same motion the association vigorously
opposed any change in this regulation.
The motion was carried unanimously,
several members who are automoblists,
voting in favor of it.
A. j. Driscoll made a motion asking
for a wider distribution of the street
traffic regulations by the policemen. The
motion was carried. 1t was suggested
that copies of the regulations should be
put in all places where beginners were
taught motor driving so they would
learn the regulations at the same time
they learned how to run machine.
Work Is Postponed.
Bristow Adams. chairman of the COM
mittee on the children's auxiliary of the
association, advised that the formal
work of organizing this branch be post
poned until next fall. it had not been
found practicable to do the work before
schools were dismissed and large num-
bers of children sent away for their va
cations. The association took favorable
action on Mr.. Bristow's suggestion
That fewer accidents in comparison
have occurred under the new traffic reg
ulations than under the old ones, was
reported ny NIL DiiSCoil, SHdH VI tIle
committee on statistics. Mr.. Driscoll re-
ceived this information from Maj. Rich
ard Sylvester, chief of police.
The law requiring the carrying of license
numbers on all vehicles was urged for
stricter enforcement by DR.. Edgar d.
| Thompson w. f. Sanford reported that
no formal work had been done by the
committee on education. but that plans
| were being made for an active campaign
in this direction.
Tittman Made Director.
Charles T. Tittman was elected as a
member of the board of directors, this
completing the membership of that body.
Several plans for giving wider publicity
to the street safety campaign were dis
cussed and the association approved the
plans outlined.
James M. Wood reported on the en-
forcement of the dog-muZZling law.
That the movement for street safety
as a citizens movement was spreading
rapidly and steadily throughout the en-
tire country was stated by q. A. Lyon,
| jr., who said reports of such movements
| were to be seen in newspapers in all
sections of the country.
Numerous plans for making the streets
safer and for obtaining more thorough
cooperation on the part of all citizens
were discussed informally. The report
| of the treasurer, Mr.. Thompson showed
| the association to be i'll good finaciaI
condition.

ALBANY, N. Y, Jan. 17.--7
Governor Sulzer announced this
afternoon that he had pardoned
Foulke Brandt. former valet Of
Mortimer l.. Schiff, who was SEM
fenced to serve so years in Dan
nemora prison.
Brandt was convicted on a
technical burglary charge five
years ago. He was alleged TO
have stolen few trifling arti-
cles of jewelry from the Schiff
home. At his trial he put in no
defense and the 30-year sentence
followed.
The severity of the sentence
and the fact that Brandt made
no effort to clear himself OF
Schiff's charges created wide
comment.
One year ago Brandt attempted
to effect his release through
habeas corpus proceedings, al
leging that the severity of his
sentence was not in keeping with

MOTHERS
PENSION
BILL UP
REPRESENTATIVES, CORKERY
AND BROWNE INTRODUCE
MEASURE BEFORE HOUSE
ADVOCATES CONFIDENT
THAT 1T WILL PASS.

OLYMPIA, Wash, Jan. H.
Advocates of the mothers pen
sion are today rejoicing through
out the state following the intro
duction of two separate bills in
the Legislature providing for the
care of mothers.
To Representative Corkery of
Spokane and Browne of Kittitas
belong the honors for launching
the campaign for the pension.
Corkery's bill provides for a pen
sion of $15 month to mothers
for each child where there is no
breadwinner in the household
and gives the superior Judge dis
cretionary power in awarding the
money.
Representative Browne Iro-
poses $40 for the first child and
50 for each additional child, the
juvenile court to have jurisdic-
ton in ordering the pension.
While both these bills are diff
ferent, each is intended for the
same purpose, namely to provide
for poor mothers of this state.
The mothers pension fight
started by the Scripps papers in
this state, seem to be taking a
deep hold and everybody is try
ing to get on the bandwagon.
There does not seem to be any
real organized opposition to the
measure and an early passage of
the proposition is looked upon
with favor among the legislators.

MEDFORD, Ore, Jan.

MEDFORD, Ore, Jan. II. -
Lounsberry came here several
years ago, purchased tract OF
land and set it out to fruit trees.
He had established a good credit
at the banks and always met his
obligations, lived quietly and was
well thought of.
He had been a railroad mail
clerk before becoming an orchard
list. At the time of his capture he
was supposed to be east on land
business and his arrest was great
shock to his friends.

Banked Coin in
Shoe-Burglar
Didn't Look

M. j. Sweeney formed the habit
early in life of stuffing his money
into the toes of his shoes when he
retired for the night, and this
may be the reason why A. ]. Kel-
ley. accused of burglarizing the
Fawcett hotel, did not find all of
Sweeney's treasure.
Kelley is on trial today before
Judge Clifford. He smiled grimly
as Sweeney related the story of
the alleged burglary of his room.
Il woke up in the middle of
the night" said Sweeney on the
stand. Somebody dressed in his
underclothes was going through
the pockets of my pants hanging
on the wall. 1t turned out to be
Kelley, but most of my money was
in my shoes that night"

May End the Feud.
Outsiders think that the trial
will end the feud, if the men who
did the killing are convicted. But
the clansmen know better. A
jury could as easily change the
ordained courses of the stars or
regulate the tides as quiet the
elemental passions of the VEN
delta, that run on from genera
ton to generation, with their
heritage of hate from long for
gotten causes.
And little Hargis? He ac-
cepts his heritage, just as lie
accepts his resemblance TO
his father, and as he accepts
his religion and the politics
OF the Callahan cian.
~ expect to get even for
all this some day." he says,
with a snap of his jaw and
a cold, straight look from
his oldish, steel-gray eyes.
And Hargis can already shoot
straight!
Tracked Down Slayers

lawyers for the prosecution, sits
Mrs. Lillian Callahan Gross, a

a graduate of woman's college.
1t was she who, to track down
her fathers slayers, RODE through
the mountains day and night for
two weeks after Ed Callahan was
killed.
.. And she is fighting to
break the spell of Destiny
that has already placed its
claim upon the child, her
brother.
