Gov. Robertson to
Have Early Trial
Penalty Provided by Law Calls
for Penitentiary Sentence
or $4,000 Fine.
BY The Associated Press.

Okmulgee, Okl., March "a
With the announcement by District
Judge Mark L. Bozarth that an ear
ly trial will be accorded the defend
ants, interest here centers in the
probable court action on charges di-
rected against Governor J. B. A,
Robertson, Fred G. Dennis, former
state banking commissioner, and
several financially prominent local
men in indictments returned by the
district court grand jury after an in
vestigation into bank failures in Ok
mulgee county.
Judge Bozarth said he would call
term of district court probably
within three or four weeks and
would, at that time, set the cases on
his docket. He pointed out that the
defendants must be arraigned to en-
ter pleas several days in advance of
the trial, but that it was not compul-
sorry that the defendants appear in
person.
The penalty prescribed by statute
for accepting a bribe with which the
governor and Dennis are charged in
joint indictment is penitentiary
offense, not exceeding 10 years or
$1,000 fine or both.
1t also provides that the officer
shall forfeit his office and be forever
disqualified from holding public of.
fices in the state.

Additional Troubles

New York, March 24.-Another
mishap was jotted down in the diary
of Princess Fatima, who came to
America, bejeweled, last-summer and
who now is in seclusion, with hardly

Jeweler, by Supreme Court Justice
Finch. The Judgment was to cover
a promissory note given the jeweler
last August.
Meanwhile Stephen Weinberg, for
merly secretary to the princess, was
having his troubles over purchase of
naval officers cloak for which he
was alleged not to have paid. He
went on trial before federal jury.
He also is held for removal to Wash
ington on a charge of falsely posing
as naval officer when he introduced

Responsibility
for Tax Levies Is
in ManyQuarters
First Essential for Property
Owners Bent OH Reduction
Is to Find Where the
Money Goes.
By PAUL GREER.

Who gets the money! If property
owners are wisely bent on reducing
taxes, the first thing to do is to ana
lyze the apportionment of them. The
bald statement that total taxes on a
piece of property used to be certain
amount, and that they have now
grown to another and greater sum
does not convey any new informa-
ton.
Everybody knows that taxes have
gone up. Responsibility for the
levies, however, is so divided up and
shifted about that the average tax
payer does not know who to blame.
In Omaha, for example, there are
five different assessment boards.
When a citizen receives a bill for
taxes, each OF these has share COM
ing.
The situation is much the same out
in the state. Perhaps it will dispel
some of the fog to examine in detail
the apportionment of taxes in various
parts of the state. The figures are
all taken from the books of the coun-
tv treasurers. For example, the res
idence of w. c. Wiley, 1920 Lorlng
street, Fremont, carried a tax total
Of s2l.sl in 1914 and S36.2S in 1921.
This is the way the Dodge county
treasurer divided up Mr.. Loring,s s
contribution, on a valuation of 81 1853

Wife of Former
Senator Hollis
Denies Divorce
Statement Follows Report of
Marriage of Husband in
Italy-Decree Denied
in Paris.

Concord, N H., March 24.-Mrs.
Grace B. Hollis authorized through
counsel here today--a statement that
she had not been divorced from
former United States Senator Henry
J. Hollis in any proceedings of which
she had knowledge or notice. The
statement was made after receipt OF
announcement that the former Sena-
tor was married this week in Italy.
'In December, 1915" the statement
said, MRS. Hollis obtained decree
of separation which does not give to
either party the right to re-marry,
from the supreme court in Concord
which then had unquestionable jur-
isdiction. The decree was obtained
upon the ground of abandonment. In
June, 1920, Mr.. Hollis filed a libel
for divorce in the French courts in
Paris and of this proceedings Mrs.
Hollis was duly notified She ap-
peared by counsel and pleaded her
rights as an American citizen and
especially those growing out of the
decree of New Hampshire and de-
MED the rights OF the courts OF
France to grant a divorce.
by decree Of July II, 1921, the
French courts sustained Mrs. Hollis
position and dismissed the petition.
The time for appeal expired on
March 10, 1922, and no divorce has
been granted by the French courts.
Mrs. Hollis also is ignorant of
any steps which Mr. Hollis may have
taken in any other European coun-
try and is confident that as an Amer
lean citizen. she is still the wife of
the former senator. Her lawyers
say that no divorce granted by
court OF any other country of which
Mrs. Hollis is not resident, or in
proceedings to which she was not
party, can have any validity in the
United States or in any other coun-
try recognizing the general princi-
Piles of international law.

Washington. March 24.-By a vote
oi o7 TO y. the iour-power pact,
foundation OF the accomplishments OF
the International conference OIL the
limitation oi armaments, was ratified
by the senate today.
There were four votes moro than
the necessary two-thirdS OF the sena-
tors present for this quadruple agree
ment stahilizing peace in the Pacific
and terminating the Anglo Japanese
alliance-an agreement which. taken
together with the navy reduction and
other treaties. constitutes a historic
achievement OF the Harding admins
tration and Americas greatest con-
tribution TO the cause OF world peace.
The Nebraska senators were split
in the vote. Norris supporting the
treaty and Hitchcock voting with
the opposition. Senators Cummins
and Rawson OF Iowa both voted for
the treaty. ..f
The senate's approval OF the key
treaty paves the way Tor ratification
OF the other agreements by the SEN
ate and OF all the treaties by the
other great powers.
Reservation Attached.
BY vote OF 90 to the senate
attached to the resolution OF ratiiica-
ton the so-called Brandegee reserva-
ton declaring that "the United States
understands that under the statement
in the preamble or under the terms
OF this treaty. there is no commit
ment of armed force. no alliance, no
obligation to join in any defense"
When the senate was all ready 10
vote on ratification. Senator Hitch
cock created something OF stir by
making parliamentary inquiry as to
whether resolution of ratification
applied also to the supplemental de-
claration of the armament conference
relating to domestic questions. There
was much dispute as to whether the
inquiry was in order. Vice Presi-
dent Coolidge, amid considerable con-
fusion, ruled that the resolution of
ratification did not apply to the
declaration.
All except the Brandcgee reserva-
ton we're voted down by decisive
majorities. Self-muzzled, the SEN
ate broke all records for voting. In
the course of four hours, 81 roll
calls were taken. Amendment after
amendment was attempted by the
opposition but the republican organ
ization, working like well-oiled ma
chinery, swept them down in order.
Numerous reservations met the same
fate.

Lincoln, March 24,-(Spccial Tele-

sity council, composed of representa-
tivcs of all Greek letter sororities,
met today and protested vehemently
against a university publication
known as THE Shun," published oc-

articles in the publication were made
recently in circulars issued by Chi
Delta Phi, literary sorority; Theta
Sigma Phi, Journalistic society, and
the Valkyries.
At the meeting today "The Shun"
was branded as more offensive than
the Cornhusker published last year,
which caused temporary suspension
