Judge Urges Mental Tests
Justice TO Prisoners Demands
Them. Saws Levy

Judge Samuel D. Levy of the Chill
dren's Court, addressing conference
Of judges, psychiatrists and welfare
workers held yesterday under the aus
pieces of the New York Probation and
Protective Association at the home Of
Mrs. E. H. EsrrIran, / East Sixty
ninth Street, suggested that mental ex-
aminations be made before prisoners
were convicted. No judge, he said,
had right to sit in judgment upon a
prisoner until he knew whether or not
that prisoner was mentally responsible.
Judge Frederic Kernochan, Chief
Justice Of the Court Of Special Ses-
sions, advocated the extension Of men
tai examinations to other courts. He
said that central bureau with mental
experts in charge should be supported
by the city in view of the fact that
experiments have shown that such ex-
aminations are an aid in obtaining
justice.

Named American
Minister to China

Washington. May Cdr. Jacob
Gould Schurman of Ithaca. N. Y.
former president Of the Cornell Uni
versity and former minister to
Greece and Montenegro is under
stood to have been chosen by Presi-
dent Harding for American minister
to China.
Official inquiries regarding the &C
ceptability of DR.. Schurman are yet
to be made at Picking, but it is taken
for granted here that the selection
will meet with the approval of the
Chinese government ana that DR..
Schurman's name will be sent to the
Senate in the near future.
DR.. Schurman for many years has
been an authority on international
law and economics. He has trav-
elled extensively and in 1899 was
president of the first United States
Philippine commission. He was
first vice president Of the New York
state constitutional convention in
1915. His service as minister to
Greece and Montenegro occurred
during 1912 and 1913.

ACTIVE PREPARATION
AT DUSSELDORF FOR
OCCUPATION OF RUHR

Dusseldorf May 6-(By The Asso-
ciated Press) -Preparations for the
occupation of the Ruhr are proceed
ing. although the general impression
here is that Germany will agree to
the allied terms at the eleventh hour.
Two full divisions of cavalry are
now at Dusseldorf under General
Henocuuc who is in immediate COM
mand of operation He is organic
ing to effect occupation, if necessary,
between sunrise and sunset of May
13. first covering the heart of the in
dustrial region with mounted forces
and gradually replacing them with
infantry.
Genral Henocque said today that
he did not expect trouble. but was
prepared for anything. His opera
tions are planned with a view to
meeting a partial cessation of work
Although no general strike is anti
cinated, it is estimated that from 25
to IS per cent. of the German work
men in some industries may strike
if the occupation takes place. The
French, however, are ready to re-
place the unwilling workers and to
move out any undesirables. Negotia-
tions are going on for Polish labor
ers to fill gaps at the mines.

SENATE TO PASS ON
EMERGENCY TARIFF
next WEDNESDAY

Washington, May 6.-The Senate
by unanimous consent late today fix
ed next Wednesday for a vote on
the emergency tariff and anti-dump-
ing bill. Under the same agreement
it was decided to limit speeches to
ten minutes for each member on each
proposal taken up after noon of that
day when voting on amendments will
begin.
The action was taken after half
an hours discussion of the agree
ment, proposed by Senator Penrose,
who again urged the desultory de-
bate be eliminated. He proposed
hrst, that limitation of five min
utes be placed on the speeches after
Wednesday noon. His statements
concerning discussion of unrelated
subjects brought on exchanges with
Senator Reed, Democrat, Missouri,
who insisted that Mr.. Penrose was
using undue haste.
Il intend to make a speech on this
BILL" said Mr.. Reed. Il will do that
Monday and then I want opportunity
to discuss it's amendments as they
are taken up, although l do not sup
pose that my statements will change
the vote of a single senator or have
any effect on the country"
ut will not" interrupted Mr.. Pen
rose.
Nevertheless" Mr.. Reed replied,
Il want time to discuss this bill" and
he persisted until the agreement was
changed to allow ten minute speech
ea
Senator Simmons, Democrat, North
Carolina, resumed his discussion
against the bill, begun yesterday and
was followed by Senators Fletcher
of Florida and Gerry of Rhode Island
both Democrats, who attacked it
from all angles, Mr.. Fletcher assert
ed that Congress was pursuing a
ton of any kind under the present
disturbed conditions and added that
the farmers Whom the bill is claimed
to aid will be disillusioned before
it's six months of life are over"
Mr.. Gerry inquired why President
Harding did not make his policies
conform" referring to the Pres
idents expression of friendship for
South and Central America which
he said was out of line with a declar-
alton of n tariff barrier against Can
ada The tariff bill. Mr.. Gerry de-
clared. can not cement closer ties OF
the United States and its northern
neighbor.
An amendment extending anti
dumping provisions of the emergency
bill to the Importation of airplanes
was introduced by Senator New, Re-
publican, Indiana. Mr.. New said tina,
while there was no doubt that the
anti dumping provisions were in
tended" to cover airplanes, he felt the
matter to he of sufficient importance
to demand specific reference.
