LAW IS
unconstitutional
JUDGE HOOKE SAYS

Kansas City. Mo-. Nov. o.
The .Adamson eight-hour law
was held unconstituti onal here
today by Judge William q. Hook
in the United States distric,
court The court made it plain
that the decision was not based
on mature consideration of the
merits OF the case, but on expe
diency desired by all parties at
interest because of the necessity
of q final decision by the United
States supreme court before
January I, next, when the Law
goes into effect.
The legal moves in the process
OF sending the case direct to the
highest court Of the land wer.
somewhat involved from the Law
point OF view, but the lawyers
concerned rushed the matt r
through with a speed seldom
witnessed 10 courts of law. JUS,
what action Attorney Genera
Gregory would take remain. a
a closely guarded secret until
yesterday. when Frank Hager-
man. retained as special counsel
TO represent the govern ment in
the suit, suddenly set the ball
rolling by asking Judge Hook to
instruct the receiver for the
Missouri, Oklahoma and Gulf
railroad. complainant in an in
junction suit, to JOIN with the de
PENDANT in proceed ings which
would consign the case on its
merits to the United States su-
preme court.

PUNISHMENT FOR COWAROlY NEGLECT.

The South began disfranchis
ing the Negro in the early eigh.
ties and with the exception OF
West Virginia. Kentucky AND
Tennessee. every state in the
South has annuled the great 18th
Amendment " the Federal Con-
stitution. depriving millions of
citizens of the right to vote there
BY giving the Democratic party
40 votes in the Electoral College
that it makes no contest for be-
cause the votes of those states
are not effected in the least -,
the great issues involved in any
campaign, but are handed over
to the Democratic party without
question because of the narrow
ness, bigoty and prejudice of
that section against the Negro.

MEXICAN TROOPS BEGIN .r
NORTHWARD MOVEMENT
NEAR NACOZARI RAILROAD

Douglas, Ariz., June 2O.-MeXlcar
troops have begun nOrthWard Move
ment along the right of way OF the
Nacozar railroad, according to a
statement of refugees from the south
late today. A cavalry advance guard
of $50 reached CabuIlona. q miles
south of the border, last night, they
said. This, with the exception OF a
small garrison, ordinarily maintained
in Aqua Prieta, is the furthest north
Mexican soldiers have come IN eight
weeks. it is stated. '
At the same time, all or the troops
which have been stationed in Cuchu-
ia, 81 miles south of Douglas. were
reported to have moved north SIX
miles, to FrOnteras, where the infan-
try concentration camp OF Gen. Cat
les forces is located. g~i
It is estimated that there are ap-
proximately $500 men at Fronteras.
Civilians Organizing.
Reports from NacoZari stated that
100 civilian volunteers were organ
izing to join the army in the event OF
war, while many civilians from other
towns, including Montezuma, south OF
Nacozari, are prepared to march
north in case they are needed.
Railway equipment was gathered
today in Aqua Prieta and, according
TO reliable American sources, all OF
the families in the city were taken
northward presumably TO Nacozarl,
shortly before nightfall.

big scale might be undertaken, but in
the event Of general forward move
ment into Mexico, General Funston
explained that ne would ask immed-
lately for the remainder Of the 100, 900
guardsmen, called to service this
week. In none of the daily reports
that reached General Funston was
there news of fresh raids or other
border disturbances, but information
pointing to increasing unrest across
the border, and continued activity OF
troops of the de facto government was
received.
Successful in Avoiding Clash.
General Pershing has been success
full in avoiding a clash with the troops
that are drawn across his rear and
that covers his flank, notwithstand-
ing the fact that reports indicated
that he has continued to send scout
ing patrols some distance from his
line of communication, and toward the
south beyond Namiquipa. The Mexi-
can troops so far have contented
themselves with assuming such STRAIT
egic positions as toxive them some
advantage in the event they are order
ed to carry out General Trevino's
threat to attack General Pershing, if
he moved east or west, or south, or
in any but a northerly direction"
Army officers at Del Rio today were
inclined to believe that the Mexican
force that yesterday was moving to-
ward that town had been halted some
distance beyond the border, and that
probably the intention to tack the
place had been postponed or aban,
doned.
Conditions Not Improved.
Army officers here do not regard
the quiet prevailing all along the line
today as indicative Of any improved
conditions.
Reports continued to indicate that
the bandits are operating just south
of the International line, and that new
incursions may be expected at any
time. Reports brought here by civil
ians to army headquarters, and by
agents sent south into the country

iARMORED CRUISERS AND

GOING To MEXIC0

San Diego, CAL, June 20.-With the
departure from this port tonight and

of armored cruisers and a flotila of
torpedo boat destroyers, the greatest
naval demonstration in the history of
the Pacific fleet, with the west coast
of Mexico as its objective, will be

Not since the inception of the Mex
lean troubles has there been such a
powerful fleet sent to the western
Mexican littoral for patrol purposes,
nor has an American admiral ever
taken the precaution to so place his

he could effectively blockade every

ANOTHER EXPEDITION ~.
MEANS WAR, SAYS
GENERAL CARRAkZS

Ell Paso, Texas, June 20.-The Dor
der read the latest note to Gen. Car
rama today and then lapsed into the
expectant Waiting that has followed
each crisis in the Mexican situation
Speculation cealtered on the First
Chiefs reception of the Lansing doc
ument. Much in eerest was taken in a
telegram received this afternoon at
the Mexican con sulate from the off
cial news burea in Mexico City
This message read: .........
"Gen. Carranza addressing patri
otto crowd in Mexico City, declared
that there would be no war betweenn
the United States and Mexico unless
the United States should send fur.
Their punitive expedition into Mex
icO." ...
The address referred to is believed
to be the one mentioned in Monday
nights dispatch, i'll which Cen. Car
rama was quoted as saying he did
not wish war, but would not avoid it
to the sacrifice of national dignity.
In some quarters the telegram was
interpreted as forecasting back
down on the part of the first chief.
Quiet preparations on the part of
the officers of the Arizona district OF
the United States border patrol to
meet any possible developments, the
arrival here of increasing numbers Of
American refugees from south of the
international line, and repeated as
surances of both the Mexican sand
American officials that law-abiding
citizens of the opposite nationalities
need fear no harm, marked develop
ments in this section during the day.
One of the outstanding features of
the situation here was the faith e&.
pressed almost unanimously in the
promised protection to foreign resi-
dents of Sonora by Gen. Elias Gales
commander of the Carranza forces of
the state. 81" .t $. ts 90.
