SOUTHERN REPUBLICAN
ORGANIZATIONS SCORED
. .•
They Are Charged With Being More
Interested in Patronage Than Par
ty Elections.
Correspondent Greensboro News.
Washington, March 10.—The con
troversy between Representative
Wurzbagh, the only Republican mem
ber of the house from Texas; Chair
man Will R. Wood, of the Republi
can congressional committee, and
Representative Tilßon, of Connecti
cut, majority leader of the house, on
the one hand, and Republican organ
ization of that state on itie other,
has served to bring into the limelight
the dissatisfaction which has been
felt by the congressional committee
regarding the situation in several of
the southern states.
The charge is made by members -of
the committee that the Republican
stqte organizations in some of these
southern states are more interested
in handling the federal patronage
than they are in electing Republicans
in Congress.
The recent declaration' by Republi
can National Committeeman Creager
that because of the charges made by
Mr. Wurzbach in the House against
the state organization, the organiza
tion would seek to defeat Mr. Wurz
bafrh in the cpming campaign, aroused
Chairman Wood and Mr. Tilton, to
sharp criticism of Mr. Creager.
’ut looks to me that some investi
gation of conditions existing in the
southern states regarding the activi
ties of the state organizations should
be had,” said Chairman Wood today.
Such an investigation, it would ap
pear, should come from the Republi
can national committee. If any of
the members from the southern states
are failing t*> take advantage of op
portunities to advance the interest of
the Republican party through the
election of members of Congress, it
would seem the duty of the national
organization to look into the matter.
Members of the congressional com
mittee. whose duty it is to see that
the party has a majority, and as
large a majority as possible, in the
house, are roused pVer the matter.
The attention of Senator Bntier, of
Massachusetts, chairman of the Re
publican national committee, will be
called to the mntter, it is said. In
deed. already Senator Butler’s at
tention has been called to the sit
uation of Florida, Which Chairman
Wood regards as particularly bad.
Because of the recent large influx of
population. Florida is looked to by
members of the congressional com
mittee as the next southern state
which should be counted upon to send
oirt or more Republican representa
tives to Cohgress.
Chairman Wood admits that he is
dissntisfied with the Florida situa
tion. The charge has been made by
some of the Republicans of the state
that the old organization there is not
giving the full assistance needed to
elect at least one representative to
the house in the coming election.
It is obvious tlint if Republican
members of the house tverc elected or
a senator from one of the southern
states, the control of the patronage
or part of it would go from tbehands
T>f the state organization. That seems
to be the only explanation why there
should be a failure on the part of
the state organizations to do the ut
most to elect Republicans to Con
gress.
On the other hand, not only do the
state organizations—which are head
ed by the state chairmen and the Re
publican nationnl committeemen —
control the federal patronage, but
they also control the delegations to
the Republican national conventions.
This raised still another question—
the desire to control these delega
tions during the contests for the Re
publican nomination for President at
the national--convention.
It is not difficult to see that the
chairman of the Republican congres
sional committee and the Republican
national committee, because of these
various questions, might find them
selves in conflict over this matter of
disciplining members of the national
committee.

Mr. Hammer Attacks Capital Shady
< Shows.
Congressman William C. Hammer
wants to know why women dancers
appear in Washington theatres
“naked up to their waists,” says- a
story from the capital.
He demanded information from Po
lice Sergeant Rhoda Millikin, during
a hearing before a subcommittee of
the House District of Columbia eom
mitteee, oi\ the proposal to increase
the number of policemen in the capi
tal to nearly 100.
Sergeant Milliken told the North
Carolina Ko|gm that half naked wom
en are seen on Washington stages be
cause. there is “no law to stop it.
“Then.” demanded Hammer, “why
did you make arrests recently at the
Mutual Theatre?”
“Because,” answered the police
woman “there was indecent lan
gauge.”
Congressman Hammer questioned
the sergeant closely regarding the du
ties of policewomen and the methods
employed by them in making easCs.
“I gathered that one of your im
portant functions is the reviewing of
the theatrical productions which you
are unable to modify for lack of prop
er police regulations,” Representative
Hammer stated.
Representative Hammer then in
quired whether any arrests have been
made at the Mutual because women
'had appeared without tights? Sar
gent Milliken replied that there had
not but that on one occasion when
the question was raised a policewom
an went on the stake to make sure
that one of the dancers was wearing
tights when appearances from the
seat failed to definitely reveal this
fact.
A man went to have his photograph
taken.
“Mounted or otherwise?” asked the
photographer.
“Well, I’ll have it taken mounted,”
replied the man, "but I don’t know
what my wife will say; she’s never
seen uje on a horse before.”
Little boy to his father, excitedly:
“Say. Pa, Jones the grocer has got
a baby girl and there will be an awful

Embarrassing Moments
New York Daily Mirror.
New York Mirror.
The most embarrassing moment of
my life happened the other night as I
was coming from ' the movies. As I
reached the door of my house I saw a
lady coming out whom I thought was
my mother and I said to her, “Where
are you going?" To my embarrass
ment I discovered it was a friend of
the lady upstairs, and I didn’t even
know her.
During lunch hour I usually walk
into an auction place. One day the
auctioneer put up some small packages
which he sold for 5c each, f rushed
up to get one of the packages and
started to search for my nickel. I
usually carry my money in my trous
ers. pocket, but had that morning
transferred ft to my coat packet and
at the time couldn’t locate any money
in my possession. To add to my em
barrassment, the auctioneer said in a
loud voice, “It’s all right. Mister, you
can put up a small deposit on the pack
age.”
In the waiting room of a depart
ment store the other day I met an ac
quaintance whom I did not care for
very much. Making an excuse that
I had a telephone call to make I went
