I La Follette Opens Fire on Bill for Funding Railways Pomerene Calls It "Handout" Demo Solons Term it "Loan" War Finance N Head Is Defender Washington, Aug. 10. Opposition to the administration bill for funding about $500,000,000 for the railroads developed openly today before the senate Interstate Commerce com mittee. Senator La Follette, republican, Wisconsin, opened fire on the bill, while democratic senators character ized the proposal as a loan to the "railroads. Senator Pomerene, Ohio, referred to it as a "handout." Director Meyer of the war finance corporation defended the bill vigor ously as a measure for general country wide, as well as railroad habituation and denied that it was a loan or a handout. Senator La Follette referred to loans by the war finance corporation to the Brooklyn Rapid Transit com pany and a New Orleans street rail way company which he said soon atterwards became bankrupt. The senator said he did that to in dicate "how business was trans acted." Director Meyer replied that he re garded the Brooklyn Rapid Transit loan as "eventually good," and said the New Orleans loan had been paid in full. ' Senator La Follette sought to show that the bill really would authorize the war finance corpora tion to fund, or sell, over Sl.OUO.UUO, 000 of railroad securities rather than onlv $500,000,000. Mr. Meyer de dared that funding of the latter amount only was contemplated or could be reasonably accomplished, Railway Labor Board Orders Secret Ballot Tn $pfrf Committee Chlrmro Tribune-Omaha Be Teased Wire.

Lawrence denied that Tellegen has been loafing and has failed to pay his share of the exoenscs of the Farrar-Tellengen menage, as friends of the prima donna allege. "Mr. Tellegen has been busy all summer, rehearsing his part in 'Don Juan.' which is a heavy one," said Lawrence. "His part in the play i a very heavy one, you know he makes ardent lov to 12 women. "Mr. Tellegen has asked me to make a statement to the newspa pers: i "Mr. Tellegen worked for 10 months last year in "His Blind Youth," coining in off the road in April. He then signed the contract to star in 'Don Juan.' We felt that there was no other man on the stage who could play the part; that of making love to 12 women at once. It is silly to say that Miss Farrar objected to his making love to so many women on the stage. "As a matter of fact, Miss Farrar read the play and Mr. Tellegen told us that she wanted to buy a share in it. She even went so far as to tell Mr. Tellegen that she would ar range the incidental music for the production. Mr. Tellegen was study ing his part, which consists of 150 pages, all summer. Rehearsals started on Monday. "Mr. ' Tellegen feels very hurt at the statement that he had not paid his share of home expenses or con tributed anything toward the sup port of the house." Frank Rankin, Tellegen's secretary, spent yesterday counting the neck ties, socks, collars and suits of the matinee idol in the Manhattan stor age warehouse, where Mrs. Farrar had them sent.

How can women get sunburned everywhere above the waist line is a question which is per plexing Deauville.

' Gossip follows the appearance of a blonde American girl at the casino wearing the most daring backless chemise gown yet seen, the corsage consisting solely of two tiny trian gles of beaded net, which are held up by ropes of pearls over the shoul ders. Although the costume repre sented the irreducible minimum in raiment, causing even the hardened baccarat players to sit up and take notice, not a single square inch of white skin was revealed the girl was tanned everywhere above the waist line.

Strong Says Head of Federal Reserve In Metropolis Tells of Cau tion Taken During Money Stringency. Washington, Aug. 10. New York banks, which obtained great sums in fprferal reserve loans durins the money stringency last fall, were closely supervised, Governor strong of the New York reserve bank testi fied yesterday before a congressional commission. He introduced the con fidential and almost daily reports at the time upon "Bank No. 6," which he identified as an institution which kept $130,000,000 in reserve loans and was "engaged largely in speculative operations." John Skelton Williams, former comptroller of the currency and chief of the reserve system's critics, when called before the commission recent ly, referred to such a bank as having been unduly favored. "We ascertained the cause of credit demands because we wanted to known whether loans were justi fied," Governor Strong said, "and if the money was necessary to legiti mate needs of the business of the country, we furnished it. If the Stock Exchange loan accounts of banks appeared to be rising we would warn bankers that reservi money was not lent for that purpose. One of these institution estimated that it might need as much as $80,000,000 merely to handle export shipments of cotton. "Now the comptroller (Mr. Wil liams) didn't know these things. It didn't concern him, and I, for one, never discussed it with him." He repeated denials that the in creased reserve interest rates forced breaks in commodity prices and said the reserve system "had fostered the sentiment that producers and business enterprises should be carried through the emer gency." Governor Strong asserted that th? lending in 1920 of $240,000,000 from the reserve system for agricultural credits indicated that, by the multi plication of bank credits, probably $2,000,000,000 in first-hand loans to producers were extended at the pe riod. He was excused until Thursday, the commission, which is specially charged with an inquiry into agri cultural conditions, having sum moned other witnesses for the inter vening period Men From Beatrice Visit President at Washington Washington, Aug. 10.
