NOVEL BRIEF IN CH|LD'
LABOR LAW CONTEST Isl
SUBMITTED TO COURTS.|

Washington, March 8-A brief of
many novel and unusual features has
been filed in the supreme court by the
government in the Child labor law
cases, argumet on which was begun
late yesterday. In 1t Solicitor Gen.
eral Beck quotes Shakespeare at
length in support of the contention
that unless the people themselves
awaken to the fact that they them
selves must defend and preserve their
own institutions, and not rely wholly
upon this court as tutelary guard
ian," a serious if not revolutionary
condition may develop. The brief
also through an appendix presents an
historical paper on the French revolu-
tion, while parallel column methods
are used to emphasize parts of the
government argument.
Another interesting departure from
time-honored practices is that part of
the brief in which the government
attempted to tighten the responsible
tiles of the court in the present cases
by recourse to questions and answers,
which recall primary textbooks. 1t
reads in part:
"Q-Has the federal government
power to impose an excise tax?
"A-It certainly has.
"Q-Does the statute in question
impose an excise tax?
Alt certainly does.
"Q-1s this a tax in fact as we'll as
in form?
Alt certainly is"
The opponents of the tax contend

ence with the police powers of the

lion that the law was not proper |

the court is asked by them to consid-
err the motive as explained by Sena-
tors Lodge, Massachusetts, and Len
root, of Wisconsin, and by former
Senator, now Judge Kenyon, while
the measure was pending.
Several chapters on the constitu-
tional jurisdiction of the court are
given by the solicitor general in sup
port Of the governments contention
that the Judiciary cannot inquire into
the motives of congress when it's act
on its face is legitimate exercise of
one Of its reserved powers. The jul
dietary, it insists, has no power of
revision whatever over the legislation
Of congress except when concrete
case is presented between litigents
and an "invincible, irreconcilable and
indubitable repugnancy develops be-
twee a statute and the constitution.
In such case the court may apply
the government adds, the constitution,
and thus virtually nullify the statute.
It cannot otherwise "invade the field
of political discretion"
"Mrs. Partington's attempt to
sweep up the Atlantic ocean with
mop BROOM" and other quotation are
given in the brief in illustration of
the "futility" of an attack upon the
federal governments "comprehen-
sive power to tax"

Special Meeting
of Council Today
on Water Matter

There will be recessed meeting
of the city council this afternoon at
5 o'clock to meet with General Ebert
Wheeler, owner of the Palatka Wa
terworks, or his representative to
conclude the details of the transfer
of the plant and to agree on the price
of some of the stock which the COM
pany now has on hand.
At last nights session council pass
ed an ordinance regulating the prices
of the water to be supplied from both
plants. This entailed considerable
discussion on the question of meter
ing all services for lawn sprinkling.
1t was finally agreed not to meter the
city's new plant for sprinkling pur-
poses, but to fix a charge Of $12 per
year for each such opening and to
meter all lawn sprinkling openings
from the old water system.
The purpose of this is to prevent
the depletion of the soft or old water,
as the supply is limited to about
100000 gallons per day, while the city
consumes considerable over million
gallons. There was no change in the
rates of either company, the old wa
ter being furnished at the same rate
it was furnished under the old man.

cheaper at prices prevailing before the

buildings! There is a storm and a
tent occupied by two girls is blown
away. But Wallace Reid as the
artist hero rescues the girls in a
stirring scene and presto, the love
romance marches steadily on. There

The girl? Oh, she's Lila Lee. You
remember, she supported Mr.. Reid
in THE Charm School" She has
an unusually fine role in Rent

Reds support.
In Rent Free which comes TO

ing the busy little bee. Why? Be-
cause the busy little bee just works
continuously and turns out another
generation that works continuously
and there's never any improvement.
AS men, however, we ought to adj
vance far beyond all that. If we de-
vote the golden days to se~lf-sacrifice,
trying to accumulate riches, we
should have some charitable motive
back of it. If we suffer and toll we
should do so in the hope that u
descendants won't have to. We
should do so in the hope that they
will never have to worry about
moncy-that if we can't enjoy a life
of idleness and wealth, somebody
else can.
IT imagine some such dream was
in the minds of the people who ac-
cumulated fortunes for their de-
scendants to spend. 1t was a beau
tiful dream and the idle rich of to-

This will, in all probability be a
case for the county officials to de-
termine. The evidence points to a
gang or clan, concealed in Perth
Amboy, who were bent on the de-
s%truction of Schiadone. Where this
gang is, who they are and what Schi-
adone did to offend them are some
of the questions that the local po-
lice are anxious to learn.
From what could be learned about
the scene of the shooting. 1t seems
that Schiadone was being watched
by Fualo for the past two months as
the latter when questioned by the
Judge yesterday, stated he had no
home, which answer is believed to
be a steer by those interested in the
case. He later admitted that the
garage adjoining the store and home
o. Borassi, had been his home for
several weeks.
Where he was employed or just
what he did while in this city, could
not be learned.
Several persons tried to interview
the prisoner yesterday morning, but
Chief of Police Mcdonnell would not
allow anyone to talk with him.
A suitcase with a limited ward
robe, gave evidence hat t'ualo had
little to take with him wherever he
went. The prisoner was taken to

the court yesterday morning. where
he will await the action of the grand
