NEW SENATOR FROM ARIZONA
(Benson News)

When the short session of con.
gress convenes, on the first Mon.
day in December. Henry F. Ash.

zona, will present to the senate
the newly elected senator from
his state, Hon. Carl Hayden.
Democrat who will enter upon
his six-year term succeeding
Hon. Ralph H. Cameron. his Re-
publican predecessor.
We predict for Senator Hay
den q long and honorable career
in the greatest law making body
in the world.
Carl Hayden is an Arizona
narrative born. typically
western, square and above board
in all his dealings. free from
Hypocrisy, sincere, fair-minded
and intensely loyal to his state.
Not so long ago. member of
congress from Massachusetts,
Republican, was en- route to the
Pacific coast. On the same train
travelled q citizen of Arizona.
The congressman from Massa
chussetts and the Arizonan
struck up an acquaintance as the
train rolled across the western
plains. Naturally, the conver
sation drifted to congressional
and capital affairs and on one
occasion the Arizonan asked the
congressman to name the most
influential member of the House
of Representatives. The Massa
chussetts, of Ohio, speaker of
the house, as that member. and
then turning to his new acquaint
ance from Arizona continued:
DO you people in Arizona re
ally know that one Of the most
influential members of the lower
house is your own congressman
Carl Hayden. He is popular and
usually gets what he wants be
cause the members, regardless
of partisan lines, admire and re-.
spect him for his straight for
ward manner, his integrity and
courtesy, and his unvarying Gus
tom of playing all of his cards
on top of the table"
That is close up view of Carl
Hayden, Democrat, in congress
by q Repu blican colleague.
And now the people of Arizona
have sent Carl Hayden to the
United States Senate. He has
won bis promotion and it will
not be long until be will earn the
same influential position in the
senate that he has enjoyed in
the house.
Pick up the minority report of
the committee on irrigation in

REFUSES TO CLOSE
COURT IN POTOMAC
Circuit Judge Declares A.A.A.
Should Go Before Higher
Tribunal.

Calling attention to the statewide
and far-reaching consequence of is.

which would prevent Mayor William
Kleysteuber from sitting as judge in
any cases in the court of Potomac,
Va, Judge Samuel G. Brent of the
Circuit Court Of Arlington County,
Va, In vacation term at Alexandria,
today, denied the writ TO Attorney
Charles G. Collins of the A. A. A.,
who sought it on the ground that the
Potomac court, being pecuniarily in
terested in the outcome of cases be-
fore it. was disqualified and without
jurisdiction. Judge Brent recon-
mended that the more efficaciouS pro-
ceeding of seeking such a writ from
the Virginia Court of Appeals, now sit
ting at Richmond, be adopted Mr..
Collins said today that the issuance
of such a. writ by the Virginia Court
of Appeals would be sought at once.
This would affect the entire State
of Virginia." Judge Brent declared,
after reading the petition and hearing
by Mr.. Collins and Corpora
tion Attorney William L. Varney of
Potomac. Since the case was of i'm
portance throughout the State in test
ing the Jurisdiction of inferior courts
alleged to receive twice the fee for

fendant, Judge Brent stated he would
deny the petition for the writ.
Two Choices Left.
He informed the petitioner that he
could either sue out a writ of error to
appeal his decision, or petition anew
fns hn iSct of ~ hi al
tion from the Court Of Appeals of Vir-
ginia, which had original jurisdiction
of such Writs.
Personally, Judge Brent said. he was
inclined to favor the merits of the Pc
titioner's prayers.

court toward testing the validity of

Potomac Monday night. AlfonZo

that the case be dismissed. in view of
the recent Supreme Court decision
that when a judicial officer
trying a case has a substantial and
interest in the outcome a
defendant cannot obtain a trial in ac-
cord with due process Of law. This
motion was overruled. Brooks was
convicted and fined $40 and assessed
$40 costs. An appeal was noted,

&c CHANGES MADE
IN SAP|RO CHARGES
Amendments Suggested by
Judge Handed Up by Coun-
sci as Court Opens.

by the Associated Press.
DETROIT, March 24.--Fifty-six
changes were made today in Aaron
Sapiro's declaration of 141 separate
and distinct alleged libels against him
by Henry Ford.
The amendments suggested three
days ago by Federal Judge Fred NJ.
Raymond were handed up by Sapiro's
counsel at the opening of court.
Defense counsel insisted upon adj
journment until Monday to permit
them to ''study an entirely new case. {"
The court was reluctant, however, and
adjourned court until o'clock this
afternoon to permit preliminary ex-
animation of the IL typewriter pages
of the amended declaration.
Gallagher Explains Changes.
If it developed then that the new
declaration presented such involved
features that further study was nec-
essary, he indicated he would declare
an adjournment until next Monday
morning.
William Henry Gallagher, chief of
counsel for Sapiro, who sued Ford
for S1,000,0O0 upon allegations that
his efforts and standing as an organ
izer of farmers cooperative organiza-
tions had been damaged by articles
printed in the Ford-owned Dearborn
Independent, stated that the amend
ments made no decided change in the
legal status of his case.
"It tends merely to clarity 1t and
bring it within narrower limitations
so that 1t can be more readily COM
pretended by the average juror" said
Gallagher.
The process of amending took the
Ford counsel by surprise. They had
entered court rather in anticipation
Of another dull draggy day with the
remaining 40 per cent of the alleged
libels formally read into the record.
Process Is Slow.
That process has required the bet

Independent. for the most part sitting
idly upon witness stand, but referred
to infrequently for answers to ques-
tions which precipitated long legal
tits which slowed the case.
OF the 56 changes, Sd were elimi-
nations and two changes in phrase
olOgy.
The amended declaration, Sapiro's
counsel explained, confines the issue
closely to the Dearborn Independents
attacks upon Jews and to the charges
of communism and bolshevism.
Two entire counts, the eighteenth
and nineteenth. of the 2O-count
declaration were stricken out.
One, the eighteenth, referred to
potato growers and already was COW
cred in other parts Of the declaration.
Editorial Is Concerned.
The nineteenth count had to do with
an editorial printed in the Dearborn
Independent and did not mention Sa-
piro specifically.
A phrase In the editorial was be-
lieved at first to have referred to Sa-
piro, but Ford counsel asserted it did
not refer to Sapiro. 1t, therefore, was

Provide Means to Keep Up
Monthly Payments.
APPROPRIATION LOST

BY WILL T.. KENNEDY.

The pensions are to be paid regu
lary. despite the fact that the second
deficiency appropriation bill failed be-
hind the Senate filibuster.
This means regular relief to $4,000
veterans of the Civil. Spanish and In
dian Wars and of the Regular Army
and their widows. approximately 5000
of whom are in the District of Co
lunbia.
1t was learned on good authority
today that the controller general is
ready to make a ruling allowing drafts
to be made against the pension fund
for the coming fiscal year, which
would be available after July /. and
that the director of the Bureau of the
Budget has approved this plan. 1t Is
expected that the official announce
ment will be made at the next White
House conference.

The same ruling will be used as
authority for paying about 1000 Dis

Public AVelfare and about 100 widows
and children of disabled District EN-
ployes or employees permanently in
jured in the performance of their
duties.
The plight of these people. most of
whom are absolutely dependent upon
the small monthly stipend for all the
necessities of life, has caused grave
concern to President Coolidge and to
Federal and District officials. who
have been striving to find a way by
which the nIInyxQ rafOhf ha r1QfH
regularly. President Coolidge at the
White House press conference Tues
day let 1t be known that he was hope
full that a solution of the difficulty
could be found.
Will Withhold Notices.
The pension checks go out for de.
livery on the fourth of each month.
The April checks are all ready. as
there Is a sufficient amount on hand
to pay them. Notices had been pre-
pared. however. to be sent to all
pensioners notifying them that the
May and June checks would not be
sent out, but that on July 4, when the
next years appropriations would be
available checks for the three months
would be issued.
While the commissioner of pensions
today denied any knowledge of a de-
cision to permit the regular payment
of the pensions, it is understood that
these notices are not to be issued.
The District Commissioners and the
District auditor, Daniel ]. Donovan,
have repeatedly expressed their great
sympathy with the 1000 District
pensioners who were threatened with
a two-nonth lapse in pension pay
ments. and have been cudgeling their
hrAinC and nnOnOaH in f.onnorf
ferences endeavoring to find some way
to lawfully use other funds. They
have been blocked by the necessity Of
getting decision from the controller
general. II and when the controller
general rules that the soldiers pen
sions can be paid by checking against
next years budget, the authority will
be ample for paying the District pen
Sioners in the same way.
