CAMERON RAPs MEASURE

On completion Of oral argument be-
fore the state supreme court Friday.
the case challenging the constitutions
atty Of the initiated law providing
for a reduction in salaries Of state
officials and employees was taken un-
der advisement.
The action was brought against the
state auditing board which. was de-
Tended by B. F. Spaulding. Fargo,
who appeared in behalf of the North
Dakota taxpayers association, which
sponsored the initiated law.
Scott Cameron, Bismarck, attor-
ney for the plaintiff, contended the
act violates several sections Of the
state constitution.
He said no attempt Is made In the
act to point to whom 1t applies ex-
cept by the general classification into
which the individuals may fall.
Sponsors Of the act, he declared,
are attempting to apply an arbitrary
rule or scale of salary for public en-
ployees. and have attempted an In
novation in legislation.
He urged that the law be declared
unconstitutional so that 1.-The legisla-
ture might pass suitable legislation
on the subject"
Spalding. denying that the act vio-
lates the state constitution, cited
many authorities.
He said 1t may be possible that the
measure does not cover every office
which it was intended should be COW
cred, but that this does not initiate
against its effecting the salaries Of
those who are included.
The case Is an appeal from the
order Of Judge r. @. Mcfarland In
Burleigh county district court. who
ordered that the alternative writ OF
mandamus against the auditing
hoard be uuaSned last December l6.

Washington, Jan. l3.-@-The
house Friday passed the Philippine
Independence bill over the veto Of
president Hoover. The senate has yet
to act.
The vote was 274 to 81.
A two-thirds majority was neces-
sary.
Senate prospects are uncertain, but
In at least some informed admins
tratton quarters there Is fear that the
senate will likewise vote against the
presidents position as recorded in q
singing veto message that had been
read to the house but an hour Or 80
before It voted.
In the house vote, 90 Republicans,

Sees Grave Danger
Asserting the measure invited
grave dangers Of foreign invasion
and war;" the president contended In
q lengthy message that its terms
would lead to the economic downfall
of the islands. The United States, he
said, would be given the responsibility
without authority for maintaining or
der Tin degenerating social and eco
nomic situation"
The measure provides for the
creation Of an intermediate gov
eminent after about two years, II ap-
proved by the Filipino people. A 10.
year period Of economic and political
weaving would follow. during which
American authority would be cur
tailed. Complete independence would
be established in the eleventh year,
Pointing to Z chaotic" situation in
the Orient, and to the immense
neighbor populations" near the
islands. the chief executive suggested
that there be no immediate curtail-
ment Of American power and that the
plebiscite Of freedom 'be taken Is or
20 years hence"
Il Path 70 Danger
This legislation" the president
said. puts both our people and the
Philippine people not on the road to
liberty and safety. which we desire.
but on the path leading to new ana
enlarged dangers to liberty and free
dom ITSELF"
Some Of the arguments given by
Hoover for disapproving the bill fol-
low:
The Philippines economically arr
absolutely dependent upon their IA
vored trade with the United States"
and the period during which this
would be whitfield down and finally
shut off Is too short. too violent"
Without favored entrance to Amer
lean markets many Philippine indus
tries could not compete with nearby
lower costs and standards Of living,
leading eventually to q flight Of cap
ital. diminishign tax revenue and IN
unbalanced budget.
American agriculture would be CIV
en- mo protection Of any kind" during
the first two years, and during the
following five would have mo effec-
tive protection"
The civil authority Of the United
States In the islands would be brought
ito . point Of practical impotence"
but with the American flag still flying
would be faced with the likelihood Of
having to employ military measures
to maintain order"

Curecina's Murder
 Unsolved Mystery
Waterbury Men Once Questioned in Death of Hartford RaCketeer

The murder of Joseph Curecina, alleged racketeer of Hartford, whose body was found in garage in the rear of his home on March 12. 1892, remains an unsolved mys- tery, according to statement made yesterday by Deputy Coroner Harrison D. Schofield of Hartford,
 who filed his finding yesterday in Hartford.
 Curecina. well-known in Water bury, Torrington and New Haven,
 was killed by two unknown men who waylaid him in his garage early on the morning of March 18th. His body was found by his wife several hours later. A stilleto and gun had been used with rare viciousness. Some papers and his pocketbook which had been hur- riedly removed from his pockets were later found on Summit street, near Trinity college, Hartford.
 The finding contained record of testimony given by County Detec- tive Edward J. Hickey, attached to States Attorney Hugh Alcorn's office, Developments in the case are of interest to Captain William F. Keegah and members of the de- tective bureau owing to the fact that County Detective Hickey came to this city the day following the crime and questioned several Wa terbury men, who were considered as possible suspects for several days. The testimony of Mr Hickey brings out q number of new fea- lures, revealing for the first time, tho fact that Curecina was linked with gang implicated in the theft and disposition of large number of guns stolen from the Colt plant in Hartford. One of the stolen guns was found by school children short distance from the scene of

SUSPENSION OF LAND TAXES FOR
 THREE YEARS

Lansing, Mich, Jan 24--(UP)-- A three year suspension of land tax sales was proposed today in the first administration measure to be submitted to the legislature. The bill would provide that all proceed. |. ings for the sale of lands this spring be halted and that the sus- pension continue until 1936. It would affect all taxes now delin- qucnt and those for the years 1880, 1031 and 1892.
 Leaders of both parties in the upper chamber predicted early &C., ton on the measure because de- lay must be avoided if 1883 sales are to be stopped. The bill was in- troduced jointly by q republican and democratic senator in m effort to stave off partisan attacks on the measure.
