Ry the ILLINOIS PUBLIC OWNER.
SHIP LEAGUE. 127 North Dear
harm Street t'hleact IN

iOHielalS and members of the Pub
lie Ownership League having given
careful and detailed study 70 the pro
posed state constitution submitted hy
the recent Constitutional Convention
and 10 b voted on hy the people
December ~, 1922; and having
listened 10 discussions both FOR and
AGAINST the measure have come
almost unanimously TO the conclusion
that the document is thoroughly re-
dictionary and should be defeated and
that the Illinois members OF the
League should make an active cam.
paign 10 prevent It's passage and have
so decided by referendum vo,e.l
A brief statements of the reasons
fer this action follows:
|. Section q Of Article ? reads,
The Republican Form Of Govern
ment of this state shall never be
abandoned. modified or impaired" !"
Thus not only are the Initiative aud
Referendum which have been demand.
ed by popular vote been left out. but
the right of the legislature or the peo-
pie TO put 1t into effect would be pro-
hibited by this constitution II adopted.
,. While allowing measure of
home rule for Chicago it allows the
legislature TO take away this power
whenever il chooses To do So and
DOES NOT give home rule to other
cities in the state. nor allow them the
right to own, regulate and control the
telephone, electric, gas and street car
corporations. tSec. i7S fl
3. While allowing Chicago unlimit-
ed bonding power for the purchase
of transportation and water works IL
does not grant this authority to other
cities and gives no city the ability 10
purchase electric light and power
plants or any other utilities. lSee.
1872 etc.
1. 1t provides that, whereas under
the old Constitution water ways shall
not be sold or leased, without the con-
sent of the people, under the new
Constitution the state owned Illinois
and Michigan canal may be leased by
the Assembly for terminals. (Sec.
230.)
b. Section 40, Article 3, would pre-.
vent the enactment of bank depositors
guarantee law such as prevails in
many states.
g. Section eurtails the privilege
of the right of habeas corpus by
withdrawal of the right of bail.
Z. Section s, gives the Attorney
General or States Attorney the
power TO cause arrest of any citizen
by merely filing information" Such
a provision would enable such an oifi-
cial to hound out of existence any in
dividual or group to whom he might
be hostile.
&. Sections 8, IL, i3 and Id of
Article xl in the old constitution
which prevented the railroads. from
issuing watered stock are left out of
the proposed" constitution. The
railroads are thus given free hand
in this respect.
3. Tax exemption of forest lands
as provided by Section i46, would
enable coal companies and land speeu-
lators TO claim tax exemption by
planting few trees on their land,

WHAT THE OPEN
SHOP HAS DONE
FOR QUINCY

The census gave US population IN
1920 or more than 600 less than the
census of 1910. We have the distinc-
ton of being the only city in the
world which had less people in 1920
than il had in 1900, or 20 years pre-
vious. The Employers Alliance, its
successor, the Employers Association,
its successor, the Open Shop Associa-
ton and Chamber of Commerce
should be given full credit for the
grand fizzle we have made in the
population race. Low wages have put
Quincy on the blink.-Quincy Advo-

DETROIT, Nov. 13-(By A. p. y
A letter OF apology of athletics at
the board in control OF athletics at
the University Of Detroit and the
members of the university's football
squad, to Z. II. Greene, a linesman
in the recent game between Detroit
and Springfield college at Spring
field, Mass, it was announced here
tonight. The board also announced
il had disciplined the Detroit play
ers' involved in an alteration with
Green following the game.
The boards investigation disclosed
that player Nreeland of the Detroit
squad approached Greene at the
close of the game and profanely
commented on his ability as an Of
fetal. Greene is said to have struck
Vreeland and the player returned
the blow. other members Of the De-
troit team were criticised by the
board for failure TO interfere.
Regret was expressed by the board
that Greene failed TO use more
orderly methods Of retaliation, "
when he was criticised and added
that because of the action of the Of
fetal lit is inclined TO be more len
lent toward an offense that would
have wrranted Vreeland's suspension

SKI HAS ANOTHER

Having gone into the game of fight

After announcing he had quarreled
with his manager, ski said today
that he didn't want the Champion

Having that title is too much re-
sponsibility. I want to live in my

More misfortune fell upon Sikh
Saturday night when he was arrested
by the gendarmes for strutting
around during the Armistice cele-

no right to wear his old uniform
since he had been demobilized.
When the magistrate learned his

YANKS LIKELY TO
TRADE CARL MAYS
Trouble-Maker Certain to
Leave Team-Other Changes
Nav Follow.

NEW YORK. Nov. 13-Since the
defeat OF the Yankees by the Giants,
rumors galore have been spread re-
lative to changes that would be
made in the club before the open
ing Of the next season. Some of these
changes will no doubt materiaIize.
others Will prove to be mere piffle.
However, of all the rumors circu-
lated. one thing seems certain, Carl
Mays Will not be with the Yankees
next year. Ever since joining the
clubs Mays has been a bone Of con-
tention that has kept the team in a
constant turmoil.
The purchase of Mays by the Yam
KEGS from Boston after Pres't John
son had suspended the pitcher caus-
ed a wide split in the American
league that has not yet been healed.
The New York club in order TO be
able to play Mays went TO the courts
and had a permanent injunction re-
straining Pres't Johnson from in
terfering with him in any way.
Boston and Chicago sided in with
New York in the fight on Johnson,
UeInauQlNE LIldL ne DC OuSleu- Inc
other FIVE clubs remained loyal. For
a time it appeared as if the split
might cause the formation of a third
league.
Then came the unfortunate killing
OF Ray Chapman by a wildly pitched
ball by Mays. At one time it looked
as if the seven other clubs would go
on strike unless Mays was removed
from baseball.
Ruth and Mays have been at odds
ever since they became members OF
the club. and as a result discipline
has suffered.
It is limited that waivers have been
asked on Mays and that all the
American League clubs have passed
him up. However. it is said that
several National League clubs are
willing to take him on. All OF which
makes it look as if Mays might drift
out Of the American League before
the opening Of next season.
