And while lie was directing tlie work of extinguishing tile fire at the o!d house » at IlC'J i'ass Street, hi.s thoughts took flight to the days w lieu the place was occupied by ids school chum, Hubert Cults ■Williams, son of (ienernl Williams who was stationed at Fort Omaha. He arid Robert attended Creighton college. Incidentally, v)m Cass street house was built In ISOS and is one of the oldest houses now In use here.

May 23. -Progressive republican* and democrats pressing the Howell-Bark ley bill to supplant the railway labor board wJth a sys tem of mediation and conciliation took a new turn in their fight in the house today. They derided to ask for a special rule to brinjar the measure up for action. They asserted they bad been given assurances that a rule would be granted, although no definite promise had been made. The demand for a rule Is based on the contention that in view of the fili buster against it and the short time remaining before adjournment is scheduled, it* consideration on the next suspension day, a week from the roniinjf Monday, would mean that no other bill* on the suspension and unanimous consent calendar* would have any rbanee of action. There are scores of members interested in these bills, and It is asserted they will bark the movement, fop a rule to take up the hill without rrpard to suspen *|on day. MRS.
