PEYOTE BERRY
LOWERS MORALE
OF INDIANS

Pierre, S. D., Oct. 23.-Peyote, q
berry from a species of cactus grow
ing in the Southwest, is held respon-
sible by Rudolph Hertz, head of the
missionary work of the Congrega-
tional and Presbyterian churches
among the Dakota CA Sioux Indi-
ans, for a threatened decline of re-
ligious influences among the Indi-
ans.
Recently there was incorporated
under the laws of South Dakota a
church of Native Americans, located
on the Pine Ridge reservation near
the town of Allen. Mr.. Hertz de-
clares that the religion practiced by
members of this church is baesd up
on the narcotic effects of the Pey-
ote berry, which produces fanciful
visions in the brain of the user.
The missionary worker. said that
the sect is gaining recruits among
the younger Indians of North and
South Dakota and estimated that
there are about 200 members of the
church at present.
1t is expected that the meeting
here tomorrow, called by Charles H.
Burke, United States Indian Com
missioner, will take up the question
and recommend that an embargo be
placed on the importation of Peyote.
The supply now comes through the
mails, the missionary said.

INDIAN MAID
JOINS RANKS
OF FLAPPERS

Hatfield, Wis, Oct. 23.-Princes,
,Newana, Winncbago Indian beauty of
Hatfield, Wis.,, upset a thousand
years of tradition and her own do
mestic life when she bobbed her hair
and introduced her fellow Redmen
to flapperism. Her father, Chief
Running Wolf, and her husband, Dan
Gaytish, put on a war dance that
made the silent forests sound like
reunion of boilermakers.
After the storm had cleared Me-
wana found herself an exile so far
as her relatives were concerned. But
not being disturbed she accepted her
misfortune with smile and that
evening she and her little son turned
their backs on the old reservation.
Newana isn't worrying about the
future. An uncle who lived in Ne
braska died two years ago and left
her $4,000 in cash and large tract
of land.

as football men of the North Da-

ing out on the North side of the
campus the aggie girls are getting
their exercise on the southside. Hoe

No known aggregation of men ath-

are the stockings. But the sweaters
and waists are everything. Like the
rainbow they range from red to
violet when the first rainbow WAS

j. S. BONE DRY
SHIP RULING
SUSTAINED
Federal Judge Hand Decides
For Government on All
Points
TO BE APPEALED
Stay of Execution Is Extend
ed on Promise For an
Early Appeal
(By the Associated Press)

New York, Oct. 23.-Federal Judge
Learned Hand today handed down a
decision dismissing the motion of
foreign and American ship compa-
nias for permanent Injunction re-
straining federal prohibition agents
from putting into effect the bone dry
ruling of Attorney General Daugh-
erty. He extended the stay tempor-
arily, however, providing that the
steamship companies file an immedi-
ate appeal to the United States su-
preme court.
Judge Hand decided in favor of
the government on all points. The
decision wa), rendered on the specific
matter of the application of foreign
lines for an injunction protecting
from seizure such ships carrying IL
9uor under seal on the eastbound
voyage from the United States.
The decision applies to both for
eign and American lines because Of
the statement made by Judge Hand
during the injunction proceedings last
week that defeat of the motion of
the foreign lines would naturally
bring about defeat of the American
lines motion for an injunction.
The temporary extension of the
stay granted by Judge Hand applies
only to liquor to be used as supplies
for members of ships crews on the
eastbound voyage to Europe. This
extension was granted on the fur
nishing of bond of $4,000 by the
steamship companies to guarantee
that the liquor would not be used
for any other purposes than the one
stipulated. ...
Everett Masten of counsel for the
White Star Line, announced that his
firm an Representatives of the
twelve other foreign and domestic
lines represented in the proceedings
would bring an, appeal as soon as
possible.

PEACE C0NFAB
PLANS MADE
Soviet Russia Will Be Left
Out of First

Paris, Oct. 23.-The British,
French, French and Italian foreign
offices are exchanging, views re-
garding the form of invitation to
be issued to the Near East peace
conference set for Nov. 13 at Laus-
anne. Eight powers-FraNce, Great
Britain, Italy, Japan, Turkey,
Greece, Jugo Slavia and Rumania
will receive invitations.
The Soviet Russian government
will be invited only to the second
conference which will deal with the
question of the Dardanelles, the
allies being under the impression
that Foreign Minister Tchitcherin's
insistence that Russia be invited to
the first parley has in view the
tacit recognition Of the Soviet gov
ernment by the powers which they
are not ready to give.

Demonstration Against
Government
(By the Associated Press)

Athens, Oct. 23.-The Greek revo-
luton was acclaimed at mass
meeting in the Place de Laconstitu-
'tion yesterday. Citizens of Athens

while airplanes released thousands
of bulletins voicing the nations
greeting to the "all saving revolu-
ton" Cries of death to the trait
ors" arose when Colonel Plastiras,
member of the committee, outlin-
ing the aims Of the revolutionary,
criticized those groups, who charg-
ed, while seeking to lay the blame
for the disaster in Asia Minor up
on the army, were themselves solely
responsible for their misdemean ors
for the nations misfortune.
This was an illusion to the impri-
soned former premiers and military
officials whose trial for treason
awaits the decision of the next ma
tional assembly. .,...
The manifestation was arraigncd
by various public organizations who
presented the revolutionary COM
mittee with resolution approving
the, abdication Of Constantine, "who
can never remount the throne of
Greece 2" The resolution proclaimed
that Greece's place in the world is
beside her natural and traditional
allies" and demanded national ef-
fort to dissipate all misunderstand-
ings between Greece and the entente
countries. '..
In the evening after the meeting
a crowd paraded through the streets
shouting for Venizelos.
