"HOT BISCUITS" A Tragedy By Jack Carter, of Anaheim. (Copyrighted) Hop Sing lived on Canal street, he owned a laundry, and the whitest of clothes, and the brightest of smiles awaited his patrons when they handed in the duplicate slip of paper, with the perpendicular caballistie outlines. Lee Hop owned a restaurant on Bridge street, and only a lane divided the gardens belonging to Hop Sing and Lee Hop—only a lane—and they were enemies and all on account of O Mea San, the plump Japanese beauty in the Curio Shop on the corner, with the cherry blossom complexion, who divided her favors equally between them. The creamiest coffee, and the most delectable chop suey, with other Chinese dainties, were served at the polished counter at Lee Hop's, and he prospered, as all good citizens and hard workers, should prosper, and only one thing more was required to make a Chinese heaven, and that was, to have O Mea San for his wife, and but for Hop Sing she might be, indeed, of course, would be, if he were only deported, or married, or dead—ah, dead—and he pondered deeply, and his narrow eyes were but slits and then he smiled—and now O Mea San passed the window, and he smiled once more—but differently. Hop Sing had one failing, he loved too well the flesh-pots of New York, and no one could make such chop suey or hot biscuits, as Lee Hop, but he could not eat there—no. And now he was told that Lee Hop was making his biscuits with sour cream, and, oh, how they melted in one's mouth, and nating during the period of federal control is going forward rapidly, and additional funds are coming into the treasury from that source. Of course, the above figures will have to be revised somewhat as the end of the fiscal year approaches, but their tendency is plain. With treasury officials straining every nerve to bring in all the money possible before the year ends, and with executives in every branch of the government holding expenditures down to the barest necessities, the outlook is highly encouraging. THAT SHIPPING FILLIBUSTER The United States senate has been called "the greatest deliberative body in the world." But the latest of the fillibusters which the senate's antiquated rules make possible is an added proof that it is hopelessly shackled by the specious fiction of so-called "senatorial courtesy" or whatever obsession it is which enables opposing senators "to talk a measure to death." Nothing could be less "deliberative" or more deliberative than the rules which permit the will of the majority to be throttled by the loquacity and the endurance of a few men who are against a given measure. Every principle of majority government is violated. If a majority of the senate opposed the shipping bill the fillibuster would not be invoked. The deliberate obstruction of the will of the majority, therefore, is a survival of rules that should long ago have been changed. There is no good reason why both the senate and the house should not be governed by the same regulations affecting debate. They are, to all intents and purposes, co-ordinate. In some respects the house enjoys a certain precedence in prerogatives not tent observers in are certain members of the house of charmed circle ored with grand tour of Rof of the soviet govern correspondents, oed with our department tigators from other governments reliable. Even this is willing to bear Hence no doubt to bolshevik, through ducted tour, to la a selected group greensmen the full complishment.

With voice, even though the opportunity o from the windows special train,the observers have to and chaos that sia. Almost wif findings attest th vism as a politic ment. It is diffic ican congressmen Hop Sing had one failing, he loved too well the flesh-pots of New York, and no one could make such chop suey or hot biscuits, as Lee Hop, but he could not eat there—no. And now he was told that Lee Hop was making his biscuits with sour cream, and, oh, how they melted in one's mouth, and he made up his mind to have just one meal there, so one morning he slipped in when no one was looking, and took a seat behind a screen close to the door, but Lee Hop had a mirror that showed him all that went on behind that screen, and when he saw Hop Sing glide in, he smiled once again. Three biscuits were all one ever got at Lee Hop's, and when they brought them to Hop Sing, all smoking hot, and risen, oh, so high, well, he just couldn't wait, so he ate them up, but when they brought the steak there were three more; they must have forgotten about the others, and he chuckled to himself, but not half so much as Lee Hop chuckled in the kitchen. He finished his meal, and went back to his tubs in the yard, and how he did work, as he thought of O Mea San, and the time when she might be at the tubs, while he tied up the parcels and pocketed the money, but suddenly he pulled himself straight up, then bent over double, and crawled inside, and forgot all about O Mea San, and a doctor was called, but he did not stay long; it was of no use. He pronounced it "acute indigestion." And Lee Hop saw the commotion, and when the body was taken away, his smile was "peculiar"—yes, "pecular." Mrs. Lee Hop, formerly O Mea San—sits at the desk taking the money, with the same cherry-blossom complexion and ravishing smile, and two almond-eyed "kiddies," as round as their mother, play on the floor. Lee Hop never makes hot biscuits now, and when he is asked the reason, his eyes "narrow," and his smile is "peculiar," and then don't ask again. FIGHTING THE DEFICIT The report from London that Great Britain would make her semi-annual interest payment of $69,000,000 in Liberty bonds, instead of cash, upset somewhat the calculations of the treasury. That amount had been counted upon to help reduce the imposed the shipping bill the fillibuster would not be invoked. The deliberate obstruction of the will of the majority, therefore, is a survival of rules that should long ago have been changed. There is no good reason why both the senate and the house should not be governed by the same regulations affecting debate. They are, to all intents and purposes, co-ordinate. In some respects the house enjoys a certain precedence in prerogatives not possessed by the senate. The fiction that the house is "closer to the people' has been entertained for many years. The senate should be just as "close to the people" as the house, which is governed by rules that make it virtually impossible for the majority to be strangled by a minority. MR. HARVEY'S SPEECH It is the fashion in many circles to condemn George Harvey every time he opens his mouth. Some of his utterances may, perhaps, have been a shade indiscreet, but certainly the capious will have difficulty in censuring his latest utterance at the Pilgrims' dinner in London. Mr. Harvey told the British public some facts which they stood in need of hearing. The British have long been under the impression that the United States had made a "goat" of Britain. They have believed that the United States, during the war, would not loan money to the allies unless repayment was guaranteed by Britain. They have felt that the United States played the role of sharpster and shylock. We need not discuss the causes which resulted in the widespread dissemination of that impression. Probably one of them was the lack of just such blunt speaking as Ambassador Harvey indulged in at the Pilgrims' dinner. At any rate the fact for a long time has been apparent that Britain not only misjudged the American attitude, but was misinformed concerning the American attitude. This has been unfortunate, for it has led the British to believe that they were being victimized by America. Mr. Harvey, we conceive, is only doing his duty when he sets out to explode those misconceptions which have been damaging America in Britain. When misconceptions of a nation are founded on misconceptions of fact, it is the duty of that nation's ambassador to clear away those misconceptions of fact. Mr. Harvey's as opposed the shipping bill the fillibuster would not be invoked.

That amount had been counted upon to help reduce the impending deficit, but will not be available for that purpose if it is received in bonds. With that large item of cash receipts gone, the most recent estimate of the deficit on June 30, the end of the fiscal year, is $180,000,000. That figure is given by Gen. Lord, the chief of the budget bureau. Nevertheless, treasury officials cite other revenue items that have not been anticipated, which they believe will not only wipe out the deficit in the next three months, but leave a comfortable surplus. Income tax payments for March 15 are about $50,000,000 more than had been estimated. Payments for the next quarter, due figure also. An early estimate of back tax collections placed the receipts at $300,000,000, but it is said that the energetic checking up by the internal revenue bureau may bring in $100,000,000 more than that amount. Customs revenue under the much-maligned Republican tariff law will exceed by $100,000,000 all of the earlier estimates, and by June 30 they are expected to total about $500,000,000. The treasury is continuing the sale of railroad securities held by the government, and the end of the fiscal year the total receipts are expected to be $100,000,000, fifty million more than was anticipated. The settlement of claims against the railroads originating the American attitude. This has been unfortunate, for it has led the British to believe that they were being victimized by America. Mr. Harvey, we conceive, is only doing his duty when he sets out to explode those misconceptions which have been damaging America in Britain. When misconceptions of a nation are founded on misconceptions of fact, it is the duty of that nation's ambassador to clear away those misconceptions of fact. Mr. Harvey's assertion that Britain never guaranteed the payment of a single dollar loaned by the United States for any other country than Britain is said to have caused a sensation. That is well. It will force the British to adjust themselves to a new vision and a changed perspective. Good Anglo-American relations are desired in both countries, and at times such relations are promoted rather by plain speaking than by diplomatic camouflage. When the first shock has worn off, our relations with Britain will be the better as the result of Mr. Harvey's speech. We think he has rendered America some good service by disabusing the British mind of certain superstitions which have long been in existence and which persistently maligned the character of the American policy. WHAT WOULD CONGRESSIONAL TOUR OF RUSSIA FIND OUT? The offer of a free tour of Russia extended by the soviet government to certain members of the national legislature proves quite conclusively that the lustre of the achievements of the 67th congress extends far beyond American shores. Obviously the testimony of other observers is valueless and undependable. The wise men in the world, and the only truly competent the American attitude. This has been unfortunate, for it has led the British to believe that they were being victimized by America.

Newspaper correspondents, special writers, agents of our department of state and investigators from the foreign offices of other governments are notoriously unreliable. Even the soviet government is willing to bear witness to this fact. Hence no doubt the eagerness of the bolshevik, through a personally conducted tour, to lay before the eyes of a selected group of American congressmen the full fruits of soviet accomplishment. Will a personally conducted tour, however, in which the visitors will see all things through the media of bolshevist interpreters, enable the congressmen from Washington to return with a really accurate estimate of the measure of the bolshevist accomplishment? Granted that the newspaper correspondents and the government agents are untrained observers, granted that their faculties and powers of observation have not been sharpened by two or more years of participation in the work of legislating for the nation. The correspondents and other observers, notwithstanding this handicap, have nevertheless given accounts of Russian affairs that are surprisingly uniform. With hardly a dissenting voice, even though they have not had the opportunity of studying Russia from the windows of a government special train, these non-congressional observers have told us of the anarchy and chaos that prevail through Russia. Almost without exception their findings attest the failure of bolshevism as a political and social experiment. It is difficult to see how American congressmen can reach a consensus among their observers in our terrestrial body. STATEMENT OF THE OWNERSHIP Management, Circulation, Etc., Required by the Act of Congress of August 24, 1912. Of the Anaheim Gazette, published weekly at Anaheim, California, for April 1, 1923. State of California, County of Orange, SS: Before me, a notary public in and for the state and county aforesaid, personally appeared Henry Kuchel, who, having been duly sworn according to law, deposes and says that he is the owner of the Anaheim Gazette,and that the following is, to the best of his knowledge and belief,a true statement of the ownership, management (and if a daily paper,the circulation),etc.of the aforesaid publication for the date shown in the above caption,required by the act of August 24, 1912, embodied in section 443, postal laws and regulations,printed on the reverse of this form.to-wit: 1. That the names and addresses of the publisher, editor, managing editor,and business managers are: Publisher,Henry Kuchel,Anaheim, California. Editor,Henry Kuchel,Anaheim, California.

With hardly a dissenting voice, even though they have not had the opportunity of studying Russia from the windows of a government special train, these non-congressional observers have told us of the anarchy and chaos that prevail through Russia. Almost without exception their findings attest the failure of bolshevism as a political and social experiment. It is difficult to see how American congressmen can reach a conclusion materially different from this unless, in the vernacular phrase, some person or persons shall succeed in throwing wool over their eyes. There is no vast, no unsearchable mystery about Russia. If the bolsheviks are not all demons and monsters, as some would have us believe, it is no less true that failure in large and ominous letlers is written across the experiment which they have sponsored. Of this failure, the misery and wretchedness which are the present lot of the great mass of the Russian people are evidences whose meaning even a congressional junket should be able to read. "WAMPAS FROLIC BALL" The Goldwyn glide, the Metro march, the Patte prance, the Fox fox trot, Sennett slide, the Warner walta and other novelty dances created in the motion picture studios of Hollywood are to be featured at the "1923 Wampas Frolic and Ball" staged by the allied press agents of the film industry, whose official organization is the Western Motion Picture Advertisers, but which has become corrupted to "Wampas." It is the big social event of the cinema year, and this season the P. A.'s will follow their custom inaugurated last year of presenting to the world a baker's dozen of their choice for coming stars. Harry Wilson, vice-president of the association, is director general. The thirteen "stars-to-be" recently selected by the advertising men as the screen luminaries of tomorrow, will be introduced to the general public for the first time at the "Wampas Frolic and Ball," which will be held on the largest motion picture stage now under construction at the Warner Brothers studio in Hollywood. The day and date of the affair has been definitely set as Saturday, April 21.
