URGES REVISION OF ALL NATION'S LAWS (By Sonla Lee) I. N. S. Staff Correspondent DES MOINES, Ia., April 13.—Revision of laws to make them understandable to the layman, bringing an awakening of national consciousness and obedience to law, such as resulted from translation of the Bible, was advanced today by Mrs Kate Waller Barrett, national president, American Legion Auxiliary, who is attending the fourth annual convention of the National League of Women voters. "Those who draft our laws overload them with technical terms, to such an extent that they are incomprehensible to the layman, who is expected to observe them," said Mrs. Barrett. "Three fourths of the laws passed are hazy, and indefinite. They are full of technical loop holes, due alone to the involved phraseology." Mrs. Barrett also scored the indignity of America's lower courts and somnolent judges. The big question before the league today is whether the organization should be bi-partisan or non-partisan. Mrs. Park, president, insists that the organization is non-partisan. Mrs. Emily Newell Blair, vice chairman of the National Democratic committee, is equally insistent that CLARA DOWN SOUTH (By International News Service) LOS ANGELES, April 13.—Chief of Police Louis D. Oaks was awaiting word today from Guatemala, Central America, verifying a report he had from there last night that Clara Phillips, hammer murdress, who escaped from the county jail last December, was under surveillance in the southern city. The message received by Chief Oaks was signed by "Sharp" and asked a minute description of the "hammer slayer." Chief Oaks explained the message as being from some official in Guatemala who had seen a woman that resembled Mrs. Phillips and wanted to make sure of the identification before taking decisive action. PURSUE DE VALERA (By International News Service) DUBLIN, April 13.—Eamonn De Valera, leader of the Irish republicans, was still at large today, but Free State troops were reported hot on his trail in the mountains on the northern border of Tipperary-co. Many irregular prisoners were caught in a roundup in the Sligo mountains. The league must become a training school for women in politics. Lord Robert Cecil is the chief attraction today. He speaks tonight on the league question FORCE BOOTHING TO DISGORGE By W. H. ATTN (I. N. S. Staff Correspondent) WASHINGTON.

H. ATKINS (L. N. B. Staff Correspondent) WASHINGTON, April 13.—The government today decided to launch a campaign to force illicit whiskey dealers to disgorge millions alleged to be due in taxes. Internal revenue collectors, co-operating with prohibition authorities, have been ordered to dig into the records to compel payment. Revenue experts estimated today there are probably 50,000 wealthy bootleggers liable for tax payments and penalties for defaulting. The new drive grows out of sensational disclosures of a ring of Georgia bootleggers, reported to have annexed fortunes within two years. Bank accounts and other records that show the extent of operations have been opened to government experts. The evidence gathered in this case is being followed up in a score of states at this time by revenue collectors, for it developed that the Georgia "ring" of whiskey dealers was affiliated with other rings in almost every important "wet" stronghold. Some administration officials estimated today that last year probably not less than 100,000,000 gallons of whiskey was sold illegitly. This estimate took in account the enormous increases in sales of corn and other moonshine liquor. Little has been done to check the flow of whiskey from the corn districts. Officials cited that the revenue law imposes a tax of $6.40 a gallon on whiskey reld. The penalties for non-payment are more than double that sum. Records taken off ships in the smuggling fleet operating off the Atlantic coast also are considered valuable. Some estimates are that in those cases alone where coclusive proof exists the treasury may be enriched by upward of $25,000,000 during the current year. Sees No Menace in Mohammedan Revival (By Louise Bryant) (By International News Service) GARDONE, Riviera, Italy, April 13.—There is no menace in the great Mohammedan revival which has sprung to life in the Near East under Mustapha Kemal Pasha, in the opinion of Gabrielle D'Annunzio, poet-warrior and former dictator of Plume. He made this statement to me today as we walked in the garden of his beautiful villa. "The revival in the east will not destroy western civilization, but it may even save it," exclaimed D'Annunzio emphatically. This extraordinary man of literature, war and romance, is a great admirer of the Turks Recently the Turkish national assembly conferred upon him the rank of "Pasha" which is equivalent to the rank of general in the Turkish army. D'Annunzio is at work upon a book to be called "The Renaissance of Islam," which will go so far as to reinterpret parts of the Koran—the Mohammedan Bible. D'Annunzio said he was prepared to aid the Kemalists with any means in his power. Late in the summer he intends to fly to Constantinople to inspect and perhaps help train Turkish troops. In order to keep in closest possible touch with the Angora, D'Annunzio is having a private wireless plant constructed upon the grounds of his home.

S. in March were valued at $350,000,000 compared with $329,979,817 for the same month of last year, the commerce department announced today.

KIWANIAN SERMON ON "GOLDEN RULE" The members of the Kiwania Club with their ladies will worship in a body with the congregation of the White Temple Sunday evening. All over the United States, Kiwanis Clubs will observe April 15th to 22nd as Courtesay week, which will be inaugurated with a church service in each community. The local Kiwanis Club has requested Rev. J. A. Gelsinger, the pastor of the White Temple, who is a Kiwanian, to conduct this service in the interest of this campaign and to preach on "The Golden Rule." The White Temple service will be given over this Sunday evening to this end. One hundred and fifty seats will be set aside for these guests. The ushers will be Kiwanians in the membership of the White Temple. Eugene Durfee, a Kiwanian, will sing. Other special musical features will be singing of a Kiwanian song, a cornet solo by Mr. Bert Steelhead and a number by the male chorus of the White Temple. A souvenir will be given each Kiwanian attending; also each lady will be remembered. Dr. Gelsinger will speak upon: "What the Golden Rule Is Doing in America." JOHN D. GOES HOME (By International News Service) ORMOND BEACH, Fla., April 13.—Friday the 13th means nothing to John D. Rockefeller, who was enroute to his summer home at Pocantico Hills, N. Y.
