CONGRESS 1S FACING SOME FIGHTS TODAY House Approves Abandon- ment of Impeachment Charges Against English Washington, Dec. 11—) — The enate and house each had several -ights on its hands today. The housé had before it the $259,- + 86,000 interior department appro- sriation, but the first order of busi- 1ess_ in that chamber was a report hy Representative Michener, Repub- tican, Michigan, recommending dis- nissal of impeachment proceedings against Judge William English. In the senate, not only were dif- ferences over the poison gas treaty pervading the atmosphere, but a row had developed over a bill to authorize construction of a bridge across the Columbia river between Longview, Wash., and Ranier, Oregon. Impeachment of Judge English was voted by the house at the last ses- sion. He resigned, however, shortly before November 10, the date set for his trial before the senate, and the house prosecutors decided to recom- mend that the proceedings be dropped. Representative Laguardia, Republi- can, New York, hows has objected to such a course, insisting that the trial proceed. Dismissal of the proceedings was sustained 286 to 22 on the roll call. pistes HOUSE VOTES ABANDONMENT OF IMPEACHMENT CHARGES Washington, Dec, 11—()—Aban- donment of impeachment charges against Federal Jud; George W. English of Mlinois approved to- day by the house on a standing vote. The vote was 167 to 15, and after it was announced members opposed to dropping the charges demanded a formal roll calf vote. They contended during the debate that abandonment of the charges, which, included use of profanity from the bench, irregular handling of bankruptcy cases, and other “mis- demeanors” would amount to a ver- dict of not guilty, The prosect of the case, however, held to’ the stand that no good could result from its continuation, inasmuch as the jurist had resigned on the eve of his trial by the senate. Nebraskan May Be Given Recognition For Bravery in ’62 Omaha, Neb., Dec. 11—()—After 64 years, Burlington Cunningham, a Nebraskan, may receive recognition for bravery in action under a bill in- troduced in the house by Representa- tive Howard, Nebraska, The bill proposes that a congres- sional medal be awarded Cunning- ham for brave conduct in the face of the enemy in the battles of An- tietam, Maryland, September 17, 1862, and Gettysburg, July, 1863. a sergeant in cam ment, Indiana V.

Radium is extensively used in caticer cases. Official circles feel that the trip to the French capital would be a good thing for two reasons—first, the king’s life might be saved and, sec- ond, should the king die in Paris, it woul eliminate the necessity of hav- ing former Crown Prince Carol re- ‘turn to Bucharest.

Many North Dakota veterans are expected to take adv eof the loan provision .f the law to turn their certificates into cash, | Fraser said. ; Loans on the certificates may be made only by certain restricted fi- nancial instituti If such loans are made by an individual the loan is void and the person loaning the money is suject to prosecution under a federal statute. The law provides that such loans may by made by any national bank or any bank or trust company incorporated under the laws of any state. Borrower Gives Note To obtain a loan the veteran gives | & promissory note to the bank ad- vancing the mon The amount of the loan may not exceed 90 per cent of the reserve value of the certifi- cate at the end of the current cer- tificat year, Care should be taken to inguish between the face value and the reserve value of the certificates, Fraser said. The rate of interest to be charged on such loans is limited and may not exceed by more than two per cent per annum the rate charged at the date of the loan for a discount of 90-day commercial paper by the federal reserve bank for the district in which the bank making the loan is located. The bank making the loan may sell the note to any other bank which would be authorized t jue the loan in the first place but not to an in- dividual. Banks selling such notes must no- tify the veteran by mail at his last known postoffice address. If a note given by a veteran has not been paid when it falls due the bank will send the note and the cer- tificate to the director of the United States Veteran Bureau at Washing- ton. The director will pay the note and place the amount of the payment as a li i The veteran will have the option of paying it at any time. Six Per Cent Interest If the note remains unpaid it draws interest at the rate of six per cent, compounded annually, and at the maturity of the certificate the director will pay the veteran or to his beneficiary named in the certif- jeate, the original amount of the certificate less the accrued value of the loan. In a letter to the adjutant general, C. T. Hoverson, regional manager of the veterans’ bureau at Fargo, has veterans who ure entitled to the ad- dressed to the adjutant general be cared for by yeferring the veterans to their nearest banker. “The banks will undoubtedly have information as to this feature of the law and will definitely know their rights with re- spect thereto,” he said. Opinion was expressed at the ad- jutant general’s office that many veterans who are enttiled to the ad- justed compensation have failed to make application for it. Those who have not heretofore done so are ad- vised to send in their claims as quickly as possible. Adjustment is made on the basis of $1 a day for service in the United States and $1.25 a day for service overseas. Those having only comparatively small amounts due them will be paid in cash, it was said at the adjutant general's office, ae PRESENTATION -OF EVIDENCE IS COMPLRFED Both Prosecution and #efense Rest Today Followfig a Brief Session McCORMICK IS WITNESS Court Adjourns Until Mon- day, When Closing Argu- _ ments Will Be Made Washington, Dec. 11.—()—Pre- sentation of evidence was completed today in the trial of Albert B.
