The com posite farm credits measure formally , passed by tho house and senate In the closing hours of the session has been signed by President Harding. ' Last Day of Congress WASHINGTON, Mar. 6. The coun try today faced the now-unaccustomed prospect of nine months without a session of congresB. The CTth con gress had passed Into history and In cidentally with its four sessions, sot a new record in the extent of time actually spent in the legislative halls. The exodus of members and former members of the senate and house who toiled through tho sessions was in full swing today. Sine Die adjournment came yester day at noon in the senate and that of the bouse six minutes later after a brief final session conspicuously lack ing In thrills of pre-adjournment hours of some other congresses. The closing in the bouse had the usual colorful qualities of song and sentimental formalities, with a sec tion of the marine band on hand to fill out the program. Songs of an im promptu quartet of members warmed the whole house and most of the spec tators In tho crowded galleries to a lusty swelling of the chorus. On the business side of the program wbllo President Harding signed a total of 99 bills, Including the farm credits bill, during tho closing hours, 55 of these receiving the signature after his arrival at the capltol, about half an hour before adjournment, lit tle was accomplished by either senate or house on the last day. After hear ing "swan song" speeches by Senators Frellnghuysen, republican. New Jer sey, and Sutherland, republican, west Virginia and a tribute to Senator Wil liams, democrat. Mississippi, by bis colleague, Senator Harrison, Missis sippi, the senate tried vainly to pass a few minor bills. It ran into a fifteen minute filibuster by Senator Dial, democrat. South Carolina, which was terminated by the adjournment gavel. Included in tho committee reports submitted just before tho close of con gress was that of the senate commit tee, headed by Senator LaFollette, re publican, Wisconsin, on Its investiga tion of the oil industry. A number of other Inquiries will be prosecuted dur ing the recess, the senate alone hav ing ordered investigation into the ad ministration of the veterans' bureau afiairs, the gold and silver industry, naval oil land lenses, .reforestation, re-organization of govornment depart ments, the Great Lakes-Gulf Water way project and readjustment of sen ate omploycs' salaries.

The resolution of Senator Smith, democrat. South Carolina to appropri ate $10,000,000 for tho purchaso of nitrates of calcium arsenate to aid southern cotton producers. Tho constitutional amendment pro posal of Senator Norrls, republican. Nebraska, to advance the convening Dirt Farmer Confirmed WASHINGTON, Mar. 5. Presi dent Harding today gave recess ap pointments to Elmer S. Landes of Ohio, republican, and Morton L. Corey of Nebraska, democrat, as members of the farm loan board. It was made known also that Mr. Harding had decided not to withhold longer the commission of Milo D. Campbell of Michigan as the "dirt" farmer of the reserve board. Al though confirmed several weeks ago the president had refrained from Blgning his commission pending a senate decision on the McNary nom ination. Join Farm Bureau TOLD HOW HALE WAS TAKEN (Continued from page one.) call him into court, and the sick man then expressed a determination to appear. The efforts of the court to have the two sides reach an agreement on the taking of Hale's testimony were un availing. The jury was excluded from most of the morning session. Statu C'oso Outlined. Assistant Attorney General Lilje qvlst in his opening statement to tho Jury for the prosecution, said the state expected to show: That Dr. Jouett P. Bray was pres ent at the "hanging." by tho positive identification of Hale, who saw his face, illuminated by a flashlight ns he (Bray) bent over him; that chiro practic treatment was administered to Hale, after ho had swooned, from tho ordeal alleged to have been in flirted upon him by the masked and robed men, and that Hale recognized tho southern drawl of" Defendant Bray and his gencrul shape and ac tions. That tho state expected to show that J. F. Hittson was preset, from Hale's identification of his figure and voice, the fact that he will testify member of the party called him "Chief." and partially from an auto mobile. Alibis Manufactured. The connection of Howard A. Hill, the third of tho defendants, with the hanging episode, the state said it ex pected to prove by his own admission in a lodge room,ut which lie was alleged to have declared "ho knew who hung Hale," that he himself had burned the rope, and that alibis for those present had been prepared a week in advance, and that the names of those furnishing the alibis were given. The state .wild It would cull witnesses to prove these allegations, und thnt it would be shown tho hang ing and alibis wees worked out with detail. The stole attorney declared it would probe the source of tho robes and masks used in the affair, and their disposition afterwards. By incidents occurring at the "hanging" the stato held it would link nt least three,. "John Doe's" who by actions and statements before, during and afterwards were Involved. In a plain and uninipassioncd ad dress the assistnnt attorney general outlined the state's case, and review ed tho incidents of tho night of March 17th lust, from tho time Hale was lured from his home by a phone call, until be was returned to bis homo in this city. He read the in dictment, charging the three defend ants und 16 John Does with riut. as sault and extortion. Defense Presents Cose. Attorney Walter Wlnstow made the opening argument for the de fense and said the defense expected to show: By numerous witnesses that 1 he defendants were not present at the scene of the hanging, and constitut ing complete alibis. That they .would attack the credi bility of Hale by "as many witnesses as they would be allowed to call." That it would be proven that Hale's record for veracity was bud. and that he had told different stories of, the affair. And that an effort would be made to Impeach Stale's testimony. . !

SECOND TRIAL PLEASES MRS. A. GREENSLADE Portland Lady Declares Tanlac Overcame Indiges tion, Nervousness and Run Down Condition, Just As It Did in a Previous Case. 'I have always found the Tanlac treatment to be Just what 1 needed as a tonic, und 1 can't speak too highly in its praise," stated Mrs. Agnes lireenslade. 0201 94lh St., 8- E Portland. Ore., a few days ago. "I contracted a severe cold nbout Christmas time and ever since then, until I got Tanlac, I suffered from stomach trouble and was in a badly iun-down condition. 1 had a very poor appetite, and what little 1 ate gave me indigestion and' caused dull pains in the pit of my stomach which distressed me for hours. I was also extremely nervous, and had so little rtrength and energy that it was all 1 could do to attend to my housework. "I; had taken Tanlac before with such splendid results that I decided to use it ngaln. After completing bottles this time, I have a splendid appetite, and the stomach and ner vous trouble has completely disap. peared- That tired, run-down feel ing is a thing of tho past, and I can do my housework with ease. In lact, I am feeling just fine, and gladly recommend Tanlac." Mrs. Cireenslade'B trouble was re lieved by Tanlnc simply because it toned h-r vital organs- and enabled her to digest her food properly. Se vere colds and ijiOrippu almost in variably leave the body in a weaken ed condition, which, if too long no' glecied, is apt to develop into more serious afflictions. Tanlac Is found to be ttho direct remedy fn all such castr, for there is not a single por tion of tho body that is not bene fitted by its helpful action. Tanlac begins its work by stimulating the di gestive and assimilative organs, .thereby enriching the blood and in vigorating the entire system, if enables the weak, disordered filomach'" to thoroughly digest its food and coif- vert it into nourishment for lilood,,- bono and muscle. Tanlac is for sale by all good drug gists. Over 35 million bottles sold. Adv. nutter . PORTLAND, Ore., Mar. 5.
