NEW NEWSPAPER CHAIN IN BRITAIN.

The chain-newspaper system is not strictly an American institution In fact it is wide spread, proportionatey to the size of the coun- tries, in Great Britain than this side of the Atlantic. There several large companies in Great Britain that control more publications than any American concern and that have more money invested in their enterprises than have the American publishers unless MT Hearst must be excepted.
 Just the other day a chain of publica- lions was born in Great Britain when the Inyersk Paper Company, which controls number of busi- ness concerns, chiefly paper making mills, pur- chased the Daily Chronicle and Sunday News of London, the Edinburgh Evening News, the York shire Evening News and the Doncaster Gazette
 The Chronicle has been of the stanchest Liberal papers in England, and when it sold recently by MT. Lloyd George to the Daily Chron- ice Investment Company a guarantee given for the maintenance of the Liberal policy of the paper. That guarantee has been repeated by the new owners

A New York longshoreman employed at Ho- obeying the order of Customs Guard to turn them over to him. The officer Immediately shot and killed the longshoreman. The Prosecuting Attorney of Hudson County N. J., caused war rant to be issued for the Customs officer, charg- ing him with murder The United States Attor- ney and the County Prosecuting Attorney spent sometime quarreling to whether or not the Customs officer and his alleged crime within the jurisdiction of the United States that of the State of New Jersey The United States lawyer insisted that it a matter for the Federal courts, and he said without reservations that the Customs officer within his rights when he shot 10 kill. The New Jersey lawyer insisted that there was a prima facie of murder, and that the should be tried on the charge. However, the Department of Justice at Washington finally decided for the State court and the accused turned over.
 This is just another of those that have risen under the Volstead Act where official, toting a gun. has been quick with the tigger and after killing a suspected of having con- mitted misdemeanor, has the United States At torneys behind him in his efforts to escape pun ishment for his act.

Alvaro ObregOn.
Manchester Guardian ]

The murder of Alvaro Obregon is calamity even in Mexico where political crime is of everyday occurrence. His predecessor Gales, guided Mexico through perilous years The con fct with the oil interests nearly led to war with the U S. A. The Governments offensive against the Mexican clergy tmany of whom are wealthy land owners) stirred up deep hostility among the Roman Catholics of the U. s. A. and made the crisis all the difficult for Mexico. But the skilfu diplomacy of Gales ayerted a He was helped by the American Federation of Labor, which is in friendly contact with the Mexican trade unions. Obregon the right man to consolidate the work Gales had begun It seemed as though his Presidency would peace with the U. s. A. permanently established the Vatican reconcled, and the Mexican clergy submissive to the State. The murder of Obregon has mperiled this prospect for the time being. Mexico has always been a savage country Both the rule of Gales and Obregon full of voilence and oppression But it was better than the anarchy that went before, and it carried the Mexican Revolution towards the still distant but per haps not unattainabe liberation of the poverty stricken peons from the exploitation of the great landowners. During the past month the Pope had practically drawn up an agreement with a Vatican emissary, Archbishop Flores re- gently returned from Mexico, agreement which General Obregon would have accepted Mean Catholics of Mexico different from those given to any country-no interference in political issues and passive resistance to persecution

SMITH TO STRESS GOVERNMENTAL
 REORGANIZATION.

The New York Herald Tribune says Gov. Smith expects to develop into a cardinal cam paign appeal the plank in the Democratic plat form calling for realignment of the depart ments, bureaus, commission, etc, at Washington on business basis. It continues that Gov. Smith intends, if elected, to carry his State program of governmental reorganization into Fed eral affairs. He will, the Herald Tribune says, pledge consolidation of Federal bureaus etc, the elimination of divided authority and over tapping functions. He will contend during the campaign that such policy effectively carried out will contribute to both efficiency and economy.
 Gov. Smith may find in the end that his pro- gram will not tend to increase his popularity with the bureaus However. there is no evidence that he is getting much support from them

Williams opposed it, but it adopted by large ma Jority in a convention the majority of whose members were women. MT. Williams then re- fused to run for Congress, and Judge White was induced to accept the nomination, though he had not been candidate. MT. Williams, beaten in the convention, supported the dry Republican and predicted that he would be victorious. Judge White was elected by 5000 majority, the first Democrat to go to Congress from the Denver district in dozen years or so

More or Less True

iuOIC UT GCSS | rue Most of the worry parents have

 A girl in a one-piece bathing
 suit now gets tanned by the sun.
 but it might do her more good if
 her father would devote little
 of his time to tanning her.
 One of the most surprising
 things is that wives still are sery-
 ing the stuff from the cans on china plates that have to be wash ed instead of on paper ones that
 can be dumped into the garbage can.
 If it takes a girl one hour and
 thirty seconds to get ready to go
 out the hour is spent putting on things above her neck. Instead of resting under lit- tie mound woman's former hus- band now is more apt to be resting under a big financial obligation imposed by the divorce judge.

That suggestion of Senator Curtis for a joint Senate and House committee to study and report system fo farm relief might be all right but it's promulgation seems much like an afterthought. Farm relief has been one of the big themes in three sessions of Congress and throughout all of them Senator Curtis was the majority leader in the Senate. Why didn't he think of something before he became candidate for Vice-President and started out after votes?
