and believed to contain the Woman's
vital organs.
Police said they learned today Leroy
was a friend of a Mexican named Jose
Yenez, who left here for Texas on June
10, the same day the womans body
was shipped to New York.
Leroy is said to have very good
family connections in Mexico with
either his father or brother in the Mex
lean consular service. Leroy is said
to speak Spanish and Yiddish.

(By Associated Press. }

Dublin, July 27.-Nearly all the Irish
county and district councils recently
elected have now passed resolutions
declaring allegiance to Daily Eireann,
and their first meetings have been
turned into Sim Fein demonstrations.
The. new chairmen, everywhere out
side northeast Ulster. are Sim Feiners.
The Dublin county council has al
ways been moderate body. Now 1t
has a Sim Fein majority, has pro-
nounceCf for Dali Eireann and elected
as its chairman a young professor OF
mathematics. At Sligo the chairman,
a Sim Fein NJ. P, announced that all
their actions would be guided towards
the most effective means OF clearing
Britain out Of Ireland.
This council, like most OF the coun-
ellis, has made Irish language COM
pulsory on all candidates for office un-
der the council. The councils have
refused to send minutes OF their pro-
ceedings to the local government board
and will also refuse all information TO
the income tax department. None or
the councils would make any provision
for the payment of the compensation
for outrage awarded against the locall-
ties by the courts.
At Roscommon it was decided to stop
the salary OF the sheriff to punish him
for allowing military to occupy the
court house. In many places the re-

COOLIDGE ASKS
LAW and ORDER
Republ lican Vice-Presidential
Nominee Would Restore
Peoples Rights.
(By Associated Press.j

Northampton, Mass, July 27.-Res-
cue from the reactions of war was
described as the transcendent need of
the nation in an address which Gov
ernor Coolidge delivered here today in
accepting formally the Republican
nomination for vice president. The
chief, task tht lies before US. he said,
"is to repossess the people of their
government and their property"
Governor Coolidge found another
source of gravest public concern to be
the react.onary tendency to substi-
tute private will for the public will"
He said there had been a disposition
on the part of some individuals and of
groups to inquire whether they liked
the law, and if not, to disregard it and
prevent its execution by the method of
direct action. The observance of the
law" he said, "is the creates solvent
of public Ills
The scene of the notification was
Allen Field, the recreation ground of
Smith College. A platform large
enough to accommodate only the
speakers and a few distinguished
guests was erected at one end of the
field and on the grassy slopes before
it the great assemplage stood through
out the exercises.
Governor Coolidge heard from Gov.
Edwin P. Morrow of Kentucky, the
final announcement of his nomination
by the Spontaneous wish of the par
ty.
Discussing economic relations, Gov
ernor Coolidge declared the extrava-
giant standards of government expen-
diture must be eliminated and a revis-
ion of taxation be accompanied by a
reduction of private extravaganza. He
urged a different public attitude to-
ward industry, a larger comprehension
of the inter dependence of capital,
MANAGEMENT and labor and better IA
cilities for the prompt and reasonable
adjustment of industrial disputes.
"The proposed League of Nations
met with deserved opposition from
Republican senator's said Governor
Coolidge. Our party approves the,
principle of agreement among nations
to preserve peace and pledges itself
to the making of such an agreement,
preserving American independence and
rights, as will meet every duty Amer
ica owes to humanity. This language
is purposely broad, not exclusive but
inclusive"
"A revision of taxation must be ac-
companied with a reduction OF that
private extravaganza which the returns
from luxury taxes reveal as surpass-
ing all comprehension.
"Profiteering should be punished
because it IS wrong. But it is idle to
look to such action for relief. This
class profit by scarcity but they do
not cause it. The difficulty is caused
by a scarcity of material, an abundance
of money and insufficient production.
Production must be Increased.
zone of the chief hindrances to pro-
duction is lack of adequate railroad
facilities. Transportation must be re-
established.
"There must be a different public
attitude toward industry, larger
COMPREHENSION for their inter-depen-
dence of capital, management and la
Dor. and the better ABILITIES for the
prompt and reasonable adjustment of
Industrial disputes"

Judge Evans To Hear
Country Bankers Suit

ATLANTA, March 17.-Hearing
in the case which has been instituted
by the Country Bankers Association
of Georgia to test the legality of the
universal par clearance ruling of the
Sixth Federal Reserve Bank, has
been set for April %, in the federal
court at Atlanta.
Judge Beverly D. Evans, of the
Southern Georgia District, of Savan-
nah, will hear the case he having
been chosen after Judge Sibley had
declined to serve on the ground that
he is a stockholder in some of the
plaintiff banks.
Both sides have made motion in
this case. The petitioning bankers
have asked that the case be remand
ed back to the state courts, claiming
that, despite the ruling of Judge Ell
lis, of the Fulton Superior court, it
is rightly matter of the state courts
to decide. They claim that the state
banks are involved, which do bust
ness under the Georgia state banking
law, and also that in this instance
the federal reserve is concerned only
as bank doing business in the state.
The federal reserve has made
motion to dismiss the case and Judge
Evans has called a hearing on both
motions for the date set.
Great interest is manifested in this
case all over the country and coun-
sci for state bankers in many diff
ferent states will be present to as
sist in conferences and to watch the
progress of the litigation. 1t is ex-
pected that counsel representing the
state bankers association in Mississ-
ippi, Alabama, Louisiana, Tennessee,
and other states in the sixth district
will all be present.
The petitioning banks are repre-
sented by Alex W. Smith, of Atlanta,
counsel for the Country Bankers AS
sociation of Georgia, and by Orville
A. Park, of Macon, counsel for the
Georgia Bankers Association, which
organization has joined with the
country bankers in the issue.
