q STATES ASK THE DISMISSAL 0F
 SUIT AT TACK|NG DRY AMENDMENT
Arizona One Of States To Join Federal Government In Effort To Defeat Case Brought By R. I.
IRepubIican A. 2. Leased wire]

WASHINGTON, March 1.-Twenty- one states joined with the federal government today in asking the su preme court to dismiss the suit brought by Rhode Island to test the validity of the federal prohibition amendment.
 Subscribing to a brief, filed by Charles E. Hughes with the courts permission and which asked dismissal of the case on the grounds that no justicable questions were involved, were Delaware, North Carolina. Kea- lucky, Louisiana, Indiana Alabama, Maine, Arkansas, Michigan, Florida, Oregon, Kansas, West Virginia, Ne vada, Nebraska, Montana, North Da- kota, South Dakota, Wyoming, Utah and Arizona.
 Dismissal of the suit was opposed in another brief presented by At torney General Herbert A. Rice of Rhode Island. who asserted that the is 'unassailable'' could ''only lead to anarchy and oppression"
 Arguments Postponed
 Another development in the pro- ceedings was indefinite postponement, by permission of the court, of argu- ments to have been heard next Mon day to permit appeals from Kentucky and Massachusetts. involving the amendments validity to be heard As sistant Attorney General Frierson in- dicated tonight arguments might be heard March 15.
 In asking permission to file the brief, MT. Hughes told the court that officials of 19 of the 21 states had communicated with him directly rela- tive to opposing the suit while the governors of the other two. Nevada and Kansas, had given him authority to include them.
 Rhode Island" MT. Hughes said in his brief. 'sdoes not bring it's bill of complaint to enforce any property right or any interest of the state which can be regarded as the proper this court may consider the question whether an amendment, not expressly prohibited by the constitution, can be adopted, it is submitted that there is nothing in the nature of the eighteenth amendment which exposes it to the charge of invalidity.
 Say Complaint GroundIess
 We submit that the conception in- volved in the bill of complaint, that an amendment duly submitted by con gross on the vote of two-thirds of each house and duly ratified by the legislatures of three -fourths of the states is still subject to judicial re- view and may be held for Raught through judicial action by virtue of 8 process of implied restrictions upon the amending power is a conception of the most extravagant character and opposed to the fundamental prin- ciples of our government. No prin- ciples of judicial action can possibly be invoked for sustaining such an au- thority.
 "The truth is," the brief concluded, that there is nothing left but a dues- tion of political policy with which this court has no concern
 Attorney General Rice in his brief declared the prohibition amendment to be revolutionary and a direct i'm vasion of Jurisdiction and power of the states.

FRENCH RAIL WAY STRIKE ENDED--
 WORK RESUMED ]
IRepubIican A. p. Leased WireJ

PARIS, March 1.-The strike on the French railroads ended tonight.
 An understanding was reached be- tween directors of the railways and the railroad men, and the national federation immediately ordered the resumption of work.
 Railroad federation delegates met railway directors on the initiative of the federation and an agreement was reached on most points of the fedora tion'S program. which really was not in dispute. Difficulty arose over pen alties to be imposed on the strikers. Finally it was decided to appeal to Premier Millerand.
 The premier's proposal no pay for the days of the strike: no punishment for refusing the formal request to re- sume work and a review by each di- rector in a spirit of justice of all other punishments proved acceptable
 Labor Claims Victory
 The executive committee of the general federation of labor issued a statement that the federation of rail- road men had advised the committee 1t had obtained satisfaction for all claims. The committee, which had already taken steps to cooperate with railroaders, the statement added, took note of the istuation thus arsing.

MONTESANO, Wash. March l.
 Four of the ten. Industrial Workers of
 the World on trial here on a charge
 of murder in connection with Armis-
 tice day shooting at Centralia, Wash,
 were called as witnesses for the de-
 fense today. One of the four, Bert Bland, testified that he fired from four to eight shots at men in uniform or soldiers who appeared to be attacking the I. w. w. Hall.
 Three of the four defendants de- clared the shooting which resulted in the death of four former soldiers and the wounding of others, began after marchers in a parade had started to- ward the I. w. " hall.
 Similar testimony on this point was given by Dr. Frank J. Bickford. one of the marchers. He said he had passed the hall when le heard com motion and with others ran toward the hall. He said he had reached the front of the hall when he first heard shots. but did not know if these were the first fired.
 Bert Bland testified to having shot at the former soldiers from Seminary hill, about 1900 feet from the hall. He said shots were also fired by Loren Roberts, another defendant, and Ole Hanson, who has not been appre- hended. He said they began shoot ing after they had seen men leave the parade and rush toward the hall and after they had heard shots fired from within the hall.
 O. C. Bland, another defendant, ad . mitted having gone to the Arnold hotel to protect the I. w. W. from an expected raid, but declared he fired nc shots, having cut one of his hands ill sticking the muzzle of his rifle through window pane
 James McInerney also denied hav- ing fired any shots, though admitting he was armed with revolver Ha said he was in the hall during the shoting, but did not know who fired | the shots
 Michael Sheehan. defendant testi- fled that he was unarmed and took 1 no part in the shooting

nothing. For instance, a man doesn't worry particularly If he has paid six cents freight on his overcoat, but if he is compelled to pay five or six dOl- lars more than he formerly did for a trip back to his old home, he thinks he is being robbed. Commodity freight rates impose the least tax on things in greatest use and the higher tax on commodity of comparatively linn tied use.
 There is a certain brand of saws manufactured in an eastern city. On trip to the Pacific Coast priced the saws in various cities, and found them selling for the same price in San Fran cisco as in the city of manufacture. What difference does the freight rate make in that case to the consumer? :? However. think the increased passen- ger fares to the Pacific coast make considerable difference"
 The public is going to benefit under private control. through the reawaken- ing of keen, competition among rail- roads. The individual responsibility of railroads, he said. will be enlivened.

 Charges that the faculties of Amer ican colleges were "filled with radicals" were made by Mir. Haldeman.
