Will Translate Constitution

Every Home in Country

The Constitutional League was for
mally organized yesterday at special
meeting at the Hotel Bristol, 122 West
Forty-ninth Street, for the purpose of
educating all Americans in the under
lying principles of the national Consti-
tuition.
The league has been in process
OF formation for some time and is a
voluntary association of citizens who
were actively engaged in the FIVE Lib
erty Loan campaigns and other patri-
otrc drives during the progress of the
wan. 1t will take over practically in
tact the vast volunteer organization
built up in those patriotic movements.
The meeting yesterday was to out
line the plan of campaign. 1t was
stated at the outset that if the people
OF the country understood just what
American ideals and principles meant
all Bolshevist, "Red" and Socialist prop
uganda would be effectively defeated.
The Executive Committee
The executive committee of the new
league is composd of the following:
Franklin K. Lane, Charles Evans
Hughes, Alfred E. Smith, Herbert C.
Pell jr., William Phillips, Franklin D.
Roosevelt, Cardinal Gibbons, Bishop
Burch, the Rev. DR.. Joseph Silverman,
William n. Edwards, jeremiah W.
jerks, Colonel Theodore Roosevelt, Guy
Emerson, Joseph Hartigan, William r.
March, Jerome A. Meyers, Nanny
Strauss and W. DeForest Manice.
The last six men were chiefly instru-
mental in forming the league, which
was first discussed at a preliminary
gathering last summer. The league
will be sustained by voluntary contri-
buttons, but as all the speakers will
give their services free it is not ex-
pected the expenses will be heavy. be-
ing chiefly literature and office costs.
The league is strictly non-partisan.
according to its articles of formation.
Its speakers will be carefully instructed
in their subjects. In addition to
speeches, which will be delivered in
schools, motion picture theaters,
hotels, churches and other meetings,
the league will conduct an extensive
literature campaign in foreign Ian
6oH6So' IL WllA dlSO cooperate Closely
with the American Legion.
Results League Seeks
At the meeting yesterday it was
stated that the league sought to ac-
complish the following results: "The
preservation of American ideals, ex-
planning their origin and meaning; the
encouragement of any activity in the
direction of sound Americanism and of
open discussion of the questions affect
ing the fundamental principles upon
which American institutions are based: /:
the education Of our alien population
in American principles by practical
methods"
Among the things the new league
proposes to do is to put copy of the
Constitution into every home in the
country, to translate it into sixteen for
eign languages and have it taught to
every school child.
Public meetings will be arranged for
campaign between February 12 and
%. The details Of this campaign will
be announced later, it was said.

Martens to Go Before
Senate Inquiry Monday

Washington Barsaw
WASHINGTON, Jan. 14.-Ludwig C.
A. K. Martens, so-called Ambassador"
of the Russian Soviet government, will
appear next Monday before the spe-
cial committee of the Senate appointed
recently to investigate his activities
in the United States and inquire into
Russian propaganda generally. This
announcement was made by Senator
Moses, chairman Af the investigating
committee, to-day.
The Senate to-day unanimously
adopted resolution authorizing the
committee to employ counsel. The
committee will meet tomorrow or Fri
day and select an attorney to take
charge of the investigation.
A protest against the contemplated
appointment of Archibald Stevenson,
who was counsel for the Lusk Commit
tee was made to-day to Senator Moses
by E. P. Jennings, manufacturer of
Lehighton. Pa. Jennings called upon
Senator Moses at the capitol, accom-
panied by Thomas F. Dwyer, a New
York attorney.
Jennings and Dwyer alleged that
Stevenson had Shown prejudice and
unfairness" toward Martens in the New
York investigation, and objected to his
being engaged by the Moses committee
on the grounds that Martens could
not expect fair treatment at his
hands"
Jennings told Senator Moses that he
held contracts amounting to $4,500,O0O
for 1000 printing presses he had agreed
to deliver to the Russian Soviet gov
ernment. He was informed by Senator
Moses that the committee had not yet
decided whom it would employ as coun-
sci, but that Stevenson had been "fa-
vorably considered"
"The government has denied me ex-
port licenses for the shipment of my
printing presses to Russia" Jennings
told Senator Moses. THE Department
of State has informed me that if the
Russian Soviet government sent me
money in payment for the presses the
money was likely to be seized before
it reached this country, and would Ger
tainly be seized if it did reach this
country. / am not the only American
business man holding contracts with
the Russian Soviet government who is
seeking fair play for the Russian xe-
public and the restoration of trade re-
lations between this country and Rus
Sia"

Man Who Shielded Daughter

failed his house was set on fire and a
valuable dog he owned was poisoned.
In 1918 Pepe made a confession to
the police which resulted in the con-

"A wise thing for a young man to

LECTURER TO EXPLAIN
THREE VIEWS OF LIFE

In the last of series Of three lee
lures on theosophy at the Odd Eel
lows hall, DR.. Claude M. Watson, ma
tional lecturer for the Theosophlcal
society, will speak on "Materialism
Creation and Reincarnation."
Three views of life will be pre-
scented. that 5s ssaaserialism, of spe-
cial creation and OF theosophy. DIR.
Watson claims that force and the
struggle for existence and the sur
vival of the fittest do not express
the law OF human evolution; neither
can the wretched inequalities of life
be explained by special creation"
and he brings forward the teachings
OF theosophy as an explanation of
life that harmonizes these facts with
the belief that divine Justice rules
the world. MIR. Watson will also
show that these teachings are not
only in harmony with the teachings
of Christianity, but are a synthesis
OF the truths underlying all religion,
philosophy and science. Lectures
are under the auspices Of the Mem
phis lodge OF the Philosophical So
ciety.

Car Stolen, But .
Gunner Says She
Vas Fined, AnylUay

Asking writ OF certiorari and
supersedeas as result of a SIS fine
assessed In police court, Pat J. Lyons,
attorney. representing Matte Wal
lace, filed unique bill in circuit
court Thursday
Matte Wallace was arrested at the
instance of Jake Groskind, police
Gamewell operator. on a charge that
her automobile passed street car
on the wrong side. Groskind testi-
fled In court that the car. driven by
negro. had violated the city ordi-
nance specified. A fine of SIS was
assessed against Matte Wallace. al
though her attorney declared to the
court that the owner of the car was
IN the state of Arkansas at the time
and that her automobile had been
stolen during her absence.
The petition charges that Judge III.
II. Barker. OF city court. refused to
hear the testimony of Matte Wal
lace or a witness she had to prove
that she was out OF the city at the
time OF the alleged violation, and
that the automobile had been stolen.
Because the fine is less than $40,
there could be no appeal from the
judgment of the court and for this
reason a petition for certiorart and
supersedeas was filed.
