MRS. STOCKER SAID
 COMPETENT MANAGER

LOS ANGELES, June 2.-The peti- ton Of Albert E. Snyder of San Fran cisco. to have his mother, Mrs. Clara Baldwin Stocker, declared incompe- tent to handle the $f0.000,000 estate she inherited from her father. the late ] S (Lucky) Baldwin, California turf man. was denied today by the superior court
 Within 8 few minutes after court convened today, counsel for Snyder announced they rested the plaintiffs case.
 Walter T Mckinley, manager of Mrs. Suckers estate, testified for the defense that she was competent in his Judgment. He denied the allegation of the plaintiff that he had unduly in fluenced Mrs. Stocker
 Snyder's attorney had introduced evidence in an effort to prove Mrs. Stocker, because of McGinley's alleged influence, had given him more than $l,000,O00 of property.
 Several alienists then were called and testified Mrs. Stocker was sane and competent in all respects.
 When the defense rested it's case the presiding judge said:
 The petition to have Mrs. Stocker declared incompetent is dismissed. The evidence before me convinces me be- yond all doubt Mrs. Stocker is o11jte competent to handle her financial and other affairs"

BLACKLIST PAGE IN HISTORY, DECLARES
 SENATOR JOHNSO|!

WASHINGTON, June "A charge that the old world powers, led by Great Britain and Japan, are attempt ing through the league of nations to trap the United States into perpetual ly guaranteeing their integrity, was made in the senate today by Senator Johnson, republican of California The league proposal he said, has no serious purpose behind it of maintaining peace but is, instead, a proposal to maintain autocratic power He asserted the Paris delegates dared not make good their peace professions by writing into the league covenant a provision to leave war declarations to a popular vote of the peoples affected.
 This league of nations, with the men who really wrote it." he said was to maintain peace only insofar as peace maintained forever inviolate their treaties in principle
 In a speech of more than two hours, Senator Johnson charged that the pro vision dealing with the Monroe doctrine was inserted in the revised covenant of the league for the purpose of making the doctrine invalid; that the American delegates in Paris had written the blackest page in our history" by ap- proving the transfer of Shantung tu Japan, and that in the background ot the whole peace negotiations lurked the sinister influence of the Anglo Japanese offensive and defensive al- liance.
 The California senator was not in terrupted during his address and after it's conclusion his resolution, asking for the complete text of the peace treaty was laid aside. It probably will not come up again until Wednesday, To support his assertion that the Monroe doctrine would be destroyed by the league covenant. Mr. Johnson quoted a statement by the British dele gates at Paris saying that should any dispute as to the meaning Of the doc Urine arise between the American and European powers, the league is there to settle it."
 "The British interpretation of this amendment is given added importance, continued the senator, "by the votins strength of he Various members of ,ht l league. With EnSland's six yotes-th. United States 1as ohG-we may be per fectly certain chat English intefpreta- l tion of the amendment relating to th, Monroe doctrine will receive carefu and courteous Consideration

INCREASED RATES
 ARE UPHILL ] BY
 SUPREME COURT

WASHINGTOS, June 2.-lncreased railroad telegraph and telephone rates, ordered by the railroad administration and by the postmaster general, respec- tiveiy, were sustained today by the supreme court, whcih held that the war powers conferred by congress upon President Wilson included sweeping control over the railroad and wire sys- tems, with supreme and conclusive authority to fix an intrastate rate. The questions were decided in two opinions rendered by Chief Justice White, the one relative to the railroads, by the chief justice, was dissented in by Brandeis, and also he dissented in the telegraph and telephone rates, but without rendering a separate opinion. The opinions affect litigation which has been instituted in forty states and which involve the validity of both rate orders. As a result of the courts de- cision, injunctions. restraining the di- rector general of raolroads from en- forcing/ an order increasing freight and passenger rates in North Dakota. were dissolved. The court >also upheld the dismissal of proceedings brought by Massachusetts state authorities, to prevent intrastate telephonera tes in that state being increased and set aside injunStions to prevent advance of tele- phone rates in South Dakota and tele- graph rates in Illinois. In addition, the court also dismissed an original suit | brought by the state of Kansas against the postmaster general, seeking to have the rates prescribed by him in that state declared unrea asonable and to prevent them from being made effec- tive.
 In deciding the cases, the court held that the resolutions under which the ! government took over control of these l utilities, together with the presidents | proclamations and the railroad control ! act, gave the United States complete ! possession and control under the war { powers and that congress had a right to confer these powers upon the presi- dent
 "On the face of the statutes Chief ! Justice White said, in deciding the railroad case. it is manifest that they were in terms based upon the war T poWsr, since 7he aathoriry they gave arose only because of the exsirenee of war and the right to exert authority was to cease upon the wa-'s ternin- ation. To interpret, therefore, the ex ercise of the power by q presumption of the continuance of a state power, limiting and controlling the national authority was but to deny it's exist ence.
 Although it may be conceded the chief justice said. in the telephone case, that there is some ground for 'contending, in view of the elements of authority enumerated in the resolution 1 of congress. that there was power given to take less than the whole, if the presi dent deemed it best to do so. we are of
 the opinion that the authority was con
 teITed as to all the enumerated eie- ments, and that there was hence a right In the president to take complete pos session and control to enable the full operation of the lines embraced in the authority

VIOLENCE ATTENDS
 1STH DAY OF STRIKE

WINNIPEG, June 2-Violence by strike sympathizers in q parade of 1000 men today, marked the eighteenth day of the general strike here.
 For the first time since the strike began, Winnipeg policemen were called into action and demonstrants who attempted to force their way into the board of trade building were checked by policemen, detectives and volunteers
 The paraders first marched to the provincial parliament building for the third time since Friday, and demanded the resignation- of Premier T. C. Nor ''incompetency."
 Premier Norris announced he had not re6eded from his previous standard that he would do nothing regarding provincial legislation which the union men are demanding, until the sympa- thetic strike is called off.
 Howard Lloyd. who stood on the curb, wearing d Canadian flag on his coat, refused to remove the flag and several of the marchers attacked him. He proudly displayed the emblem still on his torn coat after the melee.
 The most important strike develop ment today, from a coalition stand point. was an announcement by the railroad brotherhood executives, at tempting to mediate the controversy, that they had transmitted to the exec utives of the Winnipeg Metal Trades council an offer of settlement which had been received from the heads o1 i, Winnipeg's three leading iron works.
