New York. Nov. 26.-The exclusive
Union club on Fifth avenue was
guarded by police today to prevent a
repetition of the attacks of Sim Fem

Four men arrested in the rioting
around the club yesterday were to be
arraigned in court today Three were
charged with malicious misconduct
and another, w. NJ. V. Hoffman, Jr.,
son of a member of the club, with
carrying concealed weapons.
The riot started when a crowd of
Sim Feiners, assembling for a Mac
Swiney memorial mass in st. Patrick s
cathedral saw a British flag hanging
with the United States and French
flags, from the window of the club, in
honor of the tercentenary of the land
ing of the Pilgrims.
The crowd rushed the club and sew
eral persons gained entrance but were
thrown out by police. British and
French flags were removed but later
were hung out again and the crowd,
emerging from the cathedral, again
charged the club.
Fighting continued for two hours.
All the windows on the lower floor
of the club building were broken by
flying stones. The police charged the
mob repeatedly and there was brisk
fighting on the cathedral steps. The
streets finally were cleared and po-
lice cordons established.

Governor Allen today announced
appointment of a new commission to

resentative from Dickinson county;

Governor Allen has repeatedly stat
ed that he wanted new compensa-
ton law, but did not believe the leg
islature should display undue haste in
determining provisions of such a
measure. He stated today that he be-
lleVed the committee would present a
bill which would tend to increase
compensations and to insure to work
men a just return in event of accident
and also eliminate much of the pres
ent red tape encountered in enforcing
collections.
1t is probable that much of the ma
terial gathered by the former COM

Interest on Action
by Kansas.
Test Case To Be Brought in
Supreme Court.
SRROR IN The NOSSAMAN CASE
Issue of Anti-Cigaret Crusade
Rests on Decision.
This State Is Made Battle
ground of Drive in Z. S.

The Kansas anti-cigaret law is to
be tested before the supreme court of
the United States. Nationwide inter-
est will center in the fight which will
determine the. right of a state to exer-
else its police regulation in prohibi-
ton against use of tobacco in one
form while permitting its use in an
other.
Grant Writ of Error
Application for a writ of error was
granted by the supreme court today
in perfection of issues in the Nossa
man case from Harper county. This
case was decided by the supreme court
several weeks ago when it upheld the
Kansas enactment against sale Of
cigarets. Earl A. Nossaman of Harper
county was convicted on several counts
and appealed to the state supreme
court. He asserted the state law was
unconstitutional since it provided a
discrimination against the use of to-
bacco in a certain form only.
Practically the entire issue of the
anti-cigaret crusade centerS in the
Nossaman case. Should the law be
upheld, anti-sm oke workers will seek
to secure passage of laws similar to
the Kansas measure in other states.
Kansas statute, the cigaret campaign
would require complete reorganization.
Kansas Is battle-ground.
Kansas is being made one of the
vital fighting grounds in the anti
cigaret drive in the United States.
Enthused because of the Nossaman
decision, the campaign against use of
the Pill took fresh start. Miss Lucy
Page CASTOR of Chicago, has been in
the state more than a month and is
busily organizing for a fight to end use
of the cigaret in Kansas.
Pitted against the CASTOR forces are
thousands of cigaret smokers who op-
pose any regulation denying smokes
to adults The American Legion is
strongly opposed to the present cigaret
law and a move may be made before
the next legislature to secure repeal
of the existing law.
To Be Settled in Courts.
In the meantime the right of a state
to control the manner IN. which to-
bacco may or may not be used, is to be
settled by the highest court in the
land. Nossaman's attorneys did not
contend that Kansas could not enact
valid laws against use of tobacco in
any form. But when they passed a
law forbidding use of cigarets and
cigaret papers, it was asserted that
the constitution has been fractured.
The safe supreme court, tho, said that
the law was sound and affirmed the
Judgment of the Harper county dis
trict court where a fine had been as
sessed against NoSsa man.

WON'T TOUCH TAX LAWS
Lodge Says Short Session of Congress
Will Consider Appropriations Only.

Washington, Nov 26.-Scant hope
exists for the revision of the present
revenue laws before the special ses-
sion of congress to be called by Pres

ferred until after Harding takes office.

affecting international relations might
be taken by the senate in the coming
