REBELS FAIL TO SEIZE TAMPICO
BY ARTHUR CONSTANTINE
L. N. S. Staff Correspondent)
MEXICO CITY, Jan. 2.—All attempt by rebels under former governor Lopez De Lara, of the state of Tamaulipas, to seize Tampico, Mexico's greatest oil port, failed. It was announced by the war department today.
Lopez De Lara started his movement against the federalals 35 miles west of Tampico. The federal routed the revolutionaries at El Cerro Hacienda.
Lopez De Lara was reported in flight toward the United States boarder.
A division of picked troops will be organized equipped with rifles, airplanes and machine guns acquired from the United States government to control the Tampico oil fields. It will be under personal command of former minister Plutarco Elias Calles.
This army will cooperate with the federal forces under General Eugenio Martinez and those under General Vincente Gonzales. All three armies are to converge upon the rebel stronghold at Vera Cruz.
It is officially confirmed that the Mexican government is seeking purchase of four American built cruisers for use against the rebel war craft in Vera Cruz harbor.

POSTPONE JUDGE BROWN'S HEARING UNTIL JAN 16
(Continued From Page One)
call into question any act done by Judge Brown in the proper discharge of his duties as city recorder. Judge Brown's discretion in any case in which he sat could not be examined.
The principle of the freedom and independence of our courts from any other department of the government was a tradition, said Amos.
It was contempt of court to criticise any act of Judge Brown's on the bench, scurrilous or otherwise.
City Attorney Weisel, who next had the floor, said it was clear to any one that the objections raised by Attorney Amos were well-founded. However, city council was not a court and was not under legal technique. Its members were moved only by their sense of fairness and justice.
Pastor Myers, explaining the stand of himself and the Bible class, said that it was only Monday afternoon that they had been informed of the hearing. He also, he said, objected to a formal hearing when the issue had not been clearly drawn.
Attorney Amos thereupon declared that Myers practically had admitted his, Ames', allegations.
Attorney O. T. Caillor, after refusing to state whom he represented or in what capacity, in spite of Ames' questioning, said that the petitioners were citizens. Judge Brown had been put into office by the council. The duty of the council was to see that the laws were enforced. Otherwise it became itself inefficient.
Callor admitted he had been asked to attend the hearing.
No criminal offense had been committed by Judge Brown, he said. This was not a criminal trial, nor did legal technique have any place in the trial. City council made no pretence of passing on the legal questions or to rule on a demurrier or pleading.
The signers of the petition had danced the council a favor by presenting it.
The point of the petition was that Judge Brown had made mistakes. We all make mistakes, said Amos.

The signers of the petition had dane the council a favor by presenting it.
The point of the petition was that Judge Brown had made mistakes. We all make mistakes, said Callor, but when repeated mistakes are made, it is time to investigate.
Councilman Gates hereupon moved that the objections put forward by Attorney Ames be overruled and the hearing proceeded with. The motion was carried.
Attorney McFadden then got into the fight, declaring that nobody could meet an issue like the one stated in the petition. The nature of Judge Brown's incompetency had not been specified, whether physical, mental or what.
Attorney Callor said that every signer of the petition was sorry Judge Brown was a cripple and Market Reports

to all parties.
Pastor Myers moved that Judge Brown's books be put into other keeping so that the records would not be changed. Attorneys Annes and McFadden objected on the ground that Judge Brown could be committing a crime to change the records and that it was unlawful to put the records into any other hands.
Councilman Gates then read a long resolution, based on allegations made in print by Pastor Myers on Nov. 22, Dec. 14, Dece. 29 and Dec. 31, and reflecting on city councilmen.
Councilman Gibbs declared he and Gates had worked together for a good many years, but the resolution was out of order, because the facts of all the allegations made by Pastor Myers and others would come out at the hearing.
Pastor Myers said that both Gates and Gibbs were good counselmen and that if the council took any action such as recommended, the investigation of Judge Brown would have to proceed on other lives.
A personal argument here arose between Pastor Myers and Mayor Stark, following the minister's suggestion that a farmer saloon keeper was not a fit person to enforce the Volstead act. Stark replied that a former minister was no more fit to do so.
Gates' resolution regarding Pastor Myers demanded among other things that the pastor be made to publicly apologize, that he prepare a definite statement for city council concerning his complaint against the city marshal, that if the pastor knew of the activities of any bootleger he be asked to explain why he didn't swear out a complaint against such bootleger, that the chairman of the board publicly reprimand the pastor for using the present investigation as a means of advertising his church, and that the pastor be required to appear now or later before city council and answer the resolutions. The resolutions further declared that council had no enmity or malice against the pastor of Bible class.
The resolutions were not acted
DINNER STORIES
In the days when "Spare the rod and spoil the child" was still a deeply felt axiom, a teacher complained to the principal that she had spanked one boy, Henry, until she could spank him no more for physical fatigue. Henry, it appeared, was just simply mean.
"When you want him spanked again," the principal said, "just send him to me."
When Henry happened to come into the office of the principal the next morning, that worthy regarded him with suspicion.
"Did you come from Miss Binga?" he asked.
"Yes'm," the boy replied.
"I thought so!" On the instance, he skillfully inverted Henry over his lap and administered his hand rapidly in no soothing manner. This duty done, as the boy's wails died away, he demanded:
"Now what have you to say?"
"Please ma'am," answered Henry, brokenly, "Miss Binga wants a pair of scissors."
This is supposed to be new but so are most eggs.
It's one about a so-called "master of the house" who returned from business somewhat early. He did not find his wife about, and so called downstairs to the cook:
"Bridget (cooks have to be called Bridget or Hilda or Liza) do you know anything about my wife's whereabouts?"
"I don't know sor," Bridget replied, "if they start in her wardrobe, I'm thinking they must be in the wash."
Slim, a youth fresh from a farm in the Middle West, had just taken on the job as driver of a coach in Yellowstone Park, states Judge. In order to fit himself for the position, he obtained as much information as possible from the driver whose place he had taken, and thought he had soaked up all the knowledge there was to be bad about

DYNES SAYS ASSAILANT WAS CRAZED WITH "HOP"
(Continued from Page One)
Dynes, "His movie was jealousy, or an offended disunity, and not self-defense as he claims," Cline said.
Captain Cline declared today he was not satisfied with Green's story that he went to Dynes' apartment believing Dynes was plying Miss Nomand with liquor and preventing her from leaving.
Ullhe planned to question Edith Burns, Miss Normand'a companion, today Mr. Burns, Greer claims, sent him to Dynes apartment after Miss Normand had told him she was being kept there against her will.
The condition of Dynes took an alarming turn for the worse today when his temperature went up and he developed a burning fever. His physicians immediately held a hurried consultation but made no announcements; captain of Detectives George Home announced that Greer will be charged with murder if Dynes dies.
Dynes fever, which rose this morning, was brought down by a treatment, and his guise was restored to formal. His physicians stated that while Dynes condition was serious, it could not be considered dangerous.
