|NARMY'S TRIBUTE
Lowering Skies Fail to Halt
Greatest Honor to U. S.
Land Forces.

Under lowering skies which threat
ened to drench the marchers at any
moment, an Army bugler on the staff
of Maj. Gen. Albert J. Bowley, COM
manding general of the Sd Corps
Area, this afternoon set in motion
the greatest Army day parade in 19
years of observance of the entrance
of the United States into the World
War.
Although today's peace-time march
ers were in sharp contrast with the
grim procession of 10 years ago, as
they swung across Capitol Plaza,
Senate and House conferees were
preparing to complete legislative ac-
ton on the largest peace-time Army
appropriation bill in history. The
clouds above the heads of the gayly
uniformed marchers were symbolical
of the war clouds hanging over many
of the nations of the world.
AS the notes of the bugle call died
away, Gen. Bowley and members of
his staff, following a Metropolitan
Police motor cycle escort, crossed the
plaza and turned west along Consti-
tuition avenue, where thousands of
spectators had gathered In the
column behind the general we're nearly

NUMBERS RACKET
IS |SRULEDLOTTERY
Court Finding Aids D. c. Po.
lice in Fight Against
Policy Game.
BY WILLIAM S. TARvER.

In a decision vital to police in their
war on WaShington's million dollar
numbers" racket, the United States
Court of Appeals today upheld the
challenged right of the Government
to prosecute numbers operators under
the anti-lottery law.
The decision was made in an ap-
peal from conviction in District Su-
preme Court of John r. Forte and
three others arrested in a raid on a
lunch room at 1101 Fifth street Janu-
ary 3, 1885.
The sole question considered in the
appeal, which was described by United
States Attorney Leslie c. Garnett as
of utmost importance to law enforce
ment in the Capital, was whether the
numbers game comes within the pur-
view of section 1863 of the District
Code, which prohibits the sale and
possession of lottery tickets.
Game Held to Be Lottery.
It was generally conceded that a
decision holding the numbers game

of police in their efforts to suppress
this widespread racket.
In an opinion written by Associate
Justice Josiah A. Van Orsdel, the
Court of Appeals held the game is a
lottery and clearly prohibited by the
existing law.
THE question is novel one in the
District, but it has been considered
in a number of State courts" stated
the appellate body.
Describing the game, the court said
THE player gives the numbers writ
er a number containing three digits
and bets his money, from a penny
upward, on this number. The num-
bers writer writes the number and
the amount which the player wants
to play in small book, which pro-
duces an original and two carbon
copies.

BLANTON SNARLS
OUSEPROCEDURE
Seeks Vengeance for Denial
of Speech Outlet, and
ImpaSse Results.
BY JAMES E. CHINN.

The legislative wheels in the House
were badly snarled today as Repre-
sentative Blanton Democrat, of Texas
carried out his Jnreat to object to all
unanimous consent requests original
ing on the Republican side.
Blanton started as soon as the
House convened. to penalize the Re-
publicans for .ne action Friday OF
their leader, Representative Smell ol
New York. in preventing him from
speaking for three minutes or inserting
his remarks in the Congressional Rec
ord under a unanimous consent agree
ment.
The Republicans however, retail
lated. using the same tactics as Blan-
ton, and for more than an hour very
little business was transacted.
The PIay-by-Play Account.
A condensed. chronological account
of what happened from noon until
shortly after p.nl. follows:
Representative Hoffman. Republi
can, of Michigan asked for House ap-
proval of a conference report.
Get out of no mans land and
come into the middle Of the aisle
and I'll not object" shouted Blan-
ton.
Hoffman moved into the middle
aisle and said. IF I have to pay
tribute to the gentleman from Texas
I'll do it."
The conference report was ap~
proved. Blanton, however, served no.
tice there would be no further unan-
imous consent requests granted for
the Republican side.
Burdick Passes Muster.
Representative Burdick, Republican
of North Dakota then requested five
minutes to discuss seed loans to farm
ers. Blanton looked at him and said:
The gentleman does not belong to
the other side. I'll not object"
A few minutes later Representative
Martin of Massachusetts,, assistant
minority leader, asked unanimous
consent to revise and extend his re-
marks in the Record. Blantor
promptly objected.
In view of the precedent estab-
lished by the gentleman from Texas,
Martin declared angrily. "therell bt
no request granted originating on the
Democratic side"
Bankhead's Plea Refused.
Blanton rose from his seat and
wringing his hands, shouted: MI
Speaker, the ventilation in here Il
terrible. There's something offensive
in the Hose that smells like spoiled
cheese from Potsdam.
After that Representative Bankheac
of Alabama, majority leader, made q
request that certain bill on tht
consent calendar be permitted to "gC
over" without prejudice.
Martin objected to that request.
I'm very sorry" he said, but under
the circumstances I have to do So"
Bankhead then walked to the Re-
publican side and held conference
with Smell. In the meantime Repre-.

The Senate Agriculture Committee
tracked partially today on Its
resolution asking the names of all
A. A. A. beneficiaries of $1,000 or more
and voted to ask only for data on those
receiving $4,000 or more in any con-
tract year.
This action was taken after the
committee had received from Secre-
tary Wallace report showing pay
ments under the old A. A. A. had
ranged up to S1,067, sos, the sum paid
one Florida sugar corporation.
The exact action taken by the COM
mittee was in doubt even among the
members The consensus was that
the request on Wallace would bring
less information than asked originally
by Senator Vandenberg, Republican, OF
Michigan in presenting the resolution
However, it was expected to elicit
most of the big payments made since
the act was inaugurated in 1888, ano
the names of the recipients.
Views on Data Vary.
Chairman Smith said that where
any farmer in a State received more
than $4,000 in any crop year fol
crop control in connection with any
one commodity, his name would be
given.
There were other Senators, however
who believed the result of the resolu-
ton would bring only those benefit
payments in any one county for a
commodity exceeded $4,000 a year.
Under this arrangement, farmer
with properties in several counties. in
each of which he received less than
$4,000, would not be named, even
though his aggregate for the State ex-
ceeded $4,000
Saturday the committee authorized
Smith to ask reports of all payments
above $1,000. But when Wallace ap-
peared before the committee today
this was changed in the interest OF
simplicity, and with view to reduc-
ing the amount of work required OF
the department.
There steps already were under way
to compile a list Of names Of indi-
viduals who received more than
$1,000.
1t was understood the A. A. A. al
ready has available the names OF
some of the larger benefit recipients
but has withheld them pending a
specific request by the Senate.
