RESOLUTIONS
By TOM SIMS

You people who have the time and
wherewith to think must realize New
Year resolutions have been wrong
1921 years.
In, the past we have solemnly
sworn to stop certain things
In the future we should Solomonly
swear to start certain things.
It is simply case of the atmos-
phere overcoming the hemisphere;
the positive taking the place of the
negative, or a similar something
During these past 1921 times the
difficulty has been in finding simple
things to swear to start doing. 1t was
easy to locate simple things not to do.
You could swear not to make a
million and live up to it in spite of
all inclinations to the contrary
You could swear off shooting ele-

SETTLERS TRAILING
RENEGADE INDIANS
Posse Seeks Band Raiding
Utah Town During
Trial of Two.
By the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
SALT LAKE CITY. Utah, March 81.
A posse of white settlers of San Juan
county, southeastern Utah, early to-
day was reported hot on the trail OF
the band Of upward Of a dozen rene
gade Piute Indians who went on the
warpath at Blanding Monday after
noon.
In clash~late yesterday between
the posse and warning redskins one
young buck. known as Joe Bishop s
boy, was reported to have been killed
and two other Indians wounded. AS
far as could be learned the whites
suffered no casualties.
Escape From Sheriff.
The trouble at Blanding started
when authorities brought to trial
Joe Bishops boy and another young
Indian charged with the robbery of
a sheep herler's camp. Just before the
trial got under way a band of In
dians from Aliens canyon, near
Blanding, entered the town and
started making trouble.
Joe Bishops boy and the other
young buck were found guilty of
the robbery, but they escaped from
the custody of Sheriff W. f. Oliver
when he took supper to them Monday
night. The sheriff at the point of
a gun attempted to make the Indians
eat and by some ruse they knock I'd
the weapon from his hands and over
powered him.
Old POsey Takes Hand.
With the escape of the two young
Indians a posse of settlers was i'm
mediately formed and went in pur-
suit
There was but one telephone line
into Blanding and the warning red
skins cut that, isolating the town
Efforts to establish radio communi-
cation with Blanding from Salt Lake
last night failed.
Old Posey, an aged Indian. who was
a leading figure in the outbreaks OF
past years, was said to be taking part
in the present affair.
The Piute Indians in the San Juan
section always have resented the
coming of the white settlers, and
from time to time there have been
outbreaks OF a more or less serious
nature.
Pursuit of renegade Indians is a
task, as they are all well
armed with high-powered rifles, and
according to reports, have a large
amount of ammunition cached.
The San Juan county is mountain
Gus and once the Indians gain their
familiar haunts. apprehension of them
would be hard, possibly impossible.

MATERNITY LAW
UPHELD BY COURT
District Appeals Body Acts
to Expedite Effort to Reach
Supreme Court.

The District Court of Appeals, In
an opinion by Chief Justice Smyth,
today affirmed the action of the Dis
trict Supreme Court in dismissing a
suit for injunction brought by Mrs.
Harriet A. rockingham of Boston,
Mass, against Andrew w. Mellon
Secretary of the Treasury, and other
government officials, in which she
attacked the validity of the Shep-
pardTowner maternity act. The ap-
pellate tribunal waived a hearing on
the merits of the controversy, and at
the request of the Department of
Justice, acquiesced in by counsel for
Mrs. rockingham, formally affirmed
the lower court in an effort to expe-
dite the case to a hearing in the
United States Supreme Court.
The court declared the case involves
a matter OF great public interest,
which should be adjudicated at an
early date and assigns this reason for
not taking the time to consider the
question of the validity Of the act or
of the power of Congress to make
such legislation.
