EXPERTS CALLED
FOR TACNA STUDY
Charles Evans Hughes and
Gen. PerShing Go to State
Department.

Former Secretary of State Charles
Evans Hughes and Gen Pershing
were called into conference yesterday v
with officials OF the state Department
in connection with neew developments
Of the Tacna africa situation. 1t was
the first time that Gen. rershing had
LETT the hospital since he returned to
the United States ior medical and
dental treatment after an extended
stay in .Nrica as neutral head of the
PlebiscitarN Commission.
Much speculation WAS aroused in
diplomatic quarters by these confer
enceS, and there was suggestion out
side the State Department that this
Government might be considering
aba ndonment of the plebiscite ordered
by President Coolidge as arbitrator,
although the state Department has
insisted that the plan will he adhered
to.
1t is no secret now that diplomatic
agents in the various South Amer
lean capitals. acting on instructions
from the State Department, have
sounded out the governments there
in an effort tC find other means of
settling the controversy, and the de-
partment has not denied that .tmbaS
sadors Collier in Santiago and Poin
dexter in Lima extended the good
Offices of the United States to Chile
and Peru in an effort to solve the con
troversy outside the terms Of the
Presidents award.
Since these steps were taken Peru
is understood to have dema nded that
the registration he indefinitely post
poned because of conditions prevailing
in TaCna and africa. and the Tlebi-
scitary Commission saturday did post
pone the registration. then scheduled
for March Is, until March 27. Action
on the Peruvian representations vas
della yed until next Wednesday, and
the change presumably has failed to
satisfy Peru.

Nezv Decision Givem m Regard to AAnskn LiQuoy Luzu
Alaskan Homes May Not Be
Searched Unless There Is
Some Evidence of Selling

Alaskan homes are entitled to the
same immunities and limitations of
search under the National Prohibit
ton Act as are the homes Of resi-
dents of other portions of the United
States, regardless of the provisions
for search of the Alaska Bone Dry
Law. This is the principle laid down
by the Circuit Court of Appeals for
the first time in a decision rendered
November Is, last.
Under the Alaska Bone Dry Law
homes of residents of Alaska are
subject to search where there is rea-
son to believe intoxicating liquor is
he'd therein Under the provisions
OF the National Prohibition Act. there
must be some evidence Of sale in
private dwellings before the right of
search is available to enforcement

homes of Alaskans are on the same

The opinion said.
This appeal, taken by the United
States, presents the question as TO
