already been started in the senate
finance committee, and the house ways
and means committee has postponed
consideration of the bonus bill to work
on the security plan. This is being
done at the Presidents behest. The
plan provides:
Flexible, but compulsory unemploy-
ment insurance under federalstate
system restricted to workers and
financed by per cent tax on pay
rolls after January l, 1888. The gov
eminent will aid in bearing administra-
ton costs, and the treasury will ham
die the fund. Ninety per cent of the
pay roll tax Is to be refunded to en-
ployers who contributed to state un-
employment plans maximum Of SIS
a week Of compensation to begin four
weeks after the worker loses his job
and to last for not more than sixteen
weeks is contemplated.
The second part of the plan pro-
vides for old-age pensions. The gov
eminent is to cooperate with the
states and pay maximum of $50 a
month to persons over sixty-fve. The
national government Is also to aid
states in formulating plan for per-
sons under sixty-tive which will be
financed Jointly by employer and en-
ployee through pay roll tax; the
funds to be handled by the federal
government; the amount of pensions
to be a percentage of the employees
wage; with non-manual employees re-
ceIving more than $3.50 month to be
exempt from the plan.
The third section of the scheme pro-
vides for appropriations to give bet
ter facilities to caring for mothers,
and dependent and crippled children,
and the fourth section would furnish
larger appropriations for public health
aid, investigation and research.
Cost of the entire program to the
federal government will be $1OO,OOO,-
600 next year and $200,O00.0O0 in sue
ceeding years. The cost to the states
will be $75,OOO,OOO next year and $780,
100000 in succeeding years. Some idea
of the size of the plan may be gained
from the report Of the Presidents cab
met which said reserves for old-age
pensions must be maintained after
some years at $15,25O.OO0,OOO.
0NE of the most spectacular prison
~ breaks in history was effected
when four convicts in the San Quentin
(Calif.) state prison overpowered two
guards, slugged the warden uncon-
scious, kidnapped six hostages including
four members of the state prison board,
and fed in state owned automobile.
The felons were captured two hours
later "a miles from the prison after
a running gun fight with prison guards
and posses. One of the convicts was
wounded, as were two of the hostages.
Trouble has been expected at San
Quentin. where some 5000 prisoners
are housed In space designed for only
5000. Unrest has been evident for
some time. especially since 1t became
necessary to put more than one man
in each cell. Only 100 guards have
been regularly emploved.

the most determined movement yet
made to put the United States into the
court.
Other senators, 1t Is said, were
ready to follow Johnson's lead, par
ticularly Senator Borah, long time foe
of the court.
Johnson supported his opening at
tack on the court by offering four en-
barrassing reservations to the resolu-
ton of ratification:
1. Prohibit the court from entertain
ing jurisdication on any question re-
lating wholly or in part to its Internal
affairs.
2. Permit recourse to the court only
by agreement through general or spe-
cial treaties between the parties In
dispute.
8. Prohibit the court and the league
of nations from trying to assume jur-
isdiction on any question which de-
ponds upon or relates to the Monroe
Doctrine.
A. Declare the United States, by
Joining the court, assumes no obliga-
tons.
Through Johnson's action, these
questions must be voted upon before
a final vote can be reached on the
resolution Of adherence.
Although the question has been side
tracked for time, 1t will be brought
up soon, It is said, and Senator Rob-
inson, Democratic leader, has stated
that he was confident of ratification
when the final test comes.

THE third phase Of testimony pre-
l. sented by the state in the trial of
Bruno Richard Hauptmann, charged
with the murder Of Col. Charles A.
Lindbergh's son, has begun. Eight
handwriting experts called by the pros
ecution have completed their testi-
mony, each declaring that in his opin-
ion, the dour ex-carpenter was author
Of the ransom notes, and the state now
moves on to the story Of finding the
tiny corpse in a shallow grave in the
woods near Hopewell, N. j., two
months and twelve days after the kid
mapping on the night Of March l, 1882.
Following this, the story of how Haupt-
mann was captured last September
through Identification Of one Of the
gold certificates which made up the
ransom, will be told.
Eight men, who have qualified with
the court as experts, have declared
that Hauptmann penned the ransom
notes. Photographic engagements of
the notes and of Hauptmann's admitted
writings have been shown in the court,
and each popularity Of each character
has been carefully gone over.
Defense lawyers have fought each
scrap Of testimony bit by bit. An at
tempt has been made to show that
some one might have forged Haupt-
mann's handwriting in an effort to
throw suspicion on him, but this has
been vigorously refuted by witnesses
who have been firm in their assertions
that only the prisoner could have been
the author.
An attempt to forestall efforts Of the
defense to pin the crime on Isador
Fisch, furrier, who died in Germany, is
being made by New Jersey officials.
Pinkus Fisch, brother of Isador, his
wife, Czerna; his sister, Hannah, and
Fisch's nurse, Mime Steingnitz, have
been brought from Germany to testify.
Pinkus has asserted his belief that his
brother Is not guilty.
THE Saar win be returned to Ger
4 many on March /, a special COM
mittee Of the League of Nations has
decided. The proposal win be submit
ted to Berlin at once. Opposition to
this proposal is expected. since the
reich originally demanded the basins
return formally on or before Febru-
airy is.
Another difficulty arises over
Frances demand that Article AZ of the
Versailles treaty establishing a demili-
tarized zone should be applied to the
Saarland. This would ban Nazi storm
troops and Brown Shirts from the ter
ritory after its return. Compliance of
this demand would be an admission
from Germany that the Brown Shirts
are semi-military organization, and
this Berlin has long denied in comput-
ing her military strength.
Germany won an overwhelming vic
tory in the plebiscite held to determine
the wishes Of the inhabitants of the
rich Saar basin as to the future status
Of that territory. The complete vote
as announced by the commission was !:

confidence of the business structure.
1t seems Illogical even to suppose that
