will be related to members of the
board of education at meeting this
afternoon in the Franklin School at 4

that extension of the Junior high

of the most feasible methods of re-
lieving classroom overcrowding. Ex-
tension of the system here. however,
is not contemplated until more build

Other matters to be considered by

crowded conditions in the schools.
Regular routine matters also will

ELECTS
c. 0. P. GOVERNOR
Aft TayIor's Majority Is 49,
000-Harding Leading Cox
by Less Than 500.

|, NASHVILLE, Tenn. November (by
the Associated Prcss) At 10 o'clock
this morning reports from sixty-six
counties, of the states ninety-five and
estimates on the remainder gave Hard
ing. for President, a lead of 26S over
Cox in the state. The figures include
q report that Shelby county (Memphis)
had gone for Cox by 1000 votes.
Later figures have increased the lead
of Alt Taylor, republican candidate for
governor, over Gov. A. H. Roberts, DEM
ocrat, to over 5000. Shelby county is
reported to have gone for Taylor by
500 majority
Taylor is the brother of the late
democratic Senator Robert L. Taylor,
who was thrice elected Governor of Ten
| nessec. This years race for governor
was All Taylors second, his first hav-
ing been against his brother Bob, in
1886, known in Tennessee traditions as
Congress several terms and though
seventy-two years of age, made an ae-
tive canvass of the state. both for the
republican nomination and in the re-
cent campaign.
&. O. T.. Wins I'm East.
The republicans piled up heavy ma
jorities in east Tennessee. while the
democratic maJOritleS IN mlQQle len
nessee in many cases fell below normal
despite the votes of the women. Some
democratic counties in this section even
went republican.
Tennessee has never gone republic
can in a presidential race since recon-
struction days. A republican candi-
date for governor has never hereto
fore carried the state without a split
in the democratic ranks in the same
period.
An extra ordinarily heavy vote was
polled generally over the state and
in the large cities the count is still
in progress. In Nashville only eight
out of twenty-five wards had finished
counting at 10 o'clock.
Women Are Defeated.
Tennessee had two woman candi-
dates for the legislature: Mrs. Carrie
NJ. Clemens. democrat. in Green
county, and Miss Frances Wolf. indie
pendent candidate, in Shelby. Both
were defeated.
Harry r. Burn, republican candidate
for reelection to the legislature in
McMinn county, whose vote figured in
the suffrage ratification fight before
the extra session. is said to have been
defeated by a dem ocrat.
Democratic state headquarters does
not concede the state either in the
presidential or the gubernatorial
race, claiming the latter by a small
ma ority.

pose themselves to forcible exclusion.
Shop committees at first required the
workingman to be on duty sixteen
hours daylight hours for work and
eight hours for guard duty. Owing to
protests, however, they have reduced
the hours of duty to twelve daily.
Workingmen in all factories are
obliged to give certain amount Of
time to military drill. They also are
we'll supplied with small arms and
some have machine guns. One factory
in the possession of the workmen is
turning out a regular daily product
Of machine guns for distribution. The
works now running are using up raw
materials on hand and putting the
finished goods in stock, as thew have
no sales organizations. The amount
Of raw materials cannot last beyond
few weeks.
Municipal Affairs Unmolested|
Shop committees attend strictly to
the operation Of the works without in
terfering with municipal or local af-
fairs. Employers agents report that
the workmen have only from 25 to so
q great deal Of the time in idle discus
sion and conferences on the general
situation.
Each plant is a miniature stronghold
with barbed wire entanglements, in ad-
dition to walls and fences already
standing.
General managers Of most Of the
plants have been removed by vote of
the workmen, their places being filled
by molders or other practical iron
workers.

Mexican Congress Split
BY Fight ON Obregon
Lower House Will Not Act I'm.

servatives i'm Plot
Special Cable to The Tribune

Copyright. 1920. New York Tribune Inc.
MEXICO CITY, Sept. 13.-The chaot-
ic situation in the Mexican Chamber of
Deputies has not clarified sufficiently
to make possible a political inventory
or estimate of the strength of the sew
eral factions.
The credentials of many post-elec-
tion aspirants for seats still are undis-
cussed. making necessary the appoint
ment of committees without the full
house. This is arousing bitter criti-
cism on the part of many who con-
slider this action directed against them.
Statements hitherto have indicated that
all factions would have some represen-
tation on the floor of the house.
The Extreme Left appears growing
in strength, although becoming d.
vided as more members obtain seats
enabling them to break off party con-
nections.
Political observers consider it i'm
probable that any real work will be
attempted in the lower house until
after the Inauguration of General
Obregon, which it is generally conced-
ed will stop the conservatives, who are
working quietly preparing a case for
presentation to the chamber when that
body acts as the Electoral College on
Presidential elections. Their intention
is to have the elections declared illegal
if they are unable to have Obregon de-
clared not eligible

Pacificism Held No Bar
To Admittance to u. S,
State Department Rules ON Issue
of Religious Belief Raised
by Bible Students

WASHINGTON, Sept I3.-No dis
elimination should be made on account
OF religious belief against any alien
attempting to enter the United States,
the Department Of Justice has ruled,
IN passing on an appeal raised ,by
George H. Biddle, from the attempt Of
immigration authorities to bar his en-
trance.
Biddle is secretary Of the "stand-
fast" section of the International Bible
Students Association, which group
came into conflict with the government
during the war because of its insistence
upon pacifieism. Biddle's case was
brought up when he desired to cross
the Canadiansborder to attend 8 con-
yention of Che organization in the
United States.
THE United States was founded upon
the PRINCIPLES of both civil and religious
liberty" r. B. Mahany, Acting Secre-
tary Of the department, said in the
decision. "The principles mentioned
are the foundation, of American gov
ernment. 1t is therefore not believed
that the mere fact Of membership in
the organization should prejudice the
right Of aliens to admission to the
United States"

5000 Farmers Protest
Tenant Onster by Duke

GRENADA, Spain, Sept. 49,
Six thousand farmers gathered
here yesterday to support the
tenants of the Duke of Yelling
ton in their protest against the
action of the dukes steward in
ejecting them from farms which
has been in the possession of their
families for a century.
A resolution was adopted to be
sent to the duke informing him
that the action meant ruin to the
inhabitants of twenty villages
and hamlets.
Another resolution proposed
that the duke should renounce the
property rights granted his fam
lily by the Cortez Of Cadiz after
the Peninsular War of 1s08-'14,
and asked the government to &C.
quire the property by redemption.
