PERFECTING | NEW HOUSE UNIT Snell Reorganizing Forces With View to Elections Two Years Hence. By the Associated Press. A movement is under way to reor- | ganize the House Republicans into a| compact and forceful unit under Repre- sentative Snell of New York. Although their membership was cut down from 211 in the present House to 117 in the next, Republican party lead- ers already are surveying their remain- ing forces with a view to putting the best qualiied men in the most im- portant positions when the new Con- gress comes in. “Cheir purpose is to have topnotch! men as ranking members of committees in order that, should they recapture the House two years hence, they will be in s fortitfied position when they take over the legislative groups. Despite the overwhelming Democratic majority of 313 Democrats in the next House, the Republicans even now are eiter organized for the new session m;:p their Spvents. £S : resentative Snell has no opposi- tion at present for the leadership which he won at the beginning of this Con- gress from former Representative Til- son of Connecticut. While there was some talk that Representative-elect Wadsworth of New York, a former | Senator, might be put forward as an opponent to Snell, Wadsworth stopped it by writing Snell that he would back his organization. Meanwhile, the Democrats are becom- ing more divided on their organization plans for the new House because of the difference of opinion over who shall succeed Speaker Garner when he be- comes Vice President on March 4. Whoever is selected Speaker by the Democrats will have to construct his organization_from scratch, while Snell, aided by Representative Darrow of Pennsylvania, may have already .whip- ped his minority into shape. Darrow is having a survey made of the records of his colleagues to ascer- tain their qualifications for key com- mittee posts, 23 of which are ranking on committees. He said that in order to perfect the organization, he prefers to throw overboard the seniority rule, as the Republicans have done more fre- quently than the Democrats. A Republican caucus probably will be held about March 1 to work out the details of the new set-up. Two im- t posts—that of assistant leader, ld by Representative Michener of Echlgfln. and the whip, occupied by Representative Bachmann of West Vir- ginia, also are to be filled then. Both Michener and Bachmann were defeated in the November elections. Some of the Republican leaders who ‘will not be in the next House and who are ranking members on powerful com- mittees are Wood of Indiana, Appro- g(flm’.lom: Hawley of Oregon, Ways and eans; Purnell of Indiana, Rules; Haugen of Iowa, Agriculture; Johnson of South Dakota, Veterans; Dyer of Missouri, Judiciary; Colton of Utah, Public and Sanders of New York, Post Office.

He walked slowly out onto the bridge and as he reached the middle climbed the high railing and jumped into the icy waters. The only clue to his identity was a letter in the overcoat His name and addrecs had been torn from the letter, which demanded payment of an overdue account.

ROME.—The conviction that Italian women should not try to compete in the more strenuous athleiics with the “un- graceful but better suited” women of the Anglo-Saxon race, was expressed by Prof. Umberto Gabbi, director of the medicAl clinic of the University of Parma. By doing so they would risk losing their modesty, figure, and adaptabili- ties for bringing healthy children into the world, he warns. In fact, he adds, they would impertl the future of the nation by placing difficulties in the way of Mussolini plans for a physically sound race The subject has been one of debate since the National Olympic Commiteee. headed by Leandro Arpinati, under- secretary of the interior, threw aside its former objections and acopted a defi- nite program of women's athletic train- m‘fmmn descriptions of Anglo-Saxon women, contained in a recent article in the Duce's Milan newspaper II Pipolo d'Ttalla, takes advantage of literary license to convey the impression that their feet, hands and general aspect are not in keeping with Italian ideas of beauty. “They have little grace or delicacy of form,” he says. “They are often thick of neck and have Herculean arteries, peninsular hands and terri- torial feet. Family life attracts them but lightly and they are not greatly concerned with modesty.” On the other hand, he says, Italian women “are delicate of muscle and sen- iment " re not built, morally or physi- te in the more with Nordic | [ ITALIAN PHYSICIAN DOUBTS GOOD OF WOMEN'S GAMES Director of Medical Clinic at Parma Femininity. league, Police Capt. Cherles Maher, used a “stool pigeon” in an attempt to spy upon him in Portland. It was also alleged the policemen shrouded their movements in secrecy; excluded the Mooney defense and press represntatives on one occasion during the questioning; endeavored to elicit untrue answers from Callicotte and intercepted his mail. Tom Mooney and Warren K. Billings were convicted of -the bombing and are serving life sentences. The Callicotte statement admitted he first sent his “confession” in fiction form to an Eastern publication, but con- | tended it was the truth, with the ex- ception of some substitution of names. To Goff’s challenges that the death- laden suit case was not placed in the exact spot where Callicotte sai® he put it and that Callicotte would have had to walk through a large American flag in the parade in order to cross the street with the suit case, as he said he did, the mountaineer reiterated his previous statements.
