Car Turns Turtle
No One Injured
Chicago Motorists Have Narrow Es-
cape from Death on Sheridan $
Road Sunday Noon.

Three Chicago motorists were pinn d
beneath a Ford automobile that turned
completely over on, Sunday afternoon
shortly after one o'clock near the
corner of Sheridan road and Pomeroy
street. The driver of the car gave his
name as Edward Jackson and with him
he had two friends. They turned from
Pomeroy to Sheridan road and for
some reason while crossing the tracks,
the car turned completely over, crush
ing the top. While pedestrians gath
cred to help the men pinned under the
car, each of them crawled out unaided
and unframed. After considerable
work the car was righted and later
taken to garage for repairs.
About ten o'clock this morning two
cars collided at the corner of Grover
and Pomeroy streets and a young lady,
whose name could not be learned, was
painfully but not seriously injured,
No report of the accident was made to
the police.
A touring car turned over on the
Birch road just west of the city Sun
day night just before midnight but all
of the occupants escaped injury, The
car was wrecked.

can now prevent completion of the
French plans for mobilization of the
necessary forces for the occupation
and that the actual occupation can be
prevented only by Germany giving am
pie guarantees that she will pay &C
eording to the decisions of the repara-
tions commission. Such acceptance by
Germany is entirely unexpected in po-
litical and official circles here and an
order mobilizing 10000 men of the
class of 1919 is expected at any mo-
ment. Orders for the mobilization of
the class of 1919 which would take part
in the possible occupation of the Ruhr
district of Germany, were expected to
be issued here today. Negroes are not
expected to be included in the forces
sent to the Ruhr.

London.-M. Jusserand, the French
ambassador in Washington, has cabled
here the outline of conversation he
has Rad with Secretary of State C. E.
Hughes. The American government,
the ambassador reported, desires TO
take no attitude on the reparations
question that would irritate the allied
governments. Secretary Hughes said,
added the ambassadors message, that
the state department has no further
communication to make to Germany
Secretary Hughes indicated prefer
enee that Germany should settle with
out the occupation of the Ruhr valley
as such occupation suggested kind of
war, NJ. Jusseran1s cable said. The

was entirely informal and sympathetic.
To Stage Naval Demonstration.
Premier BRAND said this morning
it would take twelve days to complete
French military preparations. eff at
the end of that time Germany has not
fully yielded to the allies" he de-
clared, "the French troops will march
I hope we shall not march alone" he
added. Great Britain will make ma
val demonstration if Germany refuses
to yield to the allies conditions in the
reparations issue. it was stated here
today. The demonstration, which
would not take the form of a blockade
would probably occur in the North
Sea, it was added. The Preparations
commission will advise Germany OF
the allies conditions within six DAYS
after the decision upon them has been
reached by the supreme council. Ger
many then will have six days in which
to give an answer which is required
to be a direct yes or no, without con.
ditions.

NEWBERRY-WINS
IN i. s. COURT
United States Supreme Court Sets
Aside the Findings of Michigan
Courts in Hard Fought Case.

Westinghouse Conviction of United
States Senator Truman H. Newberry
in federal courts in Michigan for con-
spiracy to violate the federal corrupt
practices act, was set aside today by
the supreme court.
The conviction of sixteen other de-
PENDANTS also was set aside The
court held that Congress was without
power to regulate primaries.
Justice McReynolds read the opinion
to which Justice McKenna dissented
as to the power Of Congress but agreed
as to the decision.
Chief Justice White also dissented
from the decision that Congress did
not have power to control all elec-
tions but agreed that statute had been
grossly miscontrued."
Justice McReynolds said that the
lower court erred in dismissing the
demurrer of the defendants.
obviously the corrupt practices act
covers also the primaries and other
preliminary acts preceding an cleo
ton" the court said. "The one ques-
tion here is whether Congress may
limit expenditures of candidate. The
source of such power is in Section a.,
Article 1 of the Constitution. This
gives Congress the power of regulat
ing the manner of holding elections
and not of elections.
Chief Justice White said. he con-
Cured in the reversal of the convic-
ton, but that that new trial should
be held.
Upon learning of the courts deci-
sion, Chairman Dillingham; of the SEN
ate elections committee, which has
charge of the Ford Newberry contest,
said the committee would meet in a
few days to consider the effect of the
courts decision on future Senate ac-
ton. Senator Dillingham; said it ap
peared that with the corrupt practice
law held void, the committee would be
without further jurisdiction.
Senator Newberry has not taken his
seat in the Senate nor participated in
Senate business since his conviction,
Washington Senator Spencer,
chairman of the senate subcommittee
considering the Ford Newberry case,
said his committee would proceed with
the investigation irrespective of the
decision of the Supreme court.

NOT RIPPLE
ON MAY DAY"
Police Fail to Find Any
Real Excitement on
Soviet Holiday.
STICKER MEN BUSY

"May Day" passed off without rip
pie of excitement in Kenosha and the
only parade during the day attended 3
church ceremony and it was not a pa
rade which called for the presence of
the police. If any meetings of anti
American leaders were held in Keno
sha, they were held behind closed
doors and without the slightest knowl-
edge of them reaching the police Off
GERS. There was no outward show of
red" propaganda and the only indica-
ton given the police officers that the
"reds" had been at work in Kenosha
were hundreds of stickers found pasted
on windows of the city on Sunday
morning. The desk of the secretary
of the police department was Uttered
with these stickers on Sunday morn
ing. They were of revolutionary ma
ture and the men who put them up
had evidently worked in all parts of
the city. Efforts to locate the men
who had used the stickers were futile.
Prairie avenue, Main street, Milwau-
kee avenue and all streets about the
Northwestern station were visited by
the men with the stiekers and in many
places half a dozen of them were
placed on windows.
Wild Rumors Are Afioat.
One wild rumor afoat today was that
the first man who went to work at a
certain factory was to be assassinated.
Of course, there was nothing to the
story, but just the same it gained wide
credence on the west side of the city
and it was said that number of
workmen were late because they feared
the result of being on time. There
was not sign of May day disturb
ance in any of the fields of industry
in Kenosha and employers said that
they had not heard of any suggested
trouble. An alleged invasion of fred"
workers from Milwaukee failed to ma
terialize.

number of questions relating to the
ACCESSIBILITY of the demonstrations be-
ing made in Kenosha. The government
seeks a city of from thirty to fifty
thousand people which offers many in
dustrial problems in connection with
child development. "There is no bet
ter place in the country or in the world
to study such problems" declared DR..
Windesheim. "The problems are all
here and waiting for a solution and
if the government will just come here
it will mean much to the future Of
Kenosha children"
1t is expected that the selection of
the city in which the demonstrations
are to be made will be announced with
in a fortnight. Leaders in the health
work in Wisconsin insist that it will
be Kenosha.

Washington.-In the absence of
official information, ali comment
on the decision of the allied SUI
preme council at London with re-
gard to German reparatiOns, was
withheld today at the state de-
partment. It was said that so far
as the United States was concern
ed, the situation was just where it
was Saturday night, when it was
made clear that the American gov
erslment would determine its
course after learning officially of
the action of the council. Reports
that Germany had sent new note
to the United States containing
modified proposals were met at the
state department with the state
ment that no further communica-
tion dealing with PREPARATIONS had
been received from Germany.

Expect Action at
Council Tonight

It is expected that the meeting of
the city council this evening will show
some real fireworks in the event that
the question Of the adoption Of day
light saving is reopened. With prac
tically all of the city working on the
extra hour schedule today, much of the
interest in the action of the council
has decreased. 1t is believed, however,
that the city hall will want to be in
line with the remainder of the city
and that the city may yet officially go
on the new time schedule. Rumor de-
clares that several of the aldermen
have admitted that the events of the
last two weeks have made a great
change in the situation and that while
they do not favor daylight saving any
more than before, the adoption of it
now is more expedient.

him, but Harris was held to the grand
jury in bonds of $4,000 which he furn-
ished. Mrs. Ruth Solons Bassett Har-
