for Warehouses on Pater-
son Tract.

The proposal to zone part of the
Patterson tract at Fifth street and
Florida avenue northeast as an in
dustrial area, thus permitting the
erection of warehouses, met with
vigorous opposition before the coming
commission at a hearing in the Dis
trict building today.
Even though representatives of
the owners of the property pointed
cut that one portion of the vast tract
would be set aside for park purposes.
representatives of citizens associa-
tons in the ne:ghborhood lodged
vigorous protests.
Joseph l. Weller, representing
the owners. declared that a part of
the land with a 150-foot fronta pc
on Florida avenue and extending
1900 feet north had been set aside
for possible use as a park entrance
and that the property directly north
OF the end Of the proposed entrance
could be used for a park.
Those who opposed the change
were w. q. Henderson. North Cant.

PROVIDE s
SECURITY
Of $500
Abner Proctor, Held As
Drunken Driver, Unable to,
Get Bondsmen.

$500 ASNAAS OOOA Al J0AA oAA~0
Monday when he was arrested
and charged with driving while
intoxicated and without means to
pay a professional bondsman, had
there been one available to effect
his release Abner Proctor was re-
leased under bonds today by
Michael Buckley, a man whom
he had never seen.
Touched By Plight.
Buckley says that he was APP
preached yesterday by man whom
he formerly employed, who had just
finished serving q ten-day term for
i1toxication, who told him about
Proctor being held in jail because
there were no professional bonds
men to get him out. and told Buck
ley that he would be doing good
deed by furnishing a $500 bond for
Proctor's release. Buckley lays
that his heart was touched by the
appeal so he Immediately went to
the court and qualified as bonds
man. He has no intention Of going
into the business professionally,
however, he said.
Former Police Court Judge, James
J.. Pugh, who was out of the city
when the new regulations went into
effect, stated today that, although
the judges were within their rights
in making any regulations concern
ing the amount of security, he
thought that it was unn acessaPy to
lower the amount from three times
to twice the amount of security, as
any bondsman ordered by the court
to forfeit a bond was automatically
disqualified from taking further
bonds until the forfeiture was paid.
He said that this was ample protec-
ton to the court.
Await Reply of Judges.
.''I think it highly improper, how
ever, to force a prisoner who is
arrested after IL o'clock at night
to remain in jail until o'clock the
next morning before a release can
be signed for him, for it is every
mans privilege under the Consti-
tuition to be released from custody
as soon as he can furnish the set
ball." he said in referring to the
rule that prohibits deputy clerks
from signing releases at any hour
Of the night, as has formerly been
done. Under the new rule releases
can be signed at night only between
the hours of and IL o'clock d. m.
by a deputy clerk assigned TO the
Police Court for that purpose.
No reply has been received from
Judge Mcmahon regarding the pc
tition for hearing that was filed
BY the bondsmen Tuesday.

Reference to
 "Ciphers" Riles
 Injunction Judge

Memphis, Tenn, June I.-Federa1 Judge Ross considers it a more seri- ous offense to attack strikebreakers as a class than to hold a member of the judiciary up to public scorn.
 This was shown when Judge Ross sentenced Editor Cohen of the Labor Review to jail for six months and fined him $I ,ooo because the labor ed itor published an attack on strike breakers. The article dealt with strikebreakers as a class, and was along lines of similar articles often printed in the labor press. Judge Ross said this was provocative" of disorder, and, the labor editor was treated as a murderer. He was ar rested, placed under $5,ooo bond, and later sentenced to six months in jail and to pay fine of 1000.
 The other case involved the editor of the Memphis Press, who was fined $500 by Judge Ross for contempt of court. The Press editor made direct attack on the court, who was held up to ridicule because of his injunctions against the shop men. This was less offensive, however, than the labor edi- tors reference to industrial ''ciphers."
 Judge Ross berated and censured the labor editor for 45 minutes before sentence. When the Press editor was sentenced the court merely read his opinion

BERRY WINS FIGHT:
 PLEADS FOR UNITY

Press1nen's Home. Tenn, June 1.- 'Let us rededicate ourselves to service in the interest of the International Printing Pressmen and Assistants Union of North America and to the trade union movement in general
 This Is the temper of an article in The American Pressrnen, signed by George L. Berry, president of the In- ternationa1 Pressmen's union. in which he announces that the long internal fight with Chicago pressme has been adjusted.
 President Berry has been the target for many charges the past several 2years, and even despite federal injunctions against him he has been vindicated com pletely and the Chicago pressmen have acknowledged their error. Their local union will reaffiliate with the interna- tional, they will withdraw all litigation and wll pay $25000 as first installment upon their indebtedness.
 In announcing the vindication of him self and associate officers, President Berry indicates that the pressrnen should build for the future instead of discuss ing the past. He says a good feeling now prevails and there is a determina- ton ''to develop the highest possible trade union spirit for the common good of the press room workers of that city and the industry in which they are en- gagged.
