To all contestants. my first advice
is Read the rules of the contest
carefully. Then IL you wish further
Information we'll be glad to give 1t
to you.
Many of you have written. asking
the question why Mr.. Arthur Elder,
our artist, could not give information
60 outside friends as to the correct
answers to the pictures he draws.
This is the reason why he cannot.
Because three officials of the Star
each select twenty proverbs. 1 am
one of the three. The other two
officials do not know what proverbs
I have selected, neither do / know
which ones they have selected. l go
to Mr.. Elder and say, for instance,
draw me picture of man looking
down q we'll: woman standing by
with bucket in her hand. The man
says: Gee, there's not drop of
water in the pesky WE'LL The woman
says: Land sakes, what'll we do
without water?' The owl says:
Hoo! Tough luck" Mr.. Elder
sketches the picture, shows 1t to me
and 1 approve 1t or have 1t changed
to suit me. The other two officials
who have selected proverbs will do
the same. Now, you see, Mr.. Elder
will have to guess just as hard as
you do in order to arrive at the
proper solution of the picture he
draws. My list of answers Is sealed
in an envelope. Each of the other
two that select are sealed separately.

Expert on Latin-Amerioa Dep
recates Intervention-'Cheap-
er to Pay IndemnIties.'

WORCESTER, Mass. Nov. 20
Intervention should not even be
thought of by the United States" de-
clared DIR. N. o. Winter, author Of
several books on Mexico, in address,
ing the Clark University conference
on Latin-America today, on the
fundamental causes of the present in
surrection in Mexico.
From a standpoint of dollars and
cents" he added, cit would be cheaper
for Uncle Sam to reimburse all losses
sustained by Americans than to incur
the expense that Intervention would
involve.
"The present disturbed condition in
Mexico is probably the final transit
ton, the dawn of q new era. The par
oxysms now shaking the country. in
rebellions and treacheries mean the
recovery of Mexico ultimately to
peace and prosperity. A strong man
| must arise. leader of enough force
of character to draw the people to
him and awe any opposing chieftaln
who may wish to create trouble for
his own personal ACKNOWLEDGMENT"
Mr.. Winter attributed present con-
ditions to past methods of govern
ment in Mexico, to the great estates
held by the wealthy and to the sys-
tenn of peonage. He said that nearly
everything complained of by the
Mexicans themselves and criticised
by people of other nations "can be
traced either to heredity or environ
ment"
An exposition of the point OF view
of the Constitutionalists opposing
President Huerta in Mexico was given
at the Clark University conference on
Latin-America today by Luis Ca
brera, former leader OF the Mexican
House of Representatives.

P|NCHOT REPORT
WINS FIRST POINT
Victory for Federal Control in
Conservation Now Seems
Assured.

WASHINGTON. Nov. 2o.-victory
for the advocates of strict federal con-
troll of water power grants was prac-
tically assured today In the National
Conservation Congress. when the RESI-
buttons committee determined that
the congress yesterday had taken the
water power question out of its hands.
The majority and minority reports
of the water power committee, the
latter fathered by Clifford Pinchot and
former Secretary of War Stimson, now
will be returned to the convention for
final disposition. The vote by States
yesterday on the preliminary report
caused champions of federal as op-
posed to State control to express con-
fdence that the Pinchot report would
be adopted.
A threatened break in the member
ship of the congress was averted
when the resolution committee ac-
cepted two resolutions from Dudley
G. wooten, of Washington State, ono
of the leaders in the States rights
movement One resolution would
direct the National Conservation
Congress at its next convention to
provide for an equal division of time
for waterway and forestry discussion
| Another would urge the organization
of State conservation congresses te
cooperate with the National Con-
| gress.,
| "I understand" said Mr.. Wooten
that some of the Arkansas delegates
have left the convention, but we have
lnot, and do not intend to. We realiz,
that we are in the minority, but be
] lieve that our resolutions will be &C
copied by the convention and that WI
will get a better hearing next time"

Between sessions Miss Gompers

AS O daughter of a member OF the
Presidents official family, she has, OF
course, entire to all semi-ofhctal func-
TONS But she steadfastly refuses

Agnes goes out a lot more than l.
We-my mother and I-get invita-

CHANCELLOR BILL
IS HELD ILLEGAL
Justice Swayze Calls New Jer-
sey Measure Unconstitu-
tIonaI After Hearing.

IN an opinion rendered last night
before Prosecutor Robert S. Huds-
peth. of Hudson county, and Joseph
NJ. Noonan, also of Hudson county,
representing Sheriff N. Peter Wedin,
Justice Francis ]. Swayze declared
the chancellor jury bill unconstitu-
tional and stated he would sign a
| judgment to draw juries under the
Fielder act. Prosecutor Hudspeth an
nounced that he would Immediately
get In communication with Attorney
General Edmund Wilson and ask him
to take care of the peoples interest.
Justice Swayze's opinion, In part,
follows:
"GenLlemen-1 will decide this case
Immediately. There is no use in hold
ing it up, as it will probably go to
the Court of Errors and Appeals and
you naturally want 1t to get there as
quickly as possible.
"The government under which we
are governed is that of the Consti-
| tuition Of 1874, which states that the
| legislative power shall be vested in
Senate and General Assembly; the
executive power in the Governor, and
the judicial power in the Court of
Errors and Appeals and other courts
enumerated. Every citizen In the
State ought to rely on the govern
ment being carried out as prescribed
In that Constitution.
''The Importance of this in this State
is even greater than in Massachu-
sets, for the conditions are peculiar,
as we have an equal representation
In the Senate by counties, and each
county, even though small and
sparsely settled, has the right to rely

the Senate. I do not know whether
this Is right or not, but it is the law.
Hudson and Essex counties might say
they want to be ruled by men. not by
land. If an act can be accepted by
referendum by majority of the votes
cast, regardless of the representation
in the Senate of the smaller counties,
1t does not have the same effect the
Constitution calls for. Hudson and
Essex could outvote eleven smaller
counties that could he named.

come effective on the fourth Tuesday
of November. cannot understand
when an act Is imperative IL 1t Is

have no right to abdicate the power of

act"
The matter was brought before JUS
tice Swayze. by an application of
Prosecutor Hudspeth for writ of
certiorari to set aside the order to
Sheriff wedin to draw the December
term Grand Jury under the Fielder
act. This order was Issued by Justice
Swayze. and, 1t is presumed, was
solely for the purpose of having the
constitutionality Of the chancellor bill
settled at as early date as possible.
