AWAIT RULING
UPON REPEAL

LOS ANGELES, July 10. W.P)-
The battle of Southern California
prohibition leaders to invalidate
California's popular vote repeating
the eighteenth amendment was be-
fore the state supreme court today
for a decision.
An appeal was filed late yesteI-
day from a recent decision of Su.
perior Judge Emmet H. Wilson sus-
tanning the legality of the June 81
election; the fight was carried to
the supreme court in behalf of
Richard M. Cannon, son of TIE
acknowledgement dry crusader,
Bishop James Cannon jr., and the
Rev. +. G.. H. Stevens OF Santa
Monica.
The appeal reiterated previous
contentious that election provisions
for a repeal convention violated
both state and federal constitutions.
Permitted by Judge Wilson's lul-
ing to proceed with the canvass of
the election vote, the Los Angeles
county supervisors found that $685.
901 repeal votes were cast as against
1885, retention ballots.
The state supreme court had pre-
viouSly refused to block the elec-
tion.
1T is the contention of our cli-
ents," said Attorney E. Neal Ames
in a statement, that the decision
of Judge Wilson as handed down,
involves greater danger to the con-
stitution of the United States in
that it virtually permits or ap-
proves the amendment of the fed
eral constitution by referendum.
Our clients feel that the ques-
ticn at issue involves serious propo-
sitions of constitutional law which
strike at the very heart of repre-
sentative government, and which,
# allowed to go uncnallenged, will
permit the amendment of the con-
stitution of the United States on
other matters N a similar way.
Our clients believe that the duty
rested upon congress not only to
determine whether the ratification
should be by convention but upon
congress choosing ratification by
convention congress should have de-
termined the method and manner
by which that convention should be
elected and failure to do SO Is fatal
to the whole question of ratifica-
lion to the 21st amendment.

WASHINGTON, July 10 Two
former Republicans in the Roose-
welt cabinet, Secretary of Interior
Ickes and Secretary of Agriculture
Wallace, are wearing down the
sunny disposition of James A. Far
ley, postmaster general chairman
of the Democratic national COM
mittee and chief patronage dis
penser, because they are resisting
pressure to give jobs to good Dem
ocrats.
The genial national chairman
has endeavored to place his per-
sonal representatives in various
government agencies to approve
prospective appointees. It works
where the head of the depart
ment is sympathetic.
In the department of Justice.
William Stanley of Maryland. is
the hiring and firing man. He
works as special assistant to At
torney General Cummings. In the
Reconstruction Finance corpora
ton. Farley has placed trusted
lieutenant, Emil Hurja.
1t is different at the agriculture
and interior departments. Secretary
of Interior Ickes, not interested in
political patronage, listened coolly
when it was suggested that a man
be stationed in the interior de-
partment to pass on appoint
mentS.
The man was sent over anyway.
The atmosphere was too frigid and
the patronage arbiter left after
few days.
Personal matters are now hand
led by E. K. Burlew, Republican
who became a department men,
Der while Hubert Work was sec
retary under Coolidge. Work inher-
tied him from Will Hays, Hard
ing's first postmaster general. Some
| times IckeS designates one of his
personal aides to sit in on pat
ronage discussions just to see that
nothing gets out of control.
| For the agricultural department,
Farley selected Julien N. Friant of
Missouri He was given an office
next door to Secretary Wallace. But
| the door is shut most of the time.
! Wallace was not sympathetic. He
wanted to select his own personnel,
much of it requiring expert train
ing. When the agricultural adjust
ment administration was created,
congress omitted to put it under
civil service and it was expected to
be the job hunters paradise. But
Wallace issued departmental or
Ger requiring all clerical and rou-
| tine help to be filled from the civil
service list.
In filling more important jobs,
department or agriculture men Sc
lect their candidates. The names
go to Friant for approval. He
checks their political endorsement
TO see if they are approved by SEN
atorS, congressman and Democratic
national committeeman from their
states. Sometimes names come
| down without any endorsements
whatever. Many of these have &C
be passed because of the insistenct
upon certain expert qualifications

I'll answer that later" he said.
II am going through with some
Of my plans, anyway, and I am
determined to look after my car
eer."
The so-called dirt" Hutton re-
ferred to apparently was aimed at
Angelus Temple officials. To them
he was a most unpopular figure.
They accused him of "stabbing a
sick woman in the back" by suing
for divorce. To his caustic critics,
the pompous baritone displayed an
attitude of hauteur.
Il" he murmured with dignity
"am tired of being a plaything, a
poodle-dog, an object of ridicule.
am tired of McPhersonism. I
did not marry the temple. I mar
ried Aimee and l have been play
ing just one engagement for a year
and 10 months. Now I am going to
play many engagements, as be-
comes the artist that 1 am"
To those who may not have heard
that he will embark on a stage
career Thursday in Long Beach
theatre, the corpulent chorister
added:
Il am going to sing for a living.
That's my game anyway. My pro-
grams will include my own compo-
sitions and the songs 1 wrote for
Aimee. 1 want the chance to live
my own life"
He was panied when asked if he
would capitalize on his Wife's name.
"I'll get along on my own name"
he said. II had a career of my own
when I married Aimee but I had
to drop it and take orders from
temple officials. You can imagine
how humiliating that was for a
grown man"
Huttons portrayal of himself as
an outraged spouse was derided by
Miss Harriet Jordan, who succeeded
him as temple business manager.
"All I can say" she said, 'is that
it was just likt Dave to stab his
wife in the back the moment he had
her where he wanted her" And with
that she ordered attaches to re-
trieve the expensive limousine that
the $50 pound husband had at his
disposal during his wife's absence.
Furthermore she promised "house
cleaning of persons apparently
friendly to Dave.
THE place has been harboring
spies and enemies of Sister Aimee, y
Miss Jordan said, They will be
fired at once"

PATRONAGE DISPENSING GIVES
LOTS OF TROUBLE TO FARLEY

The quota of such appointees from
New York is growing so large that
Farley may not be able to take care
of his own home state.
Added TO Farley's woes is the
clamor of women. One of his wom-
en- ieUtenants, before leaving for
the west to face job hungry femi-
pine party workers, went to Farley
All he could give her for the mo-
ment was 4 "pacifying message"
And on top of all of this is Presi-
cent Roosevelt's recent announce
ment that new jobs should go first
to regularly qualified civil service
employees who have been dropped
in economy cuts in various bureaus.
