MINIMUM WAGE FOR WOMEN NOT CONSTITUTIONAL
Decision to This Effect Rendered by Supreme
 Court

SEATTLE, April 1.-The effect of the decision handed down yester- day by the United States Supreme Court declaring that the Congress sional Act regarding minimum wage for women workers in the District of Columbia was unconsti- tutional, is being earnestly consid- cred by friends of forward sHbor legislation in this state. F.sneth Durham, legal advisor of the Wash ington State Department of Labor and Industry, in a formal statement commenting on the courts ruling, expressed the opinion that this states statute on the same subject could not survive in face of the law as laid down by the highest court in the land. Approximately twenty five thousand women workers in this state will be affected if the local minimum wage law is held invalid

Turkey Ratifes Concessions Valuable Mineral Lands to
 American Capitalists

right to exploit the mineral resources throughout the whole of the undevel- oped portion of Asia Minor. The con- pany is officially named the American Development Company and it is ex- pected that the construction projects will engage it's activities and resources for many years. Thousands of na- tive Turk workmen will be employed under the supervision and direction of skilled American technicians.
 The plans of the American syndicate were determinedly opposed by Rus sian, British, and French interests. It is authoritatively stated that the Mos COW Government has also strenuous ly opposed the introduction of Ameri- can capitalistic methods into the Turk ish state. In fact it is believed that the impending continuation of the plans of the Americans and the Kemalist Government is responsible for the dis tinct tension now existing between Moscow and Angora. The projects in- clude the extension of the Bagdad Railway to the borders of Persia and the construction of rail branches to all the important cities. The develop ment company will be paid for it's ser vices by the receipt of mineral, oil and other concessions

duties of his office, after his in- auguration, are so much of a non- political nature that he should not be embarrassed by this constant dis cussion of political possibilities, which can only result in hampering the successful prosecution of the non-political work of his office
 The spokesman for the President said that Harding was anxious to make the Alaska trip. This desire is based on the fact that Alaska has been a frequent subject of dis cussion at the Cabinet meetings, re- suting in many controversies and definite disagreements among some of the Cabinet officials. The dis putes as to jurisdiction in Alaska matters between the departments had particularly interested the Pres ident, and he was eager to make personal trip of inspection so as to obtain first-hand knowledge Of the conditions. The President has expressed the belief that only an in innate knowledge of the Territorys needs could justify him in acting as arbitrator over some of the diver gencies which have appeared in the Cabinet.
 Since the Presidents return from the Florida trip, it has been learned that several informal conferences have been held at the White House concerning the trip to Alaska. If the President goes north, he will ask those members of the Cabinet whose departments are directly con cerned with the Administration of the Territorial affairs to go north with him. This will include Secre- tary Works and Secretary Wallace.

LONDON, April 1.-The fate of the present Conservative government of England under Andrew Bonar Law is hanging in the balance to- night following the defeat of the government on a division vote in the House of Commons yesterday by a vote of 145 to 138. The reversal came on the defeat of the govern ment's motion to allow the speaker to leave the chair and enter the discussion on estimates for salaries of former veterans of the World War who had entered the civil service. The leading newspapers of the King dom are speculating as to what at titude the kings ministers will take towards their defeat.

Mariner Browning was arrested by the local authorities charged with mur- der. The deceased is the former tel Ter of a local bank and the son-in-law of John M. Browning, the inventor of the Browning Machine Gun. The ac- cused man is the nephew of Browning. On his arrest the accused stated that he had been called to Ballantynes home to protect Mrs. Ballantyne who was being abused by her husband. In the quarrel which followed Browning claimed he shot in self defense. In a statement made by Ballantyne just before he died the deceased denied this, and insisted that he was not armed.

Chief ExecutiUe Anxi0us Obtain Information About
 Conditions h NOrthInnd

WASHINGTON, April Il. - That President Harding is still hopeful that he will be able to visit Alaska this Summer, was officially stated at the White House yesterday by the Presidents secretary, MT. Christian. The President has made conclusive plans for a speech making tour in the principal Pacific Coast cities, and although definite arrangements have not been completed for ex- tending the trip northward, it is hoped that nothing will arise to pre- vent it, and the President is an Xious to see the Territory at first hand. The official party will leave here for the Coast on June 20th and if the journey is continued to Alaska, the President will sail from Seattle about July fifth.
 The President has authorized the statement that his trip to the Pacific Coast and Alaska is not being under taken by him as a candidate for further political honors, or to sue ceed himself in the White House. It is indicated from official sources that MT. Harding regards all the political talks now going the rounds concerning the camDaign of 1924 and the possible candidates for the Pres idency as decidedly premature. The President is said to have expressed his failure to understand why a man elevated to the highest office in the gift of the nation cannot serve at least three years of his term without being forced unwillingly to become the subject of political dis cussion.
