ANTI-LYNCH BILL
FIGHT IS PRESSED
Opponents Now Are Prepar
ing for Attack on Gava
gan Measure.
bi the Associated Press.
Opponent* of anti-lynching legisla
tion, heartened by the refusal of the
House yesterday to debate the meas
ure offered by Representative Mitchell,
Democrat, of Illinois, are preparing for
an attack on the more drastic bill
introduced by Representative Qava
gan. Democrat, of New York.
Por the first time at this session,
filibustering tactics were Invoked in
the House when supporters of the
Gavagan bill joined with Southern op
ponents of any anti-lynching law to
throw the Mitchell bill into the dis
card.
Journal Read.
Critics of the Mitchell bill engaged
In such filibustering maneuvers as
forcing clerks to read the preceding
day’s lengthy journal oi House activi
ties.
On the roll-call vote that followed
members voted, 257 to 122, against
considering the Mitchell bill, which
had been approved by a majority of
the Judiciary Committee.
Next Monday the House is sched
uled to decide whether it will debate
the Gavagan bill cn Tuesday. Sup
porters of the Qavagah measure has
tened to declare that the action of the
House yesterday was not indicative of
its stand on anti-lynching legislation.
Declared Political Gesture.
"The House refused,” said Repre
sentative Pish, Republican, of New
York, one of the supporters of the
Gavagan measure, "to consider the
Mitchell bill because it does not rep
resent the views and wishes of the
colored people of America. It is con
sidered an emasculated anti-lynch
ing bill and merely a political ges
ture and camouflage.”
Opponent* of the Gavagan measure
meanwhile are mobilizing their forces
for a clear-cut test of their strength
next week.

Fine Furniture
—and do it quick”
R. G. McMahon, Vice President and General Manager
"I have just come to Washington, and I find this situation
at W. B. Moses fir Co. Last Fall, the former manager, in a
panic at notices of manufacturers' price increases to take
effect, bought thousands of dollars' worth of furniture; in
fact, overbought. Moses now have two warehouses actually
bulging with furniture.
"I'm going to turn $100,000 worth of this furniture into
cash as quickly as possible. I do not claim that I have
reduced it one-half. But I do say that I've marked it at
prices that should accomplish the desired result. As you
read the list below, remember that this is some of the
finest furniture made in America, much of it from Grand
Rapids, all of it MOSES' Furniture ... and that the name
'Moses' has stood for fine furniture in Washington
since 1861."
