AUTOISTS talk OF
court TEST OF
HARSH AUTO Law

CONTINUED From Page One)
ton that reprisals upon Delaware au-
tomobilists have been threatened by
Pennsylvania and New Jersey
According to well-dehned reports
among Wilmington motorists. certain
Automobiles in Pennsylvania and
New Jersey have served notice that
if enforcement of the Objectionable
Delaware statute does not cease by
September 1, the automobile laws Of
those States will be enforced to the
limit against Delawareans touring
within those States.
There is a report that could not be
verified today that the authorities of
Pennsylvania have intimated to Gov
ernor Miller, Attorney General VOL
colt or some other official that if Del
aware does not stop its arrests of
drivers of automobile trucks or other
cars owned by firms. partnerships or
corporations of that State. the recipro-
raj relations for motorists existing be-
tween the two States will be termi-
mated, the intimation being that Del
awareans would have to get a Penn
sylvania license to tour in Pennsyl-
vania.
Governor Miller and Attorney Cen
eral Wolcott have conferred about
the law passed by the last Legisla-
.ure, it is understood.
Now Il is reported that a test case
may be taken into the Superior Court
or the Court en- Banc, attacking the
constitutionality of the statute on the
ground that it is discriminatory. II is
contended that It is class legislation
on the ground that It exempts auto
mobiles owned by individuals of other
States, but requires those owned by
firms, partnerships or corporations
TO take out a Delaware license, and
that it also exempts dealers or manu-
racturers of other states. Whethe.
his will be sufficient ground to upset
he law remains 10 be seen.
Meanwhile the Delaware Automo-
hile Association, which is stirred up
ny G. fear that Pennsylvania. New Jer-
sey and Maryland may make war
upon Delaware Automobiles in re-
ialiation for the arrests of men from
those States in Wilmington. is con-
sidering q plan for erecting warning
signs at the state line OF each princi-
road leading to Wilmington, and
also of erecting such signs at the en-
frances to Wilmington for the infor
nation Of drivers Of motor trucks

PROVE YOUR CASE
OR QUIT TALKING
President of Navy League So Re-
sents Charges by Representa-
tive Tavenner.
OL.THOMPSON WANTS DECISION.
Member Of House to Ask Congress to
Investigate Organization and Re-
quire ]. P. Morgan to Testify

Prove your case or quit talking, "
is the gist of a letter written to Rep
resentative Clyde Tavenner, of I'LL
nois, by Col Robert III. Thompson,
president of the Navy League, and
made public at Washington yesterday.
Colonel Thompson's letter is an an
swer TO Representative Tavenners s
most recent statement that the mem
bership of the League is interested
more or less in the manufacture of
munitions of war.
Colonel Thompson, in addition to the
letter, made statement saying that
he is exceedingly tired" Of the Tayen-
ner charges, and that the charge is a
silly one, inasmuch as the League has
$4,000 members.
II do not see how any reasonable
person can believe such host of pa
triotic persons would lend themselves
to the Vaccinations of corrupt lob
by. The charge has been widely re-
peated, and believe the Navy League
should nail the lie once and for all by
a court decision as soon as possible
We had hoped that MIR. Bryan would
give us an opportunity to bring this
matter into court. but he has repudi-
ated statements attributed to him. /
feel sure tina if Mr. Tavenner has
really made the statement attributed
to him he will welcome this opportu-
nifty to bring them to a test in court,
as ] feel sure that no honorable man
would consent to make sIanderous
charges against an organization num-
being more than $4,000 earnest. pa
triotic fellow citizens unless he thor
oughly believed the charges true
Representative Tavenner. when
asked about Colonel Thompson's let
ter yesterday, replied that he would
introduce a resolution in the coming
session of Congress calling for an in
vestigation. He said that lnasmnch
as j. p Morgan is a member of the
League, he would endeaveor to have
him brought as a witness before a
congressional committee of inquiry
"As the Navy League IS unfriendly
to government manufacture OF war
paraphernalia, said Representative
Tavenner, 81 shall introduce a resolu-
tion to investigate the League, specif-
cally requiring j. p. Morgan and GER
tain other directors of the League
past and present, to testify under oath
whether they own stock in war traf-
ticking concerns which have drawn
down fat contracts from previous
army or navy appropriations.

Naval Academy Picks the
BackfieId for Her Team.

AS the Navy team leaves here to-
morrow for New York, where it will
play against the Military Academy on
Saturday, but two days remain foi
practice on the local grounds, and it is
realized by every one that much must
be done by Head Coach Ingram and
his assistants.
Owing to the poor showing of many
Of those tried in the backfield early in
the season and injuries to others, the
final combination for the backfield has
just been made and the players need
practice together. The set that will
start the game is composed of Craig at
quarter, Westphal and Davis at the
halves and Martin at full. Though
each has done good work, this combi-
nation has never started a match to-
gether and it is feared that they will
lack cohesion.
Every effort will be made in the re-
naming practices to secure their har-
monious action. A still more serious
fact is that the line this year has been
pierced by almost every opponent.
Notwithstanding the gloomy outlook.
the midshipmen profess confidence in
their team and are doing their best
by demonstrations and parades in the
Academy grounds to cheer the players.
