EVIDENCE for and against the move
- to impeach Attorney General
Daugherty made the sessions of the
house committee on judiciary exceed
ingly lively. In support of the charge
that the chief law officer had knowing.
ly appointed unfit persons to Office the
case Of William j.. Burns, whom he
made chief of the bureau of investiga-
ton, was cited. Letters from Chief
Justice Taft written when he was
President and from George w. Wicker
sham written when he was attorney
general, strongly condemning the ac-
tions of Burns in the Oregon land
fraud cases, were read into the record.
Samuel Gompers' secretary testified
that he called the letters to the atten-
ton of Mr.. Daugherty before Burns
was appointed. Next day Senator
Johnson of California tool the stand
and testified that he recommended the
appointment of Burns and that ION a
question of veracity between Wicker
sham and Burns, I'd take Burns" In
his W behalf Burns swore the Wick
ersham letter was "a tissue of false
hoods" He said Gompers had hound.
ed him ever since he caught the Nc
Namara brothers in the Los Angeles
Times dynamiting case. and that Comp
ers, hearing the prisoners were about
to admit their guilt, sent an agent to
Los Angeles to stop the confession
Thereupon Gompers went on the stand
and said this charge was without the
slightest foundation.
Chairman McChord Of the interstate
commerce commission was called to
testify as to the failure of the Depart
ment of Justice to enforce the safety
appliance and locomotive inspection
laws. He testified that Daugherty had
co-operated with the commission to the
EST of his ability.
Representative Keller of Minnesota,
who preferred the charges against the
attorney general, and some Others were
dissatisfied with the attitude of the
committee and said 1t evidently intend
ed to "~whitewash" Mr.. Daugherty. Mr..
Keller finally declared angrily that he
would prosecute the charges no further
before the committee.

ORANGE is to be left to act as she

but she will not have the active sup
port of Great Britain. That appears to
be the sole outcome OF the meeting of
the allied premlers In London from
which so much vas expected. First,
they fatty rejected the tentative plan
offered by Chancellor Cuno, which was
no surprise to Berlin. Then the vart-
Gus premiers submitted their proposals.
and after discussion they merely adj
journed until January 2, when they
meet in Paris. Poincare's plan, includ-
ing the occupation Of the Ruhr and
Essen, has been told before. Musso-
lini,for Italy offered n program for the
cancellation of interallled debts In re-
turn for reduction of German repara-
lions, with Great Britain not making
conditions difficult by asking that
America cancel the debt owed 1t. He
said II such a plan could be adopted.
Italy would help Germany In the task
OF reconstruction II not, then Italy
would back France In any action she
might decide upon.

a cancellation OF the French debt, pro

by a PREPARATIONS settlement satlsfac-
tory to Great Britain. Later he virtual

sisted on seizing physical pledges for
German good faith, Great Britain

would not oppose. The British re-
fused to be associated in any effort to
induce the United States to cancel its
debt, and Mussolinl thought America
should be left out Of the discussion OF
the problem.
There was lntimation from Paris that
Poincare. when the time comes, may be
satisfied with non-mllitary measures
against Germany, but he has he back
ing Of his cabinet In any case. Some

obligations.
y GOD progress was made last week
~ by the Near East conference in
Lausanne. Most of the time was
given over to demands by the allies
that the Turks give suitable guarantees
for the safety of Christian mInorities,
especially the ~Armenians, and to dis
cussion of the proposition. Lord Cur
ION, spokesman for the allies in this,
was supported to a considerable extent
by American Ambassador Child, who
not only stated his position before the
conference, but called on Ismet Pasha
and tried to induce him to agree to a
compromise. Lord CurZon insisted
that Turkey should join the League of
Nations and consent to the establish
ment of commissions to supervise and
assure protection for the Christian
minority populations. Ismet protested
that the presence of such commissions
in Turkey would result in the defiance
of Turkish rule and sovereignty. He
said he would accept n plan to put the
minorities on the same footing as the
minorities in Rumania, Jugo-Slavia,
and Czec~hoslovakia, rs provided In
other treaties. He pointed out that in
none of these countries does the League
of Nations maintain commissions to be
a constant source of trouble.
Lord Curzon's reply was that unless
Turkey yielded on this point, n con-
ference would come to an end. Ismet
took IA day to consider this, and then
announced that Turkey would join the
League Of Nations as soon rs peace
was signed. AS the league exercises
general supervision ove minority popu-
l~ations, this was taken as meaning that
Turkey will accept the leagues super
vision over the Christian mlnorities in
country. Ismet. however, insisted
Turkey would not establish n national
home for the Armenians. The allied
delegates expressed their satisfaction
with the Turkish decision and assured
Ismet the rights Of his country would
not be infilnged.
While on the subject OF conferences,
brief mention must be made of that In
Moscow whore Russia and Poland and
the Baltic states have failed to reach
an accord on non-aggression and dis
armament. Poland and the Baltic
states presented an ultimatum, that n
moral disarmament or non-aggression
pact could be signed Immediately, let
ting the commissions discuss material
disarmament later. The Russians re
fused any pact unless 1t included actual
disarmament, as they said their chief
reason for calling the conference was
to relieve the burden OF taxation
caused by large armies. The confer
ence therefore broke up.

Ralph E. Williams has served as Republican National
Committeeman for Oregon until he is the senior member
Of the Committee. s#%V
In June 1921 at the Committees first meeting after
the Inauguration Of President Warren G. Harding every
State cast its vote for Ralph E. Williams of Oregon fof
Vice Chairman of the Committee recognizing by their
unanimous vote his fitness and ability as leader to fill
this responsible position.
This distinction gives to Oregon and the Pacific Coast
much power and influence in party affairs.
Does the character Of the campaign Of the opposition
lead you to think that you get this kind of influence
and power in National Councils by the election of their
candidate? rt;
National Committeeman does not make appoint
ments-tha is done by the President does National
Committeeman legisate-tha is the function of Senator's
and Congressman; the business of National Committee
imam give attention to the affairs of the Party as an
Organization In this Ralph Williams has made aconSpic
uous success Had there been any legitimate reason why
Mr. Williams should not be reelected or any doubt as to
his loyalty and service to the party its canddatessit
would have appeared previous elections and before he
had shown the value of his services to the party by being
unanimously elected Vice Chairman by the National Com
mitteemen from the forty-eight States al
After Ralph E. Williams harmonzed the party why try
to disrupt it? III
By all rules of fair play, because of the work he has
done in the past he is entitled to reelection.
Having legitimate for opposing his reelec
on the opposition has circulated unfair misleading and
poisonous statements
We do not wish to insult your intelligence or your
of fairness and regardless of what the opposition has
done may do in eleventh hour attempt to impose its
poison upon you there will be no disposition on Mr. Will
liams' part to adopt their unclean methods

Il Killed Near
Mexicali During
Past Two Weeks

CALEXICO, June 27.-Twenty-o one
men have been killed in an around
Mexicali, Lower California, in the
last two weeks, according to official
reports in Calexico, just across the
international line. The compilation
was made today following the dis
covery early this morning of eight
dead Mexicans, two and a half miles
being in an irrigation ditch on the
American side of the boundary.
Several of the dead are said to be
agitators and revolutionists executed
by Mexican army officials in Lower
California. After eight bodies were
found this morning, American ranch
ers living close to the line reported
continual firing in the vicinity
throughout the night.
Americas authorities concerned
themselves today only with a body
found in the irrigation ditch on the
American side of the line, this being
the first of the eight discovered.
Marks on the bank of the ditch led
to the belief that the body had been
dragged from the Mexican side and
thrown into the water.
All efforts to identify the dead man
failed, but when the other seven
bodies were found on the Mexican
side and reports of the American
ranchers were received, the authori-
ties concluded there had been a
pitched battle of revolutionary ma
ture east of Mexicali during the
night.
