(Continued from Page One) the first time such action had been teken in the history of the Legis- lature, it was lxlmvul WASHINGTON, Feb. 18—The ar- rival of Lieutenant General Walter Krueger in Australia to take com- mand of a new field army of Am- erican troops, was today announced by Secretary of War Henry L. Stimson. Krueger, formerly Commander of the Third Army Headquarters at San Antonio, Texas, went to Aus- tralia at the request of Gen. Doug- | las MacArthur, Stimson said, be- cause the strength of the American forces in the Southwest Pacific has reached such proportions that an crganization of a Pield Army there appeared desirable. Gen. MacArthur. retains his post as Commander-in-Chief of the Al- lied forces in the Southwest Pacific. - "PEACE” IN NAVY OLEAN, N. ‘1 that the President appoint a com- mittee on rules to confer with a like committee from the House on the reason for the failure to ac- cept the bounty bill. Another Refusal The climax came later in day when the House received message and Speaker Davis that with the permission of House, the ‘“chair will refuse . appoint such a committee.” Although Rep. Frank H. Whaley did not object to the ruling, he questioned. it,- saying he did not wish to see a deadlock. Speaker Davis' ruling was sus- tained by a 10-5 vote, Representa- | \tives Crystal Snow Jenne, Stanley | McCutcheon, Wallace Porter, Leo Rogge and Whaley voted against the ruling. Speaker Davis commented: ~I decline to appoint a cammittee to act on an illegal matter.” The argument centers around this point. It Is whether the Senate can reconsider a bill after it has been killed when a motion to re- consider is not made on the same day the measure fails to pass, even when the rules are suspended. The conflict does not involve the eagle bounty repeal bill as much as it does the question of the interpre- tation of the rules. Two Opinions At least two Senators, although they declined to be quoted were of the opinion that the Senate will nct accept any bills from the House until the matter is settled. That an actual deadlock will oc- cur will not be definite until all| Senators express their opinions to-| morrow, or when the House sends a bill to the Senate. | During the 1933 session, a sim- | ilar battle arpse over the appro- priations bill. At that time, the House sent the measur® to the cenate and refused to accept it back on the ggounds that the Sen- ate had changed the bill so much | that it wasn’t the same measure. | Later the Senate conceded and »mended the original bill. Today's refusal by the House to accept a Senate bill, however, was the this said the to —The Navy has “Peace” twins in the service, Hu- bert Peace, 18 of Knapps Creek, Olean high school senior, has re- ported for duty at Norfolk, Va. where his twin brother, Herbert, Jr., has beou slnm July " BARNEY GOOGLE AND SNUF FY SMITH SSEN ,MARD B\RD o 969« WNGELF, JUST GENT FOR ME QN (E T GET BAWLED OWT ON NOUR ACCOUNT, | WART.

In “The Ape THESE HUMAN GUINEA PIGS WILL DIE Karloff plays a Jekyll-Hyde type Victims of the mad of role; by day a physician in a small town, at night, a huge ape genius who ex which prowls in the outlying dis- tricts in search of vietims. Karloff, in the part of Doctor Adrian, has devoted his life to dis- covering a cure for infantile par- alysis. His one desire is to make| his only remaining patient, the beautiful Frances walk again He has tried many cures with- cut success until he stumbles upon a serum which he thinks may work. But he must have liquid from | the spinal column of a human be- | ing to make the serum complete The problem of how to get the| liquid is solved when a huge ape| \which has escaped from a circus, cnters the doctor’s laboratory. The ! doctor kills the animal, and in its skin, turns night marauder. Doctor in gets enough fluid from sev- € victims to be sure that he is cn the track of a cure for Frances. | He believes that one more injection will be sufficient But in the meantime, the town has organized a posse to kill the ipe, not knowing that it is the dis- uised Adrian.
