ADAMS TO COME
BEFORE COUNCIL.
Will Tell What He Meant BY
Bribery Statement

Boston, Dec. IS up - The city
council today had voted unanimous
ly to accept the provisions of the
statewide referendum, ratified last
November to permit Sunday sports.
but the nov more important ques-
ton of the charges made by Charles
7. Adams. vice president of the
Boston National league baseball!
club. remained TO be answered.
Adams, who had previously re-
fused to testify before the Boston
finance commission concerning
statements he was alleged to have
made that an unnamed councillor
had solicited a bride for early &C.
ton on the sports measure. was to
appear next Wednesday and do 50.
His change of attitude came
after his attorney had conferred
with Judge Edward P. Pierce Of the
supreme court. The finance commits
sion had threatened to cite him be-
for his refusal to recognize its
jurisdiction.
Three Hour Debate
The vote on the sports measure
in council came only after a three
hour debate in which Adams and
Mayor Malcolm Z. Nichols were
bitterly attacked. The assault on
Adams was based on his alleged in.
situations, while the mayor was un-
der fire for his purported attempt
to whip" the council into action
by means of special meeting call
cd last week to take action on the
bill.
President Thomas Green defend
ed the mayor and declared that he
was responsible for the special
meeting on December II and that
council should have acted then.
Adams only comment on the
unanimous passage of the bill was
that the council members had
'sown the wind but they may reap
a whirlwind'
Il have lust one regret" he de.
clared. ''and that is that there are
some honest men in the city coun.
Gil who temporarily have been sub.
Jected to suspicion but / fancy that
the finance commission will be able
to separate the sheep from the
goats.'

Two year, for a pari. divorce

Two years for q Paris divorce
from demand to receipt is the aver
age time estimated by lawyers.
The Paris bar favors a return to
former procedure which finished off
cases in Is months at latest.
What lawyers are asking for spe-
officially is the return of the ''di-
vorce by mutual consent" Under
this system, the Judge received
couples seeking divorce in his Of
flee before court opened. These
cases were not inscribed on the
court register and the lawyers linn
tied their eloquence to brief re-
marks.
The method was expeditions.
Most lawyers feel that listing all
divorce cases on the court regis
ter is like throwing monkey
wrench into the already slowmov-
ing wheels Of justice.
Postponement of cases scheduled
for trial should be made more diff
ficult. it is felt.

AN OLD FRIEND PASSES

The death of Colonel Robert H. Ingersoll in Den
Yer this week will recall to the minds of many present
fathers the delight which they knew in boyhood
through the possession of of the coone's famous
Ingersoll watches
generation ago the word In9ersoll instantly con-
]ured up TO the mind of Young America the most
treasured possession that could be obtained
Many youth scrimped and saved until he had ac-
cumulated dollar the standard price of the Ingerso
watch Indeed the word Ingersoll almost
standard as the dollar itself.
Compared with the dainty wrist watch of today
the Ingersoll a bulky turnip. 1t a cheap
watch but every one of them gave full value from
money standpoint. Viewing them through the minds
of youth they were worth their weight in gold.
We recall a certain Ingersoll that our very
after rewards for sundry chores and errands had
been built up into dollar. 1t hard to keep from
spending the accumuatng nckels and dimes for other
things, but felt amply repaid in the Joy gave
pull that old turnip every three minutes,
only the time but also the look of envy
the faces of the other kids who didn't have such
treasure
Later horseshoe fob added to the watch,
terrible thing in retrospect but the eighth
der of the world at that time The watch did service
for much longer than its guaranteed period of year
Eventually its bright nickel finish assumed brassy
hue, it developed convusiOns and like "Grandfathers
Clock" it curled up and died.
1t seems a cruel trick of fate to read that the
who made such simple boyhood joys possible for
than three decades chronic invalid. He deserved
a better deal than that. Many of the boys that
men now will echo the thought Peace to his
ashes.

Up IN THE AIR

Again the eyes of the world will be ccnered on
California as the transcontnenta air Derby and its
affiliated air projects travel toward the Pacific Coast
More than thirty of the finest commercial air.
planes built wnging their way across the
country, Following them by day two will be as
many more, placed in different classification. Along
the southern route is squadron Of big army bombers,
also headed for the coast
Meanwhile scores Of famous pilots and their ships
along the Pacific gathering for the big air carnival
Los Angeles, which will prove fitting conclusion to
the Derby. The program will last for week and
should draw thousands Of spectators.
America is vitality interested in all that pertains
aviation Its air mind, the experts term this IN
terest, is being developed more and more each day
Thus far there have been a few mishaps in the
course of the Derby, of them really serious. This
is not heter-skelter catch-as-cach-can undertaking,
but the result of carefully developed plans to stimulate
air interest Each ship has been carefully inspected;
pilots have been Just carefully tested; controls have
been established short intervals and all ships
quired check in and check out before group Of air
officials.
This is the right method to follow if air contests
are to result benefically. There is enough normal
risk without inensfying it by using poor planes, mex
perienced pilots and making efficiency subserven to
speed.
The Derby schedule calls for the planes to pass
over Imperial Valley some time Saturday. They are
not to stop here unless forced landing is necessary
Somehow il seems little too bad that Imperial Valley
is not vet favorably known in air circles Yuma alive

CONSIDER THE RABY

Another "eugenics baby is made known to the
world and receives the usual of notorety that
of things.
1t does pity that those responsible for the
birth of child under such conditions cannot keep the
matter to themselves, solely for the sake of the child
Ihere is no getting away from the truth that the
institution of marriage has stood the test of time
various lads and attempts to crcumvent it spring up
from time to time and always will, yet marriage re-
mains as firmly entrenched as Gibraltar itself
Granting true the claims of the "eugenic moth
er that there is for shame about her mother
hood nevertheless it appears to be the height selfish
ness to parade the facts before the world.
1t Is impossible to consult the child as to whether
or not the circumstances surrounding its birth shall be
revealed to the public 1t grows up in world where
marriage is the established order Eventually someone
is going to ask about its father Possibly playmate
nnocently enough, perhaps prompted by conversa-
tlonS 1t has heard at home There is no cruelty like
the sharp and thoughtless cruelty of children.
When the child learns the truth what is it going
to think about it? Is not reasonable to believe that
1t Will feel cheated out of something that is its due
something that all other children have? Is it not
possible that will hate the parents who deprived it
OF the rights and privileges its paymates? Is
1t fair to condemn innocent child to bear the taunts
and surs of the world even though the mother sin
cerely believes these to be unjust?
Granting any woman the right to motherhood un-
der these circumstances if she DESIRES it only
fair that she should take every precauton protect
the child from the possibility of life of sorrow.
There certain fundamentals in life that can
not be lodged All of US bound by rules and con-
Ventlons which though they be rksome occasionally
have been stamped by the experience of time
sary tor the protection of society We must abide by
them if to demand and hold the respect of 9TH
To attempt to flout them is useless buting
ones head against stone wall
Marriage is of these fundamentals and to go
contrary to 1t to invite disaster to the individual and
Above all it is unfair to the child the only whom
1t really hurts.

Eased on the adventures of n
slick promoter who comes to a
small town with get rich quick
scheme, Paramount 8 w. c. Fields,
Chester Conklin team picture Fools
for Luck, which opens tonight at
the Airdome Thcater, is an out
standing example of the new type
of motion picture comedy.
In other words it is a comedy
which derives it's humor from funny
situations worked in logical fashion
through an interesting story rather
than from disconnected series Of
articles designed solely to get
laughs.
The picture tells Il straight away
story of the flighty promoter land
ing in the small town with empty
pockets but grip full of oil stock.
Ills activities involve the leading
citizen of the town and have IN i'm
portant bearing upon the love affair
Of that citizen 5 beautiful daughter.
The locale is the average small
town in the United States and II Is
noteworthy that this comedy a
chieves humor through logical char
acterizations without the slightest
tinge of distortion.
Small town life is pictured as it
actually is-just normal existence
not greatly different from that in
the city. The people of Hmtersville,
the town pictured, are just human
beings, not hicks or jays.
w. c. Fields has the role of the
smooth tongued promoter who makes
ordinarily intelligent people pay out
good money for prettify engraved
paper and smile about doing it. ChcS
ter Conklin is the substantial citi-
zen who has n beautiful daughter,
