union support for fighting elections

Objects to Treaty Draft.
Gen. William Crozier, following an
outline by Prof. J. T. ShotweIl of Co
lumbia University Of the publication
of an American" draft of a treaty
to be submitted to the Council of the
League Of Nations in September, made
an objection in an open conference
today that the United States would
be unwise to assent in advance to a
decision of the Permanent Court of
International Justice on the point of
whether the United States was the
aggressor in any war For the pur-
pose of illustration, Gen. Crozier said
that, while this country was clearly in
the right in 1912 on the issue of Great
Brftain's right to impress our seamen,
the law of that period. as interpreted
by Gen. Foster and Admiral Mahan,
would have led to a different decision.
The rub comes. the speaker said, in
the fact that there is no international
law making body, and that it is pro-
posed to set up judicial body in a
field of the highest Importance with
out an accompanying legislative body.

three hours while the defendant was
speaking in his own defense. Fallon
declared he was victim of a plot en-
gineered by Victor Watson, assistant
publisher of the New York American.

his visit to Watson's home, and ac-
cused the newspaper official of false
hood in his statement that the meet

Government witnesses, he denied that
Watson had said this, and stated that
the New York American had determined
to get him because OF his possession
of birth certificates of the children of a
prominent actress
The jury was out almost six hours.

nouncement of the verdict Friends of

get a glimpse of the defendant, rushed
