.DEM|NG DEFEATED
IN FAST GAME

Saturday afternoon on the high
school field the Douglas grid team took
Drming's measure. 20 to Il.
Deming football enthusiasts were
treated to a queer exhibition OF foot
ball. Both teams had a powerful Of.
fenslve and seemed to be able to gain
gorund at will. On the other hand
the team that was ON the defensive was
apparently helpless. The only explain
alton that can he offered for this pc
culiar condition Is that neither line
was PLAYING the game as II should,
when OH the defensive. II Is hard To
understand. The result Of this how
ever, was clever game Of you chase
me and then I'll chase you" Dem
ing had the last chase and Douglas
won.
The game opened with Douglas re
ceiying the bail TO tneir 4Oyard line.
II was at this early stage that Deming
rooters were given living picture Of
n seive In full operation. Douglas
scored their first touchdown In the
first few minutes using n line and
back shift that completely covered the
wings OF the Deming line. Harris
missed goal. Score: Douglas
Dcming o. Deming received and
Douglas proved to bc perfect gentle
men by allowing the Bulldogs to wade
through thcr. TO the Douglas 2O-yard
line. Here the first quarter ended.
In order that the second quarter
should start correctly, Demlng cOntin
ued their advance and Kelly went over
for score. Stump kicked goal.
Score: Deming I, Douglas 0. The
remainder Of the quarter was spent

Paris-The United States govern
ment, in it's note to the Council Of the
League of Nations on the question OF
mandates, claims an equal concern and
interest with the other principal AL
lied and associated powers in the over
seas possessions Of Germany and in
their disposition.
This was shown when the note sent
by the American State department and
laid before the Council of the League
was made public.
The council again took up the note,
considering it with particular refer
ence to this claim advanced by the Uni
bers held that America had forfeited
such rights by withdrawing, as an
associated power, from the Supreme
Council.
In the summary of the note made
public it was revealed the United
States declared it had never given it's
consent that the Island Of zap, an i'm.
portant link in the chain of cable COM
munications in the Pacific be included
in the territories subjected to the man
date of Japan.
The principal features of the note, in
addition to the points contained in the
summary, was the American conten-
ton of equal right and interest in dis
posing of Germany's overseas posses
sions. On this the note said: GAS one
of the principal allied and associated
powers, the United States has equal
concern and inseparable interest with
the other principal allied and associ-
ated powers in the overseas posses
sions of Germany and consequently an
equal voice in their disposition, which

dividuals in the new bill were among
those named as defendants in the in
dictment returned some time ago
charging violation of the Lever food
and fuel control act by an alleged
conspiracy to curtail production and
force high prices.
During the three year period covered
in the indictment, a detailed history
is given by methods of which it is
charged the operators and miners
worked together to restrict the pro-
duction and distribution of bitumin-
Gus coal.
Ban on Competition Charged.
The charge is made that the agree
ments entered into between the OPP
orators and miners provided that coal
should not be sold at any time for a
price that did not yield a profit to
the operator; that increases of wages
to miners should be added to the price
Of coal; that competition among OPP
orators should be eliminated; that no
coal should be sold below the cost
of production, and that the means of
increasing cost and production in the
price of coal should be by closing and
keeping idle the mines.
The operators established uniform
cost accounting system for the opera
ton of the mines, it is charged, and
by agreement employed a greater
number O. miners than was reason
