Rush Made from Oklahoma Refomatory During

WOMEN, CHILDREN

Veteran Guard Is Shot to Death-Feminine War;
 den in Pursuit

GRANITE, Oklahoma, Feb. 18.- Eighteen desperate convicts are at large in the Southwest after a wholesale break from the State Re- formatory in which women and children were used as shields.
 One guard was shot to death.
 Back in their cells are 13 other convicts who joined the Sunday dash for liberty while Mrs. George Waters, the nations only femi- nine warden of a male prison, summed praise for her heroism and sought the source of pistols smuggled to the leaders of the break
 Turnkeys Locked in Cell
 The ringleaders poked a pistol against the ribs of a trusty, serv- ing as inside turnkey, got all his keys and then rounded up all oth- CT turnkeys, including day sergeant, Walter Ford. and locked them in a cell. The convicts then rushed up- stairs to the visitors room, where 20 visitors, mostly women and chil- dren were congregated and herded them out to keep the guards from shooting them.
 Rush to Gates
 The convicts rushed down the corridors towards the front door. One convict grabbed a shotgun from the guards wall rack and shot Peter Jones, veteran tower guard. The convicts then rushed to the gates, forced them open and quickly got outside the walls.
 Warden Waters raced from her home, outside the walls, and or dered the guards to shoot but the shots were at first ineffective as the guards did not want to kill the captives of the convicts.
 Opens Fire
 Deputy Warden M. Gallon, op- ened fire from the flank and wounded and dropped eight con- victs. Another convict was halted and a tenth taken nearby by a civilian.
 Twenty-one who had swarmed out of the gates, got into parked autos and sped away or stopped drivers of autos on the highway facing the reformatory, and com manded them to drive them away. Three convicts in an auto were recaptured when a tire blew out.

PATRONAGE IS DISCUSSED AT
 WHITE HOUSE
House Democrats Garry Is. sue to President
 Fears of Blow-off

WASHINGTON, Feb. 18.- New and unwelcomed evidences of dis sension in their own ranks arose last Saturday to worry the Demo- crats on Capitol Hill, particularly in the House. Although they were not willing to let their names be used in connection with their re- marks, several House members ex- pressed fears of a blow-off soon unless greater harmony is attained between House members on one side and Administration officials on the other side.
 Tco Many Republicans
 Five House members visited the White House to protest that too many Republicans and too few Democrats have jobs under the Democratic administration.
 The House members talked with the President for more than an hour, and the upshot of the mat ter was the calling of new Demo- cratic caucus for next Thursday night and talk over the patronage situation. It is learned that a list of Republicans who have been given jobs in preference to the Democrats will be made up by that time.
 It is reported the President made no definite promise as to what he will do with the list when pre- sented.
 Matters other than patronage were also discussed with the Presi- dent.

Press, Washington
 The Senate's World Court flip flop has provided an economies minded national capital with an interlude of many strange aspects.
 Why did MT. Roosevelt, at a moment when popular discussion of the court was at low ebb and many domestic issues were press ing, suggest that ratification be put at the head of the calendar of the new Congress?
 What was the real significance of the many mysterious comings and goings among Senators and other high officials while the de- bate was in progress?
 What was it, basicly, that turned what appeared certain court vic- tory into a stunning defeat?
 Now that the protocol is reject ed, what happens?
 These are a few of the ques- tions which even members of the Senate are asking one another. The whole proceeding was so replete with surprises that all Washington is wondering and whispering.

AUTHORITY OF CONGRESS HELD

High Court Divides 5 to 4
 with Chief Justice Leading Majority
M'REYNOLDS DECLARES CONSTITUTION IS GONE
Obligation to Pay in Gold Com Swept Away by
 Supreme Verdict

WASHINGTOlS, Tel. ls.- Dividing five to four the Stu preme Court in effect swept away any Government or pri- vate obligation to pay gold bonds in gold in an opinion handed down today.
 Chief Justice Charles Evans Hughes in delivering the ma joIity cpiniCn said Congress must be free to deal as it saw fit with matters which would effect currency and the court must take into account cur rert economic conditions even in ruling on contracts.
 Dissenting with three others of his colleagues, Jus tice McReynolds said "the Constitution is gone" His view was that it could not he disclosed at this time what would be the effect "of what has been done here this day.
 Denied Right to Sue
 While invalidating the law saying Gov nment obliga- tions need not be paid in gold, the. court simultaneously de- nied holders of Federal bonds the right to sue for redress in court claims. This right also is denied holders of old gold certificates who sought S1.69 for each dollar in their certificates.
 The Government won all along the line with regard to private bonds and State and municipal gold contracts. Jus tice McReynolds pointed out the solemn promise the Gov ernment made in the sale of it's bond s that purchasers would receive pay m en in gold.
 Administration Overjoyed
 President Roosevelt and Adminis- tration leaders were overjoyed at the decision and the President de- cided no legislative or administra- tive action was required
 We are not concerned with the consequences" said the court de- eisicn, -'in the sense that conse- qences. however, serious may be an excuse for invasion of constitutions ality. We are concerned with tho constitutional power of Congress over the monetary system of this country and it's attempted frustra- ton. Exercising that power Con gress has undertaken to establish uniform currency and parity be- tween kinds of currency and to make that currency dollar for dol lar legal tender for payments of debts.
 Gives Congress Authority
 In the light of abundant ex- perience, Congress is entitled to choose such uniform monetary sys- tenn and to reject the dual system with respect to all obligations with in the range of exercising it's con- stitutionai authority"
 The courts position on private bonds applies as well to bonds is- sued by States and municipalities.
 Regarding gold certificates, Chief Justice Hughes specified the court of climax had no jurisdiction.
 In the minority with Associate Justice McReynolds were Vande- yanter, Sutherland and Butler.

Hint of Political Dirty Work ut Senatorial Cross Roads
 FOUOlus World Court Defeat

cal finessing had been going on somewhere. He may have been thinking a great deal more than he said.
 There were hard feelings too, about the continued presence dur ing the debate of a former sena- tor, in his day bitter enemy of the court.
 Altogether. the debate and Its denouement left the Senate in a particular bad state of nerves.
 NOT TIED TO NEW DEAL
 The defeat of the Court appar- ently meant little in relation to the fortunes of the new deal' generally, with which it had no direct connection The protocol was negotiated by Republican of ficeholders. and three Republican Presidents had urged it's ratifica- ton.
 Time alone can tell, however, what indirect effect the battle may have on new deal" morale. The President is asking the Senate ma jority to team up behind certain highly important domestic policies. Division, recrimination and sus- picion, for whatever unrelated req son, do not ordinarily make for teamwork.
 It is because of this indirect im- plication that Washington is ask ing why the President, with his usually astute sense of political and psychological reactions, took the risk of bringing into the picture such dynamite-laden issue as the world court right at the opening of the session.
