SAN FRANCISCO, September IA
Representative F. H. La Guardia, Re-

Interview yesterday that complete
overhauling Of the Federal District

started when Congress reconveneS in

OF Harold Louderback. judge in this
Federal district. A report will be made
to the House in Washington.
Holds Need Is Clear.
"It ought to be clear to the people
Of any city which has witnessed an in
vestigation of a Federal judge that a
change in our Constitution providing
for the appointment and removal OF
Federal judges is absolutely necessary,
said La Guardia. They are appointed
for life with limitations placed on
causes for removal. The machinery pro-
vided for their removal is unwieldly
costly and antiquated and must be
changed to meet actual conditions.
I'VE expect to present to Congress at
its next session constitutional amend
ment which will carry out the necessary
reforms. These will include a fixed
term for district judges, differen,
method of selection and their removal
for unfltness and simplified trials"
La Guardia refused to discuss the
Louderback investigation other than tc

ditions in Judge Louderbacks court and

Points to Court Abuses.
Discussing receiverships and bank
ruptcies, which figured largely in the
Louderback investigation, he declared
1t essential that thorough change be
made in bankruptcy proceedings, the
abuse of which he said was chronic

Case of Last of Robin Hoods
Divides Island.

Bastia, Corsica.-The fate of the
picturesque and romantic honor BAN
dts of Corsica is swinging in the bal
ance as court decision decides the
case of the last of the Robin Hoods,
known as Jean Simon Ettori, who
ranged the island brush for q years
and gave himself up to the authori-
ties in their campaign to cleanse the
island.
All Of Corsica Is divided over the
question, which they claim is one of
honor, involving the right Of native
Corsicans to pursue their feuds and
live the free and adventurous life Of
banditry, according to the code in
which personal honor with a dash of
kindness and gallantry, fiavors their
ways.
Ettori claims he committed only
one crime, and that 81 years ago,
which was demanded on the honor of
his family. Being thus outlawed, Et-
tori accepted the life of beautiful and
primitive hillsides, and for q years
he carried on in the true Robin Hood
style.
Ettori was unsympathetic to the
killers and murderers who rob tav-
erns and poor people indiscriminately
to the bad repute of the island and the
Corsican race.
1t is claimed that Efforts past is
not all filled with gallant exchanges
of booty from rich to poor, nor are

Shows Interesting Objects
From Asia and Africa.

Observation-Disclosures its famous
this season is flocking to an exposi-
tion of the recently discovered geog-
raphy of two continents, Asia and
Africa.
Americans visiting France are go
Ing in large numbers to this exposi-
tion--that of the Citroen-Haardt ex-
petitions, first to cross the Sahara
by motor, first through the heart and
length of Africa and that just re-
turned from making the first wheeled
span Of Asia, through the least
known regions Of the giant continent.
Americans have a special interest in
the new exposition because it includes
a Photographic survey made by the
American representative from the
National Geographic society which
co-operated with the Trans-Asia ex-
pedition.
The spanning Of Asia by motor, ac-
counted the outstanding exploration
of 1892, entered areas never before
traversed by Europeans, covered
many stretches not travelled since
Marco Polo's time, visited places
where wheeled vehicles hitherto were
unknown, and photographed many
regions, peoples and natural objects
which never before had faced a
camera.
Interesting Exhibits.
The exposition is housed in the
vast Palais des Expositions in the
Place de rEurope. 1t is set up in 10
salons or divisions. One displays
complete Mongolian yurt, the mobile
felt home of the nomads of the east
Asiatic plateau, with the implements
these wandering people carry from
place to place, and the richly orna-
mented costume of Mongol princess,
costume models of Kirghiz women,
various other nomad apparel. head
gear, and the exotic jewelry of the
desert tribes.
Archaeological collections contain
many objects first shown in Europe;
medical exhibits bear especially upon
the curious and ancient practices of
Chinese healing; and natural history
collections include plants. insects,
and animal specimens which add new
data to knowledge Of life forms of
the continent where mankind orig
mated.
Of great interest is the ethnograph-
ic salon where is displayed collec-
tion of specimens from Syria, Persia,
Afghanistan, India, Burma, Indo-
China and Turkestan.
By employing motors for the first
time in spanning Asia, the expedi-
ton was able to drive its specially
built tractor-type cars through unex-
plored parts of mountain-furrowed
Afghanistan; into 14,0O0-foot passes
of the Himalayas higher than many
peaks of the Alps, where no wheels
ever before had turned on steep, snow
bound yak trails, across the track
less wastes of the Cobb desert and
through bandit-infested wild western
China. Use Of the cars enabled the
modern equipment, including color
cameras, short-wave radio, sound
recording apparatus and numerous
scientific instruments to portray,
study and collect specimens of all
phases Of the long-hidden wonders
of the mother continent.
