Pope Seeks Boys Souls;
MnssOlini Demands All
Papal Scouts Disband

ROME, Jan. 26.-The pope has
created a first class sensation here
by his order dissolving the Catholic
boy scouts in towns of less than
10000 in order to forestall a fascist
decree which would incorporate the
boy scouts in the fascist national
balilla.
The Observatory Romano announc-
ing the Pope's decree was que.ly
sold out and in some circles the &C.
ton of the Pope was interpreted as
the forerunner of open conflict be.
tween the vatican and the fascist.
The split between the Pope and
Mussolini is becoming more and more
pronounced. The Pope has decided to
serve one god at a time. In a letter
addressed to Cardinal Gaspari in the
Osservatore Romano, he protests
against Mussolini's order.
Growing more conciliatory at the
end of his letter. the Pope claims
merely the souls of Italian boys, in
timating that if Catholic bishops
are entrusted with supervision Of the
moral and religious training OF the
National Balilla, he will give full
liberty to the Catholic scouts to JON
juvenile fascist organizations.

Foreign Office Hurries

WASHINGTON, Jan &c. The
French government has notified the
American debt commission that rati-
fieation Of the Mellon Berenger debt
agreement has been indefinitely post
poned, it was learned today.
AS a result, the American senate
will take no action on the pact until
the next session a year hence.
Opposition in the French parlia-
ment was strong that a delay was
decided upon rather than jeopardize
the agreement by calling for vote
now, it was said:
President Poincare, in his appear
ance before the Chamber of Deputies
Financial Commission, in the capacity
Of Minister Of Finance, stated that
there was no hurry about ratifying
the treaty.
The French Foreign Office has
denied that there is anything involved
in the debt situation to jeopardize
the relations between the United
States and France. According to the
Foreign Office, the situation is I'M

to us the great statesman, Benito

petit-bourgeois Italian audience rose
in their seats and attempted to imi-
tate the 'Roman salute" of Fascist

Mayor Dever, in view of a coming

took occasion to fill out his political
sails among italian voters by rosy ref

Italian workers were notably few
in the Coliseum audience. In the firs5

There is no doubt the baron felt this.

Judge Lindsay Ousted
By State Supreme Court

DENVER, Colo, Jan. 26-Judge
Ben B. Lindsey, founder and judge of
the juvenile court of Denver, was
ousted today through a decision of
the state supreme court.
This is a reversal of a previous de-
cision rendered by the Denver dis
trict court, which had affirmed the
electio nof Lindsey over his opponent
Royal w. Graham. The whole issue
arose out of the election of judges in
1924 which was at that time won by
Lindsey.
Opponent Dead.
Graham, backed by the Ku Klux
Klan, contested the election returns
and demanded a recount. Graham
has since died. Khan pressure is de-
clared to be back of the attack on
Lindsey. The Khan controls many
political posts in the state of Color
ado.
Judge Lindsey has been recognized
as a liberal jurist. He has been as
ISOLATED with the Denver juvenile
court for over twenty-five years. His
method of dealing with juvenile de-
linquents, and his unique tactics in
bringing about good results has won
for him an international. reputation.

CAUSE MEXICAN
PERIL TO LOWER
WESTERN WAGES
Bosses Break Pact To
Aid Exploitation

LOS ANGELES, Calif.-The yell
low peril has taken a back seat on
the Pacific coast. The Mexican peril
is now placed in the front row.
The lowest extimate of Mexicans
living this side Of the Rio Grande IS
100000, the highest 100000. The
number of Mexicans coming to the
United States each year was recently
estimated by the "Survey of Race
Relations" at 100000 or more.
Texas is said to have Mexican
population Of more than $4,000. Cali
fornia next with 100000, chiefly in
the southern part of the state. New
Mexico is third with 10000. Colorado
and Arizona each have 10000.
In spite of vice fees, head tax and
the eentlemen's agreement between
the labor declarations of the two re-
publics to discourage immigration, a
veritable flood of Mexicans has been
pouring over the border since 1920,
the report says.
These people are not here alto
gether on account of their own choice.
They are here as a result of studied
exploitation program of big employ
ers, who are using them as section
hands on railroads, in lumber camps,
on sugar beet and cotton plantations
and On the big construction jobs.
Efforts are new being made to re-
peal the restrictions and open the
flood-gates for more Mexicans on the
ground that they alone can solve the
unslilled labor shortage" in the west.
In a recent appeal for more Mexi-
cans, w. H. Kirkbride, Southern Pa
cific maintainence-of-way engineer,
declared the Mexican to be the south
vests answer, "The man Of muscle
with mind unimpaired with ism
ready to absorb the good things OF
America" and possessed of those
simple virtues that we so dearly cher
