10 ITY GLUB'S HOME SHOWS PROGRESS Members Predict Completion of Handsome $800,000 ! Building in Six Months. Officials of the City Club expect its Tiew clubhouse, now under construction on G stret, between 13th and lith streets, to be ready for occupancy within six months. It was pointed out today that the work is pro- ceeding ahead of schedule, and plans for the formal opening already are being considered. A view of the work on the new building, which will give the club more than 60,000 square feet of floor | space, exclusively for club purposes, indicates that the officials’ expecta- tions are justified. The concrete for | the third floor of the big four-story building is now being poured and the | stonework of the front is far enough | advanced to give an indication of the appearance of the building when com- pleted. Style of Architecture. The architecture of the building, ac- cording to Frederic B. Pyle, its de- signer, is_peculiarly appropriate for the organization which it will house, being known as Washingtonian Greek, a graceful and dignified style develop- ed by Washington architects in the 1820s and peculiar to this seciion. Characterized by _simplicity and strength, this style is working out to give to the building the charm of the ancient Greek civic structures, to- gether with the touch that is peculiarly | ‘Washingtonian. - The building is being developed in |KEEPING UP WITH THE JONESES—A Sunstroke Was Right.

Senator Ball, chairman of the District committee, will make another effort at the first opportunity next week to have Indiana buff, the same stone of which the Treasury annex. at Pennsylvania avenue and Madison place, is built. Massiveness is given by the unusual height of each story: and the build- ing, although scheduled as a four- story structure, will have ample mez- zanines, making it in reality a six- story building, exclusive of the stores @nd club lobby on the main floor. Details of the interior furnishings and decorations are now being devel- ‘oped, it is announced. and contracts soon’ will be let for this work. With the exception of dormitories and one or two ther minor features, the club's facilities will equal thase of the Boston City Club, the largest organi- Zzation of its kind in the country, hav- ing a membership of 7,500, according 10 the club’s, magazine. Laying of Corner Stome. The corner stone of the new build- ing—the gift of the Kiwanis Club— will be lai} some time in October, it is announced, with appropriate cere- monies, which also will mark the be- ginning of a drive for 500 new mem- bers. Handling of applications for the four stores on the ground floor has been turned over to a rentals committee headed by Roy L. Neuhauser, the club’s secretary, and including Charles W. Semmes, first vice president; M. Rosenberg, general counsel, and Morton J. Luchs. The high character of the building and its desirable location al~l ready have brought applications for three times the number of stores available, it is stated. The committee will folow the practice of other simi lar clubs about the country in re- stricting_the type of stores tg those which will be in keeping with the dig- nity of the building. . The present club bulding on Farragut Square, which has been sold to the Women’s National Collegiate Club, will be occupied by the City Club until its new home is completed and will be the £cene of numerous forum addresses, gen- eral meetings and social affairs this fall, it is announced. Plans are now being made for the resumption of general ac- tivities next month. The club’s new home, when completed, will represent an invesment of more than $800,000. e ——— CITY NEWS IN BRIEF.

Many Employes Here Expected to Go to Pen-Mar. Scores of employes of the Baltimore and Ohio railroad who live in Wash- | ington are expected to attent the gn- nual picnic of the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad Company’'s Veterans' Asso- ciation, to be held at.Pen Mar, Pa., August 10. It is estimated fully 10,000 people will attend the picnic| from Washington, Baltimore, Fred- erick, Hagerstowa, Brunswick, Mar- tinsburg, Camberland and other points as well as from towns on the Phil- adelphia division toward Wilming- ton. For ‘many years the picnic was known as the “Jennie Smith" picnic, in honor of the woman who devoted 2 large part of her life to the_evan- gelization of railroad men. Yearly the assoclation members journeyed to Island Park at Harpers Ferry. But Island Park passed into other hands, and although Miss Smith lives in ‘Washington, her advanced age pre- vents her from attending the picnics. _Three special trains will carry the picnickers to Pen Mar, the morning of August 10, decorated with flags and bunting and bearing the names of officials of the road. —_— BOYS LEAVE HOME SCHOOL. Herman Woodfork and Theodore Bradford. colored inmates of Indus- trial Home School. Blue Plains, took French leave of the institution yes- terday. The former s fourteen and tter sixteen years es are residents of this city, the bill extending the life of the District rent act to May 22, 1922, disposed of by the Scnate. He said today that he would aik to make the bill a speaial order for ness for a given day. Yesterday the bill was dcbated for about half an hour in the Senate and an amendment was adopted to clarify the meaning, so that there would be no doubt but that apartment houses and hotels, used for liv purposes, ,would be covered by the rent act as contued. | But the measure was compelled to give way to the anti-beer bill, the unfinished business of the Senate, at 2 o'clock. The Senate having taken a recess yes- terday until Monday at noon, instead of having adjourned. there will be no op- portunity for consideration of the rent bill on Monday, in all probability, Sena- tor Ball said. But he will seize the first opportunity that presents itself to bring the measure to the attention of the Sen- ate again. It is not believed that a filibuster will be attempted against this measure. In fact, senators who are opposed to the legislati have, nevertheless, indicated they will not seek to prolong debate on it. on |WILL TAKE FINAL VOTE ON FORD-NEWBERRY CASE Senate Privileges and Elections Committee to Decide Election Contest Next Tuesday. The Senate privileges and elections committee will take a final vote next Tuesday, under an agreement reached yesterday, on the election contest be- tween Senator Newberry, republican, Michigan, and Henry Ford, his demo- cratic contestant, in the 1918 election. By straight party votes, the com- mittee today rejected democratic de- mands for examination on the wit- ness stand of Senator Newberry and his campaign managers and for oral arguments of the case. The full committee will act next Tuesday on the report prepared by Senator Spencer, republican, Missouri, chairman of the subcommittee which conducted the investigation. The re- port, submitted confidentially to the full committee, was understood to re ommend dismissal of Mr. Ford's con- test and to declare that virtually all of his charges of fraud, excessive use of funds and irregularities, were un- founded. Several minority reports by demo- cratic senators, giving the opposite of the republican findings, are in prep- aration. The republicans are expected to approve the Spencer report Tues- day, and the democrats will have ten days to file dissenting views. The case will then go to the Senate, where a bitter and protracted controversy is in prospect before final action. MUCH TARIFF BILL WORK STILL BEFORE SENATORS Finance Committee Expects to- Be Kept Busy on Measure for Many Weeks. The Senate finance committee, it was admitted today, has-still much work to do in connection with the tariff bill—work that will keep the com- mittee busy for weeks to come. It Las not yet been able to conmsider in executive sessions the American valua- tion plan adopted by the House or the proposed dye embargo which was re- jected by the House. Indications that senators will de- mand figures on production. costs and profits and a multitude of other de- tails of the dye and chemical business developed. Senator La Follette, re- publican, Wisconsin, announced 'that he had prepared a list of questions covering such subjects and proposed to propound them to all witnesses. In his efforts .he has the support of half a dozen other members, amdng them Senator Watsop, republican, Indiana. Chairman Penrose had planned early in the week to begin executive ses- sions next Thursday. The dye em- bargo controversy, however, has de- veloped so much discussion that it was said the testimony will probably not be concluded by that time. The subject has brought letters from Secretaries Weeks and. Denby, it was announced, although. the letters have not been made public. They are understood, ‘hopever, to express the keen interest ®f the War and Navy departments in the matter from the standpoint of nationa] defense. COAL MEN FLAY FORD. - Protest to I. C. C. Against Request to Cut Freight Rates. Characterizing Henry Ford, owner of the Detroit, Toledo and Ironton railroad as “an -overzealous entye- preneur” who should not be permit- ted “for purposes of his own to break down freigh rates” upon which a number of railroads principally de- pend_for their livelihood, the North- ern West Virginia Cogl Association has protested to the Interstate Com- merce Commission against coal rate reductions proposed for Mr. Ford's road. he association was joined in its protest by other coal operators’ or- ganizations in the Harlan, Hazzard and South Appaldchian coal mine dis- tricts of Kentucky and West Vir- ginia. The protest declared that the reductions proposed on coal shipped from river points by the Ford road, as well as rates on.coal originating at other points on the road, would break down the entire rate structure in the Ohio territory. The rate which it is proposed to reduce, it was ex- plained, is based fundamentaily on the Hocking rate, which is the key tari Sor ewe istrict. - LOOK TOEXTENDHISACT iness and weight,” |way of saying, FELLOW - ITS A nan!

These undesirable articles take up a page and a quarter of very small type in the bulletin. Cautlous About Counterfeit. The country is particularly care- ful about handling any counterfeit coin in her mails. In fact, Australia seems not to like any kind of counter- feit, no matter how good it may be, because the letter not only puts “false coin” on the prescribed list, but also “counterfeit sterling coin™ and “coins in use in the dominions of the king which have not legal fine- which is a delicate “Please don't pass any thin dimes or shillings on us® And then again, the government seems to regard anything coming out of a®prison or penitentiary as unde- sirable.

Although postal receipts for July, 1921, were more than twice what they were for that month ten years ago, they dropped off 5 per cent from last year’s July figure for the country and 1.78 per cent for the District's July statistics, according to a .tabulated statement issued yegterday by Post- master General Hays# Fifty selected cities. form the basis for estimation. New York dropped off almost a quarter million dollars in receipts, while Chicago’s drop was more than $100,000. In Washington the receipts for July, 1921, were $269,761, as compared to $274,651 for July, 1920, a decrease of $4,890. Figures for the fifty cities showell a decrease of $997,572.36. e A. A. A.

The exécutive committee of the American Automobile Association, in resolutions adopted Thursday, took a decisive stand against imposition of the proposed federal license tax on automobiles.
