Tuesday, November 20, 1923 MRS. E. MORTIMER WANTS HEARING (Continued From Page One) ago behind closed doors This was done at the suggestion of her counsel. Judge Wright, in making his request for Mrs. Mortimer's appearance, said her 'name and character had been subjected to a very grave and serious attack." "She is asking the opportunity to refute the accusations made against her and to vindicate her character and good name," said Judge Wright. "A woman's character is a very fragile thing and delicate as the frost upon the morning's window, which a mere breath can dispel and it is gone forever. Yet it is her most priceless treasure. "If the committee was unable to protect her against these attacks, in the very spirit of fair play, I demand she be given a brief opportunity to defend her character in her own behalf." Chairman Reed, Republican of Pennsylvania, recalled that there was nothing reflecting on Mrs. Mortimer's character in the record, but that she would be permitted to take the stand, to answer such questions submitted by her counsel as the committee deemed relevant. Before Mrs. Mortimer appeared, a telegram was read from Congressman Walter F. Lineberger, of California, denying that he had recommended Matthew O'Brien, of San Francisco, as architect for the Livermore, Calif., hospital. His name had not been mentioned in the testimony, but he took exception to a phrase, "the whole California delegation" used by Col. Charles R. Forbes, former director, in citing O'Brien's endorsement. Senator Tasker L. Oddie, Republican of Nevada, member of the committee, submitted a report of his inspection tour of the Twelfth District. He condemned the Palo Alto hospital, urged the immediate construction of hospitals at Livermore and San Fernando and the purchase of a veteran's butt.

This is the ectum that Mr. gone forth from the White House Bearing in mind the sagacious advice of Horace Greeley, President Coolidge has decided to "west" in his search for job title ber. With the convening of congress and the formal opening of the 1924 campaign just over the horizon, the president is planning a careful distribution of patrols throughout the west and mid-west. The last two Coolidge appointments bear out this decision. Professor Senator Frank B. Kellogg, Minnesota, received the call over many aspiring easterners for the ambassadorship to Great Britain. The appointment of Robert Grant, of Denver, as director of the mint, is considered even more significant. Several outstanding positions are waiting to be filled among them three ambassadorships; Italy, Mexico and Turkey. It is expected western men will be fished wherever possible.

In the testimony, but he took exception to a phrase, "the whole California delegation" used by Col. Charles R. Forbes, former director, in citing O'Brien's endorsement. Senator Tasker L. Oddie, Republican of Nevada, member of the committee, submitted a report of his inspection tour of the Twelfth District. He condemned the Palo Alto hospital, urged the immediate construction of hospitals at Livermore and San Fernando and the purchase of a veteran's bureau hospital in Los Angeles. Oddie also condemned the storing of veterans' bureau records in a "firestrap building" in San Francisco. He said the records were in constant danger of destruction. Former congressman Clarence Caughlin, of Wilkesbarre, Pa., appeared before the committee to deny a statement of Congressman Alfred Johnson, of Washington, that disabled soldier named Charles Kasavage had been kidnapped from a Washington hospital. Caughlin said the veteran had been legally removed from Washington because his home was in Pennsylvania. After Reed's decision was announced, Judge Wright left the room with Mrs. Mortimer to prepare a list of questions. He said he would return later with his client.

A small force of men has been working on the placing and bricking in of the boilers the last three weeks. Monday the force was more than doubled. The Stodart Brothers trucking company is hauling in machinery as rapidly as it can be placed. They were given orders today to begin the hauling in of a good supply of rotary mud.

Recall of English representatives from the sub organizations created under the treaty would late France except for her smaller allies on the European continent. The Matin, commenting upon the situation today, said that France and Belgium are in complete unison. Belgium is prepared to support any action France may take to support her demands regarding the re-establishment of allied military control over Germany and the return of the former German crown prince from Holland. According to Belgium and Poland, France has the support of the little entente in southern Europe. France, according to the Matin, reserves the right to take the necessary measures for her own protection regardless of the decision of the ambassadors council. Official circles believe that the solution adopted by the council yesterday to send a strong joint note to Berlin will greatly lessen the tension as it is a concession to England. Up to that time France had been insisting that fresh penalties be inflicted without further note writing. It is understood France and Belgium are preparing an independent protest against the arrest of allied military control officers by the reichswehr in Saxony. Shop Early ATTACKS BALDWIN LONDON, Nov. 20.—While a majority of newspapers interpreted the action of the ambassadors' council in postponing additional penalties for Germany as a victory for England and for Premier Baldwin, the Daily Mail, which up to the present, has been friendly to the premier, today attacked bitterly some of the anti-French utterances in his speech of yesterday. The Daily Mall hinted at the possibility of future war if the quarrel with France is continued. The newspaper accused Baldwin of adopting a tariff policy which is "hesitating and wobbling."

Shop Early COMEBACK STAGED BY MAD MUSICIAN ROME, Nov. 20.—Don Lorenzo Perosi, celebrated maestro of sacred music who, according to eminent specialists and music critics, has been of unstable mind for several years, has returned to public life and in so doing has had a glorious revenge on the critics and doctors. His reappearance was at the cathedral at Farriano, when he conducted a performance of his well-known work, "The Passion of Christ." This he followed with a new work, "The Psalm of David," which was received with frantic delight by the critics and acclaimed by them in glowing terms. Perosi now announces that he composed his new work when he was deemed to have gone completely insane. The critics and doctors are now busy looking for excuses. Their favorite one seems to be that Perosi must have a dual personality. Buy In Anselm UNBREAKABLE GLASS Belgians have invented a glass for tableware that is practically unbreakable.
