Congress Finishes Up Much
Legislation and Ends the
Special Session.
By EDWARD W. PICKARD
|"\ETERMINED to bring the special
a-' session to a close before the
Fourth of July, congress was very
busy the first part of the week, clear
ing up 'the pending legislation. Tak
ing up the new World war veterans'
bill passed by the house, the senate
again showed Its utter disregard for
President Hoover's views and its keen
desire for votes next fall. It loaded
the measure down with amendments,
chief of which was one Increasing the
pension rates to the Spanish war level.
Another would permit veterans who
contracted venereal diseases during
their war service to obtain disability
allowances.
The bill was sent to conference for
elimination of the features that would
be most objectionable to the President.
Among the bills passed by the house
was the Wickersham commission's
border patrol bill designed to help In
curbing the smuggling of liquor from
Canada and Mexico. It establishes an
enlarged and unified border patrol
service in the treasury under the as
sistant secretary in charge of the
coast guard, increases the number of
entry stations, and makes It a mis
demeanor, subject to $100 line, to cross
the border except at an entry station,
with certain exceptions.
The senate passed the house bill
which authorised the President to con
solidate and co-ordinate governmental
activities affecting the war veterans.
SECRETARY of the Treasury Mel
lon announced that the fiscal year
1030 closed with a surplus In the treas
ury of $184,000,000. This amount rep
resented the difference between re
ceipts and expenditures. The public
debt was reduced during the year by
$740,000,000. There was a net balance
In the general fund at the close of the
year of $318,000,000. *
While the surplus was substantial
ly the same as In the fiscal year 1028,
Secretary Mellon pointed out that It
included the abnormal sum of $70,000,-,
000 paid by foreign governments In
June In cash instead of In securities
of the American government and also
Included abnormal customs receipts,
due to anticipation of tariff legislation.
SENATORS JOHNSON of California.
Moses of New Hampshire and Rob
inson of Indiana tiled with the senate
their minority report from the foreign
relations committee, setting forth their
reasons for opposing ratification of
the London naval treaty.
Dispatches from Washington said
that the national defense committee
of the American Legion had made a
report two weeks previously recom
mending that the Legion declare for
rejection of the treaty, and that noth
ing more had been heard of the mat
ter. One rumor was that administra
tion influences had succeeded In bring
ing about the pigeonholing of the
report.
Over in London two of England's
most famous naval commanders. Enrl
Beatty and Earl Jellicoe. made hot at
tacks on the treaty, asserting that by
signing it their government was throw
ing away "the sea power by which the
British empire caihe into being and
developed into what It Is today."
PRESIDENT HOOVER has named
1 as head of the new federal power
commission Lieut. Gen. Edgar Jadwln,
who in his service as chief of army
engineers gained a thorough knowl
edge of the waterways of the country.
His nomination, with those of the other
four commission members, will be sent
to the senate in special session this
summer for confirmation. When two
members have taken office the new
commission will supplant th$ old one.
which Had as its members the secre
taries of war, interior and agricul
ture, and which, since 1020, has super
vised the expenditure,of about $350,
000,000 for power development.
In the new commission applications
for power plants are to be placed in
the hands of five $10,000 a year men
who, the act stipulates, may have no
other occupation. Nor may they have
been connected In any way with, or
I hold any stock in? power companies.
At present 70 applications are pending
! with the commission.
IX A radio address to the governors'
conference which met in Salt Lake
City, President Hoover announced that
federal, state and local governments
had spent or contracted to spend a
total of $1,700,000,000 for public
works dnring the first six months of
the present calendar year. This fig
ure, he said, exceeded by over $200,
000,000 that of the boom year of 1929,
He advised the governors that there
Is still need for "continued serious
effort" In every state and community
to bring an early business recovery,
and to reduce unemployment.
Several of the western governors
delivered addresses scoring the fed
eral government for Its Invasion of
states' rights, especially wlfti regard
to the public domain, unappropriated
lands, and mineral and olf rights.
PROHIBITION enforcement was
? transferred July 1 from the Treas
ury department to the Department of
Justice, and Attorney General Mitchell
became the commander In chief of the
federal dry army with Col. Amos IV.
W. Woodcock as his cldef of sfaff. It
was understood In Washington that
the government's limited staff and ap
propriation will be devoted hereafter
to detecting larger commercial boot
legging. while the effort to obtain
greater co-operation by the states will
be expanded. Many changes have been
made already In the force of prohibi
tion administrators, the most Im
portant being In the metropolitan areas
of New York and Chicago. In the
former MaJ. Maurice Campbell re
signed when ordered to Boston to take
charge of alcohol permits and gave
out a statement attacking "United
States attorneys with political aspira
tions," and Treasury department offi
cials who "have not been sincere in
efforts to enforce this law."
He declared his experience had led
him to the following conclusion:
"Prohibition Is not the logical solu
tion for temperance under our form
of government, and I now publicly ad
vocate the repeal of the Eighteenth
amendment before the nation Is con
sumed In the fires of Ks conse
quences."
Col. John H. J. Herbert became the
enforcement boss of Illinois, Indiana
and Wisconsin, displacing E. C. Tel
lowley, who remains In control of al
cohol permits In that area.
WITH the stroke of midnight on
June 30 the last of the French
troop* of occupation departed from
the Ithlnelnnd and Germany was freed
from the incubna that had rested on
It for almost twelve years. The Ger
man people celebrated the event with
the ringing of bells, with great parades
of singing men and women, with the
playing of hands and with flreworka.
Especially Impressive was the Jnhilee
In the town of Speyer In ttie I'ala
tlnate. Torches and flares lighted the
bridge across the Rhine over which
marched the town's police force of
| 6C0 men as thousands along the wa
i ter's edge and in boats sang "Deutsch
land Ueber Alles."
The final phase of the military evac
uation begun in Wiesbaden at 0:30
o'clock In the morning. The inter-al
lied Ithineiand commission, which kas
headquartered at Wiesbaden since Sep
tember when the headquarters were
moved from Coldenz, closed shop. A
battalion of French troops lined up on
Kaiserstrasse In front of the commis
sion's building where three Hags floated
?Belgian, British and French.
The regimental band broke into the
"Brabnnconne" and the Belgian rtag
slowly descended. Then the military
band played "God Save the King" and
tiie Union Jack slid down the hal
yards. It was a tense moment as the
strains of the "Marseillaise" burst
Into the air and the tricolor floated
down.
High Commissioner Paul Tlrard and
the other officials crossed the Ithine
bridge In motors and a thousand
French soldiers in full war panoply
marched to the railsoad station and
entrained for home.
ALMOST before the outside world
knew anything about It, there
was a successful revolution down la
Bolivia, caused by the alleged efforts
of Hernando Slles. resigned president,
to regain tlie office of chief executive
and hold it In perpetuity. Troops led
by Gen. Carlos Blanco Gallndo occu
pied La Pax. the capital, after a hot
light, and Slles and Ids friends fled
or took refuge in foreign legations.
The military junta took charge of the
government and announced financial
and other plans for the immediate
restoration of the republic to Its nor
mal condition on a constitutional basis.
' It was understood that free elections
would he held and a new president
designated In such a manner that he
cannot perpetuate himself Jn office.
The populace In La Pax was de
lighted with the success of the revolu
tionary movement, and great crowds
surrounded the Brazilian legation
which sheltered Slles. demanding that
lie be given up for trial hy the courts.
Gen. Hons Kundt. German chief ot
staff of the Bolivian army, who was
accused pot onlf of aiding Doctoi
Slles. hut of Prussianizing the Bolivian
forces, fled to the German legation.
General Gallndo took steps to protect
all the former officials from violence.
Great Britain is taking relent
less measures to end the "pas
Hive" rebellion In India. The latest ol
these was the arrest of I'andit Motllal
Nehru, a Hindoo and acting president
of the All-Indln national congress, and
Knyed Mnhmud, a Moslem, secretary
of the congress. They were tried Im
mediately and sentenced to six months
imprisonment. These arrests created
a great sensation throughout Indii
and a hartal or cessation of alt work
was proclaimed In protest. In Bom
hay a "boycott week" was started and
. housewives were urged to refrain front
buying British goods.

MI1.DRED HUSSEL entered her
busbaud's office at the stroke
of 12. She hud come down at
his request to take lunch
with him. He was out. There were
only the office boy. Tommy, and the
sensible little typist, Miss Devue, In
sight. And Miss Devoe was Just ready
to go out and get her lunch.
Mildred sat down In her husband's
chair before Ids desk to wait. She took
her powder compact from her bag and
freshened up her face a hit. After a
year of married life she still took Just
as much pnlns for John as If he were
her lover. And he for her. They had
made a tender little pact to that ef
fect. John was a busy man. Real es
tate. And no car. He walked miles
every day, declaring It kept him lit.
At this moment Mildred knew he was
off somewhere trying to close a deal.
He'd be back soon. Mildred smiled at
the disorder of his desk, evidence of
a busy morning. Her lingers Itched,
orderly little soul, to put things to
rights. But she didn't quite dare. She
noted the blotter ueeded changing.
Opon the blotter lay a letter, faintly
pink, smelling of perfume, written In
a woman's handwriting. Before she
knew what she was doing she had
read the few daintily scribbled lines:
"Dear Jack: 1 don't like 22. 10 Is
better. See what you thing about 16. 27
suits me. I'm sure we'll both agree on
33. Yours,
??vi a icir ??
naivuji
Mildred felt a whirling tense of mls
hap. Her heart beat thick anil s|pw.
Maiale! She knew nobody by that
natne. One happened upon the name
In books, and the woinun who bore
It was always blond and frivolous,
Tbere bad been a Malsie In the last
picture she ihw, "Fetter Free." Of
course lots or people wrote to Jack,
lots of women who wished either to
buy or sell property. Nothing unusual
about that. But this letter was a dis
tinct variation. In code. He must be
familiar with the code, for It meant
nothing to Mildred. "I'm sure we'll
both agree on 33." Anil that "Dear
Jack." She hail never cnlled him any
thing out John. Doubt, suspicion, un
rest surged together in Mildred's hon
est heart.
Rising, she went to the window and
stood with her buck to the room, fus
ing down loto the street, trying to get
command of herself. She heard the
door open. Jack bad come. She turned
nnd faced him. He looked wann,
flushed, with the haste he had made,
but altogether splendid. His straw hat
was In Ids hand. His dark hair had
just been trimmed.
"How long you been waiting?" he
demanded.
"Not long."
"Come on." Mildred crossed the room
to him aud they went out together.
In the street she had to step quickly
to keep up with his stride. They en
i tered a restaurant noted for Its de
licious seafood. A waiter conducted
| them to a table and took their order.
"What's the matter?" John looked
critically at Mildred.
"Nothing. Why?"
"1 thought you looked as If some
thing didn't please you."
"The Idea I" Mildred smiled, llet
Impulse was to ask him about tbc
pink letter. But It would look toe
much as If she'd been snooping. A
I man's business was his affair. If Ik
chose to tell his wife nnythlng shi
1 could listen. But not ask questions
Mildred had learned this lesson from
the way her father behaved toward
her mother. Man's kingdom was hl<
I office. Woman's kingdom the home
i No confllctlon of responsibilities If a
state of married bliss was to be main
talned.
1 Instead of asking a question thai
1 would hare ended all suspense at
least, lllldred gazed around the crowd*
> ed place, sorting out blonds from bru
1 nettes. John used to say, "God mad)
? brunettes. The silversmith mad<
I blonds." She winced at the memory.
Lunch over, she went hack to tht
1 office with him. She wanted to se?
what happened when he sat down al

? thrust It aside with several others

Bruges, like many unfamiliar for- j
sign place nnmes. may hare an ex
Klc sound to the American ear. But J
It has about as common an origin
and Is about as logically descriptive
as "Three Itivers" or "Smith's Cross- 1
roads." Because the town from the '
beginning had numerous canals and '
structures carrying streets across them '
It was oanied (In Flemish) "Bridges."
It Is it sort of reversed Venice. Where- 1
as the latter Is nn area of sea with '
islands scattered la It. Bruges Is a 1
land area cut Into islands bv onmer- 1
-ius canals. In both cities many houses
rise sheer from the water and boots
are used for traffic.
Like Venice again. Bruges was once
the commercial and hanking center
of the world. This was In the Font*
teentb century. The center of com
mere! a I activity had moved from Italy
to Flanders, and Bruges was then
Flanders' greatest market. World trade
came up the River Zwyn whlcb then
gave It a harbor; merchants from I lie
four quarters of the world maintained
headquarters In the city; and Its
bourse regulated the exchange rate
for all Europe. Ghent was a strong
rival, hot until the Zwyn finally ail
led up in 1-100 Bruges held Its own.
At the height of its power Bruges
had a population of 200,1*.*). and was
one of the wealthiest and busiest
cities In Europe. Now the inhabitants
number about .1.000.
Trad* Ruined by Silt.
During Its busiest era, Bruges boast
Mi headquarters of merchants from
seventeen countries. Fabrics were
tblpped from Italy and the East, furs
from Russia and Bulgaria, metals
from Poland and Hungary. Wool,
cheese and coal from the British Isles,
fruits from Granada and Egypt, and
Arabian spires and Rhenish wine were
> marketed there.
By the end of the fifteenth century
the rivers and canals silted up, trade
, routes changed, and tbe merchants
forsook Bruges for Antwerp, leaving
t city of Old Worid charm for trav
elers to enjoy.
Canals which were once crowded
, with shipping now are clogged with
lilt, moss and lily pads, and in some
parts white swans fearlessly swim
