OBSERVE 1O1ST
BIRTHDAY TODAY
By The Associated Press.)

Eureka, Kans. Jan. 21.--
George A. Gordon. who has
lived in the life time of
every president OF the United
States except Wa 3hington,
will be 101 years old tomor-
row.
Members of the family
claim Mr.. Gordon IS the only
grandfather of 4 civil war
veteran still living, and one of
few, if not the only man, liv-
ing today. who heard revolu-
tionavy war stories from his
grandfather who fought for
Independence.
"My grandfather, George
Gordon of Cumberland, Pa,
was u soldier in the American
revolution" Mr.. Gordon re-
lated recently. 1T was my
great uncle, William Arm
strong, who captured the six
Hessians and took them into
Washington's camp and in
reply to the generals ques-
ton as to how he captured
them, said faith, 1 surround
ed them. "
Mr.. Gordon, when 76 years
old and in i'll health, made an
overland trip to Texas and
had such experiences as being
caught in a buffalo stampede
and being chased by Indians.
He attributes his longevity to
temperate habits and an ac-
tive outdoor life. lie never
used tobacco or liquor.
Mentally and physically
alert, he approves most mod
ern progress.
"But," he asserted, "there
are some present day systems
of which l do not approve,
/ refer to style of women's
dress short skirts, low
necked dresses; also this
bobbed hair fad. Perhaps
more than anything else /
deplore the growing lack of
observation of the Sabbath"
Mr.. Gordon lost two sons
in the civil war Mrs. Hypatia
b. Hart of Seattle, Wash,
and Mrs. Lizzie c. Johnson
OF Denver, are two of his six
living daughters.

DEPUTY SHERIFF
BAGS TWO YOUNG
HOLDUP ARTISTS
Boy Is Forced to Walk Ia
Miles Back to klgodones
After Receiving Bullet
Through Head.

Fred and Joe Simon. two youths
of Is and 16 years respectively, rnn
into a hornets nest when they tried
to hold up the town of Algodones,
twenty-four miles north of Albu-
querque.
The two youths, armed with re-
volvers, entered the store of Fred
Miera at Algodones and demanded
his cash. They secured $1S and
ransacked the place. Then they
sought the open country.
Deputy Sheriff ]. M. Montoya,
chief deputy of Sandoval county,
was summoned. He caught the
trail of the boy ana chased them
fourteen miles before he and his
posse came upon them.
One of the boys turned at the
deputy and fired. The bullet went
wide and Montoya fired at the
youthful bandit. The bullet from
the deputy's gun entered the head
of the boy, but failed to hit vital
spot.
The deputy, having no accom-
modations for travelling, forced his
captives to march fourteen miles
back to Algodones. They were
taken to Bernalillo last night and
were to receive medical aid there.
The boys told the officers that
they We're tired and hungry. They
claimed that they had to have the
money. They will probably receive
preliminary hearing at Bernalillo
Monday.

DEEP SEA MONSTERS

tBy Tho Associated Press, ,

London. Jan. 21.-That the mon
sters OF the deep fight in groups
as we'll as engage in personal en-
counters, is testified to by Captain
G. Evered Poole, a commissioner
in the Gold Coast colony, who
writes the following to his
brother:
Between Sierra Leon and Sc
kondi we steamed through. for
over an hour, a blood red sea, and
saw some hundreds of whales
dead or dying on the surface of
the water. Some were just able
to move slowly along; few, If any
could move quickly. There must
have been a sanguinary battle,
supposed to have been put up
by sword fish. 1t was a most ap-
palling sight and the extent of
the bloody expanse must have
represented the death of many
more whales than were visible

RAIL CHIEFS To
MEET BIC FOUR
!. IN CONF ERENCEs
Plan to Hold Regional Meet
ings to Discuss Wages
and Working Conditions
Agreed to BY Carriers.

Chicago. Jan. 21.-Members of
the Association Of Railway Exec
utives today accepted the proposal
by the four railroad hrotherhoods
that their wages and working con-
ditions be negotiated on a terri
torial basis.
Resolutions accompanying the
proposal favored the appointment
Of regional committees to meet
with the four brotherhoods 'in a
fair effort to compass and adjust
all points at issue, no restrictions
to be imposed on the considera-
tion of any and all questions OF
wages and rules governing work.
ing conditions"
If a mutual understanding is
not reached the matter is to be
referred to the railroad labor
board.
The resolutions provided that
territories, In addition to the
eastern, southwestern and western,
may be established if roads in
such territories so desire, or the
railroads may deal directly with
their employees.
This action does not involve
an abandonment by the railways
of their pledged policy to seek a
reduction in the labor cost of
railway operations, the benefit of
which is to be turned over to the
public in reduced rates" Thomas
De Witt Cuyler, chairman Of the
association. said 1T simply repre-
sents an attempt by direct nego-
tiation and discussion with the
leaders of these four organiza-
tions, to arrive at a fair and
amiable settlement of the ques-
tions affecting these employees" "
Regional negotiations will make
it possible, he said, for the rail-
roads to consider both wages
and working rules at once when
dealing with the train service
men. This may mean, he said
that If the employees agree to the
abrogation of certain rules the
railways do not consider fair, the
railways in return may agree TO
continue certain wages. This In
effect reduces rules to consldera-
tion of a wage basis, he said.

Washington, Jan. 21.--Plans for
reorganization of the government
departments, as worked out by
Walter +. Brown, chairman of the
Joint congressional commission
charged with that task, were laid
before President Harding today
but were not made public pending
consideration by the president and
his cabinet and their transmission
to congress.
The proposals, however. are un-
derstood to be preliminary in ma
turc. They are said to enbody
recommendation for the consoli-
dation of the war and navy depart
ments into one department to be
known as the department Of ma
tional defense and for creation OF
a new department to be called the
department of public welfare.
The department of national de-
fense. as it has been considered by
Mr.. Brown, would have a secretary
and under that official under sec
retaries each for war and for navy.
The proposal that the department
OF labor be consolidated with other
bureaus in the department of pub
lie welfare is understood to have
been abandoned. Organized labor
and workers generally have OPP
posed strongly the wiping out of
the labor department.
Transfer of bureaus to the 4pro-
posed public welfare department
and to other departments is ex-
pected to be the point Of contro-
versy in the working out Of the
recommendations. The best infor-
nation available was that the
principal transfer to be recon-
mended were:
The bureaus of good roads and
markets from the department of
agriculture to the department of
commerce; the forest service from
the department Of agriculture to
the interior department; the patent
office and the bureau of education
from the interior department to the
new public welfare department.;
the coast guard service from the
treasury to the department. of na-
tional defense, and the consolida-
ton of all the secret service
agencies in the department Of
justice.

Chicago, Jan. 21.--Melville Il.
Stone, former general manager of
the Associated Press in an ad-
dress tonight criticized parts of
the constitution as leaving this
country without a leader and
condemned congress as lacking
men of high calibre.
He was a guest of honor at a
banquet given by the commercial
club. He prefaced his talk on
"some of our problems" with the
statement that this was the first
time he had ever felt free in an
address to say what he thought.
During the years l was gen.
eral manager of the Associated

Declaring that Germany, through
the war, had left us "a world in
which II was almost impossible
to live" because of the many
problems which were resulting in
chaos. Mr.. Stone suggested changes
in the constitution as remedies
saying it was unavoidable because
it provided three equally coordi-
mated branches of government
the judicial, the executive and
the legislative.
The judicial dominated, he said.

California, except regions adjacent

successive morning of killing frost

forecasted. Later in the day,
however, slightly more moderate
temperatures may be expected In
northern California and the great
valleys in the central part of the
state. The slow moderation OF
temperature from the southern
citrus belts is regarded as an ad-
vantage to the growers there. on
the ground that under these con-
ditions the frozen oranges and
lemons will thaw out gradually and
the crcp loss be minimized.
The weather bureau declined tc
discuss the amount of damage done
to crops, saying it could not be
ascertained accurately for ten days
Reports from organizations OF
growers, however. told of heavy
losses. An estimate of 70 per cent
damage in the orange crop at Por-
terville, in the San Joaquin valley
was made by the officials Of grow
ers' organizations there. acting in

had never been settled and that
consequently we faced many
complications. ...
"I think every student of our
system must agree that cur ma
tional congress is not properly
composed nor it's authority prop
erly defined" he said. The
seventeenth amendment providing
for popular election of senator's
certainly has not improved the
personnel of that body.
"And there is something very
wrong with the house. Its mem-
bers all seem to have district minds.
There Is no leadership in either
house-instead there is something
we'll nigh akin to haos.
"Out Of the confusion imposed
by a chaotic congress, party rule
has nearly disappeared at Wash
ington and a system of bloc con-
troll is developing"
Mr.. Stone said there already
were a farmers bloc, labor
bloc, the merchant marine clam
oring for q subsidy and the Ans
erican legion for a bonus.
"That policy is a bold violation
of economic rules that are ele-
mental and almost child-like," he
said.
MIR. Stone said that labor must
reduce its wages and he opposed
bonus for farmers.
1.-THE farmers may have been
wronged through some OF cur
legislation, but they must not use
that plea as a justification for
dipping their hands into the ma
tional treasury, for two wrongs

Day OF uncertainty.
1t was a day Of great uncertainty
in Rome and deep anxiety among
those who watched and prayed at
the vatican, for virtually all hope
of the popes recovery was aban-
doned even in early morning.
As the hours passed. the wonder
grew at the recuperative powers of
the pope which enabled him to pass
from one sinking spell and another
to periods of comparative restful-
ness and strength. 1t was this
changing condition that inspired
the pope at one minute and gave
rise to rumors of death by another.
1t was believed that if the pope
passed safely through the night he
would have chance of life after
the dawn, and so 1t proved.
In the early part of the day
sleep came and seemed to add to
his powers of resistance. Through
out the day great crowds gathered
around the vatican and a double
row of royal guards took up posi-
tions in the outskirts of st. Peters,
forming a passageway for diplo-
matte representatives prelates and
other notables.
Telegrams Pour In.
Cardinal Gasparri, papal secre-
tary of state. received many tele-
grams from all parts Of the world,
including those from King George
Of England and the king of Bel
GUM. The cardinal spent consid-
erable time in the sick room, but
entered the chamber shortly
after S o'clock. He said:
II came out to announce that
there is no further hope. The pope
may be considered as having vir-
tually ceased to exist"
This caused CONSERVATION among
those assembled and Gasparri was
weeping as he came from the room
in which the pontiff was dying.
And, yet, later in the evening,
more hopeful word was received
from the pope's bedside, and on
each occasion the spirits of those
in the vatican were raised, not
withstanding DIR. Battistinis con-
tinuous admission that the pont-
iffs condition was "most grave"
A Restless Night.
An all-night vigil which the
Associated Press correspondent
kept in the ante-chamber of the
pope's private apartment brought
evidence that the pope clung to
life only q thread. He passed an
extremely restless night resulting
from extensive congestion of both
lungs and from the agony caused
by shallow and rapid respiration.
When DR.. Battistini visited his
holiness early Saturday morning
the patient rallied somewhat. and
was able to exchange few words
with those in attendance.
When Battistini said to the
pope:
I'm going now" the holy father
smilingly replied:
But why don't you go. my
dear old man"
oxygen was administered and
appeared to give slight relief.

TENDER SHRUBBFRY is
BIIGHTED BY THE COLD

Los Angeles. Calf, Jan. 21.--
Extensive damage to the citrus
crop of southern California has
been done by the extreme cold
weather, according to orchardists
today. Their estimates range from
60 per cent destruction down to
20 per cent.
Horticulturalists said that an
estimate Of rs per cent crop re-
duction would be conservative.
The money value, they said, was
difficult to set but would run
we'll into the millions.
Market gardens also felt the
loss but this was far less serious.
Much tender shrubbery and fol-
iage around the homes here also
was blighted by the cold.
