$32353,328 FUND FOR DEFICIENCIES Veterans’ Bureau Would Get $55,750,000 and Highways - $34,000,000. By the Associated Press. A deficlency appropriation of $92,393,- 328, including $55750,000 to meet emergencies in the administration of veterans' affairs and $34,000,000 to Fed- eral highway aid, was recommended | today to the House by its Appropriation | Committee. ! The sum of $36,250,000 was needed, the committee reported, for aid to vet- erans authorized under the pension and disablility act of last July, while $19,- 500,000 is required to meet the increased pensions granted Civil and Spanish- American War veterans under the lber- alized act of last June. Gen. Ffank T. Hines, administrator of veterans’ affairs, advised the commit- tee that further sums probably would be needed before the end of this Con- gress as a result of new legislation nting disability compensation and ospitalization to men not injured in the war. Road Aid Item Explained. ‘The $34,000,000 item for Federal highway aid was to meet expenditures of States under the fund increased last year from $75,000,000 to $125,000,000 annually and to assist in the disposal of the $80,000,000 recently made avail- able for State use on highway construc- ion. The Agriculture Department also ob- tained $675,000 to reimburse Arizona cotton growers who were prevented by g:nk boll worm quarantine from grow- g a crop and $38,980 for administra- tion of the warehouse act due to storing wheat and cotton by the Federal Farm Board. An allotment of $605,760 was made to the Justice Department, of which $543,- 370 is for the Prohibition Bureau. Hines Issues Warning. Testifying before the committee on the present measure, Gen. Hines warned that care must be taken by Congress in legislating for the World War vet- erans. “We have 4,500,000 to deal with” he said, “and any benefit granted, no mat- ter how small, is bound to run into ter- rific amounts of money when you take it in the aggregate. “The economic situation created dur- ing the past year by reason of the exist- ing business depression and the Nation- wide publicity given to the present law by ex-service men’s organizations * * * has had its effect in causing the filing of claims by veterans who were prob- ably carrying on and would not have filed them otherwise.” Famous Statue in New York Har- bor Favored by Committe By the Associated Press. A more brilliant Liberty, resplendent with new attire, may cast a prouder glow of welcome to homesick Americans next year. Improving and refinishing the exte- rlor of the famous statue in New York Harbor, instaling a new automatic elevator within and doubling the flood- lighting power without, was recom- mended by the House Appropriations Committee today in the Army supply bill. The cost was set at $58.465, phus $6,997 for additional electricity. SHIPPING NEWS Arrivals n;' -ndy!l-lllnn From ARRIVED. Bermuda .

In testimony on the War Department supply bill, which allots $254,740 for operating Wilson Dam next year, Brown said the Tennessee Power Co. has “hooked up with the Alabama Power Co. mainly to play with the Alabama Power Co.” Only One Customer. “And you are just at the mercy of that power company,” summed up Rep- resentative Wright, Democrat, Georgi: after Brown had testified. “They are the only customer. Whatever they have a mind to pay you for what power they want to take, they pay. That is it in a nutshell, is it not?” “That is the way I look at it right now."” replied Brown. The chief engineer said that last year he had increased the guarantee re- quired of the Alabama Power Co. from $500,000 to $560,000. “I would have raised them still more Britanni Calamares—FPort _Limon C DUE TODAY. n Legion—Buenos Aires.December 19 —Liverpool ...........December 21 8!

PARIS, Janu 5.—Men who fought with Marshal Joffre at the Marne and obtained a badge of honor there, and others who live the lives they do today because that batle was fought and won, today in sad single file past the bier of the savior of France. There was audible, visible weeping as the thousands, crushed close togeth- er outside the Ecole Militaire until 9 o'clock, lined in to take their final {‘lllnce at the body of Marshal Joffre, e former Prench commander in chief, laid out on & camp bed in the chapel of the old Military Academy. Sword at His Feet. Hands folded and holding a crucifix, sword reposing on his black-blue cape over his feet, and wearing a single decoration, the French Military Medal, the body of the marshal was laid out with all the simplicity which has marked his career from the days of the victory at Timbuctoo to death Saturday in the little room of the H%fllefll St. Jean de Dieu. body is clad in the loose black coat and obsolete red breeches of a colonial general of division, which was the rank Joffre held at the battle of the Marne. On 19 pillows placed about the simple camp bed are his other 48 decorations and honors. At each cor- ner of the bed there stands an officer at attention. At the head another sub- officer, while at each corner of the catalfalque there is a mortar, em- blematic of French warfare. Crowd Shows Grief. ‘The crowd which has lined past the body today seems most unre- strained; hands have been clenched, tears shed unashamed and gaunt, griz- zled men have uttered sobs as pitiful as those of children. Among them have been men with patches on their eyes, some on crutches, some on, wooden legs, others without arms and many more showing the traces of other Wwar- time wounds. The line will continue to pass be- fore the bier until perhaps 10 o'clock tonight and will be resumed tomorrow. Wednesday at dawn the body “will be taken out for & dual religious and state funeral, which will differ in only & few details from that of Marshal Foch, who proceded him nearly two years to the grave. From the Ecole Militaire the body will go to Notre Dame for the requiem of the church. Edge to Represent U. S. Ambassador Walter E. Edge will rep- resent the United States &t the services in Notre Dame Cathedral and probably will walk in the cortege with the rest of the diplomatic corps. A n‘:omem.’s stop will be made be- neath the Arc de Triomphe, and then on to the Invalides, where it will be‘ placed temporarily in the sacristy not | far from the tomb of Napoleon. | The body was brought to the Ecole | Militaire Chapel at dawn today from | the hospital in a plain black hearse of | the type familiar in France. A crowd which had gathered outside stood with bared heads and police opened a way through them for the hearse without difficulty. Not 1{r from where the marshal lies | is the old office where he wrote the | memoirs which are to be published one year after his death. The manuscript is locked away in an iron safe and the office itself is deserted. JUDGE TO DECIDE FATE OF CONVICTED SLAYER Colquitt Davis Convicted in Okla- homa Killing of Pisturesque Peace Officer. By the Associated Press. ARDMORE, Okla, January 5.— Colquitt Davis, 20, found guilty of the murder of Con Keirsey, picturesque Ardmore peace officer, awaited a judge’s deliberation today on his sentence. A jury which convicted Davis here yesterday asked Judge Walden to pro- nounce the youth's punishment. Mem- bers could not agree on a recommenda- tion. Prosecutors had asked that Davis be sentenced to death. Judge Walden indicated he would an- nounce his decision in a few days. Davis, Texas Panhandle character, and his brother, D. I. Davis, were ac- cused of killing Deputy Sheriff Keirsey and wounding Under Sheriff Vernon Cason several weeks ago at Wirt, Okla., when the officers sought to question them concerning a stolen car. They fled to Wiehita, where D. I. Davis was shot to death in a gun fight with officers. Colquitt escaped, but later was apprehended near Amarillo, Tex.

SANTIAGO, Chile, January 5.—Sir Eric Drummond, secretary-general of the League of Nations, told correspond- ents yesterday that rumors of the possi- bility of war in Europe fell in the class of pure myth. He said he had found far more talk In South America of some reported im- pending strife in Europe than he had | ever heard in that continent itself. Not | a single responsible man in Eurppean governmen cireles has seriously thought of war, he asserted. While in Chile Sir Eric has been re- ceived as a foreign ambassador instead of the League's secretary-general, since the Chilean government feels cool to- ward the international organization, but he was cordially received, never- theless, | CHURCHMEN WATCH RAID | ON GIANT ALCOHOL PLANT!

He said this can be changed by revolutionary methods of production. Two systems of growing cotton for the new industry have been considered, to sow as hay and some grains are planted, or to drill rows closely together. Changes Are Expected. ‘The effects of these two new methods are expected on the strength of ex- perimental evidence to be a smaller plant, relatively leas stalk and more ruit, probably shorter fiber and a shortened maturing season. Cotton thus raised, the professor said, “would require no cultivation and since picking would be eliminated, it could easily be harvested with a mowing m: chine, as has already been done in t experiments performed on plants that were grown, Tows. owever, in the customary Disj posal of the seed is one problem yet to be solved.
