SUPREME COURT WILL SETTLE
The Vexed Question Of the Treaty
Making Power of the Government
Where 1t Conflicts with
State RfglQs

Washington. Sept. 5.-One of the
most serious attacks eyer made upon
the treaty-makins power of the Unit
ed States will mark tfee opening of
the coming term of the supreme court
Of the United States next month.
The Italian government, through its
consul general on the Pacific coast,
Will argue that the United States pos
sesses broad enough treaty making g
power to deal with the settlement of
estates of foreigners who die in this
country without leaving wills.
Public officials fronls staii fornia will
contend that the federal government
has no such power and will ask the
court to do what it never yet has done,
declare a treaty unconstitutional
More than twenty nations with
treaties similar to this one between the
United States and Italy will await the
decision of the court. In many re-
|spects the question involved resembles
the Japanese school question in Cali
fornia during the Roosevelt admins
ira ton, and it is said that the decision
would control the latter question
should it ever arise again.

London.-Once more man is being

Men, it is now suggested, are much
more inquisitive and anxious to poke

than are women.
A weH-known lady novelist, whose
experience of social conditions is ex'
ceptionally large, made this interest
ing statement:
"One has only to go to the theater
or a garden party to notice the insat-
liable curiosity of the modern man,

"1n theaters it is the men who dis

Women, on the other hand. espe-
cially elderly women. are not really
curious concerning their surroundings.

ness to millions of inhabitants 1t is
perhaps more frequented by fisher
men and hunters than any other spot
of like size in the region mentioned.
Getting to the camp these modern
days is usually accomplished. with far
greater ease than in the time OF our
forefathers, but the requirements OF
present-day camper are vastly differ
ent. The modern hunter can ride in
comfortable train to the very border
Of his camping ground. Hunters in the
earlier days were usually compelled to
make long trips in cumbersome wagons
that bounced and swayed over the
rough roads of country in the max
ing before arriving anywhere near
their final destination and then there
was the wearisome pack trail still
ahead of them. But the latter had this
advantage-they carried far less into
the woods.
The hunter of today usually thinks
he must carry with him a thousand and
one essentials of the civilized life to
which he has become accustomed
Aside from his expensive gun and its
elaborate appurtenances there are
tent, a kit of aluminium cooking uten-
sils, tableware, coIlapsable stove,
sleeping bag. lantern. ak, and no end
of personal conveniences as well as a
medicine chest. Really, one may be
pardoned for wondering If the fellow
ever gets through his daily grooming
in time to shoot at a deer with his
nice, shiny gun before shutdown.
What a comparison with the outfit OF
the old-time hunter? The idea of
safety razor being added to his pack
would have convulsed the old fellow
with laughter. Given a gun and plenty
of ammunition, a hunting knife, flint
and steel. a camp kettle and perhaps
a bit of salt, with the addition OF
blanket in cold weather and perhaps
the luxury OF a small sack of meal. he
would roam the tnterminable forests
