Demonstration Ends.

As the demonstration broke up,
Glassford explained to newspaper men
the arrest Of Waters. He said the COM
mander- -ir-chief had violated regula-
tions prohibiting a demonstration, and
that when he asked Waters why he had
broken the regulations, Waters said he
did not know the men were following
him across the plaza. Glassford ap-
parently did not see the young COM
mander beckon to his men and shout,
Come on" when he led the sudden
rush through police lines.
"I asked him." said Glassford, III he
intended to be peaceful and would see
to it that his men would remain peace
full. When he gave me his assurance
to this effect, I ordered his release"
At the height of the disorder, police
roughly estimated the number OF
veterans on the steps of the Capitol and
on the plaza at 10000, including Rob

ID. c. BILL SOLVES
FINAL DIFFICULTY
Shorn Gas Holder Project Is
Vehicle for Home Loan
Funds.
A District Of Columbia bill, which did

A District Of Columbia bill, which did
not become a law itself, occupied a
prominent role In the closing hours Of
Congress last night by serving as the
vehicle for passage of an emergency
appropriation to carry out tie home
loan bank bill over which the Senate
and House had wrangled most Of the
day.
After the home loan bank bill had
gone through, the House passed and
sent to the Senate resolution appro-
priating 100000 to put the measure
into operation.
Select Street Bill
Desiring to bring the session to a
close and fearing a parliamentary OBJ
lection would be raised on the ground
the resolution should be read on three
successive days, Senate leaders decided
| to attach the emergency appropriation
TO some bill which had passed the House
earlier in the session.
Accordingly. they called up from the
calendar a bill to authorize the clos
ing of a portion Of Virginia avenue
southeast, which had passed the House
June 80. This measure was intended
| to carry out plans for the Washington
Gas Light Co. to construct new gas
holder in the Southeast section.
Senator La Toilette, Republican, OF
Wisconsin, told Chairman Jones of the
Appropriations Committee he was
strongly opposed to the passage OF this
bill. He pointed out that since the bill
was reported to the Senate, the Public
Utilities Commission had been informed
| it would not be necessary TO provide the
new gas holder at this time. The bill had
! been objected to by civic groups in the
Southeast.
Text Written Out.
Several members suggested that La
| F'ollette's objection could be met by
eliminating the entire text and title
Of the street closing bill and Substl-
tuting the language and title of the
| emergency home loan appropriation
| resolution This procedure was fol-
| lowed, but the amount of the emer-
gency appropriation was reduced from
S3O0,O00 TO S250,O00
Thus the emergency home loan ap-
preparation was passed by the Senate
and accepted by the House, but with
/ no part Of the gas holder measure re-
tanned in the bill.

He announced his plans for a new
political party 80 we can forever keep
such people as Herbert Hoover out of

The bitterness against the President
is very strong in the B. E. F. He seems
to have been set up as the symbol of
all their misfortunes.
"March Of Death" Continues.
There were other highlights in the
mornings drama-not the least of
them supplied by the Stentorianv voiced

egation Of the B. E. F: He was can

to throw in his lot with his fellow vet

country school teacher named Will
Rogers. I wired, congratulating him,
and he wired me back that he's coming
to Washington to fight for the bonus
until hell freezes over. So I gave way
to a good man."
Then Waters appeared again and an
nounced that he had had his conference
with Speaker Garner and that there
was a possibility congress would stay
in session. Then the crowd began to
break UP, swarming back to their camps
for dinner.
But all the time, never stopping for
a minute and taking no part In the
main demonstration, went the 400 CAL
ifornians across the street in their end

could stop them-not even the threat OF

Senate Yields to House
Insistence on Section
in Relief Bill.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
Here is the text Of the section Of the
emergency relief act relating to pub
licity on loans of the Reconstruction
Finance Corporation, which the Sen
ate finally accepted yesterday at the
insistence of the House:
THE Reconstruction Finance Cor
poration shall submit monthly to the
President and to the Senate and House
of Representatives (or the secretary OF
the Senate and the clerk of the House
Of Representatives, if those bodies are
not in session., report of its activi-
ties and expenditures under this sec
ton and under the Reconstruction
Finance Corporation act. together with
a statement showing the names OF the
borrowers to whom loans and advances
were made, and the amount and rate
of interest involved in each case"
The Senate yielded only after leaders
had presented their viewpoint that the
reports could actually be made avail
able to the public generally only by
further congressional action.
Speaker Garner, who has insisted
vigorously on the publicity clause,
would say only:
The language speaks for itself"
South Trimble, clerk Of the House,
with whom the reports are filed, re-
fused to commit himself for the present.
After Congress adjourns it will be his
duty to interpret the law.

BUCHAREST, July 16-The cam

election closed tonight with compare
tive quiet. only seven persons having
been killed throughout Rumarlia.
Twenty different parties have pre-
sented candidates to the voters, who
will cast their ballots tomorrow and
Wednesday.
The recent resignation of the Jorga
cabinet, leaving the country's finances
in muddle, led King Carol to appoint
an interim cabinet with Alexander
jda-Voyevod as premier and to dds
solve Parliament.
Since the last parliamentary elec-
tions, in June, 1881, when a heavy vote
was polled for Nicholas Jorga, King
Carols intimate friend, economic and
financial conditions in Rumania have
changed greatly.
Political observers are inclined to
believe that Julius Manius National
Peasant Party will get so per cent of
all votes cast and that M. Manu- will
return to the premiership.
The Communist party Of Rumania
has been branded illegal and denied
participation in the elections.
The King has ordered that the new

joined her.
In minute or two the high tide Of
anger had begun to ebb in song as
5000 voices finally joined in:
Hail, Hail, the gangs all here,
So what the hell do we care now"
It was a song that everybody knew,
that everybody could sing. But the
gusts Of anger still came intermittently
Reds Donlon, the B. E. F. master OF
ceremonies, appeared at the woman's
side to help in leading the singing.
They turned to other familiar songs.
In a hoarse roar came the old army
ballad with it's emotions stirring music,
behind which many of these men had
hiked many long miles a few years
ago. "Oh, the old gray mare, she amt
what she used to be-" And then the
climax as the massed voices sang: MY
Country, 'Tis Of Thee"
Still came the gusts Of anger in the
brief intervals between the singing. But
they grew weaker ana weaker. Inc
danger was over.
The woman came out Of the crowd.
Nobody remembers having seen her be-
fore. She gave her name as Lauretta
DArsanis and said she had been work
ing for some time as a nurse at the
Anacostia camp.
"They used to call me the flower OF
st. Theresa" she said. Il had a little

In another age her appearance at the

scribed as a miracle. Her voice stopped
the tempest-driven tide Of the B. E. F.
in by far the most critical episode since
this Heterogeneous group of former sol

The men were apparently in state Of
high nervous tension when they
marched from all the camps around
Washington to the Capitol grounds yes

ton ordered by Commander Walter w
Waters as a farewell to Congress. BY
10 a m. they were gathered about 5000

from the Capitol. 1t was intended as a
supreme effort to keep the House and

The street was clear. Along its center
were deployed thin line Of policemen.
Just what happened is not at all clear.

his aide. Capt. Doak w. Carter, stepped
out of the mass across the street. waved
their hands and yelled come en-" Ap-

|DRAF TING Of LAKES
PROCEEDING
Signing of U. S.-Canada Ac-
cord Not Expected Till
Late in Week.
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
Drafting is proceeding rapidly on the
Great Lakes seaway treaty, but State
Department officials say 1t seems un-
likely Canada and the United States
will sign until late this week at the
earliest.
This treaty, which will cover not
only the stretch of 181 miles in the St.
Lawrence between Lake Ontario and
Montreal. but all the other waterways
connecting the Great Lakes with the
Atlantic Ocean, is designed to link the
worlds most important unit of inland
waterways transportation with salt
water by 27-foot channel which will
put Duluth and Chicago into direct
communication, by large ocean steamers
with all the great ports of the world.
The Welland Canal, which connects
Lake Ontario and Lake Erie, is owned
by the Canadian government. This is
25 miles long and is under reconstruc-
ton which will give it a depth Of 30
feet.
Both Have Short Canals.
Both Canada and the United States
have short canals TO enable shipping
from Lake Superior to make its way
into Lake Huron by avoiding the Falls
of the ST. Marys River which block
shipping there as the Niagara River
hinders the passage by the natural
channel from Lake Erie to Lake Ontario.
The American canal about the falls
Of the St. Mary's River is only a few
thousand feet long, and the Canadian
canal is about Ia miles in length. But
the annual freight tonnage finding its
way between these two lakes is twice
that carried through the Suez Canal.
Iron ore, wheat, coal and limestone
make up mcst of the freight passing
between Lake Superior and Lake Huron.
The coal moves from Lake Huron into
Lake Superior and the other products
go into Lake Huron territory.
The Canadian and American engi-
neers who have been studying the Great
Lakes seaway for many years consider
the st. Louis River, in Minnesota, as the
source OF the st. Lawrence River. The
distance from where the st. Louis rises
at the extreme western end of Lake
Superior TO the Gulf of St. Lawrence.
where the river Of that name merges
into the sea, is estimated at 1870 miles.
Total Shoreline 5,400 Miles.
The total length of the shoreline Ct
the Great Lakes and the rivers which
make up this immense water system Is
5,400 miles. 1t was these waterways
which made possible the settlement Of
much of both the United States anS
Canada before there were highways, in
land canals or railways.
The first locked canal in North Amer
lea was built in 1888 to avoid the rapids
of the st. Lawrence between Lake st.
Francis and Montreal
The first canal in the United States
was built 10 years later, around the falls
CT the Connecticut River at South Had
ley Falls, Mass, but instead Of locks 1t
had inclined planes over which small
boats we're dragged in movable caissons

When he ordered the advance across
the street. he said, he thought he was
within his rights. The B. E. F. had
been permitted to occupy the Capitol
steps before.
Believe me-" he said, I'm not going
to meet Gen. Glassford more than
half way. I'll go that far with him If
it's decent"
There can be little question that the
hold Of the curly-haired Oregon vet
eran on his forces was immensely
strengthened by the incidents of the
morning. There were rumorS that his
power was tottering. If so, the little
touch of martyrdom caused by his ar
rest restored it, Today he was the
man of the hour.
Again the men surged forward and
as many as could crowded onto the
Capitol steps. The street still was
filled.
And then began a long session of
what a hardened cynic of newspaper
man who had been on the bandstand
referred to as this Salvation Army
stuff" But" he continued, 1T was
the Salvation Army stuff that saved us
for few minutes there"
Donlon-hiS voice broken by the dust
of Camp Marks-stood on the top steps
and led the singing. Beside him, sril-
ing, stood the bare-legged flower of
ST. Theresa"
They sang over and over again the
old songs Of 1917. The Old Gray
Mare" "Over There Keep the Home
Fires Burning" The Long, Long
Trail" IAN we Do Is Sign the Pay
Roll" were repeated over and over
again as means Of reducing the high
nervous tension that this morning
might have easily resulted in critical
moment in history.
There were other songs-of back
home. Back Home Again in Indiana" )"
California, Here I Come" Oregon"
Garry Me Back to Old Virginia
seemed to have soothing effect.
Terrible Pathos Felt.
But there was something more than
Salvation Army stuff" The songs
were out of tune. The voices were
cracked. But the effect on one stand
ing in that crowd was understandable
There was terrible pathos to it all.
The setting, the ragged clothes, the
faces furrowed by hardship and hum
ger, the weeping women, the woman
bonus marcher with month-old baby
at her breast, the undernourished boys
and girls in the arms of their fathers
it all blended with those old songs,
those interludes of profanity. 1t was a
wild. weird melody rising from the
depths of the forgotten-an unearthly
symphony of war, love, suffering and
death. There was in it the wall of the
newborn, the Taps" played over a
coffin.
And it all was coming from those
impenetrable depths, unutterable feel
ing trying to burst through the bonds
of expression.
Waters came out on the portico and
announced that the President had re-
fused to see him.
Again the angry roar replaced the
singing.
