e ———————— CONGRESS EXPECTS T0 RECESS TODAY Indications Point fo Shelving Anti-Beer Bill Washington, Aus. as expected, barring unforseen de- telopments, to recess tonight for 30 days. Both the senate and house vhen they met today were ccnfront- ed with a number of miscellaneous TMatters. 24.—Congress That $48,500,000. The senate upon reconvening re- sumed debate on the anti-beer bill, while the house waited principally for renorts from conferees on difffferent bills. Among the looked for con- ference reports were the Shipping Poard deficiency bill of $48,500,000, and the agricultural credits measure, which was deadlocked last night. In addition the senate hoped to com- plete action on extending the dye em- bargo provision of he emergency 12riff to January 1 next and possibly to vote on extension of the emergency tarift itself to that date. Loans Troubling. Indications when the senate met today were that the ani-beer biil would be shelved until fall. The deadlock on the agricultural credits 21l however, was regarded with con- cern by leaders in both houses . be- cause of their desire for its immedi- 2'e passage. The chief difficulty was ir. house objection to a senate pro- vision authorizing the war finance ~poration to make export loans to uuropean associations, the house in- sisting that these should be made to Americans only. Senate and house leaders took a hand in the situation | late last night but with what result was not indicated. PLAN CO-DRDINATION OF RELIEF WORKERS European Council Talks With Hoover and Haskell Washington, Auz. 24—Plans for the co-ordination of children’s relief organizations interested in Russian re- iief with the American relief admin- istration were discussed at a meeting of the European relief council with Secretary Hoover and Col. Wm. M. Haskell, who is to have charge of feod distribution in Russia. The organizations were aaked by Tresident Harding to co-operate un der the relief administration in the work of fighting famine among the children of Russia in order that the interests of the people of this coun- try and Russia could best be served tarough centralized activity and to avoid the organization of unnecessary associations for the solicitation of funds. Col. Haskell said todav that he pianned to sail from New York for Tiverpool early next week and to proceed to Russia after a conference in England with Walter Lyman Brown, European director of the ad- ministration. The first Headquarters of the famine workers, Col. Haskell said, would be at Moscow, althouzh the center of food distribution might L» moved later. At the start, he declared, the ad riinistration intends to feed 1,000,000 Russian children, although this num- ber will be increased as facilities and sunplies are available. All the worl, he said. will be under the direction of Secretary Hoover and the New York headquarters of the adminis- tration. 14 Business Places Are Ruined in Hornell Firz Hornell, N.

It was learned yesterday that with- in a few days, since it has been known the two would arrive here this the vlay, “The Three Musketeers,” cral theatrical managers have sending telegrams asking appoint- aents the minute they arrive with 1 view of placing them in a play. While neither has signified a desire recently to return to the spoken ge, it was learned they had made : nown in the West that if they were offered a suitabls vehicle, they might consider appearing in it for a season in New York, later to return to Los Angeles and continue their work before the camera. One New York producer of light comedies is said to have embodied in his telegram an offer, as salary, that far outdoes any sum before offered to two stars in America. This pro- Aducer yesterday declined to comment »on the report, saying “some people em to know more about my busi- 1ess than I know.” The vast interest in these two photoplay stars that exists in New York, and throughout the country. for that matter, would cause any speaking stage venture which they might make at this time be watched eagerly. Miss Pickford before her entry into motion pictures was more or less widely in comedies and Mr. Fairban a juvenile leading man.
