Universal military training was
urged Yesterday at the annual meeting
of the Sons Of the Revolution in the
State of New York, held in Fraunces's
Tavern. It was also suggested that

that no one be eligible for membership

military service. A committee is to be

a rifle club.
William B. Cragin, a broker, whose
four sons have served in the National
Guard. said that he doubted If any Of
them would reenlist. The National
Guard had received its death blow, he
said. and the only salvation of the ma
ton was universal military training.
He thought the training should begin

U. S. CAPTURES DYE SECRETS
American Chemists Now Supply All of
Cheaper COlors

Washington, Dec. 4.-American pro-
ducton of dyestuffs has progressed to
the point where the chemists have lit
tie difficulty in meeting the needs Of
this country for cheaper colors. The
chemists already are laying plans to
branch out into other and wider dye

come from common coal tar products.

JERSEYS AUTO
LAWS UPHELD
Tax to Maintain Roads
Constitutional, Says Fed
eral Supreme Court

Washington, Dec. New Jerseys
automobile license laws, which raise
revenue for road maintenance by tax
ing motor cars, were sustained as con-
stitutional by the Supreme Court to-
day.
An appeal had been taken by Frank
J. Kane, of New York, convicted OF
violating the laws. Although the Su
preme Court in 1915 had upheld similar
motor license laws in Maryland, Kane
contended that the courts opinion in
the Maryland case merely upheld a
law not designed for revenue purposes
and that the New Jersey laws were
void as discriminatory and a state bur-
den upon interstate commerce.
The request Of British claimants Of
the steamer Appam. row a German
prize at Newport News, to expedite
hearing Of the case testing the vessels
possession was granted by the court,
which set January S for argument.
The court refused earlier hearing OF
a suit against an Austrian shipping
line involving the right Of foreign citi-
zens to enforce in American courts con-
tracts suspended by belligerent trad
ing with the enemy" DEGREES.
international Questions Raised
In both cases novel and important
questions of international law, Ameri-
can treaty obligations and diplomatic
relations resulting from the European
war are before the Supreme Court for
final decision.
In revoking the suspension by Dis
trict Judge Killits, Of Ohio, Of SEN
tence upon James J. Henshan, of To-
ledo, convicted of bank embezzlement,
the court decided that Federal judges
do not possess inherent power to sus-
pend indefinitely the execution of GRIM
inal sentences imposed in their respec-
tive courts.
"Of course, there is a discretion
lodged in every court" said Chief JUS
tice White in the opinion, "but that is
a judicial discretion, discretion to
enforce the law, not to refuse to en-
force it,"
The court aonsented to review dis
missal of a suit of union labor leader
against the Dollar Steamship Company,
of San Francisco, to decide whether the
contract labor law prohibits importa-
ton of Asiatic seamen for temporary
service on American coastwise vessels.
Commerce Decisions 10 Be Evidence
Interstate Commerce Commission
findings, the Supreme Court decided in
another case, are prima facie evidence
in Federal court suits on liability Of
railroads for discriminating against
coal producers in prorating car distri-
button. The court directed a new trial
in a claim for S2l ,094 damages by W. F.
Jacoby e. Co., of Philadelphia, against
the Pennsylvania.
Motions TO advance the case TO test
the constitutionality Of the Adamson
act we're received by the court, which
announced no decision, but probably
will announce one next Monday.
Among the hundreds of resolutions
introduced when Congress convened to-
day was a joint resolution by Repre-
sentative Hillard, of Colorado, pro-
posing government seizure, ownership
and operation of railroads that do not
discontinue by December 20 their suits
relative to the Adamson act and pro-
viding that courts that delay action on
suits longer than is necessary to order
their dismissal shall be abolished.
