LAW TO BE HELD UP
HITCHCOCK WILL DELAY EN-
FORGING "PUBLiCITY" BILL.
Awaits Legal Opinion From Attorney
General as to Authority of Con-
gress-Newspapers Protest.

Washington, Sept, 23.-Frank H.
Hitchcock, postmaster general, has
decided not to attempt to enforce the
s~o-called newspaper publicity" sec
ton of the new post office %appropria-
ton bill without on opinion from At
torney General Wickersham as to
what it means, and as to the authority
of congress under the Constitution to
make the requirements of newspa-
pers, magazine and other periodicals
set forth in the section.
A serious question has arisen as to
the right of congress to require news
papers and periodicals to furnish in
formation about copies which do not
enter the mails, but which circulate
merely in a single city or town by
private carriers or newsboys.
In addition to this it is doubtful
whether that paragraph which pro-
hibits newspapers and periodicals
from printing any editorial OF read
ing matter" for which money or any
other valuable consideration has been
paid or promised, without marking it
plainly advertisement, is not a Serl-
Gus infringement of the liberty of the
press.
This is being bitterly opposed by
hundreds of small newspapers
throughout the country who do not
believe that congress has any right to
interfere with their business to such
an extent. Thousands of letters are
pouring in upon the post office de-
partment, asking questions about the
meaning of the new provision of law
of which nobody seems willing to ad-
nit the fatherhood.
Mr.. Hitchcock says frankly that he
not only did not recommend it to con-
gress, but he was opposed to it's en-
actment.

WOMEN ARE TRAMPLED ON
When They Attempt to Break Up
Lloyd George Meeting.

London, Sept. 23.-Suffragettes who
attempted to break up a meeting adj
dressed by David Lloyd-George, chan
cellor of the e~xchequer, at Llanys-
tumdwy, Wales, were roughly handled,
trampled on and forced to seek pro-
lection in neighboring cottages. Their
assailants were Welsh residents, who
resented their course.
The Welsh suffragettes had asked
that the demonstration, attended by
several cabinet members and sew
eral Welsh members of parliament,
should not be interrupted, but English
supporters of the cause ignored this
and sent thither a party of their fol
lowers.
The chancellor hardly had begun to
speak when the familiar cry of votes
for women was heard.

loot in broad daylight from the jewel
ry store of George Richman, Ill Sec

Just across the street services were
going on in the Reformed Episcopal
Dutch church and scores of people
were passing up and down the thor
cughfare, yet SO rapidly was the rob-
berry committed that no one noticed
anything unusual.
Woman Is Leader.
Richman was in his shop stocking
his window with a display of jewelry.
The safe was open and a number of
trays of diamond rings and jewelry
left for repair were lying on a shelf
just back of the counter. An automO-
bile bearing two men in the back seat
and a woman who seemed to be di-
recting the chauffeur, with the driver
on the front seat, stopped AT a door be-
low Richman's store. A we'll dressed
man entered and gave the jeWeler a
dirty watch chain to be cleaned.
Richman went to a brush wheel in
the back of the store to clean it. The
stranger followed him and, is the
teweler bent over the wheel, a revol-
yer was jabbed into his ribs and he
was ordered to "shut up and be quick
about it."
Gag and Bind S~hopkeeper.
A towel was bound across his
mouth, his hands and feet were tied
with pieces of wire and with his own
belt. Then he was laid helpless be-
hind. a counter while another man en-
tered and the pair took 1926 in cash
in the safe and more than $4,000
worth of diamond rings and pendants,
a number of which had been left for
repair by their owners.
During the robbery the woman oc-
cUpant of the machine did not leave
it, but kept up an animated %cOnversa-
ton with the chauffeur. Two custom
.ers entered the store just as the rob
bers were leaving, but thought moth
ing of them until they found Richman
bound and gagged.
