bill, virtually assures a Senate
fight over the power issue"
These two committee members
probably will be joined by Sen
ator George w. Norris CRO, of
Nebraska, who has long been in
terested in the power and light
conditions in the Capital, and is
the chief advocate of a municipal
power plant.
Clause Held Unfair
AS it will be reported, the bill
carries a clause continuing in
part existing powe arrangements
between the Washington Railway
and Electric Company and the
Potomac Electric Power Company
and power for the consolidated
street railways would be fur
niShed hereunder.
For a 15-year period the Pub.
lie Utilities Commission would
regulate terms governing 81 per
cent of the power arrangement,
but the existing contract would
govern the remaining SO per cent
Senators Capper and Blaine re-
gard this clause as unfair" and
around it will come possibly the
liveliest interchanges in the ap,
preaching Senate debate.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 4. = If one
feels the need of a pleasant Is
minutes in the quiet, unperturbed
company of a New England aristo-
crat who will treat him well and
not burden him with information,
call upon Secretary of the Navy
Adams is recommended.
For adroit handing of visitors
who come to learn what the navy
is doing, Adams has no peer. He
makes them feel at home, learns all
they know about subjects that in
terest them, and tells them moth
ing.
OF all the members of the cab
met he probably is the easiest to
see. Newspapermen can always
talk with him provided only that
some navy officer doesn't want to
see him first. Then they must wait
for the naval officers, who see him
in accordance with rank. That is,
an admiral can have an appoint
ment with the secretary ahead of
captain, captain ahead of
commander ana so on. The news
papermen follow the ensigns.
No matter how many times a day
one goes to see the secretary, Adams
always greets the visitor with
handshake. If there are several in
the party, he shakes hands with
all of them. Then he sits comfort
ably in his swivel chair, swings his
feet up onto the window ledge, puts
the tips of his fingers together and
usually begins to ask questions. He
insists on looking visitor squarely
in the face. He has an old fash
ioned telephone-not the French or
hand type-on his desk and it is
always getting in the line of his
vision. He always moves it.
When a conference with the press
is over and the newspapermen have
finished answering all of Adams
questions, he bids everyone goodbye
pleasantly.
Come again." he says, when
you want some more erroneous in
formation"
Adams, the aristocrat, undergoes
the leveling influence, just as the
admirals and the captains, in the
navy department cafeteria. There
is no rank" there. The secretary,
Admiral Pratt and any other
ranking officer has to take a place
in line and carry his tray just like
gobs or stenographers. They are
in one line first come first served.
Adams, appropriately for Bos-
tonian and a naval man, has a
fondnesS for baked beans.
He pays his own check, Often he
eats alone. Other times he will
join a party of naval officers, who
rise as he approaches.
Don't get up, gentlemen" he
says and seats himself.
But he is not adverse even to sit
ting down at one end of the press
table.

WILSON WILL. Be
fine ASSET FOR
BROOKLYN TEAM
BY LEO ii. PETERSEN
United Press Staff Correspondent

NEW YORK, Feb. 4.-The pur-
chase Of Lewis Hack Wilson from
the st. Louis Cardinals gives the
Brooklyn Robins the most colorful
outfield in baseball today.
For thanking the roly-poly cen
terfielder will be Frank Lefty
O'Doul in left and Floyd CBabe)
Herman in right. They may not
form the best fielding trio in the
majors, but if Wilson displays any
thing resembling his 1880 form they
should prove one of the hardest
hitting group of gardeners modern
baseball ever has known.
The pudgy puncher of home
runs is a welcome addition TO the
Robins for they needed an out
fielder who bats right handed
Brooklyn lacked balance in the
outfield last season with three left
handed hitters-ODoul, Herman
and Johnny Frederick.
The new ball has handicapped
Wilson, but it's a pretty safe bet
that he will earn for the Robins
in two months more than was paio
for him. For fans like to see Will
son. He plays no middle course
When Hack is good, he's very gooC
and when he is bad, he's horrid
It's either the cheers of the crowd
or the jeers of the crowd for him
The same thing goes more o.
less for Herman, the boy wht
learned how to catch fly balls al
a means of self-defense. Wher
Herman isn't clicking he look
worse than a bush Lacquer, but hi
off days are few and far between
O'Doul is one of the favoritt
players of the National league. H,
is one of the most dangerous hit
ters in a pinch in the majors ant
he can go and get 'em with thu
best of outfielders.
If the three men hit this com
ing season like they did in 1890
it certainly looks like a pennan
for the Robins.
