BELIEVE INJUSTICE
 WAS DONE MOONEY
District Attorney Tells Court That He Didn't Get Fair
 Trial

San Francisco, May PA state ment that the district attorney "be- lieves that an in justice was done IT the conviction of Thomas J. Mooney for a I9I6 Preparedness Day bomb murder, and will present to the gov ernor evidence substantiating this be- lief that will compel him to act" was made by Milton U'Ren, assistant dis trict attorney, in opposing a motion to release Mooney under a common law pleading.
 "When Governor Stephens com ing to life imprisonment it demon strated that there was a doubt in mind as to the defendants guilt, " U'Ren said.
 When U'Ren said there was. IN o remedy at law" for Mooney, Mrs. Rena Mooney, wife of Mooney, rose and cried: "Why don't you find a remedy?"
 The district attorney was compelled to oppose the present action on be- half of Mooney on the ground that if the common law writ was granted 1t could be invoked successfully by every criminal, U'Ren said. The action is an effort to obtain Mooneys release on a writ designed to obtain relief from fraudulent judgments under the Basic law. Mooney's counsel contend ed that his conviction was brought about by perjury and that all relief under the statutory law had been de nied him.
 The court took the motion for the writ under advisement

SENATE KNOCKS
 HOLES IN STATE E
 PROHIBITION BILL
Refuses To Go Volstead "One Better" and House Accepts
 the Ruling

The prohibition forces in Connec- ticut get little satisfaction in their efforts to foist upon the state a pro- hibitiOn enforcement act more drastic by far than the federal Volstead act, for when the state Senate got through Wednesday kicking holes in the bill as prepared and urged by the pro hbition forces, any old kind of a bOOtlegger could walk through them Then to make matters worse the House, where the "dry". farmer vote was depended on to put the matter over adopted the bill with the Senate amendments and the Connecticut Vol steaders will have to wait another two years. The policy carried out was in line with Connecticut's refusal to ratify the 18th amendment and a decision reached some time ago not to interfere in any way with the law, either to go 1t one better or try to amend it. In line with the latter idea, both branches also during the week refused to memorialize Congress ask ing for notifications to permit light wines and beers and so with the ex- ception of removing some old and ob- solete excise laws, little was gained. Senator Brown of Norwich, who has removed from politics by recently being appointed a superior court judge, led the fight for adoption of the drastic bill.
 Senator Bakewell of New Haven said the Nolstead act was by no means a final interpretation of the 18th amendment and in view of that fact, he believed it unwise for the state to take any action which might put greater restrictions on Connecticut people than are on people under only a federal law in case the latter should be modified.
 Senator Seymour opposed the gen. eral principle Of state enforcement of the prohibition amendment. If he had his way, he said. every grocery store and drug store would be allow cd to sell beer and light wines. Sen ator De Laney objected. It would de feat one of the principal purposes of the bill, he said, and 1t contravened federal law.
 Senator Seymour asked why this >blll was necessary Tn view of the fact that there was federal law on en- fore cement. It was to lend the state machinery to the giving of such as sistance in the enforcement of the law as 1t was able to give, replied Sen ator De Ianey.
 Senator Banks pointed out that the amendment would be in violation of the constitution. He wanted to SCI, the prohibition amendment so vigor- ously enforced as to force people back to sanity.''
 Senator Bakewell said, that, if any thing was to be done, 1t would have to accord with the Volstead act. He expressed the opinion that three families ont of five were ViO1atinQ the Volstead act-perhaps four out of five He called the state bill "hum- bug legislation" If we are really sincere in the effort" he said, the measure ought to be much more dras- tic and it ought to carry big appro- priation."
 Senator Seymour hoped the bili
 would be killed and said his hopes
 would be realized if only those who
 have not violated the Nolstead act
 voted for the bill. It was one of
 those laws that could not be enfcrvrd
 because they lack public sanction, he said

George L. Fox has now become a mimeograph. He had letters in the Hartford, New Haven and way sta ton papers all at the same time on Tuesday night. Yep, he was kicking about the state expenses.
 William Howard Taft, our distin- guishcd citizen, seems to have another job coming, according to the prognos- ticators. We'll, one good turn deserves another. He gave the late Chief us tice White to the country and in spite of Taft's recent affiliations, we be- licvc, if left alone, he won't be far from following in Whites legal foot steps.
 If Edison was to put up an cNaml- nation for those fellows who are try ing to put the City Manager plan over on New Haven, we have no doubt but that all would pass That charter they have propogated is just about as clear as EdiSOn'S questions to the average layman to say nothing of the college fellows.
 By the way, speaking of that charter -don't fail 10 read how the Dayton tax rate has gone up. It's on the first page and Dayton-as you know-is the father of all city managers.

 Many a widow in Connecticut will be glad that Col. Bob Eaton has been appointed again internal revenue col lector. No, not because she can pay her internal revenue tax but because someone may get Bob's state job that will really see to the widows pen sons.

HARTFORD CHAMBER RAPS LEGISLATURE
 IN OFFICIAL ORGAN
Calls House Silly and Suggests Fewer Legislators and Shorter
 Sessions

Hartford, May 27.-The May number ot "Hartford' official organ of the Hart ford Chamber of Commerce, issued Wednesday, charaCterizes the attempt of the House of Representatives to pass a standard time enforcement act as "in line with the general stiffness of that branch of the Legislature"
 There had been little expectation, 9 continued the article, that the Senate would fail to register popular opinion and not the viewpoint of Canaan, Union, Salisbury, Cornwall and Pennington, all though subjected to editorial guns of con- siderable caiber." The article IS one of three on the subject and bears the cap tion: Back to Sanity"
 Hartford will continue on daylight saving says the concluding paragraph of another article, Twill possess it's char ter and the rural representatives may continue on standard time, or adopt Hartford's practical plan, just as they please. Hartford doesn't care"
 Another detached item says: "Hart- ford is on daylight saving time. The General Assembly is still grinding along" "
 The leading editorial suggests that Connecticut could get along with fewer legislators and shorter sessions. It says =
 The New York state Legislature contains POI members. New York has a population of 10,000,00O. Connecticut has population of, perhaps, 1,50O,000, The Connecticut Legislature has approxi- mately 300 members. New York's Legis- lature began work the first week in Jan uary. Connecticut's got started the same time. New York's adjourned the middle of April Connecticut's is still coming into town three days a week. Is IS not possible that Connecticut could get along with fewer legislators and shorter ses- SiOns."

Washington, Dec. 14th-The Arms Con-
ference delegates have reached an agree
ment on all the major issued OF the naval
ratio, but are encountering new Difficult
ties in their discussions on the Far East
ern situation. The six 5-3 ratio forms
the basis Of the naval settlement, but
there are to be establishments in the orig
inal plan, to permit Japan to retain her
new hattleship 'Matsu". The United
States and Great Britain Will be given a
comparative quota of additional ships
not yet determined in detail. In the Far
Eastern negotiations the latest element
of controversy is a request by China for
%abrogation of the treaties resulting from
Japan's famous twenty demands.
When the request was presented to the
Far Eastern Committee OF the whole to-
Gay, the Japanese promptly objected and
the committee adjourned. Coming at a
time when the ~SbangtunQ negotia-
tons are at a critical stage the

gates remain confident of an ultimate

Three late today advances the naval
question nearer to the point CT final
and detailed settlement, but left some
minor points still to be determined. In
all quarters the announcement of a COM
plete accord was regarded as anly a
question of hours. AS an offset to
Japan's retention OF the 'Matsu" the
United States is to retain the super
dleadnoughts Washington and Col
oraoo'' and an equivalent increase in
British capital ships tonnage is to be
provided. The details of this British
increase constitute the only points still
to be decided. Coupled with the naval
agreement in the proposed treaty will be
a status quo understanding on Pacific
Notifications and naval bases, exclusive
of Hawaii and the islands Of the JaTan-
csc, Australian and New Zealand coasts.
The plan means the Abandonment of the
United States island Of Guam as a pro-
tential naval base. Temporarily, the
naval questions are receiving major at
tention from the n delegates, but
there were indications today that The
increasing seriousness of the Far Eastern
differences might soon require principle
figures of the conference to turn their
efforts in that direction.

Washington, Dec. 18th Declaring that
the new four power Pacific Treaty had
All the iniquities of the League Of Ma
tions, with none Of the virtues claimed
for that document, Senator Lafollette,
republican of Wisconsin today announced
in a formal statement that he was pre-
its ratification. Mr.. Lafollette declared
that the document, as it strnds, binds
the United States to recognize the title
of Great Britain and Japan to the vast
territory in the Pacific seized by these
powers under the treaty of Versailles,
which territory he added, was divided,
in accordance with a secret treaty nego-
tjated between Great Britain and Japan
prior to the entrance of the United States
into the war. Under the cloak of a
cor ference, made possible by a world
wide sentiment for disarmament, the
Senator continued, the diDlOm2ts repre-
Senting reacti0nary sentiment in Great
Brital France and Japan and the Uni
ted States have Matched in secret a treaty
of alliance which morally binds this
country TO 60 10 war whenever the rights
Of either of the high contracting parties
in the Pacific are threatened. For the
United States to enter an alliance with
the only great imperlaljst ma ions which
survived the war, is a rash substitute
for the peaceful anti-imperialist Uni
ted States policy tested by a CEN
tury and a quarter and based upon
friendship with all nations and en-
tangIing alliances with none. Article 2
of the Pacific Treaty as described by the
League of Nations covenant is as binding
upon the United States as it is possible
to>hi1d a country by treaty agreement,
to participate in whatever efficient
measures" that may be deemed necessary
by the powers party to the treaty. This
treaty will no more prevent War than cid
the alliances cOnSummated RriOr to 1914
the Senator said it will provoke rather
than prevent war and when we ratify it
we morally bind this country lin advance
to participate in any hostilities which may
arise in the Pacific where imrerialistic
interests are in most heated conflict.
Mr. LafoIIette predicted defeat Of the
treaty, saying it was inconceiN able to
him that the Senate should consent to
''such on act Of treachery as the treaty
contemplated.
