WASHINGTON, Nov. 20. A
veritable bombshell, with deluyed
fuse attached, tonight lay concealed
bvneuth tho surface of tho army
court martial trying Colonel Wll-
IIUIU ill ILCUUII.
Jts explosion mav. unless the fuse
In snipped off at tho war depart
ment or tlio White House, blow one
member of the court. liriKadier
General Kdward L. King, from his
neiii on the tribunal.
Presumably Major General Rob
ert I,. Jlowze, the president, was
tlio only member 4 of the court
aware of tho situation. He created
It by reporting to the war depart
ment that General King had used
the expression "damn rot" in court
while a witness was being exam
ined by the defense, and that the
remark had been overheard and
reported at the timo by Represen
tative Frank R. Reld, chief defense
counMol. Jn taking the action he
did. General Howze merely com
plied with the regulations laid down
In the court martial manual.
Tho manual says that "Im.prope.
words used by a member should bo
taken down in writing and any dis
orderly conduct reported to the
appointing authority." Whether
Secretary Davis will see fit to give
tho Howze report to 1'resldent
Coolldge has not been disclosed.,
but It is regarded as likely that he
will Inform Mr. Coolldge of the
incident before a decision finally
In made.
Meanwhile, on motion of Mr.
Reid' the court toduy ordered all
references to tho King episode
stricken from the trial record and
the general still holds his seat us a
member of that body.
The trial moved forward today
with the navy supplying four wit
nesses, who, under the guidunce of
Major Allen Gutlion, assistant trial
Judge advocate, testified in answer
to many of Colonel Mitchell's
charges of incompetence, neglect
and maladministration of the air
service. They were Commander H.
C. Richardson, aviation engineer
and pilot Of tho MC-3 when It at
tempted the trans-Atlantic flight in

chief pilot of the PN-9 No. 1 dur

AMAKILLO, Texas, Nov. 30.
The lower limine of the Texas legla
luturo will be called to meet In
apecini neHlon January 4. Speaker
Lee Kntlerwhlte of that body Bttid
here tonight upon his riturn from
Austin and Dallas.
AUSTIN, Texaa, Nov. 30. A rep
resentative of the Baltimore Sun,
who toduy obtained an exclusive
interview with Oovernor Miriam A.
Ferguson and her h unhand, James
B. Ferguson, quoted the former as
declaring that she would not call
a special session of the legislature
as demanded in a petition signed
by Bpeaker Lee Satterwhite and 00
of its members.
She added that she was not so
Ing to "throw myself to the wolves
who want to gather here and tear
me apart."
Investigation Expected
Official acts of tho Ferguson
administration, particularly the
awarding of road contracts will be
investigated If the special session
of the legislature is convened.
Should the legislature meet on their
own call they could only consider
impeachment proceedings against
state officials. ... .
"Let them assemble if they want
to" she Is quoted as having de
clared. "Lot them start something.
I'll still bo here when thoy finish."
She said she was a fighter.
The Sun will say that political
opponents of the Fergusons Jim
and Miriam are seeking "to un
horse the woman governor."
Ferguson denied, according to
the story, a report that he made
a "tacit" admission that he per
formed tho duties of the governor.
Ho said ho never made any such
admission, tacit or otherwise. "Now
please make that, clear," he said.
"Every newspaper in this state is
against the Fergusons. That's their
privilege. Now, you boys come from
all corners of the country. We're
asking for no favors. Just a square
deal."
We Appears Again
"There goes that 'we' again."
interposed Mrs. Ferguson. "Now
you want to watch out Jim."
"That's where they got me wrong;
again," he said. "I've been saying
that for years where Ma and I are
concerned. I just can't help it."
"Hasn't he got the right?" Ma
spoke up. "When I was on the
slump campaign I told the people I
hadn't a thing but common sense.
I'm not a statesman. How could I
be? I've been housewife for 30
years and nothing else. I told them
when I felt I needed advice I'd
ask for It from those who were
capable of giving it to me. They've
got to admit Jim knows politics.
I've asked for his advice and I've
taken Ills advice. And what are they
going to do about it?"
"Jim domlnutcs me?" she asked
with a world of humor in her eyes.
From cooking dinner to pardon
ing convicts, I'm his little willing
slave? Do I look It, Mr. Man?"
She does not. The Sun Interview,
which will be published tomorrow,
will say.
"Wolves' aro Defied
"I should coll a apecial 8ession,

my enemies, mind you, as much fts
Jim's in spite of all that mush
about : my being a frail, delicate
woman I should authorise the
state to pay the expenditures of
these wolves who want to gather
here and tear me apart. Throw my
self to theml Not on your life. I
know them too well. Born and bred
among them."
Mr. Ferguson was asked if for
mer Governor Oscar B. Colqult had
an active part in his own impeach
ment eight years ago. "Yes" and
he continued, "I was coaching on
tho sidelines. I walked out holding
'Ma's' hand and now they'd like
to see her walking out holding
mine."

SCHOOL BUDGET PASSES
AT SPECIAL ELECTION
INCREASE OVER SIX PEft CENT
IS ACCEPTED
y
Small Margins Mark Voting and
Approximately 400 Ilullob ore
Cost at City Hall
With approximately 400 votes
cast, the Eugene school district
budget with its increase over the
six per cent tax limitation, was ac
cepted, in an election held at the
city hall yesterday afternoon.
Both the budget and the Increase
question carried by small margins.
iQuestion No. 1, received 195 votes
for, and 188 against it. No. 2 re
ceived 193 for, and 180 against -It.
Question No.' 1 was "shall school
district No. 4, Lane county, Ore
gon, levy a special tax for the year
ending June 21, 1926, which ex
ceeds by more than six per cent
the special tax levied by the said
district for the preceding year, by
levying a tax of $198,889.44 for
tho present year?"
This question had been the sub
ject of considerable discussion at
all of the Parent-Teacher associa
tion meetings since It was proposed
by the board of education after
the budget committee had adopted
the budget with the increase.
Congestion of school room In a
growing city, need for additional
school buildings and more teachers
for the next year were given as
reasons. These reasons were more
emphasized In the last month when
basement rooms In at least three
buildings were utilized for class
work. An expected additional 200
children in the city with the new
year had caused members of th
board of education to look Into the
future for the welfare of all pu
pils. Question No. 2, -was on tho pas
sage of the budget itself, in the
following language: "Shall the
budget proposed and adopted by
the budget committee be adopted
by the legal voters of school dis
trict No. 4, Lane county, Oregon?
Following the closing of the vot
ing place in the main corridor of
the city hall, the members of the
board of education met in the of
fice of the city superintendent of
schools and received the result of
the balloting.
No further business was trans
acted, it was reported after the
session.

(By Tho Associated Press)
PHILADELPHIA. Nov. 30.
The anthracite operators today re
jected Governor Pinchot's propos-''
ais tor enumg tne naru coal strike.
In refusing hla plan, already ac
cepted as a basis of settlement by.
tne united M.ne workers, the
mine owners offered no counter
proposal, but drew the governor's
attention to a proposal made to
President John L. Lewis of the
miners' union two weeks ago and
rejected by the governor.
The action of the ouerators
leaves the situation virtually where
it was Derore the governor made
his offer and the strike enters its
fourth month tomorrow with the
anthracite supply dally growing
shorter.
"It Is Impossible for us to find
in your proposals," said the oper
ators' letter to the governor, "the
basis of a sound and lasting set
tlement and for the same reason
they cannot be considered as a
basis for conference and negotia
tion.
The letter, after pointing out
that, the governor's plan proposes
that prices Bhall not be Increased
and wages shall not be decreased
for a period of five years, states
that he is asking the operators "to
repeat tne Jacksonville mistake of
endeavoring to maintain high
prices to pay nigh wages through
the simple formula of writing
these terms into a contract."
"An arrangement Involving an
agreement -on prices is clearly il
legal," the operators said and add
ed v that "prices are controlled by
the the-law of supply and demand
and cannot be maintained at arti
ficial .levels by r arbitrary . agree
ments." 1
-The. operators r referring to. the
.limited "' check-off . suggested :i by
the governor characterized this
system of deducting dues from

nant, to reason and justice .and a
