PRISON BANQUET
DELAYS DEATH
IN GAS CHAMBER

CANON CITY, Colo, Nov. 10
Granted two hours of life because
of a banquet held at the prison,
Charles F. Silliman, 35, was exc
outed in the Colorado State Peni-
entiary gas chamber at 10 O'Clock
last night for the poisoning of his
wife.
: Silliman, convicted for his wife's
death after she and their four
year-old daughter died from drink
ing poisoned brandy, muttered Il
do not fear; 1 am going to a
better world" over and over as he
stumbled nervously up steep, half
mile-Pong Hill to the chamber,
supported by minister and a
prison guard.
Unaware that $50 guests were
singing and eating a turkey dinner
elsewhere in the prison, Silliman
spent his two extra hours praying
and talking with three ministers.
A red light burned atop the death
house, indicating there was to be
an execution, and could be seen
by the guests but the impending
execution had little effect on them
Executions normally are held at
8 p. M, but Warden RoyBest de-
layed Silliman's death until the
prison could be cleared of the
guests.

HOUSE TO ACT ON POLL
TAX BILL next week

By ERNEST E.. JOHNSON
WASHINGTON, June 6 (ANP)
The Marcantonio bill, HR-7, out
lawing the poll tax in seven south
ern states will come before the
house on June II and will be voted
upon sometime that week, it is now
assured.
The final signatures to the dis
charge petition were affixed on
Monday, and shortly after that, the
National Committee to Abolish the
Poll Tax issued this statement:
''The battle is not yet won. We

are now developing big campaign
to impress upon every congress-
man the need for being present and
for voting. There must be no alb
senteeism as an excuse for permit
ting this bill to be defeated.
The discharge motion was en-
tered on Feb. 19, and the requisite
218 signatures were listed on May
29. The record shows that 100 Dem
ocrats, 107 Republicans, / Progress
sive and / American Laborite had
signed the discharge petition.
Nearly five months have elapsed
since the bill was dropped" in the
hopper.
During the first session of the
18th congress the drive took only
three months to get the petition
completed. When the vote came up
on May 25, 1943, it passed 265 to
10. 1t lost out in the senate via
the filibuster route.
1t was under the steam of a BIZ
partisan steering committee that
the present bill made the progress
it did. These included George Ben
der of Ohio, Everett M. Dirksen of

Illinois and Charles R. Clauson of

and William L. Dawson of Him
ois, Helen Gahagan Douglas of
California, Adam C. Powell of New
York, and Hugh Delacy of Wash
ington, all Democats; and Vito
Marcatonio of New York, ALP.
The bill, if enacted into law,
would prohibit the imposition of
any poll tax as a condition of vot-
ing in an election, including pri-
maries, in which President, vice,
president, U. S. senators or repre-
sentatives are to be chosen.

Pets of any kind are UnWe1come
ia many resorts. National parks do
not admit pets of any kind because
they are sanctuary for wild ami
mails and birds, too.
/ believe the same prohibition Is
true in he rules governing almost
all state parks. However, some
resorts cater 10 pets and many
provide adequate kennel space and
care. and although pets are not
allowed in rooms. they can accom-
pany their owners. about the re-
sort grounds, on leash.
Vacation can be a trying time
for pet. Many are at large when
they are not used TO being free.
Some may endanger farm animals
and poultry, while some farm ami
mails are dangerous to strange eats
and dogs.
Leaving an animal behind with
neighborS IS not usually Satisfac-
tory as they, TOO, may decide 10
60 away and thus leave your pet
unattended.

Many large cities have boarding

Usually one can get helpful infor-
