PUNISHMENT
RESOLUTION KILLED IN
HOUSE LAST NIGHT
Old Age Pensions Bob Up
Again And House Goes On
Record Favoring Them.

The lcapital punishment resolution
of the senate, which provided that the
question should be submitted at the
coming special election, was railroaded
to its death last night at IL o'clock
when barely quorum was present in
the house.
Opponents Of capital punishment
were shrewd enough to lay the resou-
tion on sthe table early in the evening
when the attendanc Of members was
close to normal. As the resolution was
first called up at about $3.50 o'clock
last night, it was laid on the table on
the plea that it would be better to
take it up later when every member
was present.
/ Along towards III clock, when bare
ly quorum was present and all were
exhausted from the strenuous day s
work, and just as the desk mad been
cleared and adjournment was in order,
tho motion was suddenly made that
the senate resolution on capital pun
ishment be taken up.

TO Be TRIED
IN STATE COURTS
Seditious Matter Found on
Him Possibly Inside U. S.
Statutes. J.

II Is unlikely that James Tydus, ne
gro, Shaw place, arrested by the police
with copies OF The Challenge, an alleged
s%editious publication. in his possession
VIII be prosecuted by federal authori-
ties, according to a statement made
Thursday morning by Thomas J. Walsh,
assistant United States district attor-
ney,
The federal authorities will doubtless
cooperate with state officials in prose-
cutting the negro. but Mr.. Walsh ex-
pressed the opinion that federal au-
thorities would hardly handle the mat
ter, as the contents Of the booklets
would hardly come within the scope OF
the federal law.
A conference will be held some time
Thursday between Mr.. Walsh and S. o,
Bates, states attorney, for the purpose
OF determining what action viii be
taken against Tydus. The charge
eventually placed against him, however.
will doubtless be filed by the state and
not by the government.
J. d, Burney, chief Of police, Is con-
ttdent Tydus Ii associated with negro
leaders who were instrumental In the
recent riots at Helena. Ark. He scouts
Tydus' explanation that he was handed
the pamphlets found In his possession
when arrested, when he went TO a
house to deliver a bundle Of clothing.
The pamphlets, called The Challenge,
are considered inflammatory.
Tydus disclaims any connection with
riot incitors and win no doubt enter a
plea Of not guilty, Regardless OF his
plea he will probably be bound over TO
the state.

MAKE TENNESSEE
.FREPROOF" S CALL
Business Houses and Homes
Being Inspected for
Fire Prevention.

Ihls is the day upon which Gov.
ROBERTS and Mayor MonteVerde asked
The people Of Memphis and other parts
" lhs state TO make Tennessee fire.
prooI I'll Is fire-preyention day. Good
eltl1ens are expected ITO clean up their
premises n take such steps as may
De necessary TO prevent the destruction
OF their property by fire" and make a
kooo resolution TO practice fire pFeYen-
Ton Ses days out OF every year.
As part OF the local phase Of the
campaign, the city firemen are making
an inspection OF the buildings in the
business section and the Boy Scouts
are inspecting the residence district TO
ascertain what attention Is being paid
70 minimizing fires, One Of the things
mat these Inspectors will notice most
Ssretuliy VIII be the relative cleanli-
ness OF premises. Eighty per cent Of
al Tires are caused by filth and care
lesshess, T.. w. Deupree, local direc-
tor OF the campaign says, and the state
department. u fire prevention wants to
know how clean Memphis homes and
business houses are.
An educational campaign was con-
Quoted In the public schools by the
teachers, members OF the Memphis Fire
prevention association and representa-
yves OF the state fire prevention de-
partment. The teachers In the element
ary grades read essays on fire preven-
eHohi anu SNORT lectures were given at 4
meeting OF the students Of the Central
high school in the auditorium by l.. s,
Akers, OF the fire prevention associa-
tiioni Z. A. Larsen, deputy fire proven
tion commissioner for West Tennessee,
and MIR. Deupree.
Mr., Akera states the high school stu
dents showed the keenest Interest in
their plea for the exercise of care in
the homes to prevent fires.
Memphis already has one of the lowest
records OF fire loss. Mr., Akers states,
due IN large part to the work OF the
fire prevention association during eight
years. Ten years ago Memphis had the
highest percentage OF fire loss in the
South and its present good standing
was attained by overcoming that condi-
ton. A high compliment was paid 10
the fire department for it's aid in i'm
proving conditions. II believe we have
the most efficient fire department in
the South Mr.. Akers said.

Poindexter is a very able man, but says
that he "lacks geographical location"

By his comment that Senator Poin-

may be, he must leave the Pacific
