CRUCE MAY CALL
SPECIAL SESSION
Rumor That All District Court Repor-
ters Will Co on Strike After
First Of July.

Oklahoma City, May IA special
session Of the legislature to convene
after the adjournment Of congress
seems likely, and in fact Governor
Cruee has let it be known Indirectly
that he considers at least short ses-
sion necessary.
Provided congress passes a reap
portionment bill, it will be necessary
to redistrict the state into congress
sional districts probably eight, and
that in itself would be a sufficient pre-
text for calling the assembly together.
Other matters too are continually
cropping out, demanding attention and
going neglected because of the failure
of the last legislature to make neces-
sary provisions or appropriations or
because Of contingencies that have
arisen since adjournment.
There is no ample appropriations
for the next fiscal year to carry on
the appraisal and sale Of school lands.
There is an old appropriation avail
able only until July !, and with this,
as much of the reappraisal will be
gotten out of the way as possible, but
new provision should be made to
take care Of the coming year.
Governor Cruce vetoed the appro-
priation for district court stenogra-
piers, either through misapprehension,
believing that there was statute that
would take care of the reporters, or
because he feared the bill was so franz
ed that it would permit them to draw
down more than he believed they
should receive. After July there. will
be no money available for them, and
the possibility of strike Of all the
court reporters has been mentioned.
Even should this not occur there is
bound to be difficulty to settle
The sudden cessation of work at
the deaf school Of Sulphur has render
ed necessary the passage Of a new
bill reapportioning for construction
work and further authorizing the state
board of public affairs to go ahead
with the buildings already provided
for. The state paid about two-thirds
of the cost of the new buildings for
the Sulphur school, and then discov-
cred defective concrete that rendered
the structure practically worthless. If
the state can recover from the con-
tractor, on his bond, the money will
go into the treasury, from whence it
cannot be taken except. by appropria-
tion.
/ These and many other minor mat
ters would justify the governor in
calling the Legislature together in the
late summer or early fall for a BRIEF
session.

BORDWELL IS SLATED TO

Los Angeles, May 9.--Probably the
most important development of the
day in the case of the alleged dynami-
ters was the one indicating, almost to
a certainty, that Judge Walker Bord-

en- to try the cases of the indicted men.
While no official announcement was
made on the subject, and the choice
of Judge Bordwell could not be con-
firmed in any direct manner, every in
dication pointed to him as the trial
Judge In this connectieh, it was point
ed out that only the most unusual cir
cumstances could cause a case to be
transferred for trial from a court in
which the original indictments were
returned.

DOLLAR DIPLOMACY URGED
At PEACE CONFERENCE
Huntington Wilson Declares for Substitution of
Dollars for Bullets in Extention of Amer
ican Business Interests Other Ad-
dresses at National Peace Con-
ference Now in Session.

American countries against the Unit
ed States The United States had no
right said Mr.. Slayden, to prevent
the colonization Of foreigners in these
states.
so far as | am advised said Mr..
Slayden, the people of South Ameri-
ca do not want US to protect them
against the settlement Of white Euro
peans on their unoceupied lands. They
do not believe that we have the right
to assort a policy that will retard the
development of their resources and /
must own that | think their position
is well taken
Primarily our duty to other Amer
lean states is to let them alone, only
holding them to a strict respect for
the obligations of international law.
"The recent noisy and unjustified
demand for Intervention by our gov
ernment in the internal affairs OF
Mexico is a case in point. The gov.
ernment of Mexico is not the govern.
ment that we would like But it is
the sort of government that the Mex
leans have set up for themselves and
its forms and facts are not our con
cern so long as international obliga-
tions are discharged"
Mr.. Slayden referred to Senator Ray
nor's recent speech in the senate on
the Mexican situation in the following
words:
Senator Raynor has lately shown
eloquently and clearly that the Mon
roe doctrine did not make us an agent
to collect doubtful loans made by
European usurers. He has indicated
with sscorching wit what would be the
consequence of a policy that would
drive us into stock jobbers' and money
lenders wars.
( For years we have been trying to
remove the suspicion with which
Spanish-America views this govern
hlCnI anu lto pOllIiCo. uC uOoJlllly
that grows out of that suspicion i'm
pede the development of international
trade and so it is economically hurt
full. The best efforts of the president
acting for all the people, and of wise
and just men everywhere are largely
neutralized by the thoughtless and
wilfully criminal.
For some time civil war has beer
raging in Mexico. 1t is notorious thai
the insurrectos, so called have beer
! equipped from the United States will
both men and arms. Everybody has
known it but the agents of the de
partment of justice.
Indeed it appears that we have
done nearly everything possible tC
arouse the hostility of the mass of tn,
Mexican people and to cause all Span
ish Americans to think that we arr

JACK MYERS STRICKEN
WITH PARALYSI At JOPLIN

For several days Jack Myers a prin-
ter, who has been employed at this
Office, has been missing and his friends
knew nothing of his whereabouts. The
following from the Joplin Globe ex-
plains his absence:
Seized with hemorrhage of the
brain while an inmate of the city Jail
Wednesday night, j. T. Myers of At
Gibson was discovered in stupor
early yesterday morning and later was
found to have suffered paralytic
stroke, which affects his entire body.
''He is in a serious condition at st.
Johns hospital, where he was carried
from the jail yesterday morning in
the automobile ambulance of the Cum
ningham Undertaking company. Myers
was arrested Tuesday night while in
a stupor, supposed by the officers to be
from drunkenness. When an officer
was sent for him to arraign him on a
charge yesterday morning he could
not be aroused. After medical atten
tion had been secured it was found the
man was suffering from paralysis OF
the whole body, caused by a hemorr
hage of the brain. He is a member OF
the Typographical union and is said
to have been employed in Joplin shops

Los Angeles, Cal, May 4-William
J. Ford, assistant district attorney,
who will aid in the prosecution of
John and James Mcnamara, accused
of dynamiting the Times, arrived here
from indianapolis late yesterday. He
is supposed to have brought with him
most of the evidence Detective Burns
is said to have unearthed concerning
the conspiracy charged against the
labor leader and his brother. He went
into conference at once with District
Attorney Fredericks.
With the arrival of Ford, some of
the uncertainties concerning the prob
able procedure in the case began to be
cleared up. Upon the advice of Ford
it is understood Fredericks will decide
whether the prisoners will be arraign-
ed this week or whether in fact they
will be arraigned at all upon the in
dictments returned by the grand jury
against the McNamaras and McMani-
gal
The fact that the district attorney
was considering the question of dis
pensing with arraignment was The de-
velopment of call paid to the prose
cutor by Leo M. Rappaport, at
torney for the international Bridge
and Structural Iron Workers associa.
ton, who is now acting as counsel for
the prisoners. Rappaport said Thursday
night that the district attorney told
him he would discuss the question of
arraignment with Ford and let him
know definitely today.
A preliminary hearing before a JUS
tice of the peace is the alternative
course open to the district attorney,
and the advantage of this lies in the
fact that the prosecution could then
withhold from the defense the evi
dence upon which the indictments
were based.
Ford declined to discuss the case
