COURT HOUSE, Montesano, Wash, March 1.-From the lips or Bert Bland, 24,. one of the ten l. w. w. charged with the murder of Lieut.. Warren O. Grimm, came the admission this af- ternoon that he posted himself on Seminary Hill, overlooking Centralia, and fired with high powered rifle in- to the armistice day parade. His brother, O. c. Commodore Bland, had just testified that he and another de fendant, John Lamb, were stationed in an upper window of the Arnold hotel across the street from the l. w. w. hall, prepared also to shoot into the crowd, but, because of an injury to Bland's hand, did not fire, deciding on flight instead.
 The testimony of the Bland brothers practically bears out the theory of the states case and substantiates the hot ly contested confession of Loren Rob erts. It caused profound sensation.
 It was the most astounding event since the beginning of the trial. De fense Counsel George E. Vandeveer, had not even intimated, in his opening statement, that the defense would ad- init that there was an I. w. w. sharp shooter, waiting to protect their prop erty, in any place other than the hall.
 Bert Bland, whose wavy hair gave him the nickname of "Curley," took the witness stand dressed in a blue shirt open at the neck. He was not nervous. He spoke cooly and appar- ently without fear. He told the jury that he and Roberts and Ole Hanson, a defendant, fired from the hill. The witness said he shot between four and eight times" The other Bland Commodore" is 36, married and has seven children. He gave his evidence no less calmly and forcefully than his brother.
 When court adjourned tonight, ev. cry one of the defendants, except Rob erts and Ray Brecker, had been on the l witness stand. Roberts plea of insan- ity bars him as a witness. BreckeI may testify tomorrow. Elmer Smith attorney for the Centralia l. w. w and charged as an accessory before the murder, was on the stand at ad

FRENCH STRIKE
 DECLARED UT

PARIS, March 1.-The strike on the French railroads ended tonight.
 An understanding was reached be- tween directors of the railways and the railroad men, and the national fed eration immediately ordered the re- sumption of work.
 Railroad federation delegates met railway directors on the initiative of the federation and an agreement was reached on most points of the federa- tion's program, which really was not on dispute. Difficulty arose over penal ties to be Imposec on the strikers. Fi- nally it was decided to appeal to Pre- mier Millerand.
 The premiei's proposal, no pay for the days of the strike; no punishment for refusing the formal request to re sume work and a review by each direc- tor in a spirit of justice of all other punishments, proved acceptable.
 The executive committee of the gen. eral federation of labor issued a state. ment that the Federation of Railroad men had advised the committee 1t had obtained satisfaction for all claims The committee, which had already talk en steps to cooperate with railroaders the statement added, took note of the situation thus arising.

Hines Pays Rentals Due On Is Contracts; Workers
 Plans Uncertain

WASHINGTON, March Transfer today of the railroads from govern ment to private control marked the be- ginning of great activity at the Inter- state Commerce commission and the closing up of affairs of the railroad administration. Road officials were notified by the commission of it's in- creased jurisdiction under the new railroad law. Director General Hines concluded negotiations on IS compen- sation contracts by which roads invOlv ed were paid the annual rental due for the 26 months of federal operation. Settlement of claims was begun.
 Railroad labor, through its repre- sentatives, attempted to agree on its next course, as a result of the presl- dents advice that they await the handling of their demands for inoreas- ed pay by machinery created in the transportation act. IL was understood leaders would soon make public their plans.

UPHOLDS STATE
 INCOME TAXES

WASHINGTON, March 1.-Right of the states to impose income taxes on non-residents provided they are in mar mony with those imposed on residents, was upheld and defined today by the supreme court in two decisions.
 In a case from Oklahoma, the court held a state had authority to levy in- come taxes against non-residents on incomes derived from property within the state.
 In New York case, however. the court declared such taxes against non- residents must not be discriminatory.
 The Oklahoma income tax law was sustained and the New York law was declared void insofar as it denies non resident exemptions which are given New York citizens Both opinions were given by Justice Pitney, with Justice McReynolds dissenting in the New York cases. In both suits were involved the exemptions, similar to the federal income tax law, provided for married and single persons.
 Distinction between the Oklahoma and New York laws, it appears. was that the Oklahoma law gives non-resi- dents and citizens the same exemp- tions while the New York law denies non-residents exemptions granted its citizens.

VOTERS TOACT
 ON TREATY AT
 FALL ELECTION
Final Vote to Be Taken and Pact Passed Up to People
 By Senators

WASHINGTON, March 1.-Convinc- ed that for the present their labors to breeak the peace treaty deadlock are a waste of time, senate leaders moved today to get the treaty out of the way of pressing legislation and to let issues raised by the ratification fight go into the political campaign.
 Under the plan, compromise nego- tiations on the reservation to article ten are to be dropped, readoption of the Republican reservation program of last session is to be completed as for mality. and then a final vote is to be taken to put the treaty into the camm- paign.
 Some senators predicted tonight a final vote, which it is conceded will record another failure to ratify. would come within three days. Among most leaders, however, the prediction was that the smouldering debate would take at least most of the week to burn itself out.
 The decision to hasten action was reached when Republican leaders, con vinced that the Democrats would block ratification unless the article ten reservation were modified, deter mined to insist that the reservation go into the ratification resolution without change. In this reaffirmation they accede to a demand by Republi can irreconcilables. who had intimated that they might adopt methods of their own to wreck the Republican program

Especial to The Review)

TOMBSTONE, March l. Super visors of Cochise County this after noon refused to pay A. A. Warsley, Tucson attorney, for the part he is taking i'll the prosecution of the Bis bee deportation cases. When the board met this afternoon, a claim for $2500 was presented by Wors- ley for services rendered and to be rendered" in the trial of H. E.

 Without discussion Supervisor Jack Sparks moved that the claim be denied. Supervisor l. C. E. Ad- ans seconded the motion. The third member of the board, Charles Rob- erts, of Wilcox, voted for the pay ment of the claim. Roberts, who is a candidate for the Democratic nomination of governor, is recog- niZed as one of the men in the county most vigorously urging the prosecution of the cases.
 Worsley was called in to take charge of the prosecution about two weeks ago, when County Attor- ney French was ordered by physi- clans to give up his post.

WILL MAKE FIGHT
 ON STATE RIGHTS

. TRENTON, N. J., March l. - The New Jersey senate late tonight passed F to g, the compromise beer bill pro viding for manufacturing, selling and transporting of beverages containing not more than S15 per cent alcohol by volume. The bill would not become effective until after peace has been of ficially proclaimed.
 The measure went through the sen ate after reference had been made to the state senate in 1863 condemning President Lincoln for his emancipation of the slaves; after it had been stated New Jersey would become a traitor to a great cause; and after the anti-sa- loon league had been excoriated for it's lobbying in antagonism to move to have the beer law in the state so that the attorney general could fight for state rights on the question before the United States supreme court.
 With galleries damned and floors of the chamber packed, the debate surged along until Senator Simpson brought aplause by declaring it was up to the legislature to act on the concurrent powers vested in 1t on the liquor ques- tion by the Volstead act.
 Governor Edwards is expected to sign the bill tomorrow.
