Gen. John L. Clem, “dummer boy of Chickamauga,” who joined the Union Army before he was 11 years old and fought through the Civil War, was buried with full military honors this morning in Arlington National Cemetery. Gen. Clem, one of the most ro- mantic figures in American military annals, died last week at San Antonio, ‘Tex. Funeral services were held at 10:30 a.m. in St. Matthew’s Catholic Church, Rhode Island and Connecticut ave- nues. Members of the Grand Army of the Republic, the American Legion and other veterans’ organizations par- ticipated. Gen. Clem was a member of George Washington Post, No. 1, American Legion, here. Honorary pallbearers were Assist- ant Secretary of State R. Walton Moore, Maj. Gens. Henry G. Sharp and Merritte W. Ireland, both re- tired; Brig. Gens. Augustus B. War- field and A. Owen Seaman, assistants to the quartermaster general; Brig. Gen. David L. Brainard, retired, and the following members of the G. A. R.; Comdrs. John Line, William Dor- sey, John Ryan and Charles Fox. Lincoln (Continued From Pirst Pfige) act of Congress unconstitutionai by a change in the emoluments of the court, and so members of Congress who made the change would be in- eligible for appointment. Among the men mentioned as pos- sible successors of Van Devanter were Felix Frankfurter, professor at Har- vard Law School; James M. Landis, who served as head of the Securitles and Exchange Commission; Robert H. Jackson, Assistant Attorney General, and Donald Richberg, formerly head of the N. R. A. It was pointed out, however, that Van Devanter hailed from the West and that the President might feel it incumbent upon him to pick a Westerner, or possibly & man from the South, instead of from the North or East. Ashurst Issues Statement. After the committee had voted and adjourned, Senator Ashurst issued the following statement: “‘Moderation, forebearance and re- straint are the virtues of victory, whilst patience and fortitude are the virtues of disaster. Almost any Amer- ican citizen easily endures and quickly forgets disaster, but it requires char- acter and noblesse oblige to endure victory. “I hope to endure victory with be- coming humility. “Destiny distributes triumph and defeat with charming nonchalance. Whether she awards victory or pre- scribes a defeat is unimportant to the individual, but it is of very great importance how the individual re- ceives and carries that which des- tiny distributes to him.” Dickinson Condition Satisfactory. Lester J. Dickinson, former Senator from Iowa, was reported in a “satis- facory” condition today at George Washington Hospital, where he un- derwent a major operation last night. Hospital attaches said that Dickinson, EUGENE F. SMITH, 63, STAR EMPLOYE, DIES Linotype Operator Was Former President of Typographical Union. Eugene F. Smith, 63, linotype op- erator on The Star and three times president of Columbia Typographical Union No. 101, died last night of a heart attack at his home, 1432 North Carolina avenue northeast. Employed by The Star since Feb- ruary, 1924, Mr. Smith served his first term as president of the union from June, 1914, to June, 1915. His two other terms ran from June, 1924, to June, 1926. He was a veteran of the Spanish- American War, serving in that con- flict with the old Morton Cadets, which became Company G, District | Volunteers, and was a member of the Harden Camp, United Spanish War Veterans. A native of Georgia, Mr. Smith had been a Washington resi- dent the last 40 years and worked at the Government Printing Office prior to working for The Star. Surviving are his widow, Mrs. Kath- erine Smith, and a son, Oliver Smith, this city; two brothers, Edward Smith, Thomaston, Ga., and Paul Smith, At- For Reference ASK YOUR MAY 18, 1937. lanta; two sisters, Miss Effie Smith and Mrs, George Baker, both of Tip- ton, Ga., and a grandson.

Bill (Continued From Pirst Page.) appropriation bill as it came from the House which increases taxes, it might be able, from a parliamentary stand- point, to amend such a provision with additional taxes. The entire discussion of the city’s financial outlook was merely tenta- tive and preliminary at today's meet- ing, however. A subcommittee of the House Dis- trict Committee has been at work for several weeks on a tax program to meet the impending deficit. Until some time next week, the Sen- ate subcommittee will continue to hear local efficials and civic organizations before attempting to reach any deci~ sions. Senator Thomas said that the views of civic organizations will be in- vited on any tax proposals that may come up before the subcommittee com- pletes its hearings. After the Commissioners and Dis- trict Auditor D. J. Donovan had pre- sened & general picture of the situa- 5% HoME tion, the subcommittee heard a few department heads on detailed itms and then recessed until 10 am. to- morrow. COURT REJECTS PLEA OF UTILITY COMPANY Firm Sought Delay for Appeal in P. W. A. Municipal Power Case. The United States Court of Appeals today refused to grant a request by two power compenies for a 30-day extension of time allowed them to apply to the Supreme Court for a review of the decision by the Court of Appeals a week ago yesterday that the compenies had no right to chal- lenge P. W. A. financing of munic- ipal power developments. As a result of this ruling the two concerns, the Alabama Power Co. and the Iowa City Light & Power Co., must file their petition for a writ of | certiorari with the Supreme Court by May 27, when the usual 15-day period allowed for such petitions ex- | pires. Newton D. Baker, former Secretary of War and chief counsel for the com- panies, and other attorneys had asked for the 30-day stay on the grounds that they could not prepare a peti- LoaNs 5% District of Columbia, Nearby Maryland and Virginia 3 to 15 Years tion in less time. They alluded to the national imporfance of the case and called attention to the fact that more than 40 similar suits are pending here. ‘The request for the extension was opposed by the Government, which contended that a 30-day postpone= ment of filing the petition would re- sult in & five-month delay in consid- eration of the matter by the Supreme Court because of the approaching Summer recess. W. W.CHAMBER 0ne of the LARGEST NDERTAKERS E N THE WORLD PARLORS FOR BETTER SERVICE vote of 7 to 2 or more was defeated, 12 to 6.

Senator McGill moved to strike out all of the oill except that part.which pertained to the Supreme Court.
