Washington, May 22 A filibuster of a magnitude not seen at the Capitol for 'many sessions appeared In tho House today with such well-disciplined force that It paralyzed legislative machinery and forced an adjournment after three futile hours of wrangling. The llepublican majority brought up the J35.000.000 Kiver and Harbor Improvement bill, a measure of a highly controversial character.

The bill contains an authorization for the development of the Illinois Kiver, which in turn would divert water from tho Great Lakes an'! thus lower their level. Iargo Group Opposes It. A group of somo 50 or more representatives are determined that this authorization shall be killed off and they have adopted tho filibuster as their weapon of attack. Their first day's drive was entirely successful all along the line. This filibuster is of sufficient strength to Jeopardize the entire legislative program of tho for the remainder of this session.

The Great Lakes Congressmen declare they aro fighting for a principle and they are Intent upon tying up all Congressional business for an Indefinite time In order to remove from the bill the Illinois Itiver project. Another item In the bill which fell before their united parliamentary attack called for a 1100. OOU survey for an all-Amerlcan water route from the Great Lakes to the sea through New oYrk Slate.
