Kansas took a lead early in the
game with a touchdown and Missouri.
with a drive that was not to be de-
MED, came from behind in the third
quarter and chalked up ten points. 1t
looked like a Missouri victory.
Then came the fourth quarter. The
Aggies have a quarter by the name Of
Swartz, who is one of the best foot.
ball strategists in the West The
smart player In baseball is the one
who pulls the unexpected. The man
who can cross up the opposition.
The Aggies had worked the ball
down to the Missouri thirty-yard line.
They had worked a series of forward
passes that We're bewildering.
Defense Frantic
It looked as though it was their one
method of attack that would win, if
any. Missouri secondary defense was
back, working frantically to break up
that aerial attack.
Swartz did the passing with dead
ly accuracy. He dropped back to
make another pass. The Missouri
defense ran back to break 1t up.
Swartz grabbed the ball, ran twenty
yards to one side, all the time making
motions as though to pass the ball
and then suddenly started out on a
wide end run.
The Missouri team stood fat-footed
for an instant but just long enough
to let the Aggie quarter get under
way He ran the distance and the
Aggies won one of the most important
battles in the conference champion
ship race by IA to 10.

Heated Debate
AS Cover nOrs
Sign Dry Issue
by United Press Leased Wire

WEST BADEN, Ind, Oct. 19.-
Following heated debate, the gov
ernOrs of 80 states attending their
annual conference here today signed
a memorial calling on the govern
ment to aid in enforcing the prohib-
ition laws. In turn they promised
assistance of their states.
The memorial was compromise,
an earlier resolution expressing sym
pathy with the Volstead act.
Several executives refused to
sign the original resolution on the
ground that "bootlegging and other
vicious practices have resulted from
the 18th amendment.
Governor Sweet of Colorado draft
ed this resolution.
When Sweet and the other COVER
nors who had a hand in framing the
document found they could not OBJ
tain unanimous support it was de-
cided to amend it. Governors Pin,
chot, Pennsylvania, and Trinkle of
Virginia, assisted Sweet on the com
promise resolution.

ST. LOUIS, Oct. 19.-As the re-
suit of a very definite fear that an
attempt to carry through the pro-
gram mapped out for Lloyd George s
tour would cause breakdown or
at least serious straining of his
physical resources, Lloyd George s
tour is today on "day basis. -
Plans are not being made longer
than "a hours ahead and not that
far in most, cases. From now until
he sails back to England, Lloyd
George will commit himself only to
such engagements as he feels he can
keep without hurting himself.
Lloyd George and dame Margaret,
his wife, who is the guardian of his
health and well being, explained
that the reason he was able to come
through the war with its terrible
strain on physical and mental pow
ers, without serious impairment sof
his health, was that every so often
he would steal away to Wales for
few days and get close to his mother

Armed with dispositions of dentists

Smith and Esther Lee Tunstall Full

and murdered, the flesh later being
burned from his bones with an ac-

SOCIALISTS IN
GERMANY HAVE
AN UPPER HAND
War Cripples Offering
Pensions for LOaves
of Bread
Siege May Be Extended
to Cover Country
As Concession ~
BY CARL D. GRoAT
United Press Staff Corresporc


BERLIN, Oct. ia mob Of more
than, 1000 war cripples and unem-
ployed veterans, today stormed bak-
cries in the Berlin suburb of Nu
Koelln.
Leaders demanded a loaf for each
of the men and offered pledges Of
their government pensions in pay
ment.
Bakers granted the request when
government officials gave their con-
sent.
Socialists, whose threat of a gen.
eral strike helped to force the gov
ernment to back down before def
ant Saxony; dragged another con-
cession from the Stresemann cabinet
today.
Promise that the state Of siege
was to be extended over all Ger.
many so as not to- favor Bavaria
in her quarrel with Saxony, was
made when the socialists demanded
the state of siege be lifted.
The government also offered to
withdraw General VolfLossow,' die
tator of Bavaria.
Authority Clashes
This was not agreeable to Baya-
ria, since it was generally accepted
there that VonLossow could not
menace authority Of DR.. Won Kahr,
Bavaria s own dictator, dispatches
from Munich said. Cooperation of
the two dictators was said to be
complete. .....-... ...
National Dictator Gessler's dis
patch of troops to SaNony, where
the elements of civil war fumed,
was interpreted here today as a
graceful exit from the central gov
ernment's s threats.
Disbandment of the cred hun
dreds' communist military organi-
zation of Saxony, ordered by Cess
ler, was said privately by high army
Officers to be impossible unless
troops came to the aid of police.
Doubt that the government wohld
not feel itself strong enough to use
the army against reealcitrant state
was expressed today.
Socialist threats of general
strike throughout the county if the
government used the army against
state, were openly made. Along
with this antagonism of SHINES and
the other big industrialists were
thought to have left the government
practically powerless.

against the Imperial Irrigation Dis.
trict and thu district board OF
directors, asking for temporary
injunction to restrain them, from
levying the S.. tax rate approved by
the directors iast month, also re-
questing that hearing be given
to consider making the injunction
permanent.
In his complaint against the dis
trlct, Wores alleges that an assess
ment was made Hentember IS, ON
lands within the district, based on
rate of 22.5 mills per 81 of val
uation, same to be used for the
payment of interest due on bonds,

y further assessment based on "a
rate of 27.5 mills per 81 or vafua-
tion was made to care for expenses
in addition to tho payment u in
terest on bonds.
The amount of expense estimated
by the board, other than for pay
ment of bond interest, is $502,- -726.-
9S and Wores contends that By
levying the additional tax Of cts
mills, just twice this amount viii
be raised.
He therefore requests that the tax
levy for l923-24 be declared null
and avoid because it exceeds the
amount authorized by the provisions
of Act 2266 of the general laws OF
California, governing irrigation dis
tricts, also that an injunction be
