4 e U.S.ANDENELISH FRIENDSHIP URGED | Sir Esme Howard Pleads for | Fratérnal Attitude of Mind | Between Nations. Unity of heart and understanding a8 a substitute for written compacts for alliances between the United States and Great Britain was urged by Sir Keme Howard, British Ambas- sador, in an address at the mee(ing‘ of the Twentieth Century Club at the Cosmos Club shortly afternoon toda Speaking on Anglo-Saxon unity, which he said he preferred to call a| unity of the English-speaking peoples. | Sir Esme declared that the kind of unity he would like to see between the two nations was that known as “a fraternal attitude of mind.”| coupled with a sense of confidence in| each other’s determination to prevent absurd war between the two nations, | and to keep “our two flags flving side | by side for the greater honor -and slory of God.

The members | of this false schogl. he declared, are “always eyveing nce the arma-| ments of the other { ‘If we are to spend large sums on | armaments,” he declared, “let us at! least do so without reference to the | armaments of the other, but only con- | sidering our own mecessities for pro- tection generally.

Ambassador Howard said he did not | mean to fmply that he is in favor of muintaining heavy armaments. In| fuct he deplored the expendityres by the nations of the world for military defenses. He cited as an example of the use to which these funds might be put the Congressional Library here, which he sald was built for permanent duration at a cost less than that of a modern battleship, which is expected to last no longer thau 10 vears. The Twentieth Century Club had as guest Dr. George F. Bowerman, librarian of the Public Library, to whom its president, Mrs. Phillip S. Smith, presented the club’s check for $500 to be used for the purchase of 6 prints of old masters’ paintings. Dr. Bowerman expressed his gratitude and said that the print collection which will be installed in the Public Library will be frequently loaned to the branch libraries. * Mre.

Police Close Resorts. Meanwhile the police are doing their utmost tc cope with the difficult situa- | tion. They have closed six notorious resorts of agitators in the interna- tional settlement. But murders which ave believed to be connected with po- litical plotting still are occurring. Gen.

Reed of Missouri countered with a declaration that he would hold the Senate in session until a vote had been obtained. After more than eight hours of conflict, leaders of the opposing ociated Press re- forces, in private conferences, reached | an agreement to provide action on the deficiency, alien property and build ings bills during the day and for con-| sideration of the campaign funds com- mittee resolution afterward. This agreement was presented the Senate by Reed of Missouri, who | asked unanimous consent for its adop- tion. There wa® a suggestion there would have to be a quorum call under the rules, La Follette Takes Hand. Senator Harrison, Democrat, Miss- issippi, asked that this be dispensed with by unanmous consent. “Even 1 would have to object that,” announced Senator La_Follette, Republican insurgent of Wisconsin, who for more than a week had been insisting that the Senate rules be com- plied with strictly. Harrison withdrew his amendm nt and as the quorum call proceded the two Reeds and Moses of New Hamp- shire gathered at a desk to perfett the wording of the agreement.

(Continued from %o irst_Page.) | there was a demand from Senator | Reed of Missouri as to whether these were the credentials signed by former Gov. Pinchot or whether they were some new credentials. Gov. Pinchot, |in signing Vare's credentials last | January, shortly before he left office, signed ‘them with a reservation that Vare “appears” {o have been elected and at the same time sent to Vice | President Dawes a letter charging cor- ruption in the nomination and elec- tion of Mr. Vare. Senator Reed of Pennsylvania’said that the credentials he was offering had been signed by Gov. Fisher, who { succeeded Pinchot, and that the cre-} dentials asserted without equivoca. | tion that Vare had been elected. | Missouri Senator Objects. | Immediately there were motions by Senator Reed of Missouri to reject, ! and later to refer the credentials to the committee on privileges and elec- tions, including the credentials which had been signed by Gov. Pinchot. Senator George of Georgia ¥offered a substitute by which the credentials signed by both governors and the let- ter writeen to Vice President Dawes by Gov. Pinchot would be referred to the privileges and elections commit tee, with instructions to that com mittee to report whether they should be received by the Senate. Senator Reed of Missourl, after fur- thur_wrangling, offered a new motion that both sets of the credentials should be referred to the committee on elec- tions. ’ Senator Reed of Pennsylvania insist- ed that the credentials he had cffered signed by Gov. Fisher were in regu- lar_order and that they did not .n reality conflict with those signed- by Sov. Pinchot. Credentials signed by the governor of Pennsylvania and stamped with the great seal of the State of Pennsylvania, he said, were being treated with no more respect by the Senate than if they had been a paper ned by a justice of the peace Kdge Takes Up Burde Senator Kdge of New Jersey took up the ‘burden of holding the floor for the filibusterers at 7 o'clock this morning, holding the floor for more than two hours The scene in the Senate resembled {in one particular the streets of Wash- {ington after Armistice day The floor |was strewn with scraps of paper, {white paper. pink paper, depending upon what the impatient Senators had laid hands on during the long hours of the night.

And then the fur began to fly. Senator Reed asked if these were the credentials which Gov. Pinchot had signed or some other document. nor, had sent a set of credentials to Mr. Vare before he left office, which cast doubt upon the validity of Mr. Vare's election, ac- companying them with a letter which went further into the subject.

After the Vice President had ruled that -the submission of the creden- tials and action on a motion to send them to the privileges and elections committee would not displace the Reed resolution as the unfinished business of the Senate, Senator Dill | of Washington, Democrat, protested | vigorously against the reading of the credentials. He did not want them received. “Presumptively this. document pre. sented’ by the Senator from Penn-| sylvania cannot be the credentials of Mr. Vare,” continued Senator Reed of Missourl. “It is unheard of that one man should have two sets of cre- dentials issued to him.

At this point Senator George offered his motion as a substitute for the Reed motion, to reject the credentials. The George motion proposed that the two sets of credentials and the letter to the Vice Presidént be sent to the committee on elections. “I suggest an amendment,” said| Senator Reed of Missouri, “as follows: “Together with such credentials as the Senator from Pennsylvania has in his possession.” You'd better name a committee to search me,"” said Senator Reed of Pennsylvania. . *‘Oh, no, we won't have to do that,” replied Senator Reed of Missouri. Senator Reed of Missouri said that he had made his first motion to reject “because at that time I felt the proper credential was not being presented. The situation is different now, be- cause the Senator from Pennsylvania has announced that he will file both redentials. 1 therefore with- Senator Reed of Missouri then of- fered his new motion to refer both sets of credentials to the committee on elections. ‘Any one who has heard the proceed- ing: said Senator Reed of Pennsyl- vania, ‘“now can understand why Pennsylvania does not want to see the Investigating committee headed by Senator Reed of Missduri continued.

Senator Reed of Pennsylvania in sisted that the credentials issued by Gov. Fisher do not conflict with those signed by Gov. Pinchot. e argued that the Senate could not refer them to a committee without receiving them. “The motion of Senator Reed of Missouri,” said Senator Reed of Penn- sylvania. “assumes that 1 offered these credentials. I did nothing of nd. I presented them." or Reed of Missouri declared are could have taken the cre dentials issued by Gov. Pinchot and put them in his pocket and never ap peared with them. “But when the Governor of Pennsyl- vania issued those credentials it was a completed act,” sald Mr. Reed of Missouri. If Gov. Pinchot, in his hostility to Mr. Vare, had said that Vare was not elected, does the Senator contend that no one could have corrected that situ- ation later?”” demanded Mr. Reed of Pennsylvania. Called Part of Filibuste: “In that case,” replied Mr. Reed of Missouri, “he would not have issued a certificate of election. It would have been a statement of non-election.” “It is quite evident that these cre- dentials are presented asa part of the fllibuster being conducted here,” said Senator Frazier of North Dakota. I cannot understand the few mem- Dbers on this side of the chamber who have opposed the resolution of the Senator from Missourl; there is evi dence enough against Senator-elect Vare to exclude him from this body." Senator Frazier declared it would be a calamity to defeat the deficfency appropriation bill which provides loans to soldlers, pensions to soldiers, and seed appropriations for farmers in drought-stricken aveas. He declared was nothing short of a dis- grace to hold up the public buildings bill and alien property bill. “I do not want it understood that 1 am taking part in this filibuster,” con- tinued Mr. Frazier. “But since time is being wasted, I want to speak for a few moments on the Mexican situa- tion. T am opposed to interference by the United States in the affairs in Nicaragua and even more opposed to any disturbance of our relations with Mexico.” TWO YOUNG WOMEN MISSING FROM HOMES Miss Catherine Hutchinson of Colesville and Mrs. K.

Marcus of Los Angeles, towhom “Jerry' submitted to !a hypnotic trance in September, 1925. } Dr. Marcus, requesting to be sub- poenaed before the veterans’ commit tee, declared in the message that his records would “convince both the con- gressional and medical committees” that Tarbot “was an American soldier in the wa Free intends to interview Dr. us when he goes to California Sunday, after Congress adjourns, and bring him to Washing ton when the investigation is re- opened next Fall Talked It was through given by arbot” while spell of hypnotism that several of the soldlers who testified as having seen him in France were traced. Referring to this incident today, Tarbot said: ‘“The stenograph notes of my statements while under this hypnotic spell will show that I recalled many incldents of the battle of Belleau Woods and persons whom 1 had known but could give no information as to my nar.e. When Dr. Marcus asked me, about my identity, I raved and could only reply: “The Kaiser stole it and keeps it in his vest pocket." " Aside from desiring to establish k war record, both Mr. Carter and “Tar bot” were fearful of the effects of the cloud of suspicion that hangs over the man as a result of Chairman John's charge before the com- mittee. “Jerry is absolutely dependent upon himself, ald Mr. Free. “He is sup- porting himself by any kind of work he can find and is_pa his own | expenses here at the Y <.

Action to Be Postponed.
