crisis has passed. Carranza's g attitude
now one OF cooperation and
friendliness-gives tremendous salts

danger still lives. Three problems
are yet to be solved:
Withdrawal of the punitive ex-

back hcme, and the border under
the protection OF strong force of
regular soldiers. This military move
ment will be FASTENED by evidence
of determination shown by Carranza
troops to clean up northern Mexico.
Tomorrow the president and his
cabinet will take up this phase of
tthe question. II is known the mill
tary authorities believe there is no
further reason why the punitive ex-
pedition should remain in Mexico
at least further south than a patrol
zone along the border itself. II is
known further that these author
tiles feel II would be unnecessary
and impractical to retain the differ
ent militia organizations on the in
ternatlonal line for patrol duty long.
/ or than three or four months AZ the
most--or not so long II the situation

The army probably will ask for
more regular soldiers-three or four
increments, made possible under the
new army bill-and it is likely the
president and his advisers will fol.
low the army's recommendation.

Within a few days the militiamen
will be refitted with the olive drah

wooden uniforms which added 10 the
discomfort of the intense heat.
A rife range is being prepared on

ORDINANCE
COURT IS
FAVORED
Gillespie Wants Sepa-
rate Tribunal For
Traffic ViOlatOrs
WORKS WE'LL
IN NEW YORK

An ordinance court, where viola
tors OF traffic and other city laws
can be dealt with, is favored by
Police Commissioner John Gillespie.
The commissioner would have
his officers make direct service OF
summons on violators. instead Of
going through the uncertain formal.
ity OF making complaints and then
obtaining service on the speed flends
and careless drivers.
II is stated on good authority that
out of every so complaints made by
the police against traffic violators.
only 10 on an average are actually
brought into court and fined. AL
dermen and other city officials
spend much OF their time trying TO
keep their automobilist friends out
OF trouble.
In several OF the larger cities
traffic and ordinance courts have
been established. The work OF
handling ordinance complaints is ex-
pedited in these courts. There Is
a fixed scale of fines for each class
OF ordinance violations. Each sue
ceeding time an offender is brought
before the court, he is more severe
ly dealt with. Offenders are not al
lowed TO beg off, nor can influential
friends intercede for them. In this
way motorists especially are taught
a more strict observance Of regula'
tions that are enacted for the pro
lection OF the general public.
"In New York many cases are
handled each day in the ordinance
court" said Commissioner Gillespie
The idea OF having the officer
serve the summons on the violator
directly, is a great time.saver all
the way around.
IF a man violates a traflc ordi
nance he knows that IL he is caught
1t will cost him some money Each
| day the list of cases, together with
the name and address OF the often
der and the amount OF fine paid Is
! published in the newspapers.
II do not think that business
man should be penalized by being
made to wait around in a crowded
court room for several hours before
! his case is called. rubbing elbow :
with crooks. panhandlers, and dis
orderlies OF both sexes The trafiic
violator Is not criminal, and his
case should not he handled in the
criminal court.
"It would require a third recorder
to handle ordinance cases. but |
think there would be enough work
TO keep him busy The extra amount
in fines collected would more than
pay his salary each year"
Aid. John c. Lodge favors Com
missioner Gillespie's suggestion for
an ordinance court.
we ought to have some more di-
rect method of dealing with traffic
violators," declared Aid Lodge.
Our streets are becoming so crowd
ed that the strictest regulation Is
needed to avoid accidents. The
speed fend and the careless driver
deserve no sympathy. and they
should be punished as heavily as
possible"

NO DOPE ON TOURNEY
Dark Horses Predominant in "Y'
Mixed Doubles Tennis Play.

Dark horses" will probably be the
rule and not the exception in Topeka's
first mixed doubles tourney, which
the Central Y. M. C. A. is giving on its
courts at Tenth and Lane streets.
No one knows just which combina-
lions are the strongest. The tactics of
mixed doubles are SO different from
those of ordinary doubles that many
combinations of good individual play
ers fail to make good teams"
One of the strongest teams entered
to date is that of Miss Edna Hopkins
and Robert Shoemaker. Shoemaker
is admittedly the class of Topeka in
the court game. Miss Hopkins learned
her tennies in the east and has wit
messed several national championships
and important Journeys in that section.
She plays with a racquet selected for
her by ex-champion r. Norris Will
Hams
The drawings for first round
matches will be announced in the noon
edition of tomorrow's State journal.
The first matches will be held at 4
o'clock tomorrow afternoon. Chairs
for spectators and ice water have been
provided and the courts are in the
pink of condition.
Entries for the tourney may be
made up till noon Wednesday at the
