ohio LEGISLATIVE
ISSUES SHOW CHANGE
WITH new QUESTIONS

COLUMBUS. o., Feb. 23.-Through
projection of new issues into the leg.
islative arena on George washington's
birthday anniversary the monotony of
taxation jangles has been broken.
Back of the change in the compen-
sation statute is said to be an extreme
ly interesting political history involv-
ing, in large part, the fortunes OF
Governor Davis, arising from the No
vember election and the preceding
primary election.
Bankers were to meet Wednesday in
their state council, which is repre-
sentative of the city groups and of the
that the reorganization plan would be
brought forward.
While state headquarters has taken
no position, the lack of activity by no
means has impressed leading bankers
here for the session.
Opposed to Change.
They talked of strong condemnatory
resolutions and asserted that they
could see no justification for the rip,
ping up of the state banking depart
ment. With those functioning in re-
cent years they have found no reason
to complain.
The bankers also prepared to push
the Chatfield bill, introduced, to per
init state chartered banks to take
stock in the foreign trade financing
corporation.
The contention as to the harm done
to the banking business by the reor
ganizatiOn plans is based upon feal
that the entire personnel of the pres
ent department will be reduced to the
status of mere spoils of office. The
| bankers assert that they have
, strong case, in view of the law, which
requires them to pay in fees sun
sufficient to cover the expenses of in
| spection.
Others Join Protest.

| statues operate efficiently.
The petition of the Ohio board o
! commerce, asking for change in th'
workmen's compensation law to per
nit the carrying of risks in private

act of 1917, recently sustained by thu
i United States supreme court, cam
at what the friends of the present Law
called a most inopportune time.
| The appearance of the petition wa
held to be ill-timed, because it wa
permitted to become public Tuesda
by the Ohio industrial commission
that the Ohio State Federation of La

GERMANY MUST STOP
SELLING WAR SUPPLIES;
RIGID ACTION, THREAT

LONDON, Feb. 23.-The allied con-
troll commissions in Germany will pro-
hibit shipments of war materials from
Germany to Argentina or any other
neutral country, If such countries per
sist in trying to buy munitions. This
announcement was made in British Of
ficial circles here.
1t was stated lthat despite the reply
of Argentina to the allied reminder
that the Versailles treaty prohibits
Germany from manufacturing or ex-
porting war materials. no drastic
measures were needed now for enforc-
ing the prohibition on shipments to
Argentina, but ii was said continued
efforts to obtain the same would bring
the allied commission to full exertion
of their duties.
Appreciate Advantages.
While it was appreciated that Ar
gentina, IKE other neutrals, would ap-
preciate the advantage of bargains in
| war supplies, it was declared this was
| impossible in view of the treaty.
| Efforts to obtain supplies would
only embarrass the allies and Ger
many. and particularly the latter.
which had enacted measures to fore
stall such shipments as were reported
to be preparing for South America, 1t

Adopt Washington,s Principles
Woodburn Urges in Speech Here

out. adding that there was in this
country a danger of excessive party
feeling. Washington, he pointed out,
opposed parties along geographical
lines" The Republican party repre-
Sented this. 1t came into existence as
a geographical party, and it's adher-
ents we're the northerners. Deploring
the excessivenes of party feeling he
admitted that while parties in free
countries acted as checks on the ad-
ministration and were looked upon in
diligently they should be mitigated.
The existence Of too much party
spirit results he declared, in questions
not being considered on their merits
but from the standpoint of party plans
and party expectations. Washington
in his idea that the presidency should
be above party feeling was mistaken
in part" DR.. Woodburn thought. He
called foreign influence 1.-The most
warned that the disrupting influence
unity in our country.
"Let Germany Sweat"
Declaring that Germany was being
given a chance to rehabilitate too
easily with the financial aid and con-
cessions of people of this country, the
| speaker asserted that she was being
allowed to recuperate for another
| war, and at our expense. His advice
was Let her sweat lest she forget"
Going back to Colonial days he re-
viewed the fact that Britain and
France were the International rivals
of the time and that their troubles
brought on intercolonial wars. 1t was
Washington's guidance and advise to
keep out of the affairs of foreign ma
tions that saved the United States
from losing herself in those quarrels
in early days. That we still maintain
an aloofness from European intrigue
and disputes was the appeal that DR.
Woodburn made and one of the guild
ing principles, which he said, had beer
laid down by Washington for the
country to follow.

NEWSPAPER PICTURE
OF ROYAL FAMILY IS
CAUSE OF CHALLENGE
lRy Associated Pressl

MONTEVDEO, Feb. 23.-The publi-
cation by the newspaper Ell Dia OF a
photograph of the royal family of
Italy during the recent visit here OF
Prince Aimone de Saboya aboard the
Italian cruiser Roma resulted in two
challenges to fight duels and the early
departure of the Prince.
One of the officers OF the Italian
cruiser challenged the editor, who L,
turn. challenged the Italian Minister,
but no duel was fought.
( Considered Disrespectful.
/ Ofrense was taken by the Italian
visitors to the capitals under the
photograph which they considered dis
respectful to the royal family. The
legends described King Victor Eman-
uel not as having the appearance of
one chosen to rule people, Queen
Dowager Margarita as small and in
elegant" and Queen Helena as 'big
and homely."
Lieutenant Giovanni Gallati Of the
Roma, according to the accounts, was
chosen by lot among the officers OF
the vessel to demand of the editor
either a retraction of the phrases OF
PREPARATION by arms on the field OF
honor
FL Dia's editor, Julio Maria Sosa
published his reply to the challenge
in his paper saying he had no ex
plantations to give, that he would not
recognize Lieutenant Gallati, as hav
ing been the offended one, but, that il
any offense had occurred, the proper
person to challenge was Prince
Aimone himself, as a member of the
royal family, or the Minister Of Italy
in Montevideo, or the. commander ot
the Roma.
Appoint Court Of Honor.
Neither the Prince nor the two
others mentioned came forward will
q challenge, but the upshot was thai
a court of honor was appointed in &C
cordance with the Uruguayan dwell
ing law which handed down a verdic
that the offense was not of a charac
ter to require resort to arms but tha
''the attitude of Lieut.. Gallati, found
ed on a private concept of patriotism
always to be respected, was perfectly
explicable and worthy of considera

Why should young screen player
possessing youth and a rapidly in

field to try his hand at directing?
That is the question Tom Forman has
been asked manv times since he made
his debut as a director in Ethel Clay
tons new Paramount picture, "Sins Of

TITS just a case of EXCHANGING a
limited opportunity for an unlimited
one" said Tom recently, explaining
his change. I'm young now, but I'll
grow older. I'd have to become a
star within the next few years, or
never. And then it would be only a
question of time when 1 would have
to step down from stardom With
directing it's different. The older I
got, the better I'll become, if things go
well. Moreover, l spent nearly two
