PRESIDENT SIGNS HOST OF MEASURES Chief Executive Has Lull in| Hour Before Noon, Wait- ing at Capitol. Brushing aside all other Lusiness, President Coolidge devoted himself ex-| clusively to the task of signing bills today during the closing hours of | C 3 8. H After approving more than 100 meas: ures late yesterday afternoon and last night, the President deserted his desk at the Executive Office this morning and went to the Capitol With @ staft | of aides to sign bills ax they passed the two branches of Congress. During | the first hour after his arrival in the President’s room adjoining the Se ate, however, he almost found lagging on his hands. Four bills were permiited to through the filibuster that was still raging in the Senate chamber andj these the President promptly signed. | They constituted, however, his entire task between the hours of 11 o lock tin l Departure a Mystery | [ | | | and noon, in vivid contrast to pre vious years when Presidents arviving at the Capitol found their desk stucke high with legislation awalting their signature. Capital Vitally Interested. A number of the bills signed by the President within the last 24 hours are | of vital interest to Washington. One; of the measures which the Senate tem porarily lifted the filibuster to let| through was the arboretum bill. which | it had been feared would fail because | of the deadlock. Having been previous. | ly passed by the House, the bilt was | hurried immediately to the President’s | desk and was there made a law by his | signature shortly before noon. i Another bill of immediate interest to | Washington, which received the Presi dent’s approval, authorized the ac- Juisition of the site by the Commis sioners of the Distiict of Columbia for the Farmer Produce Market. The bill permits the Commissioners to ac quire land for that purnose cither by purchase or condemnation and appro- priated $600,000 for the site. Iron Gate Removal. Of special interest to motorists is | the bill directing that the iron gates in West Executive avenue between the White House and the State, War and Navy Building be removed. These gates, which were intended to afford rotection to the Government build- | ings within them in times of war, | have long ago outgrown thelr useful- ness and have been & menace to pe- destrians and motorists alike. Another bill which received the President’s approval provided for the retirement of William H. Santelmann, leader of the United States Marine Band. Lord Accompanies Chief. President Coolidge was accompanied to the Capitol by Herbert M. Lord,| director of the Bureau of the Budget; his personal secretaries and an en- tire staff of White House attaches to be prepared to handle legislation that ‘was brought to him with the utmost speed and accuracy. He was met in his office in the Senate by the mem- bers of his cabinet, who were to ad- vise him on legislation affecting each particular department. The first four bills to reach him were H.B. 1064, authorizing the pur- chase of additional land for the Shiloh National Military Park at advanced prices; 8.B. 4247, amending an act by the civil government of Porto Rico: 8.B. 5788, extending the time for the construction of a bridge across the Mississippi River in Henapin County, Minnesota; S.B. 1661, fixing the juris- diction of a court to hear the claim of Mrs. P. D. Bodkins. President Coolidge remained at the Capitol about an hour and a half. In that time he signed only 24 bills and 4 joint resolutions, a striking contrast to previous years, when the number of bills for the President to sign on the last day of Congress was close to 150. Since late yesterday afternoon the total number of bills that have re- celved the President's signature was 164, Signs Dry Measure. Among many bills signed today by President Coolidge during the closing hours of the session was the prohibi- tion reorganization measure, creating separate bureaus for prohibition en- forcement and customs in the Treas- ury Department and putting prohibi- tion agents under the civil service. Other measures signed include: Appropriating $75,000 to pay the ex- penses of the American commission to the preliminary disarmament con- ference in Geneva.

Dawes. Vic President and arch-foe of filibustering verything that Mr. Dawes said in speeches about the pow one two Senators to defeat the will of | the majority hax heen vindicated. | For while the cloture rule, which has | been invok m time to time, is rly in a session, it can do in the closing hours of session which expires automatic: at noon on March 4 Mr. Dawes has pointed fo the in flexibility of the Senute rules as a menace to the legislative | s of the American Cong ot only does the Senate affect its| own series of measures but 1t Llocks the House of Representatives whose approval had in this instance been given many bills, and it. of course, deprives the President of ti JppOrtunity to exercise his const tutional right to take the last step that ¢ jes a bill into the status of a his o no good serious i sress. | W Rules Are Respounsible. for the fili The few days Is in- responsibility busters of the last e pable. 1t is the Senate rules Both Republicans and Democrats huve used the privilege alternately Senator Reed of Pennsylvania, Re- publican, wanted to prevent the Senate campaign fund investigating | committee from touring the country after adjournment of Congress. Sen- ator Reed of Missouri, leading virtually all of the Democrats, fell that excessive expenditure of funds as. in Ilinois and Pennsylvania | investigated | Mr. Reed is looked upon by his friends as a likely candidate for the Democratic presidential nomination. There are some Senators who feel his committee still has authority to| investigate and that the request for the passage of the resolution while | seeking to make certain of that au thority is really not needed. The ill feeling stirred up among the spon sors of important legislation, the power of an individual Senator to ex- | press a single objection which can block the whole action of the Senate, in fact, the legislative machinery of the whole Government, is nothing really new. It has confronted previous sessions of Congress. But the resent ment s a bit more intense and the agitation started by Vice President Dawes may bear fruit at last Could Call Extra Session Naturally, the President can cure the present situation by calling for an extra session Many Senators would like to have that happen. Mr. Coolidge has been urged to let Con- gress go home. He has never called an extra session since he took the oath of office fn August, 1923. He might. of course, get Congress started September 1, especially since tax revision is due to be taken up next time, On the whole, the situation that de- veloped in the last few days was fore. seen from the start of the session. The opponents of a piece of legislation knew that delay was an effective weapon because a flibuster in the last few days of the session would be ea to accomplish. A minority, therefore, ruled this Senate. Sometimes it i known that if a measure came to a vote it would pass. Thus with the Reed resolution on campaigns and elections. Few Senators would ven- ture to be recorded as against inves tigation for fear they might be under- stood as having something to conceal or deferid either in their own States or in the States of their party col- leagues. So the filibuster is really an attempt to prevent any vote being taken, most of the filibusters being confident that parliamentary mix-ups and con- fusion will not permit the averags citizen to locate the individual or in- dividuals mostly responsible for the legislative jam. Mr. Dawes is due to tour the country again to ask the American people to bring pressure to bear to make the Senate function something like the House of Repre- sentatives.

In| doing it followed the unanimous recommendation of its judic] y com- mittee, Judge Cooper was charged by Repre. sentative Ta Guardia of New York with having conspired with prohibition enforcement officlals to entrap liquor law violators and with having later sat in judgment over the men entrapped. Mr. La Guardia also accused Cooper of usurping power in connection with bankruptey cases. While certain activities of Judge Cooper, with relation to the manner of procuring evidence in cases which would come before him for trial are not to he considered as approved by this report,” the judiciary committee aid, “the evidence does not call for the interposition of the constitutional powers of the House with regard to impeachment.” Chairman Graham said the report was adopted without a dessenting vote. s0 CHECKER EXPERT TRAINS LIKE FOOT BALL PLAYER By ths Assoclated Pree: PARIS, March 4.—The checker player who wishes to rise above the average must train llke a foot ball player, says M. Springer, a young Paris accountant who startled the checker world by playing and winning two matches simultaneously, blind- fold. The feat, he explained, was much harder than that of the chess player who plays a dozen or so matches at the same time. The absence of dis- tinctive playing pleces, such as knights, bishops and castles, makes the play much harder to remember, he declared. The French checker game, it must be added, is played upon a board of 100 squares, and many intricate moves are permitted. M. Springer abstains from all alco- | ishing |iness and STAR.
