OF FEDERATION
President Rebukes State
Heads for Taking Too
Much Authority

DENVER, Colo, June i3.-tF-
Initial rumblings OF q controversy
which for days has threatened to
reach the floor OF the Biennial
Convention of the General Fedora
ton ow Women's Clubs were heard
today when Mrs. John T. Sippel OF
Baltimore, Federation president. re-
primanded the State Presidents for
taking action she considered outside
their province.
The rebuke as administered at a
meeting OF the board OF directors,
OF which the state presidents are
members, held after last nights ses-
sion. 1t was learned that indorse-
ment OF a member for chairman
ship was involved.
Since the convention opened q
week ago yesterday, the succession
OF officials as heads OF committees
has provided an open question. and
failure of the executive committee
to renominate at least two chair
men for their present posts has
been somewhat freely prophesied at
the convention hall.
These chairmen are Mrs. j. G.
Pearson Of Marshall, Okla. heading
the department OF American citi-
zenship. and Mrs. John d. Sheer

Ballot Casters Against
Candidates and 'For'
None, 1t Seems
Especial to The Herald)

AUSTIN June 13.-More votes
are going to be cast against, and
fewer are pledged to be cast for spe-
cifIc candidates than ever before
~ this stage Of a state campaign.
This was the political analysis o.
viii c. Edwards. former Denton
publisher and former Hearst editor,
made here. Mr.. Edwards was here
with a Texas Press Association DEL
eqation on the way TO the corpus
Christi press convention.
Sentiment" he said, is less crys-
tallized than at this date in any
political year within my memory"
The dominating factor now IN
shaping outcome Of the races IS OPP
rosition CT voters TO certain candi-
dates, in his opinion.
They're against candidates" he
added, but many Of the voters
have not yet decided whom they
will be for. It's q strangely confused
and uncertain situation"
Nobody can tell how the COVER
nor's race is coming out, he declar-
ed.
Mr.. Edwards. who failed by only
5000 votes TO be nominated for leu
tenant governor, indicated he has
sworn off politics, SO far as seeking
office is concerned.

SAN BENITO. June i3.-Dr. G.
G.. Delfs was back on the job today
laughing at those who thought the
operation he just underwent in
Houston was a major one. To a
physician, II seems. operations are
nothing to get excited about. Any
body who got the idea that his
operation was serious, he said,
might as well forget it. He is as
clipper, maybe a little more so,
as ever.

a former professional boxer and
crack athlete, side stepped and
gave the man a quick right to
the jaw. Fifteen women on the
car screamed.
Pless again got to his feet and
swung on the officer. Cox
guarded the blow and got head

powerless.
At Fifteenth Street and New

opened the door for Cox and his
prisoner while the other pas
sengers streamed out of the front
of the car.
Cox dragged his fighting, biting

were lodged against the man.

A number of passengers,

Cox has been serving on the

His fighting abilities, both pro-
fessionally and amateur, are well
known. When Dempsey and

careers in Philadelphia by barn
storming in theaters, Cox was
one of the few men in the city
who could stand up against
