WALSH OFFERS
GALLERY BILL

Senator David I. Walsh Cd Of
Massachusetts, yesterday intro
duced his promised bill to set up a
Smithsonian Gallery of Art facing
Constitution Avenue between
Twelfth and Fourteenth Streets
Northwest.
This gallery is to be designed
as a complement to the National
Gallery of Art offered to the Gov
eminent by Andrew W. Mellon.
1t is proposed to exhibit art OBJ
jects stored in the Smithsonian
Institution and to show contem-
porary art.
The Mellon art bill was passed
over in the Senate yesterday on
the objection Of Senator Robert
LaFollette (P.) of wisconsin and
Senator Royal s. Copeland Cd OF
New York. The bill would permit
the Government to accept the $780,
O00, 900 art collection of Andrew
w. Mellon.
At the conclusion Of the Ses-
sion, Senator LaFollette said:
81 have studied the bill and /
wish to make my position clear
on the floor of the Senate in
stead Of giving it out piecemeal.
1 wish to offer several amend
mentS."
Senator Copeland said he OBJ
jected to present consideration at
the request Of certain New York
architects and artists.

COMMISSIONS
HIT BY BILLS

ANNAPOLIS, Md, March II.
Two bills affecting the terms Of the
office of the members Of the Wash
ington Suburban Sanitary Com
mission and the Maryland National
Capital Park and Planning Com
mission swept through the Senate
yesterday without a dissenting
vote on the part Of Republicans
after Senator Stedman Prescott
Cd, Montgomery, threatened
Democratic reprisals on the Repub'
lican governors appointments if a
fight was staged.
The bill extends the terms Of the
officers so as to make them expire
in 1889, after Governor Nice has
retired from office. Under the
present law they would expire in
May of this year and the Governor
would fill the vacancies.
It is estimated that about $50
jobs are at stake.
As the bills already had passed
the House, they will now go to the
Governor for his signature. It had
previously been supposed he would
veto the measures, but in view Of
the vote in the Senate today it is
now doubtful.

To begin with, Messiahs don't go campaigning
on one set Of promises and then spend the next
five years showing just how good misrepre-

in terms of political party in preference to
nation, and stand aside while banks fall down
so that they can dramatically prop them all up
again with bewitching savor faire, laugh
and grand beau geste.

Neither do Messiahs promise the more abundant
life with one hand, and then pull down the
more abundant business with the other hand
by persistent fostering Of policies which force
prices and fabricating costs up, up and up, until
the whole underlying economic structure Shivers
ominously again.
SMesSiahs just don't act that way, notwith-
standing Mr.. Landon. Neither are many citizens
interested in that jolly little game Of CASTOR
and Alfonso. They aren't even interested at
the news the Messiah went haywire somewhere
along the line and turned up as a would-be

to the electric chair for the mur-
der of Mrs. Henrietta Anderson,
36-year.old widow, attacked NC
Afee's claim he was too intoxi-

The jury's verdict is expected

McAfee's attorneys, Robert I.

had introduced evidence that Nc
Afee had been on an all-day drink
ing spree.
DEFENSE OFFERED
Hence, they claimed, being
drunk, he should not be charged
with first-degree murder, where
premeditation is an element of the
offense, and should be convicted
of nothing more than manslaugh-
ter.
Assistant United States Attor-
ney Charles E. Murray, i'm final
arguments to the jury, declared
McAfee's attempts to conceal the
crime belied efforts on his coun-
sci to show he was helplesSGy drunk

Murray said, he went to the base
