overiapped IN place of being scanned

and under-arm seams TO be sewed
up. although the sleeves are stitched

waist line continues TO be much worn

HOUSE HAS MADE GREAT
PROGRESS, SAYS CLARK


We desired TO obtain for each men,
Der OF congress absolute freedom OF
action, uncoerced from any source.
uncontrolled by any political machine
or political boss.
legislation and progressive action IL
the political machine and the political
caucus that strives 70 take away per-
sonal responsibility and to make IL
impossible fer the citizen 10 locate
the cause OF failure of legislative ac-
ton. The Progressive Republicans
have sought TO eliminate partisan
ship whenever II was possible TO do
so.
To my mind the most important
part of the past session has been the
.clear.cut issue developing out of the
secret caucus. The fight OF the Pro-
gressive Republicans has been TO
muke such action Impossible. We
realize that honest men may honestly
disagree as TO any concrete PROPOSE
ton OF legislation. What We seek TO
bring about Is an absolutely unco-
creed freedom OF action that will per-
nit every man to vote the dictates OF
his own conscience. and In the ag-
gregate, we will then always get the
unhampered and unbiased judgment
OF a majority. The main difference
between the Progressive Republicans
and the progressive Democrats Is that
Progressive Republicans have thrown
the control by caucus action and the
Democratic progressives have not
made that much progress.

AS "GYP THE BLOOD"

The Detroit police thought for a
moment, Saturday afternoon, that
they might have "Gyp. the Blood"
wanted in connection with the killing
of Herman Rosenthal, in New York, a
couple of weeks ago. A man named
Birch, hailing. from New York, spotted
a man he thought was the fugitive on
the Michigan Central train from the
east. The traveller told an immigra-
ton officer in Windsor Of his sus-
picions and the officer notified the
Detroit police TO meet the train on
its arrival in Detroit
Detective VIM. Good met the train
and took the suspect and companion
TO the Central station. Birch also ac-
companied the detective and his pGts'
orers to police headquarters. The
suspects were questioned closely, with
the result that they were quickly re-
leased. proving beyond q shadow Of
doubt that they were In no way con-
nected with the New York tragedy.
The man thought to be "Gyp the
Blood" was a tailor from Hamilton,
Ont, while the other man was from
Syracuse, N, ". Both were coming to
windsor to attend the races, next
week
Birch was disappointed In his mis-
take i'm regard 10 the idenity OF the
man believed to=be@6yp the
Blood" as he says he has seen the
fugitive a number of times and was
sure he had "lamped" the right man.
