A Belated Squeal

Ii is not often that an effort
to besmirch the memory of the
states honOred dead would only
touch the funny bone of the gen
eral public, but that thing is
possible is proven by the fact
that John G.. Shafier's attempt
to blacken the name Of Senator
Thomas NJ. Patterson is regard
ell as irresistibly funny. The
contemplate fact that said John
c. Shuffer has virtually accused
Senator Patterson, one OF the
really great men that Colorado
has produced. OF deliberate and
intentional fraud is SO overshad-
owed by the ridiculous fact that
said Shaiier waited until after
the death OF Senator Patterson
to mention the fact that he has
not received n fair deal, that
even the lifelong friends of the
dead senator have greeted the
statements vi Shaiier with merri.
ment rather than Indignation.
Briefly, the facts are these:
John c. Shaffer of Chicago, own
er of the Rocky Mountain News,
began suit last week against the
estate OF Thomas NJ. Patterson,
Margaret Patterson Campbell,
daughter and sole heir, and Rich
ard Crawford Campell, on.in-law
OF the dead senator. He charges
that Patterson and Campbell by
false statements. induced him to

SHELVED IN HOUSE
Action Postponed on Measure at
Secretary Lansing's Request.

At the request of Secretary OF State
Lansing, the alien slackers bill was
shelved yesterday by the military af-
fairs committee of the House of Rep
resentatives. The committee, in Sc
cret session, decided to postpone ac-
ton of any kind on the bill designed
to call into American army service
aliens Of all countries, resident in
the United States.
The reason assigned was that Sec
rotary lansing Is now negotiating
with several countries that have OBJ
jected to allowing their subjects to
serve in the American armies. Sec
rotary Lansing told the committee
his negotiations would be completed
and everything ironed out before the
second increment OF the draft was
called out. His opinion was that
negotiation would serve better than
legislation.
The Military Affairs committee may
take up the question again in De-
cember. Meantime, Chairman Bur-
nett, Of the immigration committee.
plans to make another effort to get
the alien slackers bill through, de-
spite State Department opposition.
He will try to get the bill before the
