House.
Cites "Old-FashiOned Rule"
Mr.. Snyder told the subcommit.
tee:
1--WE are here in the position
Of law makers voting for meas
ureS that will establish . work
week in certain industries of IS
or 40 or Al hours as well as In
Government offices. Yet we are
obliged, because of an Old-fash-
toned rule that has been on the
books for many years, to use our
office help not IS or 40 hours a
week but IS or 80 hours q week
in order to serve our people back
home. 1 think we should not be
asked to do that"
The "old-fashioned rule" to
which Representative Snyder re-
ferred is the regulation granting
$1,000 a year to each member OF
the House for the employment of
not more than two clerks, one of
whom must not receive more than
$1,000 a year.
Mail Nearly Doubled
Representative D. Lane Powers
(RO of New Jersey, in requesting
that Congress correct this Situa'
ton, pointed out that within the
past four years mail received by
members of Congress had been
nearly double, with the result, he
said, that two clerks cannot pour
out that work day after day and
continue to be efficient"
Members of the subcommittee
agreed that $4,000 would take care
of the needs of House members.

Lament House on the opening day Of
its first session.
Under the great Elizabeth's reign
there had been golden era Of voy-
aging to and exploration OF America.
With James, her successor upon the
throne, is associated England's two
first permanent colonization projects
in America, one in Virginia and the
other in Massachusetts,. In 1908, just
two years from the time Of the almost
successful plot to blow up Parliament
House, ill-fated jamestown, first Of
Virginia's permanent Colonies, was
named for this monarch.

lish and American courts Of justice
pledge themselves Ito tell the truth,
the whole truth and nothing but the

About the croWning Of Charles I,
son Of James and his successor upon
the throne of England, certain gloomy
portents persisted which were claimed
to be forerunners of his unhappy
reign and tragic end. Contrary to
custom, he chose to be robed in white
for the Abbey ceremonies. Persisting
in course of ruthless tyranny, he
convened three Parliaments and dis
solved each because Of their refusal
to submit to his arbitrary procedure,
governing England from 1929 to 1640
without a Parliament through his
Infamous use of the courts Of the
Star Chamber and the High Commits
sion to make his various schemes
for money-raising seem legal. Finally,
under Cromwell, England's man Of
destiny, he was brought to trial, con-
demned as public enemy and be-
headed. AS his headless body was
transported to the tomb at Windsor
a heavy snowstorm covered the coffin,
giving rise to this couplet, In white

At the coronation of Charles II, son
of Charles I and first of the restored
Stuart line called to England after
the death Of Cromwell, it is reported
that terrific thunderstorm broke over
Westminster Abbey just as the cannon
were booming forth his accession, the
cannon and the thunder detonations
seeming to be playing together. An

Monster Coronation Banquet.
James II, son of Charles II and
Henrietta Maria OF France, was
crowned on st. Georges day, the 23rd
of April in the year 1885.
Conscious, perhaps, of a none too
great popularity with his subjects or
the peers O. his realm and being gen.
timely fond himself of the trappings
OF royalty, James caused coronation
feast to be prepared which 1t was his
purpose to have outrival by far any
ever before given upon q similar oc-
casion. Certain OF the viands served
testify to the gargantuan appetites
and gastronomic hardihood of the
times. These included lampreys, roast
porpoise and seal, served richly;
launches Of venison, mutton royal,
muttonconies of high grace" rabbit
sowker, beef with mutton, pig and
veal" Heartening dishes to further
tempt the appetites were fresh stur-
geon with whelks," carp and perch
in jelly" crabs, crayflsh and prawns,
stewed capon, crane with cretney,"
swan with artichokes, pheasant, pea
cock and larks. Among the sweets"
we noted custard royal, mottled cream
and tarts and 'jellys' Of all descrip-
tions.
A commentator Of the time quite
frankly states James attention with
the pomp and ceremonial in connec-
tion with his coronation caused i'm
portant matters of state pressing for
attention to be pushed aside until it
was over. There was popular dissatis-
faction, too, with omission Of the pro-
cession from the Tower of london, an
innovation which was loudly decried,
and commented upon in connection
with two. other unfortunate circum-
stances.
First, the frame underneath the
royal canopy, evidently not having

burden OF cloth of-gold draperies,
gave way, causing them to trail in
disorder about the royal person. Then
the crown Of sovereignty proved to
be too large for his head and slipped
down over his face while the coro-
nation peers helplessly stood by,
powerless to remedy the unfortunate
situation. A purported eyewitness
comments concerning this mishap:
THE Queen and her peeresses pre-
sented the better figure of the two"
These two untoward incidents sub
sequently came TO be as symbolic Of
James lis ill-starred reign which was
to end SO disast-ously with his abdi-
cation in favor of William and Mary

ton Of 1868 following the rebellion

rule independently of Parliament and

Chevrolet's MISTER models for

owners who seek to practice thrift

Performance, economy and COM

these models, without sacrifice of

Like the Master Deluxe again,
they embody numerous refine

all-round heighten.ng of the quail
ties which for the past three years
have been generating a steadily-in-
creasing demand for Chevrolet,
with the result that production
capacity has had to be enlarged

models carry an embossed die-cast
