VOTE FOR DISTRICT
. HEARING DELAYED
Delegates Desire to Get
Home for Week End Brings
Postponement. i
BY STAFF Correspondent of The Star.


RICHMOND, Va, February IA
desire on the part of many members
of the House of Delegates to leave
for home Immediately upon adjourn
ment for the week end resulted in
the postponement until Tuesday of
the hearing on the District of Colum-
bia suffrage resolution.
The hearing was to have been held
at $3.50 o'clock yesterday afternoon,
but Chairman Ashton c. DoveH OF
the Privileges and Elections Commit
tee feared that the members OF the
committee, in their haste to leave the
Capitol, would not give the matter
the consideration which 1t deserved
if required to study it yesterday.
While Delegate Ralph H. Daughton
of Norfolk and the Northern Virginia
co-patrons of the resolution would
like to see 1t reported and acted upon
by the House they did not seriously
object to the delay because it gave
them more time in which to receive
Endorsements from prominent Demo-
Gratis, many of which have been for
warded, but had not been received at
the time the committee meeting was
to have been held.
They have been informed that GER
tain influential members of the party
are lending their aid to the move
ment for the passage of the resolu-
ton and are confident that some Of
the objections at first raised will be
dissipated by the time the resolu-
ton reaches the floor of the House.
The resolution proposes the me-
morializing of Congress to promptly
approve and submit to the States for
ratification the constitutional amend
ment which would give the Dis
trict of Columbia national represen-
tation.
Through it, the patrons hope to
launch national movement which
will result in like action by the
Legislatures of other States, thereby
impressing upon Congress the uni
versal desire of the citizens through
out the United States to accord to
the citizens of Washington the same
suffrage powers the others enjoy.

DIRECT ELECTIONS
MEASURE REVISED
Senate Judiciary Committee
Approves Draft of Nor
riS Amendment.
BY the Associated Press.

by the Associated Press.
The Senate Judiciary Committee
yesterday approved revised draft of
a proposed constitutional amendment
by Senator Norris, Republican, Of Ne
braska, for abolishment of the elec-
toral college and providing for direct
elections Aof President and Vice Pres
ident Norris said he would press for
its adoption just as he had urged
abolishment of the lame duck" ses-
sions Of Congress
Some of the teeth were taken out
OF the amendment by the committee,
but Norris believes it still is a big step
toward outright popular election.
As originally drawn, it would have
divided the electoral or presidential
vote, as the amendment terms it, in
each State in proportion to the popu-
lar vote received by each candidate,
but the committee changed this to
give the States entire electoral vote
to the candidate receiving a plurality
Of the direct vote.
I'm effect" the committee report
said, this is no change from present
conditions, except that II does away
with the presidential electors.
THE principal object of this amend
ment is the abolishment of the cleo
toral college. 1t provides that the
people shall vote directly for candi-
dates for President and for Vice Pres
ident.
"It makes it possible to nominate
entirely Independent candidates for
President and for Vice President and
for the names of such candidates to
be placed upon the official ballot and
the votes canvassed the same as the
State law provides for the canvassing
of such votes for independent candi-
dates for Governor"
The proposal also guards against
deadlocks throwing the election into
the House as a result Of candidate's s
failure to get majority of the pres
idential' or electoral votes.

in the United States" she said, ito
provide for a partial compensation
for workers when they are laid of
in an industry through no fault of
their own. We have recognized that
the drying up Of purchasing power dries
up industry and that the drain on
charity is terrific The desirability
Of keeping up purchasing power in
times of depression is vital and men
will only spend when they know more
money Is coming in"
Miss Perkins, using her small,
strong, square-tipped fingers to
emphasize her remarks, explained she
favored the simplest possible approach
in order that the executive and legis-
lative bodies could anticipate what
the program would cost, and she con-
cluded by saying that civil works
program should be used only for mai jor
depreSsions.
Only the fact that she had to at
tend a cabinet meeting at o'clock
broke up the hearing. This iron

than two hours. The, principal points
she stressed were: With a shortening
of the work week an increase in
wages commensurate with the de-
crease in working hours is necessary;
the N. r. A. has been great ex-
perimental guide and an eye-opener
to the possibilities OF permanent labor
legislation; it is vitaIly necessary to
keep up wage levels because other
wise a vast, steady purchasing power
is eliminated; the administration Of
this legislation will be very difficult
because it will need impartial Gov
ernment representation as well as
that Of employer and employe; CO.
ernment and the States Is advisable,
fiexibility in administration is neces-
sary because of the varying working
conditions throughout the country
and that for the health and civii-
zation of the country as well as for
economic reasons q shorter working
week is desirable.
Finds Problems Clarified.
She spoke appreciatively Of the clar-
ification of labor problems that had
taken place through the N. r. A. ''Un-
der the N. r. A." she said, there has
always been in the code making au-
thority the right to fix the minimum
wage This has often been consid-
erably higher than wages previously
paid. The testimony given during the
Summer, before code authority, re-
vealed the extent to which wages
had fallen. In some instances they
we're as low as 81 a week"
Turning her head toward one Rep
resentative after another TO add force
to her arguments, she begged them
to benefit by the lessons learned in
the N. r. A. Its force and effect
rest upon a contract and the beauty
of the system is that the codes are
open to revision"
1T Is desirable that the steady in
dustries should absorb people laid OF
by industries which. due 10 me-
chanical improvements which are
constantly being developed. are forced
to cut down their workers." she told
the committee. I'VE are still on
tentative ground and should keep our
selves as flexible as possible. We
ought not to be too rigid. We must
provide for people to arrange their
own kind of life"
Favors Wagner Bill.
Miss Perkins also spoke on the sub
ject of unemployment insurance, and
touched on the Wagner-Lewis bill
which is before the Ways and Means
Committee Of the Senate. Il think
this is the most important bill Of the
decade. One of the basic rights of
man is to earn his living, to work. It
is highly desirable that Congress
should take this matter up during
the present session
"The time has come for a general
adoption of unemployment insurance

MARYLAND VOTING RESIDENCE
OF ID. C.. NAN HIT BY RULING

Under the non resident law OF
Maryland, DR.. Scurlock was notified
of the suit by the Secretary of State
of Maryland, but did not appear in
court.
No attention was paid to the mat
ter until the sheriff of Anne Arundel
County levied on DIR. Scurlock's prop
erty to satisfy the Judgment in April
last, when the case was taken to the
Court of Common Pleas on the
ground that DR. Scurlock was a resi-
dent of Maryland and should have
been served personally with papers in
the suit, and the judgment was set
aside.
Wagner then took the case to the
Court of Appeals, which reversed the
decision Of Judge Ulman, with costs
to the appellees. The decision Is
contrary to the generally accepted
theory that a person does not lose
his residence in 9 State by becoming
a citizen of Washington, due to the
fact that residents of the District of
Columbia are denied the right Of
suffrage.

BOXING, 64 TO "A
House Action Provides 500
Tax on Gross Receipts
From Bouts.
By a Stan Correspondent of The Star.


RICHMOND, Va, February IT,
The professional boxing bill passed the
House Of Delegates yesterday by 81
to "a.
This was by far the most important
Of number Of bills passed in the
Lower House yesterday, although fea-
ture Of the session was the introduce
ton of q bill by Delegate John @.
Rhodes and Wilbur C. Hall which
would permit localities to borrow
school funds from the State literary
fund, depositing delinquent tax tickets
as collateral.
15-Round Bouts Permitted.
The boxing bill, which now goes to
the Senate, would permit l5-round
professional fights for a purse of any
size and without limit as to the price
Of the tickets. AS passed, it provides
for a tax of 5 per cent on the gross
receipts, a half of which would be
returned to the localities in which the
fights were held.
Should this bill pass the Senate it
is expected that efforts will be re-
newed to have the Board of Arlington
County pass an ordinance which
would permit boxing there. Chairman
Lyman NJ. Kelley is in favor Of such
a move and has in mind certain loca-
tons where stadiums or arenas could
be erected. The division of the tax
provided would put a considerable
amount Of money in the Arlington
treasury, it is believed.
Bill for School Loans
The RhodeS-Hall bill was intro
! duced for the purpose Of permitting
the localities to borrow sufficient
funds to keep schools open for the
full eight months of the present
term, or for nine months where such
terms are in effect. Patrons said that
| funds are needed now, since the
| school money provided for in the
budget now under consideration viii
not become available until the next
bienniun, beginning July l. There
is about 100000 in the literary fund
! which would be available, they said.

velt to designate the National Geo.

bombardments it has suffered in the
centuries of its history was more ter

Present-day guns of high power

than in many previous strife-torn
periods.
Many of the events of those latter
periods are linked with Austria's trou-
bleS of today. In 1888, when the
Turks besieged the city, Ruediger Won
Starhemberg, ancestor of the present
chief of the Heimwehr, helped lead
the defense.
Workers Hope Crushed.
No pages of AuStria's history are
more vivid to the Republicans of this
day than those of the revolution OF
l848, when students and workers, in
furiated at the policies of Prince
Clemens Wenzel Lothar Metternich
seized power. Metternich could not
stem the tide though he turned guns
on the mobs.
With poor leadership, the new re-
gime fell virtually of its own weight
and the workers hope of a permanent
republic was crushed as troops re-
captured the city.
The city has been q battle-ground

Vienna Suffers Worst Havoc
In History During CiUH War
City battle-ground of Germans, SIaus,
Italians, Hmngarians and Other Races
Since Before Birth of Christ.

Charlemagne ruled it once. The
Magyars were in control in GOT AID,
and then the Germans, in 955, again
took it. In 976, Leopold of Baben-
berg took over the territory of which
Vienna was a part and established
what, by tradition. became Austria.
Civil Wars in the fourteenth CEN
tury damaged the city greatly. In
1485, Corvinus of Hungary drove
Frederick III, out. The German,
Maximilian I, in 1890, defeated the
Hungarians and laid the foundations
for what later became the great Aus
tro-Hungarian empire.
The Turks beseiged Vienna in 1888.
but John Sobieski, king of Poland, de-
feated them. Sidewalk cafes and the
lilac bush were left by the Turks. The
idea of street cafes spread through
Western Europe, and the lilac, from
the Orient, became highly favored.
The French under Prince Murat
took Vienna in 1905, but later evacu-
ated it. In 1909 Napoleon captured
it after a three-day bombardment.
IS4S Revolt Fails.

The present area of Austria dates
back to the World War and the Revo-
