should be "amended by insertion

In rebuttal. Senator -Harrison

it is more noble to be fat than
lean." !
Eloquence Displayed.
Supporting the negative with all

WASHINGTON. Feb. 3. Mem

tonight as guests of the National
The physical attributes of the
affirmative team indicated they
might have been picked to support
the heavyweight challenge.
Among those in audience who
gave every indication , of reapms
profit as well as enjoyment from
the erudite discussion which took
place in a local theater, were the
French, Japanese and Belgian
ambassadors; Lady Geddes, wife
of the British ambassador: Secre
tary of State and Mrs. Colby and
General Pershing.
The audience constituted the
jury and so impressively did Spea
ker Gillette of the house, whe
presided, caution the jurors to at
tain a mental state of "complete
Impartiality," in deciding "mo
mentous issues" that the debate
was adjudged a draw and the
question declared "still in doubt."
HMory Is Itecalled.

Representative Tincher waded in

of discussing the issue in i he pres
ence of admixed audience. He
admitted, however, ihat he was
"well qualif ed to speak," recall
ing "distinct recollection of when
I was exhibited in a cradle as a
fine, fat boy.'
Secretary Colby Itecitc.
Only more -time than the allot
ted ten minutes was necessary, he
said, to permit a "complete dem
onstration of the fact that fat men
rule the world." W.nding up the
debate. Senator Ashurst declared:
"Call the roll of mighty men en
riching the annals of human des
tiny and we find that those who
have blessed mankind the most
have been thin. . Alexander and
Caesar were thin; Ixrd Nelson
was but a shadow. The Duke of
Wellington was but a thin edge.
Lincoln just had ofl enough to
keep h:s joints from creaking. Mc
Adoo, as d'rector general of rail
roads, never carried exce3 bag-
eage. IT Woodrow Wilson had
ben a fat man. he never could
have impressed his fourteen points
upon the world."
The distinguished audience pro
nounced its approval of the show
by an unaignified burst of an-
plause.
Prior to the debate. Secretary
Colby gave a recital on of Gray's
"Elegy in a Churchyard."

It would cause the election of an
inferior type of men. Hume de
clared that Judge Gatens and
Morrow, elected under the pres
ent system, never had legal prac
tice prior to their election and
that Judges Tazwell and Tucker
had only a limited practice. He
referred to Judge Gatens as
"pussyfooting" in the campaign
in which' Frank Grant ran against
him, and said the system provided
in his bill would prevent the
Judges manipulating to give their
opposition and win the election
in that manner.
The vote on this bill was:
For Farrell. Gill, Lee, Lynn,
North. Hosford. Hume. Joseph.
Against Moser. Hanks. Staples.
Kubli. Gordon. Hindman. McDon

On the biH requiring court
terms every month Hume ex
plained that the judges would not
be deprived ot their vacations,
but; that they would alternate
them. "My experience last sum
mer." he said, "showed me that
legislation was necessary to make
tne judges work."
