CLIMBS AS BUSINESS OUTLOOK
Passage Of Bridges
Deportation Bill By
House Expected Soon

WASHINGTON, May % Up -
Legislation for the summary deporta-
ton of Harry R. Bridges, west coast
CLIO leader, won the r~ight-of-way to
the house floor today by unanimous
vote of the rules committee, and in
formed members predicted its speedy
passage.
Majority Leader Rayburn (D-Tex)
said, however, that no plans had
been made yet to bring the
up for debate. No such action has
ever before been taken by congress
against an individual.
The rules committee approved the
legislation in less than five minutes
1t had heard earlier from Rep. Allen
D-Lal, author of the bill, that the
house immigration committee was
convinced that Bridges was an "un-
desirable" alien.

Paper On Stuart GiUen
At FinulD Il. K. Meet

The last meeting Of the spring Of
Old Butte chapter, D. A r., was held
Saturday afternoon at the Vance
hotel, with Mrs William Horner as
hostess. The meeting was opened
with the salute to the flag, the
Americans creed, the D. A. r. ritual,
followed by prayer led by Mrs. Rosa
Epps.
AS Saturday was the beginning of
Flag Week. special program on
the flag WAS given. As the roll was
called. every member gave some
quotation written by a famous per-
son concerning the flag. The regent
urged that each member display a
flag from her home during the wees
June 8-l4.
The president generals message
was read by Mrs. J. A. Turner.
Miss Edna Garlick, continuing the
study OF Famous People Of Colonial
Times. gave 4 paper on Gilbert
Stuart and his works. She told OF
his life. his training, and how he re-
turned 10 America from London to
paint George Washington. His five
best Washington portraits include
the Gibbs Charming Avery portrait,
in which the subject is portrayed in
4 more serious mood than in the
others; the fllll-lcngth LandSdoWnC
portrait: the companion pictures, the
unfinished, or Athenian, portraits OF
George and Martha Washington,
which he used as models for later
works; and the Carroll portrait,
copied from the Athenian portrait,
which was painted four years after
Wa$hington'S death. This last work
is considered one of the finest inter-
pretationS of George Washington.
Stuart painted many other people
famous in the life OF the times, such
as Thomas Jefferson, and Paul Re-
we're.
The artist had remarkable men,
Dry. and was able to paint a por-
trait almost completely from memory.
Miss Garlick said that he painted
so swiftly that he could paint six
portraits a day, using the remainder
of the day for pleasure.
In conclusion, she said, In all his
works he is first a colorlst and his
place, Judged by the highest canons
of art. is among the few recognized
masters of portraiture.H

chairman, was given rising vote
