Because the Jury
Held no Women

SALEM, Mass, Feb. 2s.-Because
tht jury panel from which the jury
which convicted his client was
drawn had no feminine representa-
tion, Attorney E NJ Stanley today
filed a bill asking for a new trial.
The client is William McColgan, of
Chelsea. who was arrested in con-
nection with auto theft cases and
was tried in Lawrence.
STANLEY, who filed his petition in
superior Court, claims that, under
the law. the jury list must be made
up of qualified voters" and that,
inasmuch as women are now quail
fed voters" in Massachusetts, under
the 1920 statutes. names OF women
should have been in the panel list
in his clients case.

PERSHINC SOUGHT
TO HEAD RUSSIAN
RELIEF WORKERS
U. S. General May Re.
ceiye Offer to Become
"High Commissioner"
Especial Gable Dispatch to
The Washington Hersld.)
ny b. F.. KOsPOTH.

GENEVA Feb. 26.-The Russians
would like to offer Gen. Rershing the
position of high commissioner" on
the Central Relief Committee for
Russian refugees in Europe which
they are at present engaged in or
ganizing with the help of the league
of nations, the league of Red Cross
societies and the International Red
of the Russian Red Cross for Switz-
erland, told your correspondent.
The number Of Russian refugees
in Europe today exceed 100000
men, women and children They
constitute a nation without a coun-
try in the midst of Europe, a people
without money, without work and
without diplomatic or legal protec-
tion. To remedy this impossible
state of affairs which cannot go on
much longer without resulting in a
terrible tragedy or a grave menace,
IL is proposed to create a central
organization with executive au-
thority to deal with the Russian
refugee question under the follow
ing heads:
First: Repatriation of the refugees
among countries willing to receive
them and their emigration to dis
tant lands as permanent settlers
Second: Organization of medical and
other humanitarian relief. Third:
Organization of work for the refu-
gees. Fourth: Regulation of their
protection and legal posi-
tion.
The conviction Is very strong
among the Russians that some rep
American should be
called to preside over this relief
action for they feel that America
s the only true friend Russia has
left in the world today. And that
is why Gen. Pershing's name has
been mentioned in their debates.
One of the most urgent problems
which will confront the proposed
committee is to get 10000 Russian
refugees out of Constantinople where
they are doomed to physical and
moral decadence and to provide for
them elsewhere: another is emigra-
tion of the Kuban and Don Cossacks'
who are treated by the allies in Tur-
key and Greece not much better than
allied prisoners were in Germany
% South America. Brazil having de-
clared her readiness to admit lO,OOO
Cossacks as settlers.

the league of nations was startled
this afternoon when information
was laid before it that the Boil

Swiss Minister Dument who was
explaining to the council the re-
fusal of Switzerland to permit the
league of nations army to proceed
to Wilma to police the settlement OF
the dispute over that region.
The refusal, NJ. Dument declared,
was due to secret advices that the
Bolsheviks are Matching ambitious
plans and the Swiss feared an at
tack would. be made on the league
of nations army should it proceed
to Wilma.
Switzerland had been brought up
before the council for disciplining
in connection with her refusal to
pass the international force, but
the council decided this evening
that no harsh measures would be
taken.

ors to get relief from the pain and
torture by the use of ointments,

ment applied to the surface Of the

These remedies will prove bene-
ficial if temporary relief is all
that is wanted. But just as soon
as their soothing effect is over,
the pain and suffering return with
increased severity. This has been
the experience of other sufferers,
and yours will be the same.
Skin disorders, like other all

that can cause so much torture
and discomfort is deep-seated. and
comes from far below the surface
Of the skin.
The millions Of tiny disease
germs must be removed from the

all of the local treatment in the

such splendid results in similar

S. S. S. acts by cleansing the

The arrest of the youth, for whom
the greatest dragnet in the Chicago
police annals had been thrown out,
came as "a result of his having ac-
cepted a lift" On a country road
near Bloomington.
Dalton was plugging along. bur

tune, when a motorist pulled up be-
side him.
Want a rider this man. whose
identity was not disclosed last night,

why don't you take the rail-
road?" the auto driver asked.

That started the motorist think

papers about the bank robbery.
Went to Pool Room.
On reaching Heyworth. Dalton
had breakfast, and went to a pool
hall. where he challenged Hennessy
to a game.
The motorist, who lived in Hey
worth, went to his home.
The more he thought about the
young fellow, the more he thought
he was Dalton. He finally called
upon his friend. Joe Stevens, who
runs a restaurant where Dalton had
eaten breakfast. He told Stevens of
his suspicious. Stevens agreed that
the fellow looked like Dalton and
called on Draper and told him.
The marshal went to the pool hall
and after observing the player for
a few minutes. arrested him.
Villagers Surprised.
Half a dozen of the villagers who
had gathered stood around with their
mouths open as they saw the huge
amount of securities roll out on tho
floor. 1t was more money than had
ever been in Heyworth in a lump
sum before, and here it was laying
on the floor.
The president of the local bank
was called and summoned to the
pool room. The bonds were given
into his custody and, escorted by a
large crowd, the bank official car
ried them to his vault.
Dalton was the coolest man in the
bunch.
He smiled as he watched the pro-
ceedings, with Marshal Draper hold
ing a strong grip on his arm.
The marshal was afraid to trust
Dalton to the little. county jail for
fear some effort might be made by
the prisoner to escape or for Some
one to kidnap him for the reward
Four heavily armed guards were
placed over him in the home to
which he was taken.
