NUMEROUS BIC
CASES SET FOR
SUPREME COURT
HEARING TODAY
[RepubIIcan A. p. Leased WireJ


WASHINGTON, March 5.--A num-
Der of exceptionally important cases
are listed for argument in the su-
preme court this week. Prominent
among these are three cases from
North Carolina designed to determine
the constitutionality OF the child
labor act. The government had Sc
lected the case against Atherton Mills
as a test case for the group of ac-
tions but later substituted the
Drexel Furniture company case. The
decisions in the lower federal courts
in these cases all have been adverse
to the contention of the government
that imposition OF an excise tax upon
the products of a factory or mine
which employed child labor was a
valid exercise of taxing powers Of
the government.
Charles Ponzi Of recent notoriety in
Boston, because of his exploits in
promoting get rich quick schemes
will be heard through counsel in his
effort to escape trial in Massachu-
setts courts for alleged violation of
state statutes. Ponzi is nav serY-

morrow morning before the United

tion of the revised tax law-showed a

LIBERALS To
CANADA
TIME
IN Il YEARS
Liberal Prime Minister To
Take Reins Of Govern
ment When Canadian
Parliament Opens Mar. s
[Republican A. p. Leased WlreJ

OTTAWA, March 5.--For the first
time since 1911, q Liberal prime min
lister will hold the reins of govern
ment when the 14th parliament of
Canada is opened by Governor
General Byng next Wednesday.
w. L. Mackenzie King, the new
premier is the first of his party TO
hold that office since Sir Wilfrid
Laurier was defeated more than ten
years ago on his policy of reciprocity
with the United States.
While lacking much of the pomp
and circumstance that mark similar
events in Great Britain, the conyen-
ing OF the Canadian parliament is
accompanied by observance of many
traditions. A few relics of medieval
pageantry. borrowed from the moth
er of parliaments" at Westminster,
have been retained and probably will
continue.
The governor general in full dress
military uniform, drives to the house
of parliament in the state carriage,
attended by a guard of honor,
mounted and afoot. He enters the
senate chamber and occupies the
speakers chair.
Then a functionary known as the
gentleman usher of the black rod"
clad in silk knee breeches, silken hose,
buckled shoes, tailed coat adorned
with rosettes and a cooked hat, pro-
ceeds to the commons chamber, where
the members of parliament are wait
ing patiently and gives three re-
sounding taps on the door.
Cromwell Styles Prevail
The sergeant -at-arms of the com
liz
fashion of Cromwelrs day, goes to
the door and investigates the rap
ping. He returns to announce to the
speaker of the commons the arrival
of the messenger from the senate.
The speaker orders that the messen-
ger be admitted. In comes the gem
tleman usher who, after making
three low bows to the speaker, an
nounces that the governor general
demands the presence of the COM
mons in the senate chamber. Three
more bows and the gentleman usher
takes his leave.
After him comes the sergeant-at-
arms with the great mace Of the
commons at the sloe on his shoulder.
Behind the sergeant t-arms marches
the speaker of the commons. in gown
and cooked hat. Behind troop the
members Of parliament. AS many as
can squeeze themselves into the SEN
ate chamber do so and the governors
general reads the speech from the
throne. Then parliament is open for
business.
The first task is election of a
speaker, who always is a member Of
the dominant party.
For this office Premier King has
selected Rodolphe Lemieux Of Mon
treal, q. parliamentarian of 26 years
experience. He served as postmaster
general in the Itaurier government
prior to 1911.
Election Of the speaker by the
members is the merest formality at
