House Expected
To Hit Sharply
AT Salary Limits
Disney Bill Debate
Brings Attack on
Executive Usurpotion
BY GOULD LINCOLN.

The House was expected, be-
fore adjournment today, tC
strike sharply at President
RooSevelt's executive order of
October 3, 1912, limiting salaries
to $4,000 after income taxes
have been paid.
The resentment of Congress
against the so-called usurpation OF
power by the President flared into
the open during debate on the Dis
hey bill which increases the ma
tional debt limit from S125 900, 00O.-
900 to S2l0000,00000 and at the
same time deals with the President S
executive order A special rule pro-
Viding for consideration of the bill
was adopted by a voice vote after
an hours debate.
During the debate on the rule and
the bill itself. practically nothing
was said about the proposal to raise
the debt limit to the proposed huge
figure.
The speakers concentrated on the
salary limitation issue.
SABBATH Opens Debate.
Chairman SABBATH of the Rules
Committee opened the debate with
a demand that the House be per-
mitted to take a separate vote on
the Disney proposal to rescind in
part the Presidents executive order
fNyj1o co IL, l.
self has strongly urged the House
Ways and Means Committee not to
attach this rider to the debt imi-
tation bill.
Later the President urged the
Ways and Means Committee to draft
legislation and carry into effect a
net income limitation OF $4,000 on
all incomes whether derived from
salaries or otherwise. promising to
rescind his executive order if this
were done.
The Ways and Means Committee,
dlsregardlng these requests of the
President, reported the Disney bill
1avorably by a vote of 1910.
Under the special rule granted by
an overwhelming vote of the Rules
Committee no separate vote on the
salary ceiling section of the bill can
be had except in committee of the
whole. where no roll-call vote is
permitted.
Predict Measure Will Carry.
Proponents Of the Disney bill pre-
dicted the measure would carry,
despite administration opposition.
Representative Fish, of New York
ranking Republican member Of the
Rules Committee. and Representa-
tive Cox, of Georgia Democrat, both
vigorously attacked the executive
order on salaries issued by the Presi-
dent.
1T was wholly without authority
of law" said Mr. Cox. 1T violates
the expressed wish Of Congress.
Mr.. Cox added that while there
might be some argument over the
authority granted the President
under the Price Control Act, re-
lied upon for the executive order
there could be no doubt that the
order clearly violated the intent OF
Congress. He said that the Bank
ing and Currency Committee Of the
House, while considering the price

Happiness in Sharing

the gardens, with their we.' Ii Of
beauty, arc open the year roa:.,a To
all who wish to come Within HE
hospitahiev aisfcs surrounding the
quiet home to pafaake of their
loyeliness and peace.
Not many can make 4 garden OF
such extensive proportions or
share their bounty with nulti.
tudes. But each one who enter
tains In his mental outlook on life
the quality Of nnseliishness has
established within his own hear,
q fundamental Of happiness. And
with thoughts Of kindness, and
willingness and gladness TO share
the good that is already realized
IN his experience, he will find
sllrccase OF his own heartaches
and loneliness in helping to
sweeten even SO much as an hour
in another's life. Thus, through
honest striving TO see good in all
ones days, and in expressing
good, many one has found hap
piness in loving living.
Material sense is incapable OF
discerning or conferring happi
ness; for, since 1t is spiritual,
happiness is derived from Spirit,
or Soul, and is realized only
through spiritual sense. This
eternal fact by no means limits
the human experience OF happi-
ness. Rather does Ii so enlarge
and enrich this true sense that
all mankind is included in the
spiritualized desire to love and Ia
share.
Christ Jesus who told his fol.
lowers that they must love Us he
loved once said, when he had
given his disciples lesson in
humility tJohn 1915, ~: Il have
given you an example, that We
should do as have done to you,
-. II ye know these things, happy
are ye il We do then." This is the
simple remedy for human loneii,
ness or sorrow. whereby each one
may begin not only to happily his
own life but, by loving sharing,
help 10 bring into human CON.

ness, which alone can dissolve the
fear, the hatred, and the greed
| which breed strife between indi-
viduals and nations. Having given
to his disciples his great gift, ir
his revelation of God as Father,
the Master sent them forth to
preach that "the kingdom Of
heaven is ut hand" and to heal
the sick. saying (Matlhew 1877, 81,

Acid Indigestion

MERE are many who have
learned or are learning the
valuable lesson that happi-
ness is moi dependent upon mate-s
rial things, upon association with
certain persons, or upon particu-
lar surroundings or circun-
stances. Happiness is state of
Mind, and when this fact is real
lied one can begin intelligently to
cultivate this desirable mental
condition.
In Science and Health with
Key TO the Scriptures" Mary Ba-
ker Eddy says (p. 57): "Happi-
ness is spiritual, born Of Truth
and Love. 1t is unselfish; there
fore it cannot exist alone, but re-
q,lires all mankind 10 share It"
A lack Of this essential quality Of
unscllishness probably explains
why there appears to be in human
experience much of scIf-inflicted
sorrow and nnhappiness. II is the
nature of the human mind to de-
sire and to seek 10 attain some
thing for itself, some material
acquisition, association. achieve
ment, or honor. This, perhaps,
having been gained through hu-
man effort, may bring with il a
sense of disappointment, safety,
or futility; and the searcher finds
himself still looking with longing
eyes toward happiness which
has cluded his grasp.
There arc others, however, who
have enjoyed a better sense Of
contentment in holding to more
nnselfish outlook, and in sharing
with others whatever Of good has
come into their experience. An
instance OF such sharing is seen
i'll connection with beautiful
garden on an island in the far
Northwest. There, many years
ago, d certain family established a
little home and opened a cement
factory. quarrying the limestone
from the hillside near by. As time
went on and The supply was ex-
haustcd. there was left SCARED
and unsightly pit. Those who had
gained abundance from these hills
desired to share with others of
their bountifnlness. This they
accomplished by converting The
wide, ragged quarry into a gar
! len Of great beauty. Through
heir vision and loving care, the
wounded hillside has been made
% bring forth much OF loveliness,
+. II grass and rare trees, pools, and
exquisite flowers. And these low
