skill OF the attorneys on the other
side, 1t seemed impossible to get
the case properly before the court,
or keep error out of the record"
Mr.. Goodwin said that during his
years as justice of the Illinois ap-
pellate court I'VE found ourselves
constantly confronted with records
which showed such palpable and
unmistakable errors as to make it
necessary to reverse the case, al
though it obviously had merit, and
although ii was a moral certainty
that had the errors been elimina-
ted the verdict and judgment would
have been the same
SLittle Less Than Crime"
These miscarriages of justice,
due to ignorance and incompetence
of counsel, are largely beyond the
power of the judges to control, or
of rules of practice to remedy. 1t
is to be remembered, however. that
the men representing these unfor-
tunate litigants were licensed by
the state to practice law. 1t seems
little less than a crime for the state
to certify to the competency, to
the learning and to the ability of a
man who represents his fellow cti-
liens in court who is not learned
nor able nor competent to repre-
sent or advise anybody in any legal
matter"

day of the location where Harry NJ.
Fields, under arrest in Detroit, was
reported to have said the pistol
ued to kill William Desmond Tay-

Deputy sheriffs made a search
last night on receipt of telegram
from Detroit authorities, containing
Fields alleged declaration on the
subject, but without results.
They also announced they would
look today for a bank teller who,
according to other information Civ
en- out in Detroit by Fields, changed
a $1,000 bill, in order that persons
named by him as having commit
ted the murder might have 5000
with which to pay him for driving

Washington, Feb. 23. Equality
before the law is impossible so
long as the rich and powerful are
represented in court by highly ed

of the poor and ignorant are rep
resented by unframed and incom-
petent men, former Judge Clarence

his opening address today as chair
man of the conference of bar asso-
Citations here.
Until such a condition is correct
ed, he said, there will be little JUS

The shrewd and powerful men
and interests of large means are
able to know who are competent

DEAN OF WOMEN
HAS GOOD WORD
FOR SORORITIES
But Mere S ocial'
, Ideals Wrong, She
Declares.

Chicago, Feb. 23.-The modern
university sorority need never be
ashamed of itself as long as its
aims and ideals get beyond the
mere social" feature of college
life, Mary. Ross Potter, dean of
women at Northwestern university,
told the National Association of
Deans of Women here today.
But the modern sorority must
cease setting up a false standard
of social prestige if it is to con-
tinue a beneficial force to society,
she said.
Speaking of the alleged social
prestige of university sororities,
she said:
Calls 1t Evil.
NO mortal or group of mortals
has the right to gain ends, at the
expense of another. For the good
of the sorority member as well as
for the girl outside, this thing is
an evil and should not be toler-
ated by an institution which pre-
tends to give equal opportunity to
all 1t is done when, in any way,
the sorority is made to seem high
er social caste. There is no social
caste in America"
Dean Potter suggested basis of
membership for sororities which
might be defined and understood by
non-members" and said that mem
bership should be entered into late
enough so that both sorority mem
bers and candidates should know
each other well or provision should
be made for severing the bond and
of transferring to another group
more easily.

SUIT IS NOT
WITHIN Law,
HEASSERTS
Contains Nothing in Which
He Is Either Interested
or Concerned.

Springfield, Ill. Feb. 23.-Lieu-
tenant Governor Fred e Sterling,
one of the FIVE former state treas
urers named by Attorney General
Brundage in bills for accounting,
alleging shortages of more than
$2,0OO,OO0 during their terms, to-
day asked that the case against
him be dismissed.
In a demurrer filed in the Sanga-
mon county circuit court on behalf
of Sterling and his bondsmen, II is
asserted that the suit against him
is "multifarious" and contains moth
ing in which he is either interested
or concerned.
The suit flied by the attorney
general, the demurrer charges, Is
without equity and is not according
TO law.
Questions Law.
Relative to the allegations that
Mr. Sterling, during his term as
state treasurer from 1919 to 1921
failed to deposit state monies with
in FIVE days after their receipt, the
demurrer declares that it was not
the law and that no SuCh duty us-
volved upon the treasurer.
The demurrer asserts that the
attorney general, in his bills has
not made or stated case which
entities him in a court of equity to-
any discovery or relief. 1t further
declares that the relief sought is
illegal and involves controverted
questions of facts.
Arguments on the demurrer prob
ably will not be heard until the lat
ter part of the next term of court,
it was said, inasmuch as the treas
ury suits have been continued, and.
it has been announced that no &C
ton in them will be taken until
after Governor SmalFs trial at
Waukegan on charges or consplF-
acy to defraud the state.
Other Suits Pending.
Lieutenant Governor Sterling is
the first of the five former treas
urers to seek an order dismissing
the civil proceedings. Suits against
Governor Small and State Auditor
Russell, as former treasurers, are
also pending in SangamOn county,
while similar suits against former
Treasurers E. E. Mitchell and VII
liam Ryan were filed in Cook,
county.
Auditor Russell is defendant in.
two suits involving h:s two terms
as treasurer.

LODGE AND NEW
SEE HARDING ON
FOUR-PLY PACT
Conference Has Bear
ing or, Senate Rati-
cation.

Washington, Feb. pa modified
blanket reservation to the four
power Pacific treaty, laid before
the senate foreign relations COM
mittee today by Chairman Lodge,
after a conference with President
Harding, met with immediate oppo-
sition from several Republicans, as
well as Democratic committee
members
The new reservation, intended as
a substitute for that proposed sew
eral days ago by Senator Brande-
gee, Republican, Connecticut, pro-
vides that nothing in the treaty
shall be construed as committing
the United States to an exercise OF
armed force without the consent
of congress.
Washington, Feb. 23-Advice of
President Harding as to acceptance
of reservations to the four-power
Pacific treaty was sought at confer
ences with the executive today by
Senators Lodge of Massachusetts
and New of Indiana, the former
chairman and the latter a leading
Republican member OF the foreign
relations committee.
The conferences generally were
regarded as having an important
bearing on the progress Of the Pa
cific pact toward senate ratification,
action of the foreign relations COM
mittee having been held up pending
ascertainment of the presidents
views.
Discuss Reservations.
Foremost among the proposed
reservations discussed by the two
senators was that OF Senator Bran
degee, Republican. of Connecticut,
providing that every adjustment re-
ported under the treaty shall be
subject to the review of congress.
This has been opposed in the COM
mittee by the Indiana senator, while
Chairman Lodge has not committed
himself. Mr.. New reiterated his
opposition again today after seeing
Mr.. Harding, but gave no indication
of the presidents views.
Stay An Hour.
After spending nearly an hour
with President Harding, Senator
Lodge declared on leaving the White
house, that he hoped that we will
be able to reach an agreement"
The chairman declined to dis
close details Of his conversation
with the president, but advanced the
opinion that the agreement which
he hoped would be reached on res
ervations would speed ratification
of the pact by the senate. He like
wise, at the time, would not reveal
his own position regarding the
Brandegee or other proposed reser-
yations.

10000 men
HIT BY RAIL
WAGE SLASH
Labor Board Virtually Re
stores 10-Hour Day,
Effective Mar. /.

Chicago, Feb. 25.-Another pay
slash, this time hitting 10000 rail-
road firemen and oilers, was made
by the United States railroad labor
board today when it was announced
rules effective March 1, eliminating
extra pay until after the 10th hour.
and setting Up a "split trick" of
eight hours within spread of II
without any overtime pay.
Following several other decisions
virtually restoring the 10-hour day
for railroad workers, the board to-
day authorized the roads to pay
only pro-rata wages after the reg
ular eight hours, which the board
retained in principle as constitut-
ing a days work. Time and a half
will be paid after 10 hours. In the
case of the split trick, straight time
will be paid for the first 10 hours
work, whether included in the L.
hour spread or not, and time and
one-half will be given thereafter.
Kills National Agreement.
Formerly the firemen and oilers,
all of whom work around railroad
shops, were paid time and one-half
after eight hours.
Sundays and holidays will be paid
for at the pro-rata rate, minimum
of three hours pay being made for
two hours work or less. Monthly
rated employees wages are to be
adjudged to eliminate the old time
and one-half provisions.
Ten rules regarding discipline
grievances, discrimination against
committeeman and similar matters
were remanded to the employees
and the roads for further negotia-
tions. The boards new rules sup
plant the national agreement made
during federal control, which has
ben in effect since Jan. 16, 1920.
