WIN
FROM ARMY
STARTLING HEADQUARTERS,

STARTLING HEADQUARTERS,
The Capitol, Feb. 3.-Determined
to fight it out on this line if it
takes all winter, the invading
starlings won a decisive victory
over the United States Army to-
day. t
The Bureau of Biological Sur
vey of the Department of Agri-
culture had recommended to
David Lynn, Capitol architect,
that the starlings be gaSsed,
using hydrocyanic gas.
Lynn appealed to Brig. Gen.
c. E. Brigham, chief of the
Chemical Warfare Service, for
men and equipment to lead the
battle.
The starlings won today, how
ever, when General Brigham said
he didn't have any of the gas
and, anyway, if he did, it
wouldn't do any good, as birds
have a very high residence to
gas, as shown during the war
when carrier pigeons flew un-
scathed through clouds of gas.
Lynn then announced that
next Tuesday at roosting time
all Capitol police will be armed
with shotouns loaded with blank
cartridges in an effort to
frighten the birds away.

prosecution, in the dying state
ment, the surgeon accused DR..
Dean Of poisoning the drink she
served him on the porch OF her

will seek to establish that DR..

Basis of the suicide contention,
attorneys for DR.. Dean indicated,
will be the claim that the surgeon

To BE GUT

Prince Georges county liquor
dealers will reduce their prices
to Washington levels when whisky
and wines become legal in the
District.
Dealers in the nearby county

competition with sellers in Wash

drinks at the same prices as
viii prevail in the District.
While it is expected that the
majority Of off sale places will
close up at the advent of legal
liquor in the Capital, on-sale
dealers in Prince Georges county

knowledge"
Air Mail Data Included
The material which Givens
turned over to the committee
included numerous papers re-
ferring to air mail contracts.
Givens insisted, however, that
much of the data was personal
and for that reason was taken
from the files.
There were letters from the
United States Chamber of Com

for the Federal Postoffice De

Colonel Brittin told the commit

House Members Hail
COMPROMISE on Pay Cut

Admittedly pleased at the Sen
ate Appropriations Committees
restoration of 10 per cent OF the
Federal pay cut, many members
Of the House still cling to hope
the entire cut will be restored.
This is considered very doubt
full in other quarters, however,
since it is generally believed Presi-
dent Roosevelt does not wish more
than 10 per cent returned for the
time being.
Wood Backs Full Return
Among those who want to see
the entire Is per cent returned is
Representative Reuben T. Wood
CD of Missouri, who says:
81 am still for returning the
whole cut and would like to see
the Senate 60 the whole way.
"The 10 per cent, though, Of
ferS more hope. / always have
thought 1t q mistake not to re-
store the entire cut, anyway.
There's no doubt that both SEN
ate and House will agree to the
amendment"
Representative George Burn
ham CR) of California, soft
spoken, dignified member of the
House District Committee, shared
that opinion, saying:
II would rather see. the Is
per cent restored in full, but
certainly 10 per cent is better
than only 5.
JUSTIFIED BY COSTS
II firmly believe living costs
now fully justify complete
elimination of the cut"
Two Massachusetts, Congress-
man believe much the same. Rep
Tesentative Charles A. clifford
(R.) from the Cape Cod district
Of the Bay State, said:
"The Senate's action is very
satisfactory to me and 1 be-
lieve the amendment will meet
with the approval of the
House."
Stronger yet is the comment Of
Representative Joseph w. Martin
jr., (R.) of Massachusetts,.
'T'm sorry they didn't 90
the whole way and make it Is
instead of 10 per cent, but
I'm glad to see progress made.
"If it reaches the floor Of
the House there won't be .
single voice raised against it."
