Defect in AntI-Pnss Bill.

Z. r.. Mason, clerk of the United States
district court of this city, is of the opinion
that the new anti-pass law which goes into
effect July does not apply to persons hold
ing elective or appointive positions under
the United States government. Concerning
It he said today:
The law is fatally defective, inasmuch as
Il says federal officers" which is an am
gibuous term and may be applied to Of
fcers of any federation or association Of
men.
Furthermore, the United States statutes
define United States officers as those APP
pointed by the president or heads of the
departments only. This includes but
small body Of men and 1t is a safe guess
that most OF the men in the government
employ will ride on passes II they so elect.
