The president-elect recently submit ted to congress a law which contem- plates a system of pensions ana ln- surance policies for employees who have grown old in service or who have become disabled as the result of their work Certain wage in increases are also proposed by the law.
 Discussing another project recently submitted to congress ill which he wishes to increase the Iesponsib1ll- ties of the president and his aides, General Obregon declared that the constitution of 1917 delivered too much power to the chief executive without providing sufficient respons1- bilities and that it was the exercise of these almost tyrannical powers by Carranza that led to the revolution against him. The proposed law would make the president subject to trial Ii he. in any way restrained the liber- ties of voters or attempted to preJu- dice elections, either federal or state; if he exerted pressure upon congress or the supreme court to influence their actions; ii he attacked the soV- ereignty of any state: II he were a party to the formal administration of public funds. or concluded treaties with foreign powers without the con- sent of congress.
 The various members of tine cabi- net would be made equally liable for not opposing the chief executive in such illegalities.

 The offer was in reply to an invi-
 tation from Paul Hymans. president
 of the council of the league of ma

 assembly of the league of nations at

 that the "hCrrors of the Armenian

 trusting some power with the task
 of taking the necessary measures to
 stop the hOstilities in Armenia.
 The United States. although not a

CORK |S SWE.P l BY FIRE AND
 BULLETS
Irish City Is Terrorized By Day and Night Fighting
 and lncendiarism

CORK, Nov. 3O.-(By the Associat- ed Press 1.-The odor of charred or shouldering wood prevails in Cork and the main street is unsightly with the debris of fine wrecked houses.
 Since Friday the sky nightly has been lighted by the glare of incen- diary fires, which have destroyed dozen large buildings. causing losses estimated at about $1.5OG,000.
 Early today a second unsuccessful attempt was made to burn me city hall which recently was badly dam aged by a bomb explosion and fire No less than five Sim Fein clubs have been destroyed.
 The present series Of fires follow ed warnings that reprisals would take place unless three army officers kid mapped recently from train at Wat erfall were returned unharmed. A re port. which has not been confirmed is that the bodies of all three of the officers were found in field near Waterfall.
 Firemeh flTed On
 The fire brigade when responding to an alarm Sunday night was fired upon by parties Of masked uniform ed men. Consequently the firemen feared to venture forth. and when the Thomas Ashe Sim Fein club was set fire to today they refused to leave their quarters until the protection of two lorries loaded with soldiers was afforded them The fires usually have been started with incendiary bombs and petro lin buildings the owners or occupants of which are be- lieved to be Sim Feiners.
 Explosions and fusillades from rifles and revolveTs almost invariably furnish terrifying overture and ac- compartment to the confiagration.
 As a result of these fearful night ly ordeals Cork has become a city of nerves. Business is almost at a standstill, and many persons are afraid to venture abroad. even in day light Large numbers of the town folk have left Cork for less troubled dis tricts.
 People Terrorized
 One effect of the prolonged strain. according to physicians, has been a sharp increase in the number of pa tients admitted to the insane asy- lums,, and an increase in heart dis ease. It also has resulted in the de velopment of curious form of sOitre among adults, especially women. and St Vitus Dance among children. the physicians declare
 The newspaper publishers frankly say that they are intimidated to such an extent that they now are printing telegraphic accounts containing the barest and most perfunctory stories of the troublous times. The panic of the people is so intense that they are reluctant to discuss the happenings and when they can he induced to talk they speak in whispers.
