Antrim was in the first venire
drawn for the new jury after the old
grand jury had returned a no-indict-
ment report upon it's eleven weeks
investigation of political corruption.
He was the only man of the origi
nal venire accepted for service. He
was drawn Dec. 27.
Meanwhile on Tuesday of this
week Prosecutor William H. Remy
made public a charge of Smith P.
Maxwell Of the Polk Sanitary Milk
Company that two days after Antrim
was drawn on the jury, City Pur-
chasing Agent ]. j. Collins attempted
to cancel a contract for the city hos
pital milk and cream supply, which
had been awarded to the Poly con-
Germ, and give it TO Antrim's COM
pany.
The Polk and Antrim Company
and the city still are in controversy
over the contract. which amounts to
from $4,000 to 100000 year.
Antrim appeared before Judge Cob
Inns this morning and said:
1--WE have large building program
under way and when / appeared be-
fore you last Monday l asked to be
excused for business rea sons. but
you asked me to serve temporarily.
"I agreed to this, then. but now i
find that we have a large building
program under way at our plant that
will be under my direct supervision.
For this reason, l believe it will be
hardship both to myself and the
company for me to serve"
Collins replied
Yes, know That was our agree
ment. and IL you feel you can't serve
you are excused"
OF the others drawn Charles l..
Clark, 2514 Station ST., retired loco
motive engineer, was the only one
accepted.
Richard Fairbanks. publisher of
the Indianapolis News, was excused
because of illness of his wife. He
said he intends to start for California
with her early next week.
Judge Collins said he had received

TNHE revolt against American i'm
L perialism in Latin America Is
spreading rapidly and the struggle il
becoming sharper
A number of events in the last few
weeks justify this conclusion.
They are:
1. The popular revolt in Nicaragua
Ted by Sacasa against the Wall Street
tool Diaz.
2, The recognition of the popular
forces as the Nicaraguan government
by Mexico in defiance of the Amer
ican state department.
3. The statement of Pedro Zepeda,
representative of the Sacasa govern
ment in Mexico City, in which he
said:
The Intervention of the United
States In favor Of Daz has famed
the patriotism of every Nicaraguan
into such unquenchabIe fire that all
are ready to fight unyieldineIy
against foreign invasion.
4. The crushing defeat of the Diaz
forces by the popular army AFTER
the United States had instituted a
blockade and landed troops in sup
port of Diaz.
5. Open aid, by munitions and other
wise, of Mexico to the Sacasa army
AFTER being warned" by the Amer
ican state department TO discontinue
all support.
6. Well-founded reports from Qua
temala that similar situation is
developing there.
7. The unanimous condemnation of
American Intervention in Nicaragua
by the Latin American press in tone
which shows development of Latin
American consciousness far higher
than any evidenced hitherto and which
perceives American imperialism as
the most dangerous foe to unity and
independence of the Latin American
people. M &gss4s
A NUMBER of occurrences combined

movement against American imperial
ism and given 1t conference which
Wall Street and its state department,

Mexican Towns Hurt
by Mild Earthquakes

CALEXICO, CAL, Jan. Ain spite
Of recurrent tremors, several OF them
of considerable intensity, which shook
this city and Mexicali, just across the
border, early yesterday, the citizens
of this city today were preparing to
rebuild the city which was badly dam
aged by a succession of earth shocks
early Saturday.
The tremors yesterday started a
fire in Mexicah in which two build
ings were destroyed, causing a loss
of several thousand dollars. Other
damage, however, was slight. A num-
ber of loosened bricks were knocked
into the streets but nobody was in

hopes but that each one of them holds
the prospect of victory within meas

THE first group consists Of:
L 1. Evidences of a renewal OF the
rivalry between Great Britain and

companies thus placing British In

terests and the consequent furore In
the American press.
2. The lack of sympathy expressed
in the European press for the latest
adventures Of American government
such as the Panama treaty and the
Characterization Of them as imperial
istic." The comment OF. Pertinax, semi
official political writer for the Echo
de Paris, is typical:
The absorption of Panama proves,
no matter what one says, that Amer
lean Imperialism exists. II differs
from European efforts at hegemony
only by the weakness of the OBJ
stacles il meets. After the
conquest of the Spanish colonies in
1898 there came the subjugation Of
Panama In 1904, the Dominican re-
public in 1907, Haiti in 1915, Mica
ragua in 1916 and Honduras In 1924.
DELIEF In American idealism," in
- American desire to "do good for
the Latin American peoples is fading
rapidly. The complete lack of sup.
port by the leadership of the Ameri.
can Federation of Labor for the strug-
giles Of the Latin American masses
against American imperialism, has
shown to large sections OF the Latin
American workers the falsity OF the
promises that were made at the Ell

Nicaragua has been virtually taken
prisoner by American naval forces un-
der Admiral Latimer, and while pro-
tests are pouring in upon Washington
from every quarter of Latin-America,
President Coolidge has made plain to
the press correspondents that he is
back of the present Intervention.
Admiral Latimer, who wrote the
notorious legal opinion for the navy
department, holding that Teapot
Dome and other naval oil lands could
be handed over to Albert Fall, is Coo
Iidge's trusted agent in deciding what
steps shall be taken. If Latimer de-
cides that the Sacasa government
shall not receive or send any tele-
grams or use its own broadcasting
station, as seems now to be proven
to be the case, Coolidge remains calm.
Coolidge Claims absurd"
Senator Norris, progressive leader,
pointed to this claim Of need for pro-
tecting American lives and property
in the liberal strongholds as being too
absurd for belief. The first principle
of sensible conduct by the liberals, he
said, would be careful safeguarding of
American lives and properties. SEN
ator King of Utah echoed this sug-
gestion that the administration is Of
ferring a fraudulent excuse for it's
war in support of Wall Street bank
ers.
King remarked that the shame of
the whole record of American finan-
cial operations in Latin-America and
the Philippines is that the bankers
have been able to mold the policy of
the state department to advance their
private interests by the use of the
American governments armed forces.
Chairman Borah of the senate for
eign relations committee, after Sec
retary Kellogg had again assured him
that the intervention was not inter
vention, withheld direct comment for
a while, but said that he had received
evidence that six or eight men, in the
United States, had for business
reasons created the present war in
Nicaragua. Since this war was made

American government, Borah's com

6. The one-sided treaty forced on

such Latin American countries as 1t
