WATERTOWN, Conn., June 21.—For decorating with their school colors, flags and evergreens the large granite soldiers’ memorial shaft in the middle of the town, John Garfield, a senior, son of for- mer Secretary of the Interior James Gar- field; Harry Crocker of San Francisco and Frank Andrews and John Dunham, both of New York, were expelled from Taft School last night by Horace Taft, the principal, who is a brother of «resi- dent Taft.

No Action Possible This Session. In reply the members of the commit- tee declared that it is an impossibility to get Congress to act upon any retire- ment measure during the remainder of this session. Even a temporary mi ure of relief, it was suggested, will meet opposition on the ground that it would be an-entering wedge. Prefer- ence was expressed for having the clerks who are threatened with dis. missal continued on the pay rolls until some retirement plan of a comprehen- sive character can be acted upon by Congress, and _in that connection the appeal to the President was suggested. Following the public hearing the com- mittees met in executive session. It was formally decided that nothing could be done by the committees this session. The one encouraging feature of the meeting however, was the evident desire of the members of the committee to reach some compramise on a retirement meas- ure that can be presented at some future session of Congress, probably the next. While the committee decided against making any formal statement to the President regarding its position, he will be informed that the committees are working in an effort to reach a com- promise agreement’ at the earliest mo- ment. It was urged that the committee come definite statement to the President as to what Congress will do toward the establishment of a civil service retire- ment system. But the committees de- cided that they had no authority to make ‘any promises; and the President will be only informally told that the com- mittees are making efforts to agree upon some plan. Gen.

Rumors of a filibuster against the measure filled the air this morning. It was because of these reports and the further prediction that the absence of the President from Washington tomorrow would be - taken advantage of to so amend ¢ bill in the Senate as to make its passage impossible in either branch of the national legislature, that the President decided to re- main at the White House from now until the day of adjourn- ment.
