Lawyers than Mr.. Rainey that while
the State constitution does make pro-
vision for residence before eligibility
is established to go to the senate or

Jacobson entered a plea Of guilty for his
company and paid the $4,000 fine, con-
sisted Of fifteen counts.
1t charged that for Soma months, fol-

Carolina and other Southern States and
billed it to various Army officers IN

instructions that It be turned over to the

On this point, the Indictment reads

was not prohibited, although the defend
ants then well knew that said lumber was

WASHINGTON, June 17.-There's a
little bill, known as ''H. r. 734S," pend
ing before Congress authorizing Presi-
dent Harding to remit q fine Of S35. 900
that Federal Judge Thomas II. Hauight
Of New Jersey imposed on the Metro
pOlitan Lumber Company OF Newark, n.
J., on Sept. s. 1919. for violating wartime
shipping regulations.
The Metropolitan Lumber Company is,
to all intents and purposes, Jacob Jacob
son Of Newark, its president, secretary
and treasurer. jacobson and his COM
pany were Jointly indicted by the Fed
eral Grand Jury, but the indictments
against Jacobson were dismissed when he
walked into court and paid the $50, 900
fine for his company.
Jacobson has been tireless in his eff
forts to get that $500 back. His relief
bill was not introduced by any member of
the New Jersey delegation, but by Rep
resentative George S. Graham of Pennsyl-
vania.
Jacobson's argument for his bill is
unique.
1.-The war is over" he says. ''Why not
forget wartime antimosIties? Every foot

shipped to New Jersey from the South in

eral Of the leading clubs in the city. In
the latter connection, Mrs. Westfall was
a leader in establishing one of the first
girls lunch clubs of Chicago, the Noon
Day Rest, with evening classes and a
summer home. This furnished an ex-
ample for many similar clubs for work
ing girls.
In 1907 Mrs. Westfall became a mem
Der of the board OF managers of the
Women's Home Mission Society, two
years later being made corresponding
secretary. When the Womens Baptist
Home Mission Societies of Michigan and
those with headquarters In Boston and
Chicago were consolidated and the

cooperating society of the Northern
Baptist Convention, Mrs. Westfall was
brought into active leadership in var

tional boards and committees and she
now is executive secretary of this i'm.

Committee Has Two Vacancies
w. G. B0bbs Mentioned

meeting Of the Republican State come
mittee has been called for next Thursday
by Secretary Frederick f. Schortemeiar
when it is expected two vacancies on the

meier received word from the State
chairman, Lawrence Lyons, who is in

Republican leaders, to send out notices
OF the meeting.
A vice chairman was not named By the
committee when It reorganized because
Of q proposal to change the rules and
select three one Of whom should be a
woman. 1t IS understood this proposal
was discussed during the parleys held
by Chairman Lyons, Senator Watson, and
others in Washington.
The position Of treasurer also Is to be
filed. Only one name has been men
toned frequently in connection with this
office, that Of William c. Bobbs. Mr..
Bobbs was one Of the strongest supporters
Of Albert J. Beveridge in the primary
campaign and his selection has been
urged to give Beveridge supporters rep
resentation on the committee. He, how
ever, has declined the tender and the
State committee is now casting about
for another prominent Beveridge man.
