WOMAN MAYOR OF EUREKA MAY
BECOME VICTIM OF RECALL

EUREKA, Calf, Feb. 1. U.H
The political strength of a
woman who became mayor Of a
frontier town will be tested
soon. it was indicated today as
a petition was circulated asking
that Mayor Emily Jones be re-
called.
Eureka for many years en-
loved the reputation of being
the largest county seat in the
United States without rail
road. The railroad was a modern
addition but Eureka remained a
frontier towr. stronghold of the
lumberjacks.
That is. it was a frontier
town until at the last election
Mrs. Jones was named as may
or. She didn't intend to be
sensational and try to
"clean up" her city.
But only a few weeks ago it
seemed that Mayor Jones had
a change of heart. She ABRUPT

FREEDOM FOR
ISLANDS MADE
DEBATE TOPIC

NEW YORK, Feb. l. W.H-The
question of Philippine independence,
brought into the public eye again
by recent disturbances in California,
was debated before the New York
Foreign Policy Association today.
Manuel Roxas, speaker of the Phil
ippine house of representatives and
head of a special delegation now
petitioning congress for freedom,
and Nicholas Roosevelt, authority
on far eastern affairs, were the
speakers.
Filipinos entertain the deepest
gratitude for the United States, but
they are convinced they possess the
ability to maintain an Independent
government of their own, RoXas as
serted.
Roosevelt, on the other hand, con-
tended that if the Islands were set
free they would at once "become the
prey of unscrupuloNs foreign ma
tions." Further, he said, the bal
ance of power in the Pacific would
be upset and "might well invite the
gravest political disorders there"

"for the good Of the service"
Eureka buzzed, and guessed
that prohibition conditions were
at the basis of the moves, but
did nothing.
Then Mayor Jones acted
again. More police heads fell.
And then things started. The
city council reinstated the GUST
ed men over the woman mayors
head.
Mayor Jones brought into play
the federal prohibition forces,
or at least rumor credited her
with this move on the political
chess board.
There was one answer that
elements dissatisfied with Mrs.
Jones administration could
make-the recall provided under
California law.
Three hundred more slghers
We're sought today TO augment
the 700 already secured anu

CANON CITY, Colo, Feb. !. W.R)
----Firemen after stubborn fight
today prevented fire in the carpent-
er shop of the Canon City state pen
itentiary from spreading to other
buildings.
Guards maintained order among
eonvicts while the fire was in prog
ross.
One prisoner. Daniel Reardon, was
suffering from knife wound.
He claimed he received the wound
while blocking the attempt Of 4
group of prisoners to escape.
Warden Francis f. Crawford dis
credited his story, denying that
there was any move on the part of
the convicts to make break for
liberty.
"Our guards had the situation in
hand throughout the fire" the ward
en- said. "Thev came in contact
with no prisoners who were seeking
to escape Not shot was fired"
The warden attributed the attack
on Reardon to a grudge of other
eonvicts who saw chance TO even
scores with him during the excite
ment attending the fire, for aid
given during the riot last fall.
Three eonvicts were injured in
fighting the fire. Their names were
not disclosed by prison authorities.
One convict fell three stories
when a ladder leaning against the
carpenter shop building broke and
hurled him to the ground.
lie fell on another convict, iniur.
ing him. Still another convict was
slightly hurt.
When the fire in the carpenter
shop assumed serious proportions,
prisoners were removed from cell
house No. and held under guard
in the court yard of the prison.
Start Investigation
They were returned to their cells
after the fire was brought under con
troll
The fire consumed $4,000 worth of
clothing and material in the tailor
shop, housed in the same building
with the carpenter shop, and burned
about $4,000 worth of materials in
the carpenter shop.
The damage to the building was
not estimated. 1t is an old structure
that can be repaired with convict
labor.
Warden Crawford Immediately
started an investigation to deter.
mine the cause of the fire, which
was believed to have been of incen.
diary origin, possibly started by
prisoners planning an escape at

Prompt action was taken to guard
against any renewal of rioting in
