The Administration had been kcenly

had given encouragement and support
to every measure which it believed was

every reason for us to consider those

MRS. LESLIE'S NURSE WINS

New York, Jan. 23.--The United
States Circuit Court Of Appeals has af-
firmed Judgment on n verdict for
S54 900 in a suit by Mrs. Annie :. ST.
mons. of Charleston. s. c.. against the
executors Of Mrs. Frank Leslie.
The suit was brought upon n promise
made by Mrs. Leslie in 1902 to leave
Mrs. Simons $50 900 in return for serv-
ices as a nurse and companion, already
rendered by Mrs. Simons, and to be
rendered by her in the future.
During the progress Of the litigation
II appeared that Mrs. Leslie, during the
latter part of her life, was accustomed
TO obtain without payment the services
of many people under promises to re-
ward them by her will, all of which
promises were broken.

Budapest, Jan. 23.--(By A. P.)--
Premier Bethlen has decided to prorogue
the Hungarian National Assembly un-
til February 10. upon which date It's
powers will expire. This action was
taken because Of the excited atmosphere
in Parliament and the provocative atti-
tudc Of deputies friendly to the aspira-
tions Of former Emperor Charles.
Count Rakowsli read Letter in the
yesterday from the former
Emperor, in which Charles pledged him

disadvantage of any other class. He
asks only for that consideration which
shall place his vital industry on u parity
of opportunity with others, and enable
il to serve the broadest interest.
Turning to the subject Of transpor-
tation, the President said that "if
broad vlsioned statesmanship shall es-
tabllsh fundamentally sound policies
toward transportation, the present
crisis will one day be regarded as a
piece of good fortune to the Nation.
ITO this time railroad construction,
financing and operation,' he added
"have been unscientifc and devoid Of
proper consideration for the wider con-
Germs Of the community. To say this Is
simply to admit a fact which applies
to virtually every railroad system in
the world"
Waterways have been too long
neglected in America, he declared. add

Is coal, for railway fuel" he said. 1.-The
| experience Of railway elcctrification
demonstrates the possibility of reducing
this waste and increasing efficiency. We
| may begin very soon to consider plans
to electrify our railroads. IL such n
suggestion seems to involve inordinate
demands upon our financial and indus
trial power, IT may be replied that
three generations ago the suggestion Of
building 26O, 900 miles of railways in
this country would have been secuted
as a financial and industrial impossi-
bility. Waterways improvement rep
resents not only the possibility of ex-
panding our transportation system, but
also Of producing hydro electric power
for it's operation and for the activities
OF widely diffused industry.
Telling Of the advantages which
Europe enjoys because of its easy access
TO the sea. "the surost and cheapest
transportation facility" the President
said that in the United States "is pre-
sented one Of the worlds most attractive
opportunities for extension Of the sea-
ways many hundred miles inland.
The heart of the continent, with
its vast resources in both agriculture
and industry" he added, would be
brought in communication with all the
ocean routes by the execution of the
st. Lawrence waterways project. To
enable ocean going vessels to have access
to all the ports of the Great Lakes
would have a most stimulating effect
upon the industrial life of the con-
tincnt's interior. The feasibility Of the
project is unquestioned and its cost
compared with other great engineering
works would be small"

KeatOn Goes Indian

Buster Keaton goes Capt. John
Smith and his Pocahontas one bet
ter in showing how a white man can
be saved from being skinned by red
skins in his latest droIl comedy THE
Paleface" which comes to the ISIS
Theatre on Monday.
The comedian never gives way to
a wrinkle of a smile as he goes
through series Of gags that would
send a chimpanzee into outlaws. He
passes through the funniest situa-
tions with an absolutely bland express
sion. In motise picture circles his
facial impassivity has become one OF
the wonders OF the world
In "The Paleface" he has the role
Of an enthusiast biologist who be-
comes entangled with a tribe OF red
skins out for scalps: and the droll
comedian has a hard Job saving his
own. His manner Of doing so, with
the aid of an asbestos suit. is so con-
vincing that the Indians hail him as
their leader and put him in charge
Of their aging squadron OF death.
Even the fat old Indian chief breaks
the redskins stoicism as he watches
the paleface pick arrows out of the
sky as calmly as If he were counting
daisy petals. But the chief himself
has a new self starter for laughter
in his unique manner Of mounting a
horse. He does so with the support
Of his staIwart braves who reproduce
battering-ram tactics IN getting the
high potentate on the equine.
