ADAMSON LAW In
HANDS OF COURT
S0-CALLED EE&HT-HOUR LAW Is
UNCONSTITUTIONAL, RAIL
WAY ATTORNEYS CONTEND
Primary Purpose of Law was to Arbi-
trarily Regulate Private Contracts,
Say It's Opponents

WASHINGTON, Jan. 10-The suit in
which the railroads seek to have the
AdamSon law declared unconstitutional
was submitted to the supreme court
this afternoon, but it is not known
when decision will be reached.
Lack by congress- of authority to
enact what they termed railroad wage
legislation was the principal line Of
attack of the railroad attorneys.
They contended also that the law is
incapable of operation without judic-
ial interpretations, takes property with
out due process of law ,and interferes
with liberty of contract.
THE primary purpose of the act
was arbitrary regulation of private
contracts" Attorney Hines declared in
concluding an address of more than
three hours. 1T sets aside legitimate
methods, substituting an unworkable
speculative arrangement. It's classific-
atoms give benefit only to the four
brotherhoods who were demanding
the changes-all for the benefit of
special high paid class In all aspects
it is of unconstitutional bewildering
without relation to any
promotion of commerce"

16-year-old Kansas City lad, declare

mer bodyguard today.
Mrs. Mary Copley Thaw, who arriv-
ed today at her Beechwood Boulevard

sons whereabouts. 1t is believed he
has escaped temporarily, and that he
may be hidden in his mothers house.

Days-Expected to Detail Thorough
Iy War Aims of Ententes
BY ED L. KEEN

LONDON, Jan. 10.-The answer of
the Allies to President Wilson's peace
note may be handed to Ambassador
Sharp at Paris today, but will be with
held from publication several days on
account of the agreement providing
for its simultaneous publicity in Amer
ica and Europe.
The reply will probably detail thor

mission has been delayed while the
Allies exchanged views and arranged
the phraseology.

Greek Crown Council Willing to Con-

lJltimatum

ATHENS, Jan: 10:-It is reliably re-
ported that the Greek Crown council
favors an acceptance of the Allies de-
mands, which are stated in an ultima
tum requiring that all Greek military
forces be reduced, and that Reservists'
meeting be prohibited throughout all
the country north of Corinth; in addi-
ton to the release of all prisoners be-
longing to the army of ex-Premier
Veezeloist, and formal apology for
the attacks made upon the troops of
the entente powers. A new COM
mander has taken charge of the first
Grek army.

intending to surrender. The Pittsburg
police refused to arrest Thaw unless
an indictment was telegraphed by the
New York officials.
Detectives asserted that Thaw had
probably attacked other boys as it is
alleged he did Grump, who declares he
was whipped by Thaw, and that he
was probably seeking them.
The Thaw family has asked the pub
lie to withhold judgment until the
facts are known.
