COX-ROOSEVELT CLUB
is UNDER WAY HERE
Colpoys Expects to Do Work That
Will Reach All Over
Country

We are going to organize a real
Cox-Roosevelt club. that Will help
win victory for the democratic party
IN the coming election" said John 3.
Colpoys. secretary Of the democratic
central committee, today. This club
Will be organized with those who rep
resented the District Of Columbia at
the national convention in San Fran
cisco as charter members. The pur-
pose, then, is to spread out and en-
roll as many democrats as possible.
and to disseminate Information re-
garding the candidates and the party
platform to as many residents of
Washington as go to other states to
vote.
L do not believe that any other
oX-Roosevelt club can perform as
good missionary work as the one we
will havt in Washington, or that any
other will be more active" said Mr..
Colpoys. I'VE will first convince the
people living here and let them carry
on the good work as they return to
the states"
Mr.. Colpoys said that the District
organization has been promised the
best speakers and that 1t will have
the cooperation of the most active
party leaders.

the San Francisco convention are
making return trip through Canada,
and the organization of the Cox
Roosevelt club is awaiting only their
return to the National Capital.

BRITAIN AND JAPAN SAY
ALLIANCE WILL CONTINUE
Prolonged for a Year, According to
Notice Which Has Been Given
to League of Nations.

LONDON, July 13.-Great Britain
and Japan have notified the league of
nations that they have prolonged
their treaty alliance for a year, ac-
cording to the Daily Mail, at the same
time pointing out that the terms of
the treaty are in accord with the prin-
ciples of the league.
The reason for the prolongation of
the treaty, according to the Mail. is
that Great Britain has not yet had an
opportunity to consult with the
dominions regarding a revision of the
treaty. which is necessitated by the
elimination of German influence in the
far east.
Considerable opposition to the con-
tinuation of the treaty has been ex
pressed by the Australasian news
papers, and likewise in China feeling
against it has been somewhat strong.
me Chinese government protested
against renewal of the compact
without China being consulted.

NEW YORK RENT LAW
UNCONSTITUTIONAL
Justice HotchLtiss Says 1t Deprives
Landlords Remedy for RepOsses-
sion of Property.

NEW YORK. Nov. 1.-The rent laws
passed to safeguard the interests of ten
ants at the recent session of the New
York state legislature were declared I'M
constitutional in a decision handed down
late yesterday by Supreme Court Justice
Henry T. HotchkiSs.
Justice Hotchkiss, in rendering his de-
cision, which was against Mortimer
Osterweis, tenant, named defendant in
election proceedings, said the law was
unconstitutional because at depriveS
landlords from all remedy for re-poSses-
sion of their property" and lit is dis
criminatory because as between owners
OF old and new buildings and those who
seek to regain possession for other pur-
poses, the act denies the equitable protec-
Osterweis permission to answer the com
plant, so that the suit may be brought to
trial in open court.
1T is of immense Importance that. in
view of the series of so-called housing
laws recently passed and of which the
above is one, the entire matter should be
passed upon by the court of last resort as
soon as possible" the decision said.
1T is, therefore, important that de
cision of this motion should be promptly
made, and to do this and express my views
in this opinion, is impossible"
Decision was reserved yesterday in the

expired April 80 last, it was testified. but
because of the rent legislation he failed
to vacate his residence Oct. /, as stipu-

The supreme court, in denying the
writ, had ruled the causes in the pend
