Connecticut Senators and Rcprcscn. tatises Favor Legislation Paving Way For Entrance of |. s.
nY GEORGE II. MANNING

BY GEt'RGE II MANNING (WashinGton Bureau oi x B HcraldD Washington, n. C.. Dec. l9--The Connecticut senators and congress- men are solidly behind President Coolidge's proposal 10 have congress enact legislation for the entry of the United States into the wC,ld court.
 Although Senators Bingham and Mclean have repeatedly announced their adherence to this principle scores of letters continue 10 come .to them each day asking their posi- ton on the question or urging them 10 favor 1t.
 Both Senator's Mclean and Bing- nam will vote for the world court when it comes before the senate. AS this proposal will he in the form Of q treaty it will not require sanction of the house but the Connecticut congressman are for it anyway.
 Senator Mclean has been in favor of the world court proposal since il was first broached three years ago by President Harding and Secretary of State Hughes, He voted for the world court during the last session of congress.
 Senator Bingham has favored the world court from the outset. was elected 10 office on that platform and there should be no doubt in Connecticut regarding his stand on the question. Senator Bingham made his position clear in this statement today:
 "I favor the adherence Of the United States to the permanent court of international justice as recom- mended by President Coolidge and endorsed by the republican party in it's national platform, Upon the question of what form our ndhcr- .enCe should take I shall vOte for those reservations and amendments which meet the presidents approval. The attitude of President Coolidge towards our foreign relations com mandS my hearty respect and will receive my cordial support"

RADICAL CHANGE IN
 IMMIGRATION POLICY
secretary of Labor Announces Diff. fcrcnl Procedure To Be
 Followed

Washington, Dec. 1g.--In his an. nual report to congress for 1925, the secretary of labor, James J, Davis says; During June, 1925, through diplomatic channels, arrangements Wgrc concluded with the govern- mcnts of Great Britain and the Irish Free State cXperimcntally tc have
 tctailed abroad competent public health and Immigration inspectors to act as technical advisers to con sular officers in charge Of visa work"
 The report date June 30. 1925, but only just made public describes the new procedure wliCh had not then been put into effect The Ia. hor secretary who is in charge of tho immigration service, states that fhis procedure is now in effect so far as Great Britain and the Irish Free State are concerned, and he expresses the hope that it may be extended 10 all other large immiEra- ton countries. His report is as fol- lows: "Thc results under it. l feel sure, will be highly gratifying not only 10 officers of this country whose duty it is 10 insure that ad- mission be not granted 10 undcsir- able aliens but also to tho rcprescn- tatiyos of the other governments con- c"rnod. For the privilege of mak- ing thorough examination hv public health and immigration officials in those countries it was agreed that aliens who passed this rigid inspeC- ton abroad would be required only 10 submit to an examination aboard ship upon arrival and would there upon be permitted to land without detention at an immigrant station. It was provided. of course, that if upon this examination by public health and immigrant inspectors, who would board the vessel upon arrival it developed that there had been any change in the condition Of the immirwant after the rigid exam ination abroad and before arrival. then the government should remove such aliens to tho immigrant station for further examination. This pro- cedure would greatly facilitate the landing of immigrants who passed inc rigid examination abroad and were found upon check at time of arrival to be in every way admis- sible."

(By the United Press)

Architects plans for the first

Of the new mems dormitories to

cOnsin in Madison on the shore Of
Lake Mendoza behind the agricul-
tural buildings, are now being com

begin early in the fall, according
to J. d. Phillips, business manager
of the university.
The first two quadrangles and
refractory will cost 100000 equip

They will form the first sections
of series of quadrangles which
will eventually house some 1000
men. The dormitories will be
built of Madison sandstone in Ital-

the lake drive behind the old stills
buinlding.
The buildings will be financed,
under a law recently passed by the

DRIVES AWAY
CAR; TROUBLE:
Merrimack Machine
Lands Young Man
in the Jail in Bara
boo Tuesday

On June II, William Kasdorf of
Merrimack missed his Ford road
ster but he said nothing about it
to the officers. Perhaps he had a
suspicion. A young man who had
been paying some attention to a
young lady in the village, also
vanished at the time the car rolled
away.
A few days ago Mr.. Kasdorf re-
ceived a card from garage at
Weyauwega, Waupaca county,
stating that car was at his gar
age and it belonged to Mr.. Kas-
dorf, according to the license list
sent out by the secretary of state.
On the same day a card came from
the missing young man, William
Obermeier, to the young lady in
the village. Mr.. Kasdorf brought
both cards to Sheriff H. C. Neitzel,
anu J09 rest WdS easy.
When the road between Baraboo
and Merrimack was being relocated
last fall and this spring, Obermeis-
er was employed on the highway.
According to the narrative he
drove the car away and while at
Weyauwega the machine broke
down. The owner of the garage
told him it would require SAL to
make the repairs and this was
more cash than the young man
possessed. Finally the owner of
the garage said he would give him
SIS for the Ford but delayed pay
ment until no investigated. The
car was left and the young man
vanished.
This card Obermeier wrote to
Merrimack was from Oshkosh and
he said he was painting with the
Tex company. When Sheriff Nett
eel read the card, he called the
Chief Of Police at Oshkosh and
word came in fifteen minutes that
Obermeier was at the station. The
Baraboo officer gave him a free
ride to Justice Andros court. Not
being able to give bail he was
taken to the county Jail and will
be in circuit court later.
The prisoners bond was fixed
at $500.

phinium, in bloom at the farm
home of William Toole and son
has attracted many visitors the
past few weeks and is sight
worth going many miles to see.
The Tooles have raised flowers
for many years, specializing in diff

but they have seldom had a more
gorgeous display than their Lark
spur garden which is now a riot
Of blues of every shade, ranging
from the noar-White to the deepest
purple tints. Many of the stalks
have reached an unusual heighth
and the remarkable variety com
prised in the display is a never
ending source of wonder to visit
ors at the gardens. Visited at
sunset or in the early morning,
the sight Of this enormous stretch
of bloom is a rare pleasure.
Many of the flowers are sold at
the Toole flower shop uptown, 9TH
ers are kept for seed, and numer-
GUS plants are dug for replanting
in private gardens.
The Toole Delphiniums are rot
only attracting attention in this
locality but have received much
favorable comment throughout the
state A few weeks ago Mr.. Toole
made a showing Of the blossoms at
a flower show at the home of Mrs.
Rockefeller Cormick in Lake

also received an invitation to eX-

(By the United Press)

Brainbridge Colby, New York,
attorney and one of the defense
lawyers in the trial of John Tho
mas Scopes, charged with viola
ton of the Tennessee law which
makes it a criminal Cffense to
teach evolution, today notified the
defense CONSUL John r. Neal,
that he will be unable to continue
his services as it is necessary for
him to remain in New York to

court.
William Jennings Bryan today

will assist with the prosecution.
A constitutional amendment ban
ished the evolution theory from all
American schools forever is the
distant goal Of organized funda-

1t seems that the proceedings in
the Scopes trial, which will start
in this little town Friday, are
only the first faint rumblings Of
a major battle that ultimately may
be fought by the entire American
nation.
William Jennings Bryan, main
stay of the prosecution of Scopes,
flung down the gauge of battle in
an address to the Progressive Day
club at the Aqua hotel Tuesday
night.
If the Tennessee anti-evolution
law is held invalid in the lower
courts, he said, 1t will be appealed
through all stages to Washington.
If the United States supreme court
holds it unconstitutional, it will
be appealed to the American peo-
pie.
