POWER TRUST
ROUTED IN
HOUSE

SALT LAKE CITY, Utah, Feb.
~ U.S.)-The building of Boulder
Dam was a step nearer last might
when the lower house of the State
legislature voted, As TO Z, to re-eutel
the six-State Colorado River com
pact.
The measure now goes to the
State senate, where the power
trust lobby forces already have con.
centrated in an effort to defeat
the growing will of the people OF
the State as expressed by the over.
whelming vote in the house today.
Secretary West Lauded
Proponents of Boulder Dam here
tonight were singing praises of Roy
o. West. Secretary of the Interior,
whose nomination for President
Coolidge's Cabinet was bitterly
fought in the United States Senate
on charges of his friendship for the
power interests.
letter from Secretary West 10
Chairman L. !. Holther. used as
the climax of the debate COM
pletely routed the power trust
iobby's effort to send the Boulder
Dam bill back to Congress snd OBJ
tain amendments looking toward
the building of dams at Flaming
Gorge and Dewey as a condition
of Utab's ratification of the Colo
RADIO River compact.
Claims Are ReIuted
This argument had been used by
the power forces with a somewhat
telling effect, UP TO the point of the
receipt Qf Secretary Vests letter.
The theory advanced by the power
people was that the two dams to be
constructed in Utah would reduce
the flood hazard at Black Canyon.
the site of Boulder Dam, and there
fore could be constructed out ofthe
same appropriation that is to be
made for the Boulder Dam project
Mr.. West declared this could not
be done His letter completely put
to rout the power lobby in 50 far
as that argument was concerned and
1t is believed here that this letter
will have good effect when the argu-
ments start in the Utah senate.

Yale men decide
which is best cigarette
Reproduced from the Yale Neocs, Jan. Is, 1921
OLD GOLD CIGARETTES WIN
FIRST IN TESTS AT YALE

In the recent cigarette test made
at the University, Old Colds were
chosen by the students as the best.
Instead of blindfolding the individ-
ual as has been done in the past the
cigarettes were masked by black
labels attached to each cigarette so
that the name of the brand was con-
cealed. Each label was numbered.
This was judged to be the most sport
ing way of testing the merits of the
four leading brands. Some 2O8 Yale
students were supplied with samples
of each cigarette and were asked to
smoke and compare the four dis
guised brands without knowing their
! identity.
They were merely to choose, by
number, the one that was the most
appealing to the taste.
' The News supervised the test on
January 18 at various fraternity
houses and in the News office
When the votes were recorded it
was discovered that OLD GOLD
Cigarette No. 3 had won. 1t re-
ceived more votes than any other
brand. Old Gold was given 63 first
choices, which was II per cent ahead
of Cigarette No. 2, 34per cent ahead
of Cigarette No. /, and s. per cent
ahead of Cigarette No. 4.

price the French do, though he won't get his American drinks.
 In Paris, as in all large cities in the world, there is enterprise to at tract the gold of tourists. Conven- tional tours of night life do not amount to much because the red sashed apaches exhibited are paid by the hour for the purpose, and the dark, mysterious dens" are under perfectly efficient police control.
 A recent dodge is to initiate the tourist into the private life of the authentic artist. This is on the square, and proving popular. Parties of four or five are taken to studios where sculptors and artists may be observed at work in their authentic atmosphere, and with models. But the artists and the sculptors are of the type that like to eat and are unable to do so with their art unless they strike a bargain with the tour ist agency for a percentage of the proceeds of these nocturnal visits.
 Visitors familiar with Paris find night life little changed. The one- tune artistic Montparnasse quarter, which degenerated into a rather po- verty-stricken Greenwich Village, is trying hard to bring the champagne business to the Left Bank, with all- night jazz and hectic dancing, but it has a long fight yet to outshine Montmarre. Such familiar cafes as the Dome, the Rotonde, the Select and others around the Boulevards Montparnasse, and Rashpail, still try to cling to old traditions.

POISON SOURCE IS
 SOUGHT BY POLICE
Authorities Think Tech Student May Have Taken Own Life

Boston, June 19 (UP)-Police sought to trace to it's source today the poison which ended the life of Dwight Underwood of Buffalo, N. Y. 24 year old Massachusetts Institute of Technology student, whose body was found at his Back Bay lodging house Sunday.
 Following a report from Associate Medical Examiner William Waters telling of the discovery of poison in the dead youths stomach. authori- ties favored a theory that he had committed suicide. This was partly substantiated by reports from rela- tives that the student had been Respondent because he was not tc graduate with his class.
 Police pointed to the fact, how. ever, that there was a possibility that Underwood, who, they said, had been drinking. had swallowed the poison by mistake. A quantity oi the poison was found in a cham pagne bottle in his room. where in. vestigators also discovered . bottle filled with champagne.
 o. M. Underwood of Buffalo, a brother. had arrived here today to claim the body.

RECOGNIZED AS BANTAM CHAMP
Panama Al Brown DeCisiVdy
 Defeats Gre6orio Of Spain

New York. June 19 R-The ban day that the New York state athle- tic commission, at least, could rec ognize-Panama Al Brown. ,, Brown whose 11S pounds Is dis tributed over a frame six feet high, decisively outpointed Vidal Gregorio, of Spain, in IS round bout at the Greensboro Stadium last night and thereby won recognition by the state commission as defending bantamweight champion of the world"
 The Panama negro, one of the cleverest boxers in the business, also lays claim to the National Boxing association's 11S pound champion ship. Brown claims he was recog- nized as champion by Tom Dono- hue, Connecticut boxing commits sioncr, when Donohue was president of the N. B. A. Donohue. however. announced last night that it no longer recognized anyone as king of the 11S pounders.
 Browns decisive victory over Gregorio did have the effect of clearing up some part of the tangled situation in the division brought about two years ago when Charley Phil Rosenberg came in overweight for a titular fight and forfeited his crown.
 The skinny negro outboxed the game Spaniard the whole way and floored him three times in the 18th round. Only in this frame, however, was Gregorio in danger of a knock out. From start to finish he ploN- ed forward, vainly trying to get out of the way of the negro's long left hand. Throughout fifteen rounds of fighting Gregorio landed scarcely q dozen effective blows.
 In the 18th, Brown suddenly re- versed tactics. Instead of keeping the Spaniard off with his left, the negro waited for an opening and shot across right cross that stag gered Gregorio. A series of rights sent the Spaniard to the floor fo- count of five. another dropped him for eight and still another for no count, the bell saving him from

MEXICAN CATHOLIC
 AGREEMENT READY
Basis Of Settlement Submitted
 to Vatican by Telegram

Mexico City, June ls @-The Mexican government and emissaries of the Vatican have agreed upon . basis of settlement of the Mexican religious controversy. Today approv- al of the Pope was all that was needed to make the agreement ef- fective and permit an episcopate or der returning the priests to Mexican churches.
 Broader Interpretation
 The settlement, as arrived at by President Portes Gil and Monsignor Leopoldo Ruiz y Flores, archbishop Of Michoacan, and Bishop Pascual Diaz of Tabasco. with United States Ambassador Morrow as intermedl- ary. does not involve constitutional changes, but is merely g broader in- terpretation of the religious laws and their constitutional background.
 The agreement is similar. if not. indeed, Identical. to that reached last year in negotiations between Prest- dent Gales and Archbishop Ruiz, which had their beginning in se- cret meeting in the old fortress at San Juan De Ulua. island in the harbor of Vera Cruz. Vatican ap- proval at that time was delayed. until in July the assassination of General Alvaro Obregon. president elect, with ensuing charges of Ro- man Catholic participation, compli- cated the entire situation.
 Reached on Monday
 The present settlement was reach- ed Monday afternoon in the course of conferences between Ambassador Morrow and President Portes Gil and Ambassador Morrow and the two Mexican bishops.

 Haste Hoped For
 A high authoritative source here stated early today that unless tho Vatican ratihes the present settls- ment, and acts quickly on 1t, sthere is not much possibility that anything further will be accomplished to- ward settlement for some time to come.

YALE TEAM DRUbS :. HARVARD COMBINE ',

Cambridge, Mass, June 19 FN Harvard's baseball team faced the necessity of beating Yale here today If an otherwise successful season vas to be saved from disaster. The Ellis yesterday gave the Crimson an unmerciful It to ] drubbing before 10000 Yale graduates and students at New Haven.

 Five Harvard pitchers looked alike to the Yale batsmen at New Haven. The Ellis pounded out 20 hits and knocked Howie Whittmore, Harvard ace, out of the box in the fourth. Johnny Prior, regular first baseman, finally had to come to the rescue in the seventh, when Yale scored seven runs, and he finished the game. Meanwhile Jeff Sawyer scattered Harvard's eleven hits so we'll that only one run was scored against him.
 Butch" Loud. probably Yale's best pitcher this season, was due to face Rcd" Machale on the mound today, with the rest of the lineup On each side as it was yesterday. Machale and Warren Page, south- paw, were both held out of what soon became a hopeless cause at New Haven. They have done most of the pitching this year when Whit more did not have the assignment.
