NEWSPAPER MEN

Have Created Formal Organization to Work for Certain Reforms

Rv Associated Press

By Associated Press
 Tokio September 22.-Japanese news paper men recently returned from Paris, politicians. labor leaders and business men have just organized a reform asso- citation known as the Reconstruction Alliance" with the object of carrying out radical reforms in Japan in con sonance with the age, and especially with the object of having universal suffrage law passed at the next session of the Diet.
 The programme also includes abolitsM of all class distinctions, abolition or Du- real1cratic diplomacy, establishment Of a democratic political system, public rec ognition of labor organizations, reform of the tax system, "purification" or the imperial household department and apso- lute freedom of speech and of the press
 Sneakers passing their remarks on i'm pressons gained at Paris, dwelt upon the backwardness of Japan as compared with other leading countries.
 The suffrage resolutions, adopted unani- n,ously. was supported by three of the younger members of the Diet who were present. One of them, Representative Uyehara, said:
 Japan is a constitutional country Tn name, but not in reality. Until the pee ple realize that the country belongs to them there can be no such thing as true constitutional country. While other nations are devotng themselves to so- cial reforms Japan has still to settie the question of universal suffrage which

Montgomery, November S.-(Special.) Sections of the Shaw bone-dry bill" enacted into law by the last legislature, and which relate to the confiscation of real property used in the manufacture of prohibited beverages in Alabama, are as strohg as the rock of Gibraltar, ac- cording to decision handed down by the Alabama supreme court in the case of B. B Dowda vs the state of Ala hama. The case came from the equity side of the Jefferson circuit court, Judge Hugh Locke, chancellor The opinion, written by Justice j. J. Mayfield before he reiiaquished his post to become code commissioner of Alabama, is an exhaus- tive one, and quotations from other rul- lugs of the supreme court are given.
 When the condemnation proceedings came up for hearing Thomas J. Judge. attorney for Dowda, entered a demurrer to the bill of complaint, which was in stantly overrdled by Chancellor Locke. This brought the appeal case, and inci- dentally the first construction of the Shaw act, so far as it relates to the con- fiscation and sale of real property. It was alleged that section F of the Shaw bill was in direct violation of section 45 of the state constitution, ''in that 1t is not germane or properly referable to the title of the act
 Tt IS next insisted that Secuon 1z ol the act violates the provisions of our state constitution which guarantees to the citizens the inalenable right of trial by jury, and which guarantees that the right shall remain inviolable, says the opinion of Justice Mayfeld. "The answer to this contention is that the proceed irgs to abate a nuisance or to condemn OF confiscate property which is eelng used to create or maintain such nuisance, and in violation of the law, is not pro ceding in which the right of trial by jury existed at common law, or by stat ute when the constitution was adopted and it is therefore not within the pro- tection of these constitutional provisions.
 ''The right of jury trial did not extend to equity cases as a matter of right when our constitution was adopted, nor to pro- ceedngs like the one in question, pro- vided for in section 12 of this act; hence it does not violate these provisions or our constitution in its failure to provide for jury trial

INTEREST SHOWN
 IN AMERICAN HOMES
Rv Associated Pros

London, October 14-Americ4n women in England. and some of the men. too, have gazed longingly the past few days on photographs of interiors of modest American homes. many of which the London newspapers are publishing to suggest improvement in English living conditions. Their drab surroundings in a high-ceiling drawing room with it's inevitable coaf grate fire makes them covet the cozy, steam-heated living room and clean, convenient kitchens they see pictured.
 Great Britain has it's housing problem as have other European nations. For months the health ministry has tried to adopt satisfactory schemes for erect ing new houses, but has not arrived at any national plan. Up to October l, 5olz schemes had been submitted but none of them fit the entire country.

clared to be wholesome, digestible and nourishing under normal stomach con- ditions. /
 Many people, however, once got the notion they couldn't eat such things and have grown in prejudice as a conse- quence. They have denied themselves almost everything except milk and water.
 But you vii! find here and there one of this kind eating onions, cucumbers. melons and other such terrors of the dyspeptic because he has found that by merely giving the stomach little assis- tance there are no after effects from such indulgence. There is avoidance of gassiness, no sour risings, no water brash, you don't taste 'em hours after. Stuart's Dyspepsia tablets are for those who suffer after eating and for those who starve, for fear of suffering. They relieve the distress of indigestion and they also serve to assist the stomach to prevent indigestion.
 Eating should be one of your chief enjoyments. It is really the most at tractive of social gatherings. and it is worth our while to realize that we may induige freely by exercising the pre- cautionary measure of aiding the di- gestive process. Thus you may eat your hot biscuits, buckwheats, rich cake, on- ions, mince pie, sausage and so on pro vided you take Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablet afterwards.

Plans For Troops Welcome.

Annapolis
About $4,000 will be spent for
the homecoming reception that Mary
land will tender the returning troops
on or around May 80, in Baltimore.
The site for the official reviewing
stand at Washington's monument,

Paul, to Mount Royal, and then to
Cathedral street, where the parade
will disband. The committee is ask
ing that every patriotic citizen float
flags from the windows, especially
along the line of march. The ar
mories, including the 5th Regiment
Armory, will be extensively decorated
for the receptions that will be held
after the parade. These receptions
and dinners will be given, in many
instances, by the auxiliaries of the
different units. The units, as far as
possible, will be paraded in one pa
rade, however, although the different
armories will have to be used to
entertain tLsm later. Mount Vernon
Place Church has volunteered to
care for 800 men at lunch after the
parade, and the Knights of Column
bus will provide supper for all OF
the men of the 115th infantry,
part of the 29th Division.
The Governor appointed a special
committee, with representatives from

The Tale of an Eaa.

Frank ,Lafferty, captain OF police
at Muncie, once answered call late
at night from restaurant whose own
ar asked that q drunken man be taken
from the place.
SIT was the strangest case Of intox-
ication I ever dealt WITH" said Laf-
ferty, relating the experience. "In the
restaurant I found sitting on high
stool at the counter an elderly man
who was weeping into his plate con-
tanning the remnants Of what evidently
had been hard boiled egg.
"sWhat's the matter? asked the
soggy individual and he answered be-
tween choking sobs I weep to think
that by this act Of cruelty in devouring
this egg have deprived some poor
innocent chicken of the right Of being
born!
"And do you know" Lafferty con-
tinued, ''the only way we could COM
fort the poor fellow and get him out
of there was to tell him it was not
that kind Of an egg."-Indianapolis

Remove Ban On Wine and Beer.
The rehabilitation of the military
forces of the country has progressed
to such point that it seems to me en-
tirely safe now to remove the ban
upon the manufacture and sale OF
wines and beers, but / am advised that
without further legislation I have not
the legal authority to remove the pres
ent restrictions. l, therefore, recon-
mend that the act approved Novem-
ber 81, 1918, entitled, "An act to en-
able the secretary of agriculture to
carry out during the fiscal year end
ing June 80, 1919, the purposes of the
act entitled, AN act to provide fur

poses,' be amended or repealed in so
far as it applies to wines and beers.

soon be at my post in Washington

made my presence at the peace taple
