FILES PLEA TO
CONSCIENCE
OF HIGH COURT
WidenT7dnrl Wants
Decision, on Suf-
frdge Case.

Washington, April 26.-An ap-
peal to the conscience" of the SUI
preme court is made in a brief filed
yesterday by Robert Widenmann,
an unsuccessful litigant. Assert
ing that the people are entitled to
be fully informed as to what, if
any, are the limitations upon the
delegated authority of their legis-
lative servants in proposing and
ratifying amendments to the con-
stitution," the brief respectfully
points out to the court that, until
it delivers such an opinion, sit
will not fulfill either its function
or its duty as a body of judicial
servants of the people"
Widenmann sought to have set
aside as unconstitutional the wo-
mans suffrage amendment and his
case was dismissed, without opin-
ion, on the authority of cases pre-
viously decided and which were
cited.
~Pe0ple's Masters"
Insisting that he is entitled to
a decision by the court stating its
reason, Widenmann declared that
unless he obtains it, the servants
of the people have become the peo-
pies masters, for they can exer-
else any power they choose and not
account to the people"
The public servants of the peo-
pie are full of 'petensions," he
adds, and not amenable to author
ity and CONTROL" especially over
their personal and private habits,
which is admittedly unprecedented
and extraordinary.
Members of congress voted for
the eighteenth amendment" he
says, lin opposition to the known
wishes of the people who elected
them" and assumed to exercise
powers which the people who elect
ed them had expressly denied TO
them as unconstitutional the prohi-
bition amendment"
The court is asked whether the
people have any public servants
whose memorable duty it is, in all
cases to explain to them how and
whence they derive authority and
why limitations on that authority
fail to operate"

one Of the most valuable members Of

Every pitcher likes to strike out

Pruett certainly has been poison to

Ruth has faced Pruett nine times

Nary a hit has the home.run king
made off the youngster. His hitting
against Pruett has been confined to a
