GENIAL DEVIL
(By Associated Pressl

SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. s.
For ten years William S. Muir
ply, railroad clerk, had the tele-
phone number Mission 1855,
without knowing it contained a
secret meaning.
Then some wag discovered that
the same spaces on a dial tele-
phone spelled out O-H-H-E-L-L.
Now he keeps getting calls
asking whether Mrs. Devil is
at home, or how the temperature
is at his place. Murphy says
many of the callers are girls and
most of them apparently high
school students.
Asked why he doesn't have the
number changed, Murphy re-
piled, ooh, they seem to be hav-
ing fun. Why spoil it?"

Roof Danger 10 Bring
Action Tomorrow on
Moving Congress
Resolution in House
To Propose Use Of
Caucus Room

The Senate and House will be
asked tomorrow to move out of their
chambers while engineers take emer-
gency steps to prevent danger of
collapsing of the heavy suspension
roofs. It is hoped that repairs may
be completed in time for the next
regular session in January.
House Majority Leader McCor-
mack plans to introduce a resolution
tomorrow providing that sessions of
the House be held in the big caucus
room in the Old House Office Build
ing.
David Lynn. architect of the Cap
itol is hopeful that the Senate may
transfer its sessions into the old
Supreme Court chamber in the Cap
itol Building. where it met originally,
before the completion Of the Senate
and House wings, in 1859.
No Room for Visitors.
Neither the caucus room nor the
old courtroom would provide room
for public attendance at sessions OF
the Senate and House. which would
be restricted TO members and the
press.
The old Senate chamber was oc-
cupied by the Supreme Court for
three-quarters of a century after the
Senate abandoned it. A few years
ago it became a historical shrine
when the court moved into its own
new building across the Capitol
Grounds.
Mr. Lynn said that placing OF tenn
porary braces under the lOO-ton cast
iron roofs would require about six
weeks. He has been worried about
the condition of the roofs over the
legislative halls since snow collapsed
the roof OF the KnlckerbOcker
Theater here in 1922.
Rabaut Gives Report.
Representative Rabaut. Democrat,
of Michigan advised the House yes
terday that Congress should ad-
iourn to permit bracing OF the
Capitol roof before the next
regular session in January. He said
that necessity for repairs to the
heavy suspension roof was made
apparent by a series OF engineers
reports.
Mr.. Rabaut was appointed by the
late Speaker Bankhead on Joint
committee with Senator COnnally.
Democrat, of Texas to determine
the roof condition The House was
informed that $685., 900 has been
provided for repairs. but that fail
ure Of Congress to adjourn has pre-
vented the work.
Representative Rabaut said sew
eral engineers reports were made
independently, but all agreed IN
their findings regarding the grave
danger that now exists.

BETWEEN YOU

By PAUL A. PETERS

AMBITION: Weizmann was
only mildly interesting in his
Mecca Temple address the other
night before 1000 ZiOnistS >. He
was in poor voice and he didn't
seem to be able to warm up to
his topic But the following
night, addressing a group of $50
at dinner (Which, incidentally,
was the finest attended in several
years by this gOurmand) by the
American Friends of the Hebrew
University, he was fascinating :. :.
His talk on the university, inter-
larded with Witticism and anec-
dote, held his small audience en-
thralled -. Even the press table
forgot to be blaSe and sat fasci-
mated throughout That is, all
of it except one reporter for a
great metropolitan daily who, ap-
parently suffering from stayOut-
lateness sauntered Off-tO the en-
barrassment of his colleagues .
So obviously a man of the uni
versity is Weizmann and so con-
tagiOus his enthusiasm for it that
your cOlyumist was stirred to lOf-
ty ambition Some day to
make the pilgrimage to the Holy
Land and take a postgraduate
course in what must be the finest
institution i'm the world.

de Rothschild, approached by
Weizmann for funds with which
to start the university on Mt.
