 Blames Democrats Turning aside from what he de- nominated as scandal Senator Pepper charged that the democrats making the most Of their strategic ad- vantage in congress for partisan poli- tical rcasons have ''created a situa- ton in which constructive legislation is difficult if not impossible"
 As d result he continued the ad- ministration forces have been able to to little more than make a beginning of translating into law tho program laid down hy President Coolidge in his first annual message to congress.
 During the residue of this session. he aid, we hall do what we can to move forward in tho right direction and rely upon the great popular en- dorsoment which WIG expect to re- ceiVc next November to give ifs the momentum necessary to complete our program.

Two dan gers arc to be guarded against. He went on one m emotional cmcr- goncy relief'' which wasted money doing good and the other sectional legislation. With the prob- lcms of guarding child life, of en- forcing the prohibition and other laws, onf Of caring for disabled sol- liors, Senator Pepper linked the prob lem Of so restricting immigration that American institutions and ideals sil not be submerged by an in-rouing Lide."
 Coming 10 foreign affairs, Senator Pepper declared that no nation had ever played a more unsolfish or help rul part in the life of other nations han has the United States.
 Foreign Affairs
 During the present session Of con- gross" he said i've have ratified 2g .rcaties with other powers. What we have resolutely refused 10 do Is to confuse friendly cooperation with political cntangclment."

 According to the Commissioner, Dolan's principal object in visiting him was to explain that when he told Landis he didn't remember" i" the circumstances related in O'Con- nell's confession he, Dolan, meant he knew nothing about the whole af- fair. Dolan has steadily denied im- plication in the deal, as charged by O'Connell.
 O'Connell, Landis saidI had not received official notice of the action against him and desired to clarify his position. He made no change in his confession, in which he impli- cated other Gants besides Dolan, &C., cording to the Commissioner.
 There is no change in the situa- ton of my position as a result of this" said Landis. T still have an open mind on the subject and am ready to go to the bottom of any new developments"

Boy Takes Law Into His Own Hands After
 Warning Fails

When Genevieve Smulski, fl, fail- ed to heed her fathers order that she was not to keep company with Adelbert Emmons, and Emmons had shown like disregard for the ulti- matum he received on several occa- sions from the father, the girls brother, Casimir, and his chum, John Chudzik of 155 Cleveland street determined that they would put an end to the budding romance, and they did it with such vehemencs that they were arraigned before the police court this morning on charge of breach of the peace and assault.
 They told the court that Emmons, in spite of the warnings he had re- ceived, had taken the girl to the show Sunday night, so SmulsA de- termined that he would take the matter into his own hands. He wait ed for their return, Chudzik waiting with him to render any service that was needed.
 Emmons appeared in court with a badly battred face as a result of the assault, and the two defendants ad- nitted that they had administered the beating as they felt it was nec- essary to stop him from paying further attention to the Smulski girl.
 Emmons admitted that he had been warned to stop going out with the girl Judge Alling said that al- though Emmon did not get any more than he deserved, Smulski and Chud- zik should not have taken the matter into their own hands. Speaking to the brother, the judge said; "Em- mons evidently got his for disre- garding the warning, but how about your sister, she was just as much at fault for going out with him smuI- ski answered, "Oh, she got hers when she went home
