HORTON TALKS
To ROTAR|ANS

An interesting talk describing a
trip taken some months ago through
the northern part of Lower Cali
fornia, was given to the Rotary
club today by Attorney Harry Hor-
ton.
He depicted the difficulties en-
countered in travelling over the
little traversed roads and trails in
an automobile, and the experiences
met by him and a party of other
valley men in seeking for adventure
in that section
The trip started from Mexicali
and followed the trail to San Fe-
lipe. thence across the lower ranges
to the central mountains forming
the backbone of the peninsula,
thence back to MeXicali via the
western trail along Laguna Salada
Humorous incidents added to the
interest of the talk which was
thoroughly enjoyed by the club
members.
Inter-club singing was led by DR..
Warren Fox and Frank Beyschlag.
Bob Hatton acted as chairman of
the day.

MISS PERKINS
DECLARED To
Be RADICAL

PALO ALTO. Aug. .. U.H-Sec-
retary Of Labor Frances Perkins
was characterized today as "a
known radical, although she might
not be aware of it," in an address
by Professor Frederick D. Woeller
of the education department of the
University of California at Los An
geleS. laiE
The remark was made to a meet
ing of the western school for COM
mercial secretaries and trained ex-
ecutiyes at Stanford university.
Secretary Perkins serves the
radicals, whether unknowingly or
knowingly Professor Woeller de-
clared. I'm Los Angeles We have
many reds who should be deport-
ed and against whom adequate de
portation cases have been establish
ed, but we have been unable to get
deportation orders from her office
in spite of many urgent requests. -
LOS ANGELES. Aug. 2. (U.P) -
Americas long refusal to recognize
Russia blocked the deportation of
Communist agitatorS for years,
Frank G. Ellis chief immigration
officer said today in reply to
charge that many reds have es-
capped deportation in Los Angeles
, Ellis defended the immigration
service and the department of labor
against an attack by Frederic P
Woeller of the education depart
ment of the University of Califor-
mia at Los Angeles. Prof. Woeller
alleged in Palo Alto that Secretary
of Labor Frances Perkins was
known radical" and that Los An
geleS authorities had been unable
to get deportation orders from her
office in spite of many urgent re-
quests"
Anarchists and other radical ag
itators of other nationalities than
Russian have been deported, and
deportation orders are now pending
against 20 aliens in the Los An
geles area, he said. Several of the
suspects have not yet been ar

rested, while the others are at
liberty under bond.
Most of our red cases origin
ated here four of five years ago
before the United States recognized
Russia" Ellis said. Most of them
were Russians who required pass
ports before we could deport them.
The state department, before recog-
milton, had no legal machinery by
which we could obtain passports.
AS a result, we had the cases but
couldn't ship them out
With recognition of Russia now
an established fact, he believed
there would be no further diff
ficulty in arranging deportation
proceedings.

NEW DEAL" IS HIT
in ADVERTISEMENT
Brokers Reprint Declaration
of independence Replying
to RebukeS.

Publication of the Declaration of In
dependence in advertising form in yes
terday's Washington newspapers was a
reply to rebukes leveled by the Gov
ernment at those who have opposed
the Fletcher-Rayburn stock exchange
regulation bill
This explanation was given today by
Victor G. Paradise of Frazier Jelke &
Co., members of the New York Stock
Exchange, which paid for publication
of the historic document
4, Paradise said there were two primary
reasons for the decision:
First, because legislative and ad-
ministrative tendencies in Washington
suggest that too few of our elective
representatives are familiar with the
principles enunciated in the Declara-
tion of Independence; and.
Second, because it seems timely to
offer contradiction to the apparent
new deal philosophy that engaging in
business for profit is unlawful; that
criticism of administration policies is
lese majeste, and that all protests
against intolerant legislation are mo-
tivated by greed and selfishness"
Paradise protested that petitioners
against the Fletcher-Rayburn bill from
all sections of the country have been
assailed as propagandists by their rep
reSentativeS in Congress.

PULITZER AWARDS
RULES CHANGED
Novels and Dramas Dealing
With American Life
Given Preference.

BY the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, May 1l.-Three
changes in regulations governing the
annual Pulitzer prize awards in let
tiers and journalism have been made
by the advisory board of the Colum-
bia University School of Journalism,
which this year overruled several OF
the juries' selections. The amended
regulations will be in effect next year.
Two of the changes, interpreted
today as a move back to the spirit
of the original will of the late Joseph
Pulitzer, consist of the addition, in
brackets, of the phrase, preferably
dealing with American life," In the
novel and drama award clauses.
The third is an amendment in
procedure, described today by Dr..
Nicholas Murray Butler, president of
Columbia University, as follows:
Henceforth the jurieS in each
prize field will not be expected to
make recommendations for the award
of any prize. Instead, they will pre-
sent an eligible list of candidates,
with a statement of the reasons why
the particular candidate is thought
worthy of serious consideration.
Lists to Guide Board.
These eligible lists will then guide
the advisory board-the body charged
by the Pulitzer will with the re-
sponsibility of recommending the
names for awards-in making its
definite recommendations to the
trustees of Columbia University.
At the same meeting the board
voted its recommendations for this
years awards.
DR.. Butler said that the regula-
tions we're amended to prevent mis-
understandings on the part of the
public.
The novel and drama clauses, as
amended, read: For the best novel
published during the year by an
American author preferably dealing
with American life), one thousand
dollars $1,000.
For the original American play,
performed in New York, which shall
best represent the educational value
and power of the stage preferably
dealing with American life), one
thousand dollars $1,000"
Pulitzer wrote in the original will
that the novel prize should go to the
American novel published during the
year which shall best present the
whole atmosphere of American life
and the highest standard of Ameri-
can manners and manhood; but the
part relating to American life" and
American manners and manhood"
was dropped from the clause by vote
of the advisory board, in 1881.
Two Exceptions Foreign.
However, only twice in the 16 years
the fiction prize has been awarded
has it gone to novels with foreign
locale.
These were Thornton Wilder's
Bridge of San Luis Rey," the prize
novel of 1923, and Pearl Bucks The
Good Earth" which won the award
in 1882.
The Wilder novel depicted a catas-
trophe in Lima, Peru, two centuries
ago. The Good Earth" was the story
of a Chinese peasant.
The play award clause never be-
fore has contained a specific state
ment that the play preferably should
deal with American life, but merely
has specified American play"
A part of the original play clause
mentioned good morals. good taste
and good manners" but this part
was dropped in 1923.
