TWhether it lg worthy of all the con- sideration that has been given to it, the awarding by Secretary Daniels of a distinguished service medal to his brother-in-iaw because he was com- mander of a vessel that was sunk in the war zone has been referred to freely in connection with the protests that have been made regarding the Qetermination of those who should re- ceive naval decotations. In this commection Admiral Knight, who headed the naval award board, gave interesting testimony before the wenate committee imvestigating the awards which furthér indicates the favoritism that was displayed by the secretaty in the action taken. There Admiral Knight suppotts the conten- tion of Admiral Sims who made the first_protests to the effect that com- manders who lose their ships should mot be rewarded for it, and in -this case, where the recommendation of the board for a naval cross was dis- 5 THE INFLUENZA.

(Special to The Bulietin) D. C., Jan. 26—The rive ‘harbors bill was so pared down in process of construction that it not only lost its old familiar name of, “pork barrel bill” but even when some one suggested spare-rib bill, that too was Tejected as being by far 00 fat and juicy to meet the new situation. “Then some ode inquired how the bill came to be cut to thé bone, That's just it, shouted another man. Is cut to the shin-bone, and now the shin-bone is_the name likely to cling to it, unless the semyte comes to the rescue with additional and new material. 7 The public buildings bill fared no better at the hand of its committee. After having once declared for a sub- stantial bill the committes reversed itselt on the nd of economy, and declared no building bill will be reported this session.

The department asked for something like forty million dollars, Batcit i6 undeiitoon the committes has already lopped off something like four or five million with more yet to come. 1t is not that many of the pro- posed mmeasures aré unworthy, but it is because expenses must beé reduced far below war time expenditures fn de- partments. it tavotis~ i< to be kept from becorning prohibitive. * The cut-off the public build: will nip in the bud all the new buildings for Iow England.

Two presidential booms, stgaight from New England are now in fuli force ‘down on Pennsylvania avenue only a few blocks apart. They afe those of Geteral Wood and Governor Coolidge. The opening of these Wash- ington headquarters brings fo light a turn of the cards which shows thow easily a new deal is made. Harking back to the presidential campaign of 1816 it was Senator George H. Moses of New Hampshire, Who was in charge of the John W. Weeks head- quarters in Chicage. Louis H. Warn- er of Massachusetts wa sthen private secretary 10 Benator Weeks, Now the Wood headquarters here are under the personal direction - of Senator Moses and the Coolidge headquarters are -in charge of Louis Warner, just a few streets farther up the avehue. 1¢ ayone reminded of the old “saying” of politics and strange ‘ed-feliows?’ Both Mesés and Warner kndw per- sonally every public man worth knowing, so does Moses assistant, Peck. Both Moses and Warner are well versed in the political tactics of each other, havine heen on the inside of the same political battle, one « managed aud .. e as private secretary of » ~*--ng and popular New England candidate, The Cooliage acadquarters comprise six large rooms in the Hotel Raleigh Pennsylvania Avenue ‘down:which marches the great inaus- ural parade every four —years: the Wood headquarters are a few-blocks nearer the White House, in the Hotell Willard, within a_stone throw of the treasury. Both the Wood and the! Coolidge headquarters.are now in run- ning order and ready for business. Democrats here did not nibble very lively at the Hoover boom started so briskly this week. Newspaper men were thicker than grasshoppers In August, sounding out senators and} representatives along that line. But there was fot much doing. Mr. Hoover's intense internationalism,| doubt as to his place of legal rrsi-{ dence, his political _ affiliations and evi- | whether or ot the White House s sponsor for his candidacy was dent in every instane. There is Indieation of a speed-up in appropriation. bills andf about every- thing except -the treaty. There is no new light on that.

But the vote will be close in any case, and Hitcheock will continue to,direct the treaty actfon on his side of the cham- ber, whether flobd leader or not but 10ss of leadership woull unquestion- ably .lessen his power in the fight. Shall we eat all the lobsters now, or shall we pass laws to protect the industry of New England and give the next generation a chance to taste a “hot bojled ioh”—congress is consid- ering the question and while Maine, is advocating stringent laws to protect the future, Massachusetts is fighting for a chance to eat 'um now. Congressman White of Maine has a bill pending to regulate the transpor- tation and import of so-called short lobsters, making it a federal offence to ship from state }o state under in- terstate commefce law. Fach state may fix its own legal size, but what is illegal in Main or Massachusetts cannot be shipy or transported through that state, it the White law is adopted. The department of com- | merce endorses the lobster-saving bill, U. S. Commissioner Smith giving much valtable information at the hearing before the fisheries commit- tee a few days ago. He state the bill is necessary to prevent ‘“flagrant abuses” and added that unless radical steps are quickly taken the iobster industry will die out. He referred to that possibility as a public misfortune. Maine congressmen appeared in favor of the measure while Lufkin and Tague of Masmsachusetts opposed it. Commissioner Smith referred to the enormous food and financial value of the lobster industry in the past, and ‘of its great value to New England, Maine alone furr2hng more thah one-half of the entire catch consum- ed in the United States, including im- ports.
