cred important were made late in the

a plan of cooperation. District Attor-
ney Sims also met a number of city
officials in the mayors office, and the
question of federal assistance in the
roofing out of anarchy was taken up.

efforts of the various branches of au-
thority should be directed toward the
SURPRISING of the propaganda of an

ciined to discuss the measures con-
1emplated, but said that any steps that
may be undertaken by the federal au-
thorities will depend upon the DTOce-
dure of the city and state officials.
