Judiciary Committee Votes
Adversely on Nominee
for Cabinet Job.
RULES ARE BARRIER
Coolidge Summons Borah to
Make Final Plea, but Is
Told Confirmation
Is Impossible.
iAasotUted Pnaa Leaned Wli.)
WASHINGTON. Mar. 13. An
adverse report on the nomination
of Charlea B. Warren to be at
torney general waa ordered today
by the senate judiciary committee.
All of the democrats and sena
tors Borah of Idaho and Non-la of
Nebraska, republicans, voted today
against a favorable report.
The vote of Senator Borah was
' cast by proxy, the Idaho senator
being: at the White House, where
he had been summoned by Presi
dent Coolidge.
Despite the president's decision
to call some of the republican op
ponents of confirmation Into con
ference and make a personal ap
peal to them, many of the party
regulars saw little hope of favor
able action on the nomination,
which once has been rejected.
Senator Borah told Mr. Coolidge
frankly he saw no chance of con
firmation. The committee vote today fol
lows: For a favorable report: Cnm-
mln,, Iowa; Ernst, Kentucky:
Spencer, Missouri; Means, Colo
rado; Han-eld, Oklahoma, Deneen,
Illinois, and Olllett, Massachusetts
all republicans. Against a favor
able report: Borah, Idaho: Norrls,
Nebraska, republicans; Overman,
North Carolina: Reed, Missouri;
Ashurst. Arizona; -Walsh Mon
tana; Caraway, Arkansas: King,
Vtah, and Neely. West Virginia,
democrats.
Senator Overman previously had
voted for confirmation both In the
committee and in the senate.
The constitutional right of the
president to resubmit the nomina
tion was questioned by Senators
Reed and Walsh, and most of the
committee session, lasting an hour
and a half, was devoted to argu
ment on that point.
The question was not brought to
vote as the senators wanted addi
tional time to consider it.
Chairman Cummins took the po
sition that the president was fully
within his rights. -
Senator Walsh offered thi reso
lution: "Resolved, that In the opinion of
this committee:
"(1) The President of the United
States' Is without constitutional
right or authority to submit to the
senate a nomination for public of
fice theretofore at the same ses
sion rejected by the senate.
"(2) The rules of the senate as
fundamental principles of parlia
mentary law forbid the considera
tion by the senate of a nomination
so resubmitted.
"(3) It is incompatible with the
dignity of the senate to entertain
a nomination so sunmiitea,
wiih .n ..Iverae renort from the I
committee, opponent will

parliamentary whip hand during
the fight on the floor.
Senator Walsh will present the
report.
Further examination of authori
ties today led many senators to
the belief that the president could

Fallacy That Child Marriages

By Common Sense Investigation
NEW YORK, March 13. After
Investigation of the problem of
child marriages, the Russell Sago
foundation board in a report made
public today, says its study dis
proves the Idea that there Is some
thing Idyllic about such youth
ful unions.
The Investigators conclusions
are opposed to marriage at too
young an age. because of the
physical and mental immaturity
of the contracting children, or be
cause in the case of a girl child
married to an older man "neither
may ever know the meaning of
genuine comradeship In the mar
riage relation."
The foundation recently declar
ed that there are 700.000 persons
In the I'nlted States who were
married when under IS. The per-
rentage of marriages of girls la

Excellent progress is ' being
made on the new camp grounds
being erected In Edenbower by J.
F. Ewell and C. W. Hagen, recent
arrivals from Oklahoma. The
framework for the cabins has
been erected and they are now
being lathed ready for the appli

will be finished. The driveways
I are being graveled, stnrebuildings
laid out, and cement foundations
placed fer the community house
and auditorium. It la expected
that the camp will be ready for
opening about May 1.
The construction work has pro
gressed far enough that a person
can obtain a good idea of what
this attractive camp will look like
when completed.
Large tll j Is being placed along
the roadway to take care of the
flow in the drainage ditches, and
the present ditch will be filled In,
giving a level approach. There
will be three store buildings on
each side of the entrance, which
will extend for more than 100

back in an increasing curve to the

The deed conveying ' to

known as the Bellows tract,
was signed today by the
school board and by Mr. Bel-
lows and was placed on record
the district paying Mr. Bel-

lroperly. This land Is to be
the site of the new high school

the deed provides that the

cate any of tts land along the

ceedings to have a street dedl-
cated on the property of Mr.

vision being Included in the
deed as a protection to Mr.

sive paving forced upon him.
As the deed stands the school
district cannot dedicate

cannot petition for one on Mr.
Bellows property, although he
is not prohibited from opening
a street there when he de-
sires. As the school property

piece of flesh and a flagon of
wine" appears In the shorter bible

moat and a cake of raisins." The

John 8. 8harbaro, assistant pros
ecutor, also said Falman told him
that William D. Shepherd, foster
father and chief heir of McClln
tock'a 82,000,000 estate, visited the
school and took several sample
lessons. ,
During a lull tn the nueatlonlna-
Falman and John P. Ifarcnand,
formerly his agent and also ques
tioned, came to blow in a dispute
over a letter which they aald Shep
herd had written to the school ask-
lnformatlon regarding courses.
When questioned before the cor
oner s jury, both had admitted
there had been such a letter, bat 1
neither could remember what had
'become of It. Marchaad charged
Wmo v..-,..
become of It, which Famaa denies
and several blows were struck be
fore thev were parted. Tha letter
which Falman said Shepherd had
written in the fall of 1923 accord
ing to prosecutors, was destroyed
with other applications for infor
mation regarding courses.
According to Falman'a story, a
the state's attorney aald he told
it. Shepherd shortly afterward at
tended lectures on germs for about
a week, but never paid any tuition .
and never returned.
Shortly afterward, Falman aald,
he looked In an Incubator where a
supply of germ cultures waa kept .
and which waa accessible to stu
dents and found three tubes miss
ing, one of which he was sure con
tained typhus bscclll. The others
may have held the typhoid germs,
he said.
Prosecutors aald they expected
to summon Shepherd at once for
questioning in connection with Fair
man's story.

About three months ago a man,
whose nam Falman aald he did
not know, called at the school and
wanted to know about our "rec
ords." He later said, Falman added,
"that it I had something on file
that be wanted it would pay me
well, or something like that"
So the man searched tbe school
files without assistance from him.
Dr. Falman said. This man told
him he would bo well taken car
of if he turned the files over to
him, but he never saw the man
again. '
Shepherd at his suburban home
when informed over the telephone
of Falman's statements said: "It's
all a lie."
"I had never beard of the uni
versity before," Shepherd said.
