WOMAN PAYS, SAYS MISS KNOX
National Warning in
Senator News Defeat

THE Administration at Washington is beginning to
learn the result of its foreign alliance policy.
It was elected by enormous majority because
the citizenship desired to rebuke Wilson for his attempt
to abandon Americas policy of freedom from foreign
alliances.
It is now going to be defeated quite as overwhem-
ingly because it. in its turn entered into entangEng
alliances with foreign nations in defiance Of George
Washngtons injunction and of the historic precedents
Of the nation The oense of the Republican Adminstra
on is greater than that of the Wilson Admnisra
ton for the that the Republican Administration
leaders denounced American the Wilson policy OF
foreign alliances and pledged themselves definitely and
specifically In the clauses Of the Republican platform
and in the speeches of the candidates to the
Wilson policy and to abide by the policy Of no entan-
Cling alliances enunciated by Washington and repeated
and adhered to by all great American statesmen since
Washington's day.
The Republican Administration pledges re-
pudated the people betrayed and the President
and Senate sold Americas birthrght Of independence
for a mess of international bankers pottage.
Now the opportunity of the people to reaiate,
however Elections are on Democrats are beating
Republicans at the polls and where there is chance
of Democrat beating q Republican, anti Admins
traton Republicans defeating Administration Re-
pubicans at the primaries.
Senator New has been the Administration spokesman
in the Senate the leader of the pledge breakers the
chief exponent of the foreign alliance faction the de-
pendable agent of the International bankers. He has
just been defeated in the Indiana primaries by twenty
thousand majority. Beveridge, anti Administration
Republican, has wiped Senator New off the map,
tired him to private lfe where he belongs, and where
he the international bankers honoraby,
although less effectively.
American Republicans generally are defeating
foreign alliance Republicans, and, where they not
doing So Washingtonian Jeersonian Democrats de-
eating the betrayers of the American people and of
historic American principles and policies. But
member, gentlemen of the Democratic party, Wash
inQtOnian Democrats are not WilSOnian Democrats
The Democratic party must not repeat its mistake
of two years ago. If it does it will repeat its defeat
of two years ago. When the Democratic party returns
to power it must return to Democracy.

is NOW IN
D. c. COURT
Miss Van Winkie Asks Writ to
Free Her of Boards
Findings.

Complete exoneration Of charges
brought against her was sought
today by Mrs. Nina c. Van Win
kle. head Of the Woman's Bureau
Of the District Police Department,
when she filed q petition for q
writ of certiorari in the District
Supreme Court.
Objects to Findings.
Mrs. Van Wrinkle hopes. through
her action. to clear her record before
the pubic. the police trial board
having declared her guilty OF a lack
OF proper appreciation OF her Off, ial
duties. She also wishes to disabuse
the public mind Of the inference
contained in the findings OF the Dis
trict Commissioners. to the effect
that she had not applied common
sense" In handling the case concern
ing the detention and release of two
New York girl runaways.
The policewoman. represented bv
Attorney Roger J. Whitford. asks
hat the findings OF the police trial
board be reviewed and filed a petit
ton for certiorsri. Justice Hitz, OF
the District Supreme Court, directed
an order on The District Commission
ers directing them to transmit TO
the court within ten days the COM
plete record with all the papers and
documents relating TO the charge
and trial.
Mrs. Van Wrinkle also requests the
court TO direct the District Commits
sioners to strike from the record ell
OF the findings of the police trial
court withithe exception of the YER
dict mot guilty" and to strike out
from the record the finding OF the
Commissioners reviewing the verdict
OF the police trial board.
Petitioner also asks that costs q nd
counsel fees In the matter be as
sessed against the Ditrict Commits
sioners.
Mrs. Van Wrinkle attacks the por.
ton of the findings rejecting on her
as without warrant OF law and in
excess Of the jurisdiction of the trial
board. without justification or ex-
cuse either in law or in fact.
Claims Record "Clouded."
She declares that it forms "a
cloud" on her record and is sub
stantial invasion OF her rights"
The board, according to Mrs. Van
Wrinkle, lacked authority to render
any verdict except guilty or not
guilty.
She asserts that the District
Commissioners have unlawfully
and without authority adjudged her
and have made an official record
there of to be guilty of certain
conduct and actions, which. II true.
would constitute a violation OF the
manual OF the police force Of the
District of Columbia. without hav-
ing first afforded your petitioner
Mrs. Van Winkle) a trial as pro.
vided by law" The suit is filed
against the District Commissioners
and reviews in full the case and
circumstances which resulted in
her trial.
Lieutenant Van Wrinkle said today
that the suit against the District
Commissioners was filed at the sug.
gestion of Attorney Whiteford, fol
lowing a long conference yesterday
afternoon.
THE suit Is filed. and there Is
nothing care to add TO IT," Mrs.
Van Wrinkle declared. "It is a mat.
ter that Is now entirely in the hands
Of the courts"

clined to comment on the action Of
