By a vote of 214 to 123 the House !under a special rule yesterday passed |the administration railroad funding bill, which now goes to the Senate. An unsuccessful effort was made to eliminate -a section which provides that no payments shall be made h¥ the government to any carriers “on account of the so-called inefciency of labor” during federal control.

Apother Amendment Rejected. Another provision of the section which Mr. Webster failed to have stricken out stipulated that no funds all be used in making settlements with carriers which do not “forever ! bar such carriers from setting up any or demands of ter against the out of or con- n. use or further claim, righ ed operation of such property v the United States during the pe- od of federal control.” Proponents of the measure succeed- ed in voting down all motions to amend the bill in important particu- iars .and as passed the measure, ex- cept for a few minor changes, is in the form in which it was reported to the House.

REED DENIES REPORTS. Senator Explains Position of Pro- hibition Advocates. Denial is made by Senator Reed, democrat, of Missouri, in a statement is- sued last night of circulated reports to [ the effect that he had attacked prohibi- tionists and “likened them to the bur- ners of wiches. “I have never criticised any man be- cause he is a prohibitionist, and recog- nize the right of every individual to be- lieve in and to advocate absolute Pro- hibition,” he said. “I stated in my speeches that the eighteenth amendment, being a part of the Constitution, was binding on m and everybody e stated that 1 had made no opposition to the Volstead act because I recognze the fact that the eighteenth amendment was the fundamental law of the land. “That is still my position. But the issue now befgre Congress is not pro- hibition or anti-prohibition. The ques- tion now presented is whether the fourth amendment to thec Constitution, which guarantees the citizen against un- reasonable searches and : seizures, and es that searches and seizures can on be made pursuant to a warrant issued by a court, shall be nullified by statute in so far as a statute can work that outrageous end. When it comes Jto such a question as that I propose to stand by the fourth amendment.” There is no question about the value of these Caps By a special purchase we are able to offer these splendid caps to you: man.
