Race Season Opens

On the eve of the opening of
spring racing in the East at
Bowie, immigration officials
have set ban on the employ
meht of aliens at the Maryland
track.
Yesterday, two inspectors
quizzed 400 applicants for jobs at
the track, and rejected 10 Cana.
disns. There are about 10 Cana.
oians already employed at the
track, but they will retain their
Jobs because local men cannot do
their work, it is said.
A similar inspection was made
last year, the first in five or six
years, but it was not made until
after the racing season had be-
gun and it caused some incon-
venience. 1t was decided to elm
mate all aliens from the appli-
can't list this year before the
running starts.
Many Canadians voluntarily
left the country last year after
the inspection, it is said.

FATAL LECATE
 SAFE IN TEXAS
Escorted to Laredo on Spe- cial Train By Mexican
 Soldiers

Laredo, Texas, Oct 6.-UP)- The most Rev Leopoldo Ruiz Y Flores, papal legate to Mexico or dered deported by the government, entered the United States here to- day on a special train which had been guarded by 30 Mexican sol- diers.
 A number of Laredo priests and United States border officials met the legate. He was required to pay an $8 head tax, and received permission to remain in the coun- try six months.
 He said he had been treated courteously by government agents en route to the border from Mexico City.
 Regarding the controversy with the Mexican government, the le- gate said:
 with people knowing the con- tents of the papal encyclical, the contents of President Rodriguez's reply and my own protest, leave them to form their own judgment"
 The legate said he would re- main in Laredo several days, then possibly go to San Antonio after informing the Pope of his arrival here.
 He was accompanied by Carlos Corte, of Mexico City who planned to return to the Mexican capital within a few days.
 All of the legates' expenses on the trip from Mexico City were paid by the Mexican government.
 Mexico City, Oct 6.-(UP)- Strict enforcement of Mexico's anti religious laws was evident to-day.
 Senora Juana Herandez was ar rested on charges of permitting celebration of mass in her resi- dence. Several worshippers were reported to have fled and escaped from her home just before the po- lice arrived.
 New recommendations for re- striction of the church were for warded to the senate from the of the state of Tabasco. No churches are now open there where the, first anti-religious laws were enacted.

 Chicago, Oct 6-(UP)-States Attorney John A. Swanson acted with dramatic swiftness, today 10 return samuel and Martin J. lnsuli from refuges on two continents to face criminal charges in the col lapse of their vast utility interests.
 One of Swanson's aids traveled by airpIane to Toronto, Canada. and hurried on to the retreat Of Martin Insult at Orillia, Ont, 80 miles to the north.
 Swanson himself led a fight to obtain funds to start immediate formal extradition proceedings to assure the turn of Samuel Insull from Paris.
 Assistant States Attorney John Hampton had two alternatives to present to the utilities magnate.
 The first was voluntary return to Chicago to face prosecution on lar ceny and embezzlement charges Tho second was arrest and impris- onment in a Canadian jail pending outcome of formal extradition hearings.
 Swanson was informed Canadian authorities assured Hampton they would take Insult into custody im- mediately if he did not waive extra dition.
 Meanwhile receivers for Middle West Utilities Co.,, top holding cor poration of the Insult structure. said they would apply to the Re- construction Finance Corporation for a $21,000,000 loan. They be- lievcd this would enable them to regain control of the $600,000,000 National Electric Power Co. sub sidiary in danger of passing from the utility to New York banks which hold $21 100000 in loans.
 The receivers said they would ask that the loan be granted to the Irving Trust Co, of New York. an- cilIlry receiver for the power com- pany. This, they said, would avoid an objection raised by the R. F. c. that 1t is not empowered to make loans to utilities.

Not only in official life but in private life he should be clean and pure an inspiration to the young people who are growing up to look to him as an example.
 "He never, Mgr Chidwick said of McCue", permitted temptation to steal into his heart when success came or to make his wife an ob- the souls of his children by for getting his home. He was a bigger man than any position he ever held. He never sought to enrich himself by pilfering the public treasury. He died almost as poor as the day he took office. No one can accuse him of asking any gratuity for a favor."
 The priests words that day be- came an unofficial standard of con- duct for public officials, especially those of the Catholic faith.

The socialist candidate was to discuss proposals of his party to- ward unemployment relief in a speech before the California League of Women Voters at noon. Mills was scheduled to address repub- lican voters tonight.
 Thomas attacked the sincerity of the campaign speeches of Pres ident Hoover and Franklin D.. Roosevelt In a speech at Oakland last night.
 President Hoover's Iowa speech Is an able and sometimes eloquent defense of the capitalist position. :" Thomas said In charging that the capitalistic system was "hopeless- ly befuddied."
 Tt calls for an equally sincere and comprehensive statement by the amiable but vague MT Roose- welt as to how his brand of capi- talism differs from tho presidents.
 Prom n political angle, MT Hooyer's worst faults were that in 1926 he took in the name of his economic system and his party credit for n prosperity he now nd. mits was unsound, and that as late ns 1928 he knew nothing of the inevitable aftermath of the war. which he had wholeheartedIy sup. ported and now condemns as the source Of our woes"

WAKE UP YOUR
 LIVER bILE- WITHOUT CAL0MEL
And You'll Jump Out of Bed in
 the Morning Karin to Go

If you feel sour and sunk and the world looks punk. don't swallow a lot of salts, mineral water. oil, laxative candy or chewing gum and expect them to make you suddenly sweet and buoyant and full of sunshine.
 For they can't do 1t. They only move tho bowels and mere movement doesn't get at the cause. The reason for your down-and-out feeling is your liver. It should pour out two pounds of liquid bile into your bowels daily.
 If this bile is not flowing freely, your food doesn't digest. It just decays in the bowels. Gas bloats up your stomach. You have a thick, bad taste and your breath is foul, skin often breaks out in blemishes. Your head aches and you feel down and out. Your whole system is poisoned.
 It takes those good, old CAMPERS LITTLE LIVER PILLS to get these two pounds of bile flowing freely and make you feel "up and up." They contain wonderful. harmless, gentle vegetable extracts. amazing when 1t comes to making the bile flow freely.
 But don ask for liver pills. Ask for Carter's Little Liver Pills. Look for the name Carter's Little Liver Pills on the red label. Resent . substitute. 25c at all stores. c 1881 c. M. Go.

 Yesterday they pieced together the scraps of a' note found in the wastebasket in her room. It said, in part:
 Dear Precious: have the fun nies, am feeling very bad, as if l am going to be- kidnapped or killed. I can't explain it. I'm less cheery. I feel very bad. I had doctor in to see me and he thinks I have double pneumonia. am supposed to so to the hospital. It looks like the promised job may be thrown to the winds. I feel half crazy. will do something awful"

 DeWolfe said, according to po- lice, that Miss Jennison had writ ten her mother a letter saying she planned to commit suicide. They aslo quoted the editor as saying he had traced the revolver found in the girls hand to a Worcester store, where she had purchased it.
