MAY FIGHT REQUEST FOR AUTOS
Economists of the House Likely to
Oppose Secretary Wilson's Desire.
When the economists of the House of
Representatives learned today that Sec
retary Wilson of the Department of
Labor had asked the appropriations
committee for three automobiles, in
cluding a 15 000 car for his personal
us1', the hammer and tongs began fly
ing and it is evident that if the request
in approved by the committee there
will be the usual display of anti-gaso
line sentiment in the debates on the
floor of the House. The economy squad
looks to Representative Cox of Indiana,
who has always been an antl*motor car
member, to lead the tight.
The request from the Department of
( t?.oi includes the t.'.noo car men
tioned. also a $-.50o ear and a $1,500
truck. The ordinary course Ik to get
. contingent fuiid for any department
anting motor cars, and th'.p is not
subject to a point of order. It i* be
lieved that the appropriations eommit
tee intends to specify each automobile
for-the Department of l^ibor as a sepa
rate item and in that event the econ
omy squad will have three separate
t trgets for their points of order.

Blair Lee Suggests Name to
President, So Maryland Anti
Saloon League Head Says.
That Andrew J. ("Cy") Cummings of
Chevy Chase, Md.. a member of the "ast
Maryland legislature and well known in
Washington, has been recommended bv
State Senator Blair Lee to the President
as a member of the District excise board
was the claim made yesterday in Balti
more by W. H. Anderson of the Maryland
Anti-Saloon League.
Senator Lee's alleged indorsement of
Mr. Cummings was made the basis of an
attack by Mr. Anderson, who claimed
that such a recommendation was an af
front to the temperance people of Mary
land Senator Lee Is a candidate for
United States senator, and is now in the
midst of an active campaign.
There is no vacancy on the excise
board at present to which Mr. Cummings
could be appointed by the President.
Senator Lee said this morning that he
had no comment to make on Mr. Ander
son's statement. Mr. Cummings said that
it was so p ainly a political attack on
Senator Lee that he thought he had bet
ter say nothing.
Anderson Attacks Cummings.
In his statement Mr. Anderson told of
sending an attorney tp Washington to
confirm a rumor that Mr. Cummings had
been indorsed, and adds that the report
was verlhed and corroborated at the
White House.
"It is ..ot necessary to say much about
Mr. Cummings, who is commonly known
as 'Cy' Cummings." said Mr. Anderson, j
"By waiting for his chance, he turned '
the trie which finally defeated the state- !
wide local option bill last time, after
; pretending to be for it for two preced- i
| lng sessions when his vote was not need- I
I ed. He trains with the liquor crowd. He '
is just a practical saloon politic.an of!
i the cheaper sort?no better, no worse.
The gross impropriety of Indorsing such '
a man to administer the new excise law, '
which is the most stringent governing
any big city In the country, is apparent
to everybody who knows him.
"But. most serious of all. we charge
that Senator Lee has run the risk of
putting the President in bad with the
temperance people of the whole coun
| try in thus indorsing for appointment
a man whom he himself was afraid to
try to carry through on the legislative
ticket in Montgomery county because
of his known liquor and other connec
| tions. We believe that the President
lis endeavoring to do the fair and right
thing and serve the best interests of I
I the public. He cannot personally know ;
all applications, but must rely upon the !
advice of men in the various states
whom he has a right to trust. The in- I
dorsement of such a man as Mr. Cum- i
mings for such a position, merely in'
order to get rid of him as a local po- !
l.tical millstone. Is an Inexcusabler
breach of good-faith on the part of!
senator Lee as a supposed friend of the
i-'resident.

Consolation
By WALT MASON
The heat that makes us gasp and shrivel, and hand out com
ments most uncivil, keeps corn and beans alive; around in sweat
a fellow sloshes, forgetting that the Hubbard
squashes need heat to make them thrive. We all
rear up and rant together, and roast the bLnk
blanked, ding-donged weather, and storm arouni
like loons; and yet this heat, which seldom va
ries, is helpful to the huckleberries and also to
the prunes. In arctic realms sun rays don't siz
zle, so agriculture is a fizzle, there is no corn or
wheat; the natives wish the sun were blazing f01
they are tired of always raising cheap polar
bears and sleet. Then let us. wh'le profusely
sweating, be in no danger of forgetting what's
needed by the peas, the egg plant, with its hue
of umber, the onion and the proud cucumber, and other things like
these. And when hot weather makes you suffer, don't be a mourn
ful whining duffer?it's foolishness to chafe; just face the issue brave
ly, stoutty, and dance and sing, and say devoutly, 'Thank God, the
prune crop's safe!"

Health Officials Say Much of Typhoid
Fever Here Is Contracted
Outside District.
That much of the typhoid fever prevail
ing In the District of Columbia at the
present time was contracttd outside the
Dlstrct is the belief of officials of the lo
cal health department.
In a statement. Issued today, the depart
ment urges citizens who go away on va
cations to guard against the use of pol
luted water and infected milk and avoid
places where flies are tolerated.
"Water which is clear and sparkling is
by no means always pure," states the re
port. "Water from shallow wells situated
near outhouses or stables is frequently
polluted. Lakes and streams into which
sewage flows are quite liable to be con
taminated, and, therefore. It is safe, when
visiting In the country or at the seashore,
to use boiled water for drinkng purposes.
Care About Bathing Places.
"Another source of danger is bathing in
lakes or streams near the outlets of sew
ers. The milk supply, too, another source
of danger, should receive careful atten
tion. Find out where the milk comes
from. If fit s clean and fresh, and If the
containers are clean.
"If any doubt exists as to the sanitary
qualities of milk It is a wise precaution
to pasteurise It beforr using. Flies, as
has often been remarked, are another
source of danger, for when flies are In evi
dence filth abounds. Procure protection
from this source of contagion with
screens, fly traps, poisons and sticky
tapes or papers. These are safety de
vices and good things to invest in when
contemplating a visit to the summer re
sorts or to the country."

FAIL TO GET TOGETHER
OVER VIRGINIA DEBT
Commissioners Strive Vainly to
Beach Agreement on Amount
Fixed by Supreme Court.
Commissioners representing Virginia
and West Virginia in the controversy
over the amount of the old state debt of
the original state of Virginia which West
Virginia should pay. met again in Joint
session today, after striving vainly all
day yesterday to reach an agreement.
The meetings are being held at the New
Wi'lard Hotel.
The Virginia commissioners submitted
a proposal that West Virginia pay the
principal of $7,1*2,t'07, fixed tentatively
by the Supreme Court, in 1910. with in
terest amounting to about $14,000,000.
The West Virginia representatives did
not agree to this suggestion, but proposed
instead that the entire controversy be re
opened by subcommittees representing
both states.
The Virginia commissioners took the
position that it could not consider such a
proposal, because the principal of the
debt had already been fixed by the Su
preme Court. No way of getting the two
commissions together had been sug
gested when an adjournment was taken
late last night.
It was considered prcbable that the dis
pute will have to be taken before the Su
preme Court again, since there seemed to
be little likelihood of the two states com
ing to an agreement. It has been decided,
however, that the two commissions dis
cuss the question thoroughly in order to
attempt to discover some possible basis
of agreement.
