FOR STOCK SHARE
Stars and Stripes Wants JAM
ieson and Others to Appear
In Court.

II. p. Parks and his wife Mrs.
e. NJ Parks, and W. d. Jameson,
who figured recently in the invest
tigation into campaign funds by a
Senate committee at Chicago, Ill.
were ordered yesterday to appear in
the District Supreme Court Decem-
Der IT to show cause why they
should not be restrained from dis
posing of or transferring any or all
of the $4,000 of the stock of the
'Stars and Stripes Publishing Co.."
Of this oity, which they are alleged
TO possess.
The complainant, Joseph L. Hef-
fernan, one of the owners of the
soldier paper known as The Stars
and Stripes" says he entered into
a contract with Jameson. who is
the director of finance of the DEM
ocratic National Committee, and
Parks and his wife, to develop the
paper and incorporate the business.
The new company was incorpo-
rated in Maryland. Heffernan says.
with a capital stock of $500, ,0c0, but
only s101,000 of this was assigned.
OF the latter amount. 1t is claimed,
Jamieson and Parks and his wife
were assigned $4,000 and himself
$4,000. None of the defendants,
Heffernan claims, has kept the
agreement to put up their share of
the cash required to properly run
the business. He now asks that
they be compelled to surrender this
stock to him and pay the costs of
the case. His attorneys are George
i. Boyle and Raymond NJ, Hudson.

FIGHTS DRYLAW
FOR PHILIPPINES
Floor Leader Protests at Ex-
tension of Jones Law to
Islands.
Special Cable Dispatch to
The washinKton Herald.

MANILA, Dec. 11.-Mr. CIarin,
floor leader in the senate and chair
man of political relations, vigorous
ly protested against the Jones pro-
posal to extend the Volstead act to
the Philippines legislature and that
it is not within the province of
Congress to impose it's will.
Measures adopted by one people
imposed on another are highly ty-
rannical," he said.
II cannot conceive how democ-
racy can be invoked as the motive
for such an act. If Congress in
tends to intervene in matters in
which the Legislature has the eN-
elusive right to decide. it were bet
ter the Jones law, granting the
right to legislate on internal af-
fairs, were swept from the statutes
II know our rights and mean to
stand by them il trampled on.
There is no indication that the leg
islature has abused its rights.
Drunkenness does not exist among
the Filipinos.
Congress has the power to with
hold independence, but no power to
enforce prohibition. I predict that
the Senate will approve the formal
protest"
