DENIES AID TO BRITISH

Dr. James Brown Scott. who is identi-
fed with the Carnegie Feace Foundation
and was Solicitor for the State Depart
quired yesterday to tell the Senate COM
mittee on Interoceanic Canals all about
the work of the peace foundation. Sena-
tor O'Gorman, Senator Bristow, and Sen
ator Borah Quizzed DR.. Scott.
Chairman O'Gorman finally asked him
who he believed had done most to ad-
vance the cause of international peace.
DIR. Scott replied that distinguished
New Yorker, named Jonn Jay. of Revo-
lutionary fame, had been the original
peace promoter.
but he belonged to another genera
tion," said Senator O'Gorman. will you
give US the name of some persons among
the Hving?"
Evidently members of the committee
thought that DIR. Scott would put Andrew
Carnegie in that class. but they were
disappointed. On being pressed. the wit
ness declared he believed Senator Elihu
Root had carried off the palm, and that
men who are engaged in the international
peace movement shared his views. Sena-
tor O'Gorman inquired whether DR.. Scott
believed Mr.. Root had done more for
done, and DR.. Scott replied that he did
so believe.
Questioned About Speech.
The questioning of DR.. Scott took
a wide range. Senator OGorman tried
to wiring an admission that the inter
ference of the Carnegie Peace Founda-
ton in the negotiations between the
United States and Great Britain had
embarrassed Secretary Knox at a crit
ical point in the negotiations and at
a time when Mr.. Knox was about to
settle the canal tolls controversy by
diplomatic methods.
Senator OGorman pointed out that
Senator Roots speech in the Senate In
favor of his bill for the repeal of the
tolls exemption clause came at time
when its effect was to strengthen the
hand of Great Britain. Mr.. O'Gorman
tried to elicit admissions from the wit
ness tending to prove that Senator
Root and the Carnegie Peace Founda-
ton had worked together to upset the
plan of the State Department for set
Ting the matter by diplomatic nego-
tiations. Senator Bristow pursued the
same line of questioning.

Suit against the A. T. & S. F.

NJ. C. Spicer, a we'll known at
torney of this town, has filed in
the District Court a suit against
the A, T. & S. F. Railway Co.,
for the sum of SIS, 900 damages, in
behalf of Mrs. G. W. Sawyer, of
Trinidad, Colo.
She was put off Santa Fe train
No. 2 at Ration, July q, 1918, by
a conductor, who asserted she had
not paid her fare, and turned over
to the police there; but afterward
allowed to go on to Trinidad, COL,
on the same train without paying
additional fare are allegations of
M. c. Spicer, of Belen, attorney
for Mrs, G. W. Sawyer, an elderly
woman, in a suit brought against
the A., T. & S. F. Railway Co. in
the district court. A total judg-
ment of $5,0 is prayed; So, 900
for exemplary damages.
Mrs. Sawyer bought a ticket in
Albuquerque to Trinidad and
boarded train No. 2, and the con-
ductor took her ticket as the train
was leaving Albuquerque, accord
ing to the complaint. When the
train passed Las Vegas another
conductor asked for her ticket,
she said. She told him she had
given it to the other conductor,
and he ordered her to get off at
the next station, saying that an
officer would be there to meet her,
according to the complaint.
She was forcibly put off at Ra-
ton and three policemen took her
in custody, holding her for ten
minutes, she said. Then she was
ordered to get aboard the same
train, which she did, and proceed
ed to Trinidad without paying ad-
ditional fare, she alleges.
Mr.. Spicer is confident of win.
ming this suit, and he believes
there will be no obstacles as there
were about fifty people in the cal
who heard the abusive language
of the conductor in ejecting her
from the train. Mrs. Sawyer is
the mother-in-la of Mr.. Curt
Goebel, of this town, and we'll tc

WIN ELECTIONS
In the City Elections Held at
Albuquerque and Santa Fe
Republicans were Elected
After a Very Hard Contest

At the recent election for city
officers in several cities Of New
Mexico, the Republicans have
proved to be the victors. A re-
sumen of said elections can be
described as follows:
Albuquerque: D. II. Boatright,
Republican, won over D. X. 3.
Sellers, Democrat, by q majority
of lao votes; the rest of the Re-
publican ticket was elected, with
the exception of counciimen in
the 3rd and 4th wards, where
tho Democrats elected their men.
The election was hotly contested
from start to finish, both parties
putting up a strong fight to the
last minute
Santa Fe: William G, Sargent,
Republican, won over r. Liberato
Baca, Fusionist, by a majority Of
322 votes, and the whole Repub-
lican ticket was elected by large
majorities. Here the contest was
also a hot one. 1t is said that
they will start a petition for q call
for prohibition election in the
Old Capital.
Gallup: The Republicans car
ried this city also. P. Kettner be-
ing elected by good majority.
and carrying also a bond issue Of
100000 for city improvements.
Election very quiet.
Las Vegas: Eugenio Romero
defeated N. c. de Baca BY 159
votes, Mr.. Romero being a Re-
publican; and in E. Las Vegas,
DR.. H. NJ. Smith was the unop-
posed candidate in the Fusion
ticket, NTH only 125 votes cast,
the smallest vote ever registered
there.
Roswell: This city went Demo-
cratic, j. Smith being elected
mayor without opposition, with g
straight Democratic ticket behind
him.
Such was the result of the last
elections of more Importance in
the principal cities of the state.
The weather was rainy in Albu-
querque, Roswell, Santa Fe and
other, places.
The battle over, all seem to be
in very good terms to cooperate
with the newly elected officers, in
order to work for the progress of
their respective communities, and
it is hoped everywhere public
confidence will back the efforts Of
their officers to help make this
state one of the best governed of
the Union.

INSPECTION OF

Belen, N. M, April 8. State
Superintendent Alvan N. White

the public schools of Valencia

four days visited dtWenty-six build
ings, including all rooms in the
Rio Grande valley. A few schools
in the western part of the county
he will inspect later.
Mr., White learned that County
Superintendent ,Saturnino Baca is
improving the buildings and
school grounds of Valencia as we'll
as the educational conditions. A
tWo-room building is to be put up
at Los Lentes. The directors Sc
lected the site, consisting of one
acre, while Mr.. White was there.
Another two-room building will
be built at El Bosque to replace
the old one-room structure. A
one-room building at Valencia will
replace the old one-room school.
The site for the Valencir school is
near the church.

The Bluewater district will vote
So, 500 bonds for a three-room
building, Mr.. White said, and ad-
ditJons of one room will be made

one-room buildings. The. Sebo-
yeta district has not yet decided
whether to erect a one or two
room building in the place of the
present one-room adobe. How
ever, that a new school will be
built, is certain.
All new buildings and additions
will be modern from a school
architectural standpoint, we'll

tary, Mr.. White. Several other
buildings are to be remodeled.
All this work is to be done next
summer, so the buildings will be
ready for occupancy at the open

is being raised and the county will
soon have as fine a body of teach
ers as any county in the state.

STRESS is being laid upon the

prised to find such strong senti-
ment among patrons in favor of
their children learning English

same time the Spanish, fitting
future citizens to use both Ian
guages fuently.
Sentiment in the county is
strongly in favor of the establish
ment of a county high school, so
the pupils who graduate from the
grades may have the advantages
of higher education near home.
The question of establishing the
high school at Belen will be sub
mitted to a vote in May, and in
dications are that the proposition
will carry almost unanimously.
Additional courses then will be
added, such as typewriting, stem

splendid school here.
