CALVIN SHOWS BELLIGERENCY

Among the most notable recent utterances OF Pres1-
dent Coolidge his recent observations with respect to
the nations policy has to do with abstract questions
such contingencies arising out of European hareds
due to the refusal Of the United States to cancel
debts and Americas alleged failure to demand observ
Of international usages regarding treatment of Am
erican nationals abroad.
While the language is couched in diplomatic terms it,
carries belgerent note surprising to those who have
been wont to picture the President pacst afraid to
speak his mind He told Europe that in the event of
other to entrench mitaris-the curse of Europe
throut the world America has the ability and courage
to meet the issue its behalf and not ally Of
European nation. Now he tells those who wish to know
that the United States prepared to demand that its
nationals receive international coureses and fair play
abroad
The Presidents utterances are timely in that they
answer the sophistry that America would have been
compelled to fight German mitarsm alone had she not
come to the aid of the Allies
Again President Coolidge announces, in his request
to the press of the nation to aid in dspeng erroneous
impressions abroad that he desires foreigners to under
America and it's IDEALS and at the time to under

ANNAPOLIS, Nd, May 27.-
Naval Academy athletes left Annapo-
lis in larger numbers than at any
other time during the year, the
baseball and field and track squads
starting for West Point, where they
meet the Military Academy in those
branches on tomorrow, and the
varsity, junior varsity and plebe
crews heading toward Philadelphia,
where they row in the Henleys at
the same time.
Tomorrow will end spring sports
for the year, except for the Nays
entry of varsity and plebe crews
at Poughkeepsie, the lacrosse team
play the Military Academy here,
and the tennis team meeting the
University of Pennsylvania on the
local courts.
The series Of sports with the
Military Academy Saturday present
a tight competition. The Navy prac-
tically comedies the track meet, but
believes it has the edge as to la
crosse, while the outcome of the
baseball game is a toss.up.
The fact that both Princeton and
Columbia have declined to enter
the stewards cup race in the Hen
leys is disappointing to Naval peo-
pie. as these are two of the three
Eastern crews the Navy has not
met this season, the other being
Yale.
The Syracuse rowing squad, which
has been in Annapolis since Thurs
day. last, also left today for the
Henlevs.

Los ANGELES, May 16.-Unusual

the Hall of Justice here today as the
State called upon Mrs. Sarah Kerrick
and four other motion picture folk to
answer for the murder of her hus-
band, "Two-Gun Tom Kerrick Of the

of the case and also because the scene

Killed at All-Night Gin Party.
Kerrrick was killed at an all-night
gin party in his home. Who fired the
shot that killed him has been a hazy
matter because the five persons in
volved, who admittedly had been
drinking freely, told varying stories.
The State has announced that it will
attempt to prove Mrs. Kerrick was
responsible. A coroner's jury, after
hearing the testimony Of the quintet,
concluded that Kerrick was killed by
persons unknown"
Police stated that 1t was two days
before the five accused persons, all
of whom are movie extras or players
Of minor roles in the films, recovered
fully from intoxication that resulted
from the party.
District Attorneys Statement.
e. J. Dennison, deputy district at
torney, constructing the States view
of the shooting, said that Mrs. Ker-
rick and Miss Davis, after a short
visit to neighbors near the Kerrick
bungalow home, returned to find Ker-
rick and Isabel forcing their atten-
tions on Miss Burns. During heated
argument which followed, Mrs. Ker-
rick is believed to have drawn a pistol
from her handbag and shot Kerrick.
Seven attorneys will sit at the de-
fense side of the counsel table, while
two will represent the State.

Republican nor Democrat knew Reed

did not even send word to Mckinley

up an election case all the Democrats
except two remained silent, and the
roll showed 161 for the motion and 2

than a quorum and the Democratic
leader, Crisp of Georgia, called the
Speakers attention to it. Everybody
expected that that would put an end
to business for the day. But, paying
no attention to Crisp, Mr.. Reed, in his
ordinary tones and without the slight
est trace Of excitement, directed the
clerk to place on the roll the names
of members present but refusing to

 The Delegate forgot to mention that the "bg inter- ests" controlling the affairs of The Times the 12 or more business of Anchorage who and direct this paper but nevertheless they brought under the ban ket indictment returned by the Degate against the whole press of Alaska for subserency to big interests through an effort to perpetuate bureauracy.
 Some of his mouthings too ridiculous to consider but portions of them where mssstatements were garng should and will be refuted
 One thing brought out by the Delegate is outstanding and welcome That is that the fight for the Comptroller bill will be carried to the voters next election That is ex actly as should be. If there should develop demand for Board of Control for Alaskan affairs to supercede the functions of the Governor the board must be the seec ton of Alaskan citizens whole and not the appontees of legislative clique hoped for by those backing the Comptroller bill that was killed this week in the Sen ate at Juneau.
