PanDED PAYROLLS DUE |Gérd Athlete Who Will ‘Captain American Women’s Olympic Team ‘ COST OF ELECTIONS CONGRESSMEN INSIST Kanth f (Continued from First Page.) Wom absolutely nocessary for public fuse, and if it is not, he who votes oes a wrong tantamount to a crime Tam afraid of a man if he is careful About spending his own moncy and ‘Very reckless about spending the peo- Ble’s money.” From the thunderous applause which greeted these remarks, one would think the House members ‘Would summarily lynch any one gullty @f turning to personal and private ac- fount money appropriated for public Purposes. But some of these who so enthusiastically approved these senti- ments are among the number padding the Congressional payrolls with rela- fives and dummies. Continuing, Representative Sisson faid: “People throughout the coun- try now are too prone to believe that men in high office, men holding high oMcial positions, are dishonest. If this is carried too far it will overturn the Government, even if it is untrue, “I believe that I can truthfully aay hat for the several hundred men that Thave known besides those with whom I am ow serving, there is but one Man with whom I have served about whom I have any suspicion in respect to honesty and integrity, and I may be Wrong about him." At this juncture there appeared to some nervousness, as one member shouted, “Who is the gentleman look- sz: | at?’ ission explained that the man under suspicion was no longer a mem- r. Then, with the typical suave- ness of the politician, the Mfiuslssip- Pian continued: “As [ look into the faces of those men with whom I serve here every day, if I were called upon to put my hand upon a man who ts ishonest, who I think would steal di- rectly or indirectly from the public funds, then if I pat my hand on the shoulder of the wrong man, God was to strike me down like Ananias and Sapphira because I had lied, I would hate to put my hand out. “Everybody in the United States almost is prone to jump on Congress. | Everybody has a right to kick us and Say mean things about us, not only | individually, but as a body. Asa rule I think public officials are honest men. In any event, can we not ex- ercise the same presumption about a ™an in public office that the law requires us to exercise in respect to a man in private life? He is presumed honest until the contrary fs shown.

You will find that the peo- ple do not make very many mistakes im sending people to Congress, so far az honesty and integrity, are con- cerned.” But apparently Representative Sis- son was of another mind when he de- Hivered himself of the following re- marks when a resolution was up to have the public treasury bear the ex- pense of a deficit incurred by the House restaurant a few months ago: “The only trouble with the restau- Fant is that members of Congress de- mand too much for their money; it is losing money, and if you make mem- bers pay what they ought to pay this ‘would not be true,” said he. ‘So you ‘want to pass this resolution to pay the loss out of the peoples pocket— that is, from the Treasury, This is a Uttle thing, you say, but the real way to determine a man’s character is found more frequently by considering the little things that he does than the ig ones. “Oh, gentlemen, this is petty graft, If I were going to be a grafter I would start out with bigger things than grafting on the difference between the loss we suffer downstairs and ‘what we pay. Oh, gentlemen, I bee ENRIGHT ADMITS HE’S LIKE NAPOLEON Tells European Police How He Rose From Ranks, ’N Everything. Police Headquarters received yes- terday a cabfegram from Commis- sioner Enright outlining his efforts to establish an international con- gress of Police Chiefs, on which he has been engaged abroad. ‘The Com- missioner is in Rome. The message said he had invited the police heads of Huropean coun- tries to send representatives to a convention to be held in this city during the week of Sept. 11. Chiets of Mexican and Canadian cities have promised to be present. The long message told how the Commissioner had related, in his various addresses, his own experi- ence as a member of the Police De- partment, comparing his rise from the ranks to that of Napoleon. Afmong the cities included in the Enright itinerary are London, Paris, Rome, Vienna, Brussels and Berlin. of you do not do this petty thing. It is too cheap a thing for the House to be guilty of. Now, I realize that when you talk in the interest of the people, even about a little thing lke this, you do not get anywhere, The fellow in this case does the voting and enjoys the graft. If you do not think your salary is big enough tu feed you, vote to increase it and quit.” After taking this verbal castigation, the House passed the resolution.

PHILADNLPHIA, June 30. “Conservative jaxza" will be the popular motif in male wearing ap- parel for next year, according to the International Association of Clothing Designers, in annual con- vention here.
