English Movie Fans Do Not Greet
Wilson'S Picture With Much Acclaim

'clapping and cheering rolls forth from
stalls to gallery.
J~ellicoe is a Sphinx, the mystery
ADMIRAL" He has established a reputa-
ton for deeds and not words. In his
face is action, determination, light
ming decision, self-control and wis
dom.
Nowhere outside the great walls Of
the admiralty building in Whitehall
is anything known of J"ellicoe at pres
emf. Here the slender strings OF
wireless antennae swinging over the
building connect with the a~erials on
Jellicoe's ship Somewhere in the
North Sea- where he is waiting for
the Germans to come out; superln-
tending the naval blockade and al
ways adjusting the final twist Of pre-
~paredness which has kept England
from sharing the fate of Belgium,
Poland and Serbia.
Ordinary British folk VINO 90 to
movie theaterc and never share the
secrets of the admiralty wireless, have
learned to connect the name of Jelli-
zoe with the security they enjoy at
home. SO every time his face appears
they cheer it wildly.

noon while clearing away some blown
over trees in the roadway south Of

before he could get to phone to call

death before help could reach him.
He is reported weak today from loss
OF blood but will come out all right
unless unlocked for complications de

AIDS WOMEN OF PORTO RICO
House Adopts Suffrage Amendment
introduced by Republican Leader
Mann by 60 to 81.

Washington, May 23.-By a vote of
60 to 81 the house, in the committee of
the whole. adopted an amendment to
grant suffrage to tho women of Porto
Rico. 1t was proposed by Republican
Leader Mann.
Mr.. Mann explained that he offered
the amendment because of the re-
quirements of the bill which would
make it impossible for any person who
did not read either Spanish or English
or pay SO taxes annually to vote
There are many women in Porto
Rico who read both Spanish and Eng.
lish and pay more than SO annual
taxes, and it would be unfair to deny
them the vote" said he.

SMALL JURY IS VALID
SUPREME COURT HANDS DOWN
DECISION AT WASHINGTON.
Corporation Law of Wisconsin Held
Invalid by High Tribunal-Recess
Taken Until June 5.

Washington, May 23.-Juries of less
than twelve men when required by
common law and verdicts by less
than the entire jury, when provided
for by state law are valid in cases,
even those arising under federal law,
the Supreme court held.
An attempt had been made by rail-
roads, sued for damages under the
federal employers liability law to
prove such juries Snd verdicts did not
meet the requirements Of the seventh
amendment to the federal Constitu-
tion-that cases at common law
should be tried by jury.
The decision upheld the Minnesota
law permitting five-sixths of jury to
return a verdict after being out IL
hours and a Virginia statute authoriZ-
ing trials before seven Jurors. Two
judgments against railroads were af-
flrmed.
The action Of the federal district
court for northern Texas In dismiss
ing for want of Jurisdiction the suit OF
the Bankers Trust company for re-
ceiver for the Texas & Pacific Rail-
way company and the New Orleans
Pacific Railway company, and for the
foreclosure of a second mortgage on
the two roads, was affirmed by the
Supreme court.
The Supreme court annulled as un-
constitutional the Wisconsin statute
making it the duty of state officials to
revoke the license to do business in
the state of any foreign corporation
which shall remove into any federal
court any action against 1t by any
citizen of the state upon any claim
or cause Of action arising within the
state.
Justice Reynolds, in delivering the
unanimous decision of the court, held
that it was enough to say that 1t was
impossible for a state to legislate
to deprive a foreign corporation doing
both intrastate and interstate com
merce of the privilege Of removing
| cases to the federal courts"
The court took a recess rltil June
5, announcing that the last decision
day, until next fall, will be June ~
unless the business of the court al
that time makes advisable later day
