INDIAN OFFICER
KILLS ALLEGED
RUM SMUCCLER

TUCSON, Ariz., June %. U.H-
The Jones "five and ten" law,
which makes a felony of transport
alton of liquor, today appeared as a
barrier to possible prosecution of
Indian Policeman Jose Ascencio, of
the Papago reservation, who early
Tuesday shot and fatally wounded
Jose Lopez, 22, when the latter at
tempted to escape from custody of
Officer Ascencio and another guard.
4 coroner's jury yesterday found
that Lopez came to his death from
bullet fired from Ascencio's pis-
tol. Judge A. Jones instructed the
jury that under the law an officer
might not shoot a person charged
with Il misdemeanor but cited the
Jones law Interpretation of trans
portation as a felony. Lopez had
been arrested on charges of drunk
enness and transporting liquor.
The shooting occurred near the
Sells reservation as Lopez was be-
ing transferred to Tucson in the
officers automobile. The officers
testified they fired at the ground
when Lopez started running in or
der to frighten him. Ascencio
claimed a bullet from his pistol
glanced off boulder and struck
Lopez. He died on an operating
table.

THRILLING WAR
NOVEL IS ALSO
SCREEN SUCCESS

The book which smashed all sales
records last year and which won
the unanimous approval of critics
and readers alike, comes in screen
form to the Airdome tonight, and
as a picture it is agaln breaking all
records.
"All Quiet on rne western Front"
was the first and the most popular
of war books giving the German
side of that titanic struggle.
While it is a war story, it most
emphatieally does not glorify the
profession of arms, and on the con-
trary shows up war for futile and
pathetic effort to tsettle differ
enees.
Lewis Milestone directed the pro-
duction and lived up to his name
when he turned il over the public
for distribution.
A most noteworthy cast is seen
in the leading roles. Among them
are Louis Wolheim, Lewis Ayres,
John Wray, Raymond Griffith,
"Slim" Summerville, Renee Da-
monde, Poupee Andriot, Edmund
Breese and host of others.
"All Quiet on the Western Front"
is dramatic, intense and thrilling
1t is the sort of picture folks talk
about for months after seeing it.

Bank OF Italy
Meets Defeat

Sinking under a barrage of hits
in the eighth inning which netted
four runs for the Cramer Bakery's
entrants in the city night indoor
baseball league, the Bank of Italy
squad had to take the short end of
l7-l2 score in the second game
of the schedule played on the VIII
son school grounds last night.
The game was a toss-up until this
fatal eighth when the issue was
definitely decided. Price. Pearson
and j. b. Evans were the main
cogs III the winners attack, each
polling out three hits, one of Evans
being for the circuit. r. +. Smith
and Lingo did their bit for the los
ers but could not overcome the more
persistent attack of the winners.

the Valley Lumber company against
f. Garlic and Cornelio Gonzales by

rior court, this morning The case
was opened before Judge Finney
yesterday morning, with NJ. c.

forged and that, therefore, he was
not responsible in the matter. The
plaintiff had asked judgment in the
sum indicated above against both OF
the defendants and the verdict of
the jury was rendered that way.

Judge Dancy Saved the Day

County Judge J. Oscar Dancy Of Cameron Is one
Of the champion road builders Of Texas. He led the
fight against the adoption of a resolution that would
have recommended state highway commissioners be
elected instead Of appointed BY the governor and
then the County Judges and Commissioners associa-
ton Of Texas tabled the measure. This Rio Grande
Valley road builder is known as Hard Road Dancy.
He IS for highways. he is for an elective commission,
he Is for honesty in contracts as we'll as in Severn
mert and he goes all the way.
Resolutions adopted by the state association OF
county judges and commissioners favored the pro-
posed constitutional amendment that would permit
counties TO tax university lands for county purposes.
a kindred resolution calls upon the state legislature
to enact a law that would permit the counties to tax
the school lands. the valuation of the lands TO be
fixed by the state tax board. Permission of counties
for tax municipal reservoir sites beyond city limits Is
urged in another resolution. the valuations TO be fixed
by the state tax board.
This resolution affects large municipal water sup.

Lake Dallas In Denton county. There are four con-
s~titutional amendments to be voted upon In Novem-

Birth Control and Five Day Week
For Labor

A statement favoring a five-day week for industry
and an intelligent attitude toward birth control was
adopted by the commission on social justice Of the
central conference OF American Rabbis in convention
in the city OF Baltimore. This Is the argument for
a fiye-day week for labor.
IF our constantly improving machinery with It's
displacement OF human workers IS not to produce un-
employment before II produces ought else. not only
must the number OF working days a week be re-
duced; there must also be a diminution Of working
hours a day with corresponding increases OF wage
rates enabling all workers to earn sufficiently"
Furthermore the statement suggests that invest
ments be withheld from enterprises where reasonable
standards Of hours. wages and working conditions are
ignored and should be directed TO these whose stand
ards are high. There is no plan Of procedure set
forth. On birth control the statement reads:
Following In the wake Of the central conference
of American Rabbis Universalists. Methodists, Pres
byterians and Unitarians have. of late. resolved upon
an intelligent attitude Of birth control. Birth is one
of the many forces OF nature which like steam, air,
gravitation. electricity, and chemical valence, sue
cumbs to human control as civilization progresses
Where intelligent regulation OF birth can avert suf-
fering and degradation the voice Of mercy speaks.
That voice should not go unhseded."
All this is a reminder that there is a new civiliza-
ton and that the order Of things appears to have
been handed a solar plexus blow by the makers of the
new civilization. In the not remote past advocates Of
birth control were given jail sentences in certain
American states and advocates Of a five-day week
for labor we're classified as advanced socialists or
hungry communists by those who disapproved most
emphatically OF their proposal. Now the ministerial
voices OF an ancient people and their gospel boldly 60
