With this system, regulation
will be put into effect under which
no left hand turns will be per

This was agreed on by Van Duzer
at the inSistence Of Schultz, who
contended that many Of the traf-

tying up of traffic in the con.
geSted area is the direct result OF
left hand turns being allowed.
Mai. Ernest w. Brown. Super

increased so that he could allow
more men for traffic duty ex

TOKYO, Feb. 28 Q.N.SO.-Re'
fusing to surrender their embat-
tied positions in government build
ings, rebel troops, still joyouSly
celebrating the assassination OF
five anti-militaristic statesmen,
were holding out for better terms
of capitulation today six hours
after the governments noon dead
line.
Foreign diplomatic quarters
heard that another "compromiSe"
had been offered the mutineers to
induce them to return to their bar
racks.
This is the second compromise
offered to the insurgents and 1t
is believed to involve promises
that the military will have more
power in government affairs.
Tension High in Tokyo
Tokyo is in a state Of extreme
tension, while three important
meetings of various branches OF
the government are being held to
determine action.
The foreign office advised the
American and other embassies
and legations to warn foreigners
to stay off the streets. Govern
ment guards were established
around the American embassy
The entire Mexican legation staff
left the city. AL foreign guests
left the Sanno Hotel, including
Mrs. Sears, of San Francisco, wife
of a newspaper photographer
whose film was seized, and Lieu
tenant and Mrs. Richardson, o1
the American embassy staff.
Most significant of today's par
leys was one called by Admira.
Mineo Osumi, navy minister and
a possibility for the premiership
who summoned high naval Off
GERS to consider the navy's stand
point in the rebellion.
Loyalty in Question
Crews of the first fleet were
ordered to "stand by for action,
and it was a question whether
the guns of the warShipS thai
bristled in Tokyo Harbor woulc
be turned on the rebels or Woulc
roar in the militariStic cause.
Apparently the government Is
in a quandary about how to act
fearing that the whole army and
navy may go over to the rebel
side.
Last nights developments wer
fantastic, and gave evidence OF tn
whole army's sympathy with tn
handful of rebels.
After the insurgents had agree
to return to their barracks fey
actually did return-a majorit!
of the others went about the Ger
ter of Tokyo celebrating their pal
tial victory.

HACKERS SEEK
FRAZIER BILL .
SHOWDOWN
Caucuses to Be Forced
to Bring Measure
Up in House
By WILLIAM s. NEAL
International News Service

In a surprise move, hackers Of
the Frazier-Lemke three-billion-
dollar farm initiation bill decided
today to force party caucuseS on
the question of bringing the bill
to the floor of the House.
The decision again threw wide
open the bitter fight over the
plan Of refinancing farm mort
cages at III per cent interest, and
assured an early showdown in
both Democratic and Republican
organizations in the House.
A Democratic caucus can be
forced by a petition of Is mem
berS and a Republican confer
ence can be called through a petit
ton with the same number OF
SignerS.
Sponsors of the movement said
the petition would be quickly
signed and that caucuseS would
be forced next week.
With 148 Democrats having at
various times signed the petition
on the Speakers desk to force
action on the Frazier-Lemke bill.
hackers of the measure hoped to
force through the caucus a reso'
luton requesting the Rules Com
mittee to give the bill right OF
way in the House. There are
BIT Democrats in the House.
Representative McFarlane CD
of Texas offered a resolution in

D. E. AIRPORT
: BOARD TO Be
NAMED
3 From Senate, 3 From
House, 3 Choices Of
President Agreed

A new airport commission con-
sisting of three members Of the
House. three members Of the Sen
ate and three persons to be ap-
pointed by the President was
agreed upon today by House and.
Senate confereeS, to select site
for q permanent airport for the
Nations Capital.
The decision came after an
hours session in. the Senate Dis.
trict Committee room attended
by the conferees and the chair
men Of the House and Senate,
District committees. Representa-
tive Jack Nichols Cd Oklahoma,
one of the conferees, was absent,
i'll.
$9O,OOO for Options
It was decided to redraft the
resolution now pending to provide
for the appointment Of the COM
mission; to allow them to select
a site without limitations; to pro
vide an appropriation of $100, 900,
$4,000 to be used in hiring ex-
pertS during the survey of the
site and $4,000 to be used in
securing options on available
property.
While the decision today broke
the deadlock between the House
and the Senate, 1t was pointed
out that almost a decade ago a
similar joint congressional COM
mittee held hearings, and the Sc
lection Of q site has dragged on
to the present time.
Will Push Draft
Senator William H. King Of
Utah, chairman of the Senate Dis
trict Committee, who presided at
today's meeting, said afterward
that it was the hope Of those pres
ent to have the redrafted resolu-
ton drawn up and presented in
the House within the next day or
two.
The commission, Senator King
said, will be bound to select q site
that will not only meet the pres
ent needs for an airport, but it
must take into consideration the
growth Of the city and the inn
provement and progress Of avia-
ton. The site may be placed in
the District, Maryland or Virginia.

with representatives of the EN-
peror the terms on which they
would agree to surrender ard re-
turn to their barracks.
Indications were they were de-
manding the establishment either
of a military dictatorship or q
strong nationalistic government.
Conflicting RumOrS
During the day there were
many conflicting rumorS and con-
siderable anxiety in the diplo-
matte and foreign community,
especially over whether an anti
foreign feeling might develop
among the troops in control Of
the city.
This anxiety was somewhat re-
lieved when the day passed
quietly.
The commander of the First
Army Division, to which the re-
voting young officers belonged,
approached them this afternoon
and ordered them to obey the
command of the Emperor that
they return to their barracks.
The insurgents thereupon agreed,
according to reports, to obey the
Emperor's command, but com
menced to stall for time by insist
ing upon negotiating as to when
and under what conditions they
would return.
Loyal troops still occupied Stra-
tegic positions throughout the area
around the residence.
Resume Censorship
A strict censorship on news dis
patches abroad, designed virtually
to cut Tokyo off from the rest of
the world, was reestablished this
afternoon. It had been lifted for
a short time this morning, and
foreign correspondents were about
to talk abroad by radio telephone.
Japanese newspapers reported
today a run has commenced on
japanese banks throughout the
country, with heavy Withdrawals
of deposits.
The first fleet of the japanese
navy steamed into Tokyo Bay this
morning for guard duty. One
light cruiser and eight deStroyerS
lined UP IN front of the landing
dock at Shibaura. that part Of
Tokyo Bay which is near the city.
No bluejackets or marines were
landed except a small detachment
which was detailed to guard the
navy ministry.

 Kay mumbled as though still asleep: "Got day of. Don't bother me-" And to Genevieve's incredulous questions she responded 50 grudging- ly and drowsily that in the end the other departed, left her here alone.

 On the street outside, she walked with head high and cheeks blazing {; but her eyes burned with unshed tears, and her heart was sick. She walked for she knew not how long a time, in 6 dead despair: came home at last with 1aggard feet and drooping shoulder. She hurried up to her room as though she raced for sanctuary. Genevieve would not be there; she could be alone.
 She found a note pinned to the door. It read:
 MT. Ripley telephohed. He's at the Copley. He wants you to call him.
 Kay stood for only an instant, in the briefest hesitation. Then she darted down the stairs to the tele- phone.

 She came to her feet, white with angry pride, sick with despair. "You don't need to keep me if I'm not earning my salary" she ex- claimed. ''1'1l quit!"
 T don't want you to quit, Kay" Chuck told her, in friendly tone, I want you to knuckle down and earn what we pay you. You could earn . geat deal more; and when you do, we'll be glad to pay it."

 "Oh yes 1t is. in 8 way" Chick assured her. When you asked for work here, you were untried, you knew nothing about the business you were young. There was no reason in the world why I should hire you--except that I liked you. In fact, I did 1t against my better judgment"
 Kay tried to speak, but her lips were dry.
 I knew you were 8 gamble" he said. And I've tried to make 1t a winning gamble, tried to bring you along as fast as possible. But Kay, to make good in any job, any profession, takes all the energy @ person can summon to the task. It isn't half-time job"

 But many morning you've come in so tired and sleepy you weren't good for much before noon," he told her. "Kay, you can't run around till the small hours with lot of irresponsible kids, and then be bright and shining at your desk at nine."
 I suppose you'd have me tuck in at seven every night!" she ex- claimed resentfully.
 He hesitated, and his eyes shad- owed. T didn't mean to start an argument with you, Kay" he said, more stiff1y. "What you do at night is nothing to Us, none of our busi- ness. But the firm has . right to expect that you'll be on hand in the morning fit and ready for the days
