PUBLIC RECORDS

The first big public question COM
ing before Attorney General Allins
since he took office was the public
ity of marriage intentions under the
new five-day marriage law. The at
torney general decided that in a
popular manner and stands ace-high
around the state.
Several town clerks about the
state, however, are greatly irritat-
ed; one or two have stated they do
not intend to abide by the Alling
decision until forced to do so
through specific orders from DR..
Osborne, state health commissioner,
who has jurisdiction over marriage
statistics.
The Bridgeport Telegram reads
the riot act to town clerks in the
following:
Public records are public property
as matter of common law. If a
citizen demanded to see a public
record and it was denied to him he
might obtain a mandamus, requir-
ing 1t to be produced. If such a rec
ord were to be concealed from him
by dec@ltful means and subsequent
ly he suffered loss because of such
concealment, he might sue the town
clerk CT other official and collect
from the bordsmen.
In the case of marriage inten-
tions, their purpose being to prevent
GnWise. fraudulent or illegal mar
riages, a town clerk or other Of
fetal VINO concealed the marriage
intentions and in so doing aided or
abetted a crime, would be particeps
criminals and might be proceeded
against, as an accessory.
Thus a bigamist seeking a license
might bribe the town clerk or regis
try official to conceal the marriage
Intentions. Subsequently such Il
town clerk would be liable TO Grim
inal prosecution for having aided in
u crime.
Or parents of an clipping couple
might bring suit for damages, be-
cause an Official concealing the
marriage intentions, had robbed
them Of the right (accorded to them
under the law of being informed
OF the approaching marriage.

Defense Asks for
Carols Return at
Trial Of Follower

BUCHAREST, Nov. IL. - An eff
fort to secure the return of Prince
Carol to Roumania to act as a wit
ness in the case of former Secretary
of State Manoilescu, charged with
conspiracy to dethrone King Michael
in favor of Prince Carol, has been
made by the defense in the trial of
Manoilescu.
Manoilescu's counsel declares that
Prince Carols testimony is necessary
and they have also asked the adjourn
ment of the trial until other witnesses
can arrive in Bucharest.
Call Martial Law Illegal.
The defense has also taken excep-
tions to the constitution of the court,
but it's objections have been over
ruled.
There are five members of the mill
tary court conducting the case, with
Col. Vladiscu, presiding.
The chief contention of the defense
so far is that the court is not compe-
tent to judge the case, because the ma
ton sis not legally under martial
law"

March Of JObIeSS
Miners TO London
Gathering Strength

LONDON, Nov. II. - Despite the
cold and their march from Bristol,
four hundred jobless British miners
left Bath this morning for Chippen-
ham. Headed by A. j. Cook, Secre-
tary of the British Miners Federation,
the miners are marching to London
where they will present Parliament
with message calling its attention
to the widespread misery and dest-
tuition in the coal fields.
On their arrival in Bath the min
ers were greeted by workers dele
cation which had provided food and
quarters for them. Bath workers ac-
companied the marching miners for
a few miles.

By SEIZO OGINO.

Thousands of Nationalist and Kou-
mingtang flags are waving today
above the narrow streets of the Chi
nese quarters of all the large cities
of the world in honor of the birthday
Of the dead, yet everything leader Of
the Chinese Revolution, Sun Vat Sen.
DR.. Sun, who devoted forty years of
his life fighting for the emancipation
of the 4O0,0O0,000 Chinese from re-
dictionary Manchus, war lords, and
foreign imperialists, never permitted
his followers to pay him any personal
honor. He kept his birthday secret
and this is only the second one that
has been observed on a large scale.
In New York City, as thousands of
Chinese residents open their meeting
tonight with three ceremonial bows
before the picture of Sun Vat Set,
many of them will recall their associa-
ton with the great leader during his
three visits to this city. DR.. G. Y.
Lee, artist and sculptor and an old
resident of Chinatown was one of DR..
Suns close associates during the
exile's stay in this city.
True to DIR. Sun.
When interviewed yesterday at the
headquarters of the Left Wing Kou-
mingtang, 81 Bayard Street, Mr.. Lee
spoke with reverence and enthusiasm
about Sun Vat Sen. Mr.. Lee seemed
to have caught something of the spirit
of. the dead leader who refused to be
discouraged during the darkest days
of exile and apparent failure as he
translated for us the big posters and
banners which hung on the walls of
the headquarters surrounding the life
sized picture of DR.. Sun.

Study Soviet Labor

PLYMOUTH, England, Nov. II
(FP) Three and twenty American
rank and file trade unionists, on their
way to observe Soviet Russia's cele-
bration of the 10th anniversary of her
revolution, have been discovering
America enroute.
Sixteen sessions held aboard the
SIS. Lancashire gave opportunity for
the discussion of leading American
trade union problems, from the B. &
o. plan to organization of the unor-
ganized. AS result, the American
workers are entering the Soviet Uni
ion with better conception of their
own labor movement and the program
needed to extend it to include all
workers.
Study Unionism.
The excursion, which is to spend
weeks studying various phases of
trade unionism in Russia, has divided
into 5 groups: mining, manufacturing
building trades, transportation and
government. After the first week of
the 10th anniversary celebration, each
group will visit different Russian
cities investigating conditions in their
special industries.
The national committee of the ex-
cursion was reorganized with William
Watkins, president of switchmen's To-
cal 206 of st. Paul as chairman. 9th
err members are Robert King, New
Haven, Conn, machinists' union; Ed
ward A. Stock, San Jose, Calf, cleo
trical workers union; Ernest Lundeen,
Minneapolis, Mimi, Farmer-L Labor
Assn.-former congressman; and Har-
vey O'Connor, research director.

Mob FiIipinOs in
"DividG and Rule"
Tactic Of Bosses

YAKIMA, Washington, Nov. IL
Business men interested in the hop
fields of this rich valley are concen-
trating campaign of race prejudice
against about three hundred Filipino
hop-pickers, and calling on American
workers to prove that they are better
hop-pickers, and can do more work
for less money.
The fires of hatred raised by these
tactics have gotten so far out of hand
that three different mobs have started
to "clean out" the Filipinos employed
on the Yakima Indian Reservation
farms, and have caused many of them
to leave. Scores without railroad fare
are being driven along the country
roads, chased on from point to point
by the town officers.
A few days ago a mob raided a
Filipino settlement near Toppendish,
broke up houses and beat up a num-
Der of the inhabitants.
Another mob started later, but was
persuaded to disband near Wapato.
Still a third mob is reported to be
forming. Wild stories of Filipinos
insulting" women are used to fan the
hatred.

January.
The Cuban government has in
formed Geneva that it knows of no

to give any attention to Pan-American
affairs, lest it encourage Latin
Americans to resist domination from

blare of trumpets and boom of cannon

versary of the establishment of the

Russia have not drowned the voices
of the American labor martyrs, Sacco

vent it," were among the first ques-
tions fired at the American rank and

as it crossed the border between Fin
land and Russia

The delegation was met at the bor-
der by large reception committee Of
Leningrad trade unionists. When they
reached Leningrad, the birthplace of
the revolution, an even greater ova.
ton awaited them. The Russian
workers showed a great interest In
everything that is happening In
America. They wanted to know about
the new Ford, when it is coming Out
and whether Ford's plants are union-
lied.
November Celebrations.
The delegation proceeded immedi-
ately from Leningrad to Moscow in
order to be present at the big celebra-
ton there which was featured by a
parade of 10000 trained troops fol-
lowed by 100000 trade unionists-
Hour after hour this gigantic parade
passed by Lenin's tomb just outside
the historic walls of the Kremlin.
On top of the tomb reviewing the
parade stood Kalinin, president of the

luton belonged to the poorest class of
the peasantry.

INSTRUMENT TO
 MEASURE WIRE
 CHANGES MADE
New Invention Is Most Re. fined Measuring Device
 Ever Perfected

NEW YORK, Sept. 21.-An in. strument which measures a bill. ionth of an inch or millionth of a degree of temperature was exhibited recently by the Bell Telephone laboratories.
 This device, which is the most refined measuring apparatus in existence, is the recently perfect. ed development of P. P. Cioffi and was constructed to measure the minute contractions and ex- pansions which wires of different composition undergo when they are magnetized
 Before the new instrument was invented the most delicate appa- ratus for determining length was the interserometer which employs wave lengths of light for meas nring purposes. The Cioffi instru- ment is approximately 100 times more sensitive than the inter- serometer change of II ,O0n part of degree is sufficient to cause a spark to race across the. measuring scale.

CANADA PLANS
 REDUC TON OF
 FISHING GEAR

OTTAWA, Sept. 21-Reports made from time to time to the Department of Marine and Fish cries indicate very unsatisfac- tory condition in the salmon in- dustry on the Pacific Coast throughout the entire season. So acute has the situation become. it is stated officially. that the Department has received an in timatien that both canners and fishermen are about to join in a demand looking to reduction
 in the number of canneries and
 also reduction i'll the amount of equipment to be used.
 The canners represent that in the interests of conservation as
 we'll as the view to the re-estab-
 fishing of more economic basis
 of operating than that at present
 in force, some steps should be
 taken as early as possible toward
 effecting a substantial reduction
 in the amount of gear used and limiting the number of canning plants allowed to operate.
 The canners further submit it | is imperative that any scheme
 which can be endorsed by a ma 1 jority if not all the canners as well as fishermen must be ap- proved and made effective by taccordant action on the part of the Government and they have forwarded requests to be advised whether in event of canners and fishermen working out joint plan definitely fixing the amount of gear and the number of can neries which in their opinion should be permitted in given
 areas for stated period, such action will be taken.
 Officers of the Department are
 hesitant, it is said, to express any definite opinion with regard
 to the requests made by the can
 ners in the absence of further information as to the extent to which the adoption of the policy
 suggested would affect the gen
 eral public interest.
