 Samuel Untermyer, her counsel, took issue with the judge. The question of visitation on the part of the chil- dren's father, as well as that of their custody, was res adjudica'', he said, contending both of these questions had been determined with finality by Judge Ben Lindsey in Denver, Colo.
 Untermyer said Mrs. Stokes now stands prohibited by order of Judge Lindsey from removing the children from Colorado. He suggested that if there was an agreement to safeguard the children from stories about their mother" and other conditions were met, the Denver court might then per init Stokes to bring the children east every summer so they could visit their father.

 MERRY MAKING
Fantastic Costumes, CoIorful Decorations Dot Streets at
 Shrine Convention

SAN FRANCISCO, June 12- The great kaleidoscope of fantastic Orien- tai costumes and decorations that rep resents the annual imperial council of the Ancient Arabic Order, Nobles of the Mystic Shrine, began slowly to revolye today.
 Gaily garbed bands and patrols swung jauntily through the streets on the home stretch of their pilgrimage to the meeting place of the annual celebration. Bright splotches of color in the nobles' costumes-red, green yellow, blue and purple-drove the sombre gray and brown habiliments of work-a-day humans into the back ground as the temples of this Masonic organization poured their delegations into San Francisco.
 Tomorrow the parades, the elabor ate receptions to imperial diVan, and the business sessions of the imperial council, will begin, but today was giv en over to welcomes, to finding guar ters, and to band concerts and i'm promptu bits of merry-making.
 The mysticism of medieval Arabia furnished the inspiration for costumes and ritual, but western desire to re lax and be merry, and to make others cheerful at the same time, was the i'm polling motive for the rise of this or der, and today this spirit found ex pressioa in both music and noise, and in the laying of a cornerstone of hos pital for crippled children.

Railways Wage Fight

Delegates representing 100000 railway workers gather in Cincinnati to fight reductions in their wages. Their leaders say a strike vote prob ably will be taken.
 What are the railway workers com blaming about?
 Just this: That the Interstate Commerce Commission, a department of the federal government which has authority to tell the railways now much they may charge for carrying freight and passengers, recently or dered the railways to reduce freight rates.
 The railways, of course, have to obey. But they say they can make the reductions only if they are al lowed to reduce the pay of the men who work for them.
 So the railways have asked the United States Railroad Labor Board another government department, that has charge of fixing the wages oi railway employees, to allow reductions in pay. Already some cuts have been made.
 The railway workers object to this, They say if their wages are cut they cannot support their families and live in comfort And they promise g finish fight against all further wage cuts.

 "The Education of Elizabeth"
 Billy Burke, dainty Paramount star. has triumphed again. In her latest picture, The Education of Elizabeth 1, which is being shown at the Eagle theatre tonight and Wednesday and at the Central theatre Thursday, she is seen as a chorus girl, irrisitably fas- cinating, quaint, chic, rough and ready and charming throughout.
 There are numerous laughable say ings of the chorus girl and despite her uneopthness, ohe loves her.. When her education is in progress, there are scenes of exceptional interest and ap- peal and one leaves the theatre with the feeling that he has made the ac- quaintance of a decidedly worth while creature. That this is one of the best pictures starring Billie Burke, seen in many moon. is emphatically true.
