BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press
The Supreme Court declined today
to reconsider its recent refusal to pass
ON the constitutionality Of the under
standing clause" In the Louisiana con-
stitution, challenged by Antoine M.
Trudeau, colored, Of New Orleans.
Declaring 1t was impossible to have
the Louisiana State Courts pass on the
question, Trudeau asserted it was of
great Importance to the Negro race in
Southern States, which have similar
provisions for the Federal Courts to
assume jurisdiction.
He wanted 1t TO determine whether
the provision requiring applicants for
registration as voters to explain Sec
tions OF the State or Federal Consti-
tuition to the satisfaction Of the regis
trar was valid.
Trudeau contended many colored
persons were illegally being deprived
Of their right to vote as result OF
the enforcement Of the clause.

DES MONIES. Iowa. November g.
Death, violence and destruction Of prop

farm strike today.
Nebraska farmer was killed near
Dakota City, Nebr, last night when
speeding automobile crashed into a
group Of pickets clustered around q
parked truck Five were injured.
Eight carloads Of live stock were
raided by pickets near Lawton, Iowa.
and the stock turned loose after the
train had been halted by a huge pile
OF railroad ties on the tracks.
Picketing f1ared anew in Wisconsin.
Forty thousand pounds Of milk were
dumped. Telephone wires were cut.
Pickets and anti-picketing forces are
massed at the Plattsmouth, Nebr.,
Bridge, over the Missouri River, ready
to clash. Gov. Herring Of Iowa an
nounced the State was ready "to step
in" If county peace officers were unable
to handle the situation.
The death Of Frank Fletcher Of
Homer, Nebr., brought to two the fatali-
ties since the national farm embargo
was declared more than two weeks ago.
The other fatality occurred recently in
Wisconsin.
Fletcher died before emergency treat
ment could be administered. The In

Blockade Haits Train.
Sheep and cattle wandered the streets
OF Lawton after a crowd Of more than
200 pickets broke into a Chicago a.
Northwestern live stock train. The
pickets had trailed the train, bound for
Sioux City market from Pierson, finally
halting It at the Lawton Depot with
track blockade.
Federal officials said they were with
out authority to act In the case because
the incident affected an intrastate.
rather than Interstate, shipment.
The situation around Plattsmouth,
Glenwood, Council Bluffs and Omaha
was tense as embargo supporters and
anti-picketing proponents awaited de-
velopments. An appeal from Sheriff
w. A. De Moss of Mills County, Iowa,
to call out militia to keep highways
clear brought refusal from Gov. Herring.
Later, after receiving reports Of ex-
pected disturbances and the train raid
ing at Lawton, the chief executive IN
dicated that troops would be made
available II peace offers could not han
die the situation. He said that he had
been informed that most Of the Lawton
mob were radicals from Sioux City.

that the result was great victory for

1t was rather slap at Farley and
machine politics in general as well as
representing revolt against the Tam

Tammany Hall is furious and an in

was expected, would be asked to re-
linquish his leadership, and he antic-

er week. The expectation was that
they would be concluded before the
President left Washington for his
Thanksgiving holiday in Georgia, but
Mr.. Bullitt said that while this was
possible, the business might take long
er. 1t appeared Mr.. Roosevelt was
not satisfied to let the matter of eco
nomic relations and the question of
the Russian debt to Americans go over
until after formal recognition.
Senator II. D. Hatfield Of West Vir-
ginia, one of the few Republican SEN
ators who has been bold enough to at
tack the MIRA, also has come out
strongly against the recognition of
Soviet Russia, but rather ridiculously
he bases his objection mainly on the
ground that the Russian Communists
are atheists. Says Mr.. Hatfield:
This great nation which proclaims
to the world it's belief in Supreme
Being, In the imperishable motto of
fits coins, in the messages and state
papers of its Presidents. other public
documents, the acts of congress and
the oaths Of its officers, now admits to
its household the apostles Of another
religion-for Leninism is a religion
that says: There is no GodP
"Yet, 1 do not believe the American
people-Jew or Gentile-are ready to
forsake the religion of their forefa-
theirs. To hold otherwise is to hold
that our government is founded upon
a myth"
ator becomes more rational. saying:
as our trade with Russia to be
financed by the American government?
If so, what are they going to pay us
with? Are they to pay us in goods?
Then, that means displacement of so
many Americans from present and
future jobs. Are they to pay us with
money obtained from exports to other
nations? If so, then they displace by
so much our exports that formerly
went into these markets.
at would appear that after lending
SZS,OOU,OUU,OOO or Americas money TO
public and private borrowers in for
eign lands. and being confronted with
defaults on the greater part Of these
immense sums, that we had learned
our lesson. If private creditors will
not lend to Russia. is 1t any better
risk to the government of the United
States?"
Mr.. Hatfield's puzzlement as to how
Americans can hope to profit tinan-
cially by the resumption Of trade re-
lations with Russia is shared by many
economists and business men, as well
as some high officials in Washington.
There is sure to be fight over it in
the senate when that body takes up
the confirmation Of the ambassador to
Moscow whom President Roosevelt
will appoint.

1 than necessary-having voted for
prohibition repeal, the Eighteenth
amendment Is knocked out Of the
Constitution. The dry regime comes
to an end on December 8, when the
thirty-sixth state convention, that OF
Maine. meets to ratify the action of
the voters. The latest states to go on
record for repeal were Ohio, Pennsyl-
vania, Utah and Kentucky. On the
same day North and South Carolina
rejected the repeal amendment, being
the first commonwealth to go dry.
This result was ascribed to the fact
that the prohibitionists made a lively
campaign. while the repealists were
inactive. The vote of Utah was some
what Of surprise, for the Mormon
church had urged all its members to
vote for retention of the Eighteenth
amendment. Obviously, many of them
disregarded this monition.
In the larger cities the restaurants.
bars and drug stores are not waiting
for the formal end Of prohibition.
Liquor is openly sold in these places.
However, prohibition officials said en-
forcement would continue right up to
the end.
In Washington 1t was said the bone
dry rule In the navy would not be
changed. President Roosevelt took
steps for the adoption of program
to deal with the liquor traffic in per-
manent legislation and also during the
