"THE BORDER LEGION"
AT THE PALACE

1t meant death for any Rocky
Mountain prospector to even attempt
to trail a band of desperadoes in the
days when the gold came fastest,
as Zane Grey so wildly describes it
in her gripping story, "The Border
Legion, a perturbation of which,
starring Blanche Bates and Hobart
Bosworth, will be presented by Gold
wynn at the Palace theaere tonight
and Sunday matinee.
For years, these wolves of the
West have piled their nefarious trade
without fear of being apprehended.
There were sheriffs who dared to
give chase after these plunderers,
but none of them ever returned to
camp. A thrilling scene in THE
Border Legion, is illustrative OF the
free rein these bandits had in the
days of '49.

READY TO WITHDRAW
RECENT PROPOSALS
Invite President to Join II

London, Feb. 27.-The reply made
by Premicrs Lloyd George and Mil
lerand TO President Wilson'S latest
communication-on the Adriatic ques,
ton repeats the assurance that they
"never had the intention of making
a definite settlement without obtain
ing the views of the United States
government"
The reply. which is dated Febru
ary rs. states that the absence OF al
American representative had proved
in practice an almost insurmountable
obstacle to the success of the nego
tiations.
The premiers observe as fact oi
the greatest importance that Presi-
dent Wilson expresses willingness
to accept any settlement mutually
agreeable to Italy and Jugo-Slavis
regarding their common frontier If
the Fiume region, provided sucf
agreement is not made on the basis
of compensation elsewhere at the ex.
pense Of nationals of a third power.
Plan Is Ideal.
This. the premiers agree. would
be all ideal way of settling the ques-
ton and they express Willingness TO
do their utmost to reach a settle,
ment by this road. In order to fa-
cilitate this process they are ready
to withdraw their proposals of De
cember 9 and January 20 because
they believe if the parties princi-
pally concerned believe the allied
and associated powers committed to
supporting them in any particular
solution It will be more difficult to
secure a voluntary agreement.
The premiers therefore cordially
invite the president to join them in a
formal proposal to the Italian and
Jugo-Slav governments to negotiate
an agreement on the basis of with
drawal OF all previous proposals.
If, however this attempt should
prove successful, the French and
British premiers agree that the
United States, Great Britain and
France should once more consider
the question in common, with the
view of arriving at concrete pro-
| posals.

The newspapers express apprecia-
ton of and agreement with Presi-
dent Wilson's views with regard to
Albania people and say they are
willing to urge on the governments
interested that they should bring
their desires into line with the
American viewpoint.
With regard to the treaty of Lon
don the premiers state that its "se-
cret character" was due to military
exigencies preventing its publication
during the war.
The premiers declare they cannot
disguise that should no voluntary
settlement of the Adriatic problem
be attained the treaty of London
would become the only valid alter

say, in trying to find substitute

Administration Officials Ex-
pect President to
Sign Bill.

Washington, Feb. 27. - While
there has been no intimation as to
President Wilson's views on the
railroad bill, administration officials
generally expect that he will ap-
prove it. .
The measure was returned to the
White House today from the De-
partment of Justice, which ruled that
there was NO constitutional objec-
ton to its admission to the statute
books. 1t later was referred to Di-
rector General Hines for his opin-
ion. y
Mr.. Hines has made a study of
the measure and has said that he re-
garded it as about the best legisla
ton that could be obtained under all
the circumstances.
The president has before him re-
quests of the railroad brotherhoods
and the National Farmers council
and the American Society of Equity
that he veto the measure and also
the requests of other farmers organ
izations that he sign it and bring
government control to an end.
Administration officials have be-
gun preparations for complete con-
traction of the great wartime or
ganization into the body which will
act as the liquidating, agency. Several
hundred employees will find them
selves out of jobs with the delivery
OF their pay checks tomorrow night.

GOLFERS MAN
FINDS PERSH|NC
BOOM IN SOUTH
Willis J. Abbott, One of Edi.
tors, Calls it Indication
Of an Expanding
Movement.
BY E. c. SNYDER.
special COrrespondent The Bee.

Washington, Feb. 27.-tSpecial
Telegram )-Willis G. Abbott, one
of the editors of Golfers Weekly,
after a months investigation of
political conditions in three of the
southern states, said Friday on his
return that he was surprised to find
a widespread sentiment in the south
for General Pershing for president.
Particularly in the cities of Savan-
nah, Macon and Augusta was the
Pershing talk uppermost.
He admitted that from a political
point of view the Pershing senti-
ment in the south might be regarded
as negligible, yet at the same time
it should be taken as indicating the
expanding movement now on for
the great leader of the American
expeditionary forces in Europe for
president.
~The politicians are at sea over
the result in Chicago" said Mr..
Abbott, "and as we get closer to
convention time my judgment is
that even greater chaos will exist as
the result of contending interests.
In this situation | can easily
appreciate what a dynamic effect
the mention of Pershing's name
would have, not only upon the
country, but on the convention as
we'll, for Pershing is very close to
the mothers and fathers of the land.
He did everything he could to
bring the boys home as clean
morally and physically as they
went away and that has made pro-
found impression upon the best
element in our country.
"Pershing must be reckoned with
in the Chicago convention, even
though his name is not seriously
considered by the politicians at this
time. But we are living in a new
day and the old methods of making
presidential candidates are as anti
quated as last years birds nests.
Pershing would make an ideal cam
didate if he should be nominated at
Chicago. The democrats would
have to nominate Hoover at San
Francisco to offset him."
