CONGRESS ALONE MAY OBJECT
TO THIS METHOD OF
LEGISLATION.
OREGON LAWSUSTAINED
CHIEF JUSTICE WHITE AN.
NoUNcEO THE UNANIMOUS
DECISION OF COURT.
Western Newspaper Union News Service

WGshingtOn.-Only Congress and
not the Supreme Court OF the United
States may object to the initiative
and referendum method OF Legislation
In the states. so the court decided.
That tribunal held that the question
of whether 4 state SIN maintained n
republican form OF government guar.
antccd by the federal constitution
after 1t adopted the Initiative and ref.
erendum. was n problem for Congress
and not judicial one for the courts.
The decision was based on the claim
of the Pacific States Telephone and
Telegraph Company that n tax upon
II, imposed by the initiative and refer
endum method IN Oregon. was Incon-
stitutional. The initiative and refer
endum provisions in Missouri. Cali
forhia, Arkansas. Colorado. South Da-
kota, Utah. Montana. Oklahoma. Maine
and Arizona. hung In the balance.
Chief Justice White announced the
decision Of the court. None OF the
justices disscntcd. The court gave n
similar decision in fererence to an
ordinance in Portland, Ore. for the
construction OF a bridge.
The chief justice said that "a sim
gular Misrepresentation" had existed
on both sides Of the case. but that
the "mists and confusion" were dis
PEELED by the decision OF Chief Justice
Tahey years ago, in which he disposed
Of the DORIS rebellion question.
That was the case OF Luther vs.. Bor-
den. he said. and decided that the en-
forcement Of the guarantee Of Re-
publican form OF government to the
states belonged to the political de-
partment Of the government, and
came up, for instance. on the admis-
sion of senators and members OF the
House to their respective bodies.

Philadelphia, Dec. At the Univer- sity of Pennsylvania. it was announc- ed yesterday that George Brooke, the former fulIback and Swarthmore coach, had agreed to accept the posi- ton as head coach of the football team provided he is permitted to have full authority and is allowed to select an assistant coach.
 Prominent Pennsylvania alumni,
 members of the Racquet Club and other prominent c1ubmen have con- tributed to a fund which will assure his work, and 1t was not until Chair man Hobart W. Porter of the Football Committee agreed to step down and allow the naming of an entirely new coterie of men was 1t possible to bring about the appointment Of the old star footba1ler.
 Football affairs at Penn are to uTl- dergo complete reorganization. The men who have been in control for the last five years are to withdraw, and under the new plan, Brooke will name his own associates and practically will be supreme in these matters.

KlLBANE IN BID WITH
 PUBLIC FOR RECENT ACTS

Johnny Kilbane seems in a, fair way to become one of the most unpopular champions of late years. Hardly g. news despatch concerning him does he Is matched with Tommy Dixon, Q featherweight Of little more than av- craze ability. According to the con- ditions of the match Dixon must get down to 122 pounds, while Kilbane re- serves the right to come in at any weight that suits him.
 Apparently Kilbane cares little for popularity or he would not allow such an unsportsmanlfke arrangement to be published broadcast He says he is in the boxing game merely for the money he can make out of it, and brides himself on being a business man. But if he were a shrewd one he would at least show a sense of fair play. even if he happens to be without one There was a. time when cham pion was willing to give away weight He usually considered himself above the ruck of struggling contenders

BOOKED FOR CHILE
Johnny De Saules, Former Yale Quar- terback, May Be Named By
 Wilson,

 Last December DeSaulles married Senorita. Bianquita ErrazuriZ of Santi- ago, Chile, daughter of the wealthiest woman in Chile, and known as the .sStar of Santiago because of her beauty which her daughter; Mrs. De- SauIles, inherits. The latter is a re- markable horsewoman and linguist. She received her education in Paris and was much sought by suitors among the British, French, Spanish and Russian nobility
 7oung' DeSaulles for several years was secretary to William H. Rey- holds, formerly State Senator, and was active in the promotion of Long Beach, L. 1. He is a. business pro- tege of J. F. Coyne, who has been in terested for 20 years in South Amer jean railroads.
 DeSauIIes left the employ of Rey- holds to enter that of the South Amer ican Concessions Syndicate, which is financed in New York London and Valparaiso, Chile. He went to Val paraiso in the winter of 1911, and was instrumental in promoting the Trans Andean railroad, the connecting link, 300 miles long, of the railway sys- tems of Chile and the Argentine Re- public.
