mands until the day of their treason,
although the whole town and myself
knew the exact plan they had devised
and failed to use at the opening of
Congress"
The President said that, after fail
ing to strike at the opening of Con-
gress, the plotters set the date Of their
attempt for September Is, in connec-
ton with the national Independence
day, and later for September q, dur.
ing the military maneuvers.
Finally the revolt was begun the
night of October 2, when, in the
Presidents words, Gen. Almada took
to the field with those troops which
ne could deceive or induce to his re-
bellious adventure"
"Irrefutable proof of the existence
of previous plan of definite action"
he continued. was the simultaneous
uprising of Gomez at Perote (in Vera
CRUZ with two cavalry units, the
flight from Mexico City of Gomez and
Serrano 48 hours before the uprising,
and the fact that Almada upon leav-
ing Mexico City headed Immediately
for Perote, which was the concentra.
ton camp previously agreed upon.
Further Proof Cited.
Further proof is that simultaneous.
ly the 10th Regiment at Torreon, for
merly commanded by Gomez, attempt.
ed to revolt, and that other attempts
were made in the republic on the same
date by several agents of Serrano and
Gomez, inviting the military forces to
treason.
Il think I have plainly established
the truth OF the facts, and have shown
not only that there was not on the
part of the government intrigue or
frauugient Preparations against any
'oooy, put instead excessive trust.
That might have been a grave and
immediate danger for the government
"a FISK that calmly and conscien-
t1ously we accepted, moved by a desire
to justify, without limit, the demo-

also moved by our wish to make every

NORRIS CHARGES PROHIBITION
HAS NEVER HAD FAIR CHANGE
Says It Has Not Been Fairly
Enforced, but Is Par
tiSan Issue.
Fails to See Question of
Major Importance in
Campaign.
BY ROBERT BARRY.

Senator George w. Norris, Ne
braska, is not distinguished for con-
sistent agreement with his Republican
colleagues. but he is in accord with
them on the prohibition issue.
He does not believe it a question
likely to cause controversy on the
Republican side. He does not envis
age it as a major issue next year.
To him, other things are certain TO
prove more important.
''I have not regarded the prohibi-
ton issue as one that would enter
very greatly into the coming cam
paign," Senator Norris declared.
He speaks as an ardent dry, polit-
ically and personally, and as chair
man of the Senate judiciary commit
tee, which controls all prohibition
legislation in the upper house. Sena-
tor Norris typifies a considerable body
of farmer sentiment in the middle and
near West.
Enforcing Wet Favored.
The real significance of his inter
view was in these words:
"A wet President, assuming, of
course, that he would fairly enforce
existing law, would be much more
desirable to me than a dry who stood
for all other standpat kinds of legis-
lation, which to my mind is detri-
mental and injurious to real demo
cratic principles of government"
The veteran Progressive leader does
not undertake to say the agrarian
insurgents among his colleagues share
that sentiment. He is not in the
habit, however. of deferring to the
judgments of others. He stands for
his personal opinions.
Says Agitation Undesirable.
"I have not desired that prohibi-
campaign" Senator Norris declared,
II am one of those who believe, at
present at least, that there is no pos
sibility of repeating. the Volstead act
and that the agitation of the question
is not only unnecessary but undesir'
able.
II have been a consistent supporter
of prohibition, and from my knowledge
of the members of the two houses of
Congress, it is my belief that it is
perfectly idle for the opponents of pro.
hibition to expect to repeal the law,
or to obtain any modification of 1t that
will tend toward greater leniency in
it's enforcement. 1t seems, therefore,
that it ought not to be dominant ls'
sue in the campaign.
Other Issues Important.
Personally, regard other issues of
far greater Importance. I would pre-
fer President who was progressive in
his ideas and who stood for the proper
control of railroads, water power and
other progressive measures, even
though he were opposed to the Vol
stead act. In other words, DO not
think it is the only issue, and should
not be made the only issue.

1T do not believe that prohibition has
ever had fair chance. l do not be-
lieve it has ever been fairly enforced.
1t has been made a partisan, political
issue in many instances.
"NO Place in Politics."
Prohibition enforcement officers
have been appointed. not because of
their sincerity in enforcing the law,
but because they have been active in
a partisan way in keeping the machine
in power. 1t ought to be entirely elm
mated from politics.
Laws ought to be enforced regard
less of partisanShip but in the prohlbl-
ton question there is greater danger
in putting the enforcement of 1t on
the political pie-cOunter than any
other executive function. This is be-
cause there is so much money In the
violation of this law.
MEN are appointed to enforce the
law often for purely partisan reasons.
There is so much profit in the bust
ness that men creep into office under
the guise of partisanship and faith
ful political services, when the real
reason is to get into the bootlegging
business for the money there is In 1t.
Men of this kind can make enormous
contributions to the political machine
out of the profits of their unlawfui
business.
Criticism Held justified.
eff the President would select men
regardless of their partisanship, picked
entirely for their qualifications and
ability to enforce the law, and then
give the law a fair, honest test,
think we would get results that have
never been heretofore obtained, and
would meet the criticism so often JUS
tifiably made that the law is not being
enforced. It is time enough to talk
about any modification OF. repeal after
the law has had a reasonable oppor-
tunity by fair enforcement to show its
usefulness.
IT am one of those who believe that
fair and honest enforcement of this
law will convince the people of the
country, not only that it is necessary
to retain it, but that a vast amount
of good has been brought about on &C.
count of its enforcement"

1t is in the fashionning Of frOcks

sisters differ.
First of all there must always be
simplicity. If there is even ques-
ton about dress material being too

something else. If one must err in
choosing youthful clothes, l should
advise It be on the side Of plainness.
For, if CLOTHES make the girl
and they do--they should be modest
and devoid Of frills and furbel0ws,
for the young at least, SO they may
act as an encouragement to simple.
unaffected, maidenly manners.
Next to material and cut. color is
of prime Importance. Certain colOrs
are better for youth than others, and
these should be chosen. Fresh pinks,
blues, yellows, and most browns are
good. Sophisticated shades such as
chartreuse or the new raspberry-pur
pies should be avoided.
Ii you choose one color for Lu-
settles fall outfit, you will gain i'm
measurably in effectiveness, for
everything will match. Not the same
shade, by any means. But, suppose
it be russell brown you choose. Hen
mas will fit in perfectly, all the bois

greens, certain blnes blend perfectly,
and certain tans will tone in we'll.
