BOSE fORESEES BIG

iowa University Professor Says
Race Is Eligible to Enter
United States.

Washington. Feb. 16.-Predictions OF
the "dercest revolution the world ever
has known" IL the British government
approves the Hindu exclusion policies
of its colonies, were made before the
House immigration committee by DR..
Sudhindra Bose, a professor In the
University OF Iowa, during an argu-
ment in which he contended that Hin
dus were an "Aryan people entitled to
naturalization here"
He maintained that II Hindus were
to be excluded here a "~gentlemen's
agreement must be made between the
United States and the British Indian
government to restrict the immigra-
ton.
"A special law excluding the Hindus
would humiliate US in the eyes Of the
world. 1t is not necessary.
I'VE are a great class Of British sub
jects," said Bose, and are entitled to
the rights of such a class. International
complications may follow an attempt
to exclude u.s."
The colonies Of Great Britain are
excluding Hindus," observed Chairman
Burnett. ,
THE central government in England
has not Endorsed such action" replied
DIR. Bose. IF 1t does, it will p~recipltate
the fiercest revolution the world has
eve known. The people Of India are
awakening and If they are to remain
a part of the British empire, something
must be done; some solution Of this
problem arrived at which is more reas-
enable than any yet suggested"

so guests assembled here yesterday for
the wedding OF George Dempster md
Miss Ruth Conklin, and but 10 minutes
before the time set for the ceremony
the groom suffered an attack of
epilepsy and the nuptials were in
definitely postponed. 1t Is said the
mother and bride-elect favored but a

position that 1t would be entirely
proper to proceed with arrangements
after Mr.. Dempster had recovered from
his attack. .#Fas y.
The young woman's father objected
to the welding proceeding after the
showing as to the intended BRIDE
groom's physical affliction. Rev. j.
A. Campbell, of the United
Evangelical church, who was present
to perform the ceremony, also urged an
indefinite postponement. .s..
Mrs. Conklin, who is a famous cook
and hospitable entertainer, would not
consent to have the guests depart until
they had been RECALLED by the liberal
supply Of edibles which had been pre-
pared. The guests, therefore. pro-
ceeded with this part of the program
in the best spirit hat could be
mustered with the bride-elect in tears
down stairs and the intended BRIDE
groom in an unconscious condition.
Following the dinner the members Of
the company selected their respective
presents from the general display and
took them back with them.
Mr.. and Mrs. c.. II. Conklin are
pioneer residents Of this place. Last
week their daughter, Ruth, 16 years Of
age, secured consent to marry George
Dempster, % years of age. They
became acquainted last summer when
Dempster was working here with
County Engineer Taylor's crew.
Dempster and Miss Conklin went to
Sioux City together one day last week
and when they returned told various
friends that they were married. In
vitations appearing later for the home
wedding yesterday indicated that the
previous report was intended IS a
Joke.
