It seems that in the midst of
his hard fight to get the stock
exchange CONTROL bill passed, the
Hoosier congressman has found
time to read those speeches in
serted in the back of the daily
edition Of the Record.
He brought the matter up in
the house as a parliamentary in
quiry to the speaker.
In the appendix of the Con-
gressional Record" Mr. Pettengill
said. when remarks that purport
to be remarks of a member of the
house are included as an extern
sion of remarks, is it to be as
sumed that the remarks were not
made on the floor of the house?
The reason l ask this question
is because I have noticed two or
three times lately, and I am not
going to refer to any member of
the house by name, that in eX-
tensions of remarks the words
daughter and applause or zap
plause) have been sprinkled in
the remarks, and I have Won
dered if it is correct for the public
printer to insert any such Ian
guage as that with respect to zap
plause) that did not occur on the
floor of the house"
Speaker Henry T, Rainey ruled
that it was improper to sprinkle
your own applause" in remarks
that never we're made and the in
serts are expected to disappear
from now on.

ing Giants. who handed the Reds
their eighth straight defeat, TO 3.
Mel Otis ninth-inning double
scored Grantham and Terry with
the tying and winning runs. Pitts
burgh nosed out Brooklyn, 7 to 6,

and wrested fourth place from the
Braves by beating them, 10 to 5,
aided by homerS from Rothrock
and Collins.
White SOx Crushed
Joe Cronin's Senators replaced the
Red Sox at third position in the
American League by smashing the

LUDLOW HOLDS
GAS COMP ANY
PURCHASE PLAN
Congressman Will Confer
With Van NuyS on PWA
Appropriations.
BY DANIEL NJ. KIDNEY
Times STAFF Writer

WASHINGTON, May 8.-Before
leaving for Indianapolis, where he
will vote in the primary election
today Congressman Louis Ludlow
announced that he, too, has an
amendment to the PWA appropria-
lions bill prepared which would per-
NIT the city of indianapolis to pur-
chase the Citizens Gas Company.
Like Senator Frederick Van Nuys.
Representative Ludlow, also ex-
pressed high hope of having the
amendment incorporated into the
appropriations bill.
Upon his return from Indiana he
will confer with the senator on best
methods of procedure, Mr.. Ludlow
said.
I am vastly interested in seeing
the PWA funds made available for
this purpose" he asserted.
When it was learned that PWA
rules will not permit grants for
anything but construction, Senator
Van Nuys drafted the amendment
to care specifically for the Indian
apolis case. He is ready to have it
adopted in the senate, and Repre-
sentative Ludlow will fight for the
same solution in the house,
This joint effort may result in
success, although the legislative
jam of special measures make such
things difficult in the closing days,
il was rOintnd ont
Senator Van Mugs issued a state
ment today in which he denied an
intimation made when Governor
Paul " McNutt was in the city
that he, Senator Van NuyS. might
be blocking the progress of Con-
gresham Ludlow for the Democrat
ic senatorial nomination.
Il wish to correct that impress
sion because it is absolutely un-
founded" Senator Van Mugs said.
AS I repeatedly have said, I am
keeping hands off the nomination
for United States senator for the
very simple and sufficient reason
that it is none of my business who
the Democratic party desires to
nominate for that or any other Of
flee. That, consistently, has been
my position, and l shall adhere to
it,"

ARGENTEUIL, France, May 8.
The Waterman at the Argenteuil
basilica was wounded in the head
during the night while defending
from thieves a relic reputed to be

The marauders entered the

steal the relic. The Waterman,
although wounded, managed to
drive them off.
The tunic has belonged to the
basilica since the twelfth century.
1t has been on public view since
Easter and hundreds of cripples
and invalids have been brought to
the church daily in search of
miraculous cures.
The tunic, supposedly woven by
the Virgin Mary, is a purple, Seam

and with alleged marks of the
cross diagonally across the back.
