MOTHER-IN-LAW
ACQUIRES DEED
When it was shown in court that Mrs. Joe Woodside, wife of an employee of a hardware firm at Orange, had secured a complaint from the district attorney's office in which she charged her husband with non-support and had used the complaint as a "club" in forcing her husband to deed his property to her mother, Judge E. B. West in superior court here denied her complaint for divorce and absolved Woodside from the payment of alimony and attorney fees.
After the case had been concluded the judge made terse comment upon the evidence to the effect that a possible attempt to delude the court had been frustrated. Mr. Woodside in explaining the complaint issued by the district attorney against her husband, said that she wanted the property transferred so that her mother might have proper security for a 4000 note claimed to have been given by her parent in favor of Woodside. She admitted that she did not know what credit had been allowed on the note for the property transferred.
Woodside, on the stand, said his mother-in-law had told him it was none of his business what credit had been allowed on the principal of the note through the transfer of the porperty. His mother-in-law still holds the note he said, which matures in September of this year. "She had me scared," he shoutified.

You can't prove to Miss Ruth Ellington that boobed hair isn't aid to beauty. She entered a beauty contest in St. Paul, Minn., and was passed up by the judges in a preliminary competition.

that if they passed the exclusion act it would undo the work of 20 years of careful diplomacy in the Far East and would utterly destroy the good feeling between this country and the Japanese that resulted from the Washington arms conference.
His opposition to exclusion was strong and unqualified from the start.
There have been frequent reports, indispite as to source, that should the exclusion ban go thru, Secretary Hughes would regard it as a repudiation of his policy and would feel constrained to retire as Mr. Coolidge's secretary of state. Neither the White House nor the state department has ever seen fit to dignify these persistent reports by a denial, but it is known that Mr. Hughes feels strongly on the point.
Now the White House declaration that the president himself favors exclusion gave re-birth to these rumors today.
At the Capitol, the announcement of the president's attitude today was interpreted as:
"Soften the language of the exclusion so as to placate Japanese feeling as much as possible, and the bill will be signed."
It was on this theory that the conference required their labor today in an effort to adjust the differences between the house and senate measures.
There was every indication the bill will be before President Coolidge next week.

Daugherty Faced with Threat Of Criminal Prosecution Now
(By William K. Hutchinson)
I. N. S. Staff Correspondent)
WASHINGTON, May 3.—Former Attorney General Harry H. Daugherty was threatened today with institution of criminal proceedings before a federal grand jury as a retaliatory move for his effort to obtain an injunction halting the Wheeler-Brookhart committee's investigation of his administration of the department of justice.
Senator Brookhart, Republican of Iowa, requested the committee today to prepare a "partial report" on the evidence brot out against Daugherty at its public hearings. Brookhart proposed that this report be submitted to the senate with a request that Harlan Fiske Stone, the new attorney general, be instructed to lay the testimony before a federal grand jury here "for the purpose of starting criminal action against Daugherty."
A majority of the committee, which is dominated by the insurgent Republican-Democratic coalition, was said to favor this proceeding.
Under the Brookhart plan, the committee would strike back at Daugherty and his brother, Mel S. Daugherty, who also obtained a temporary injunction stopping all efforts to investigate the records of his bank, the Midland National at Washington Courthouse, Ohio.
Brookhart contended that, if the evidence were laid before a federal grand jury, these records would be subpoenaed from the Mel Daugherty bank and all telegrams sent or received by the former attorney general could be scrutinized.
The Western Union Telegraph Company recently refused to turn these messages over to the committee and Daugherty asked the court to enjoin the company from giving up the telegrams.
All members of the committee were indignant at the former attorney general's effort to stop the investigation. Senator Wheeler Democrat of Montana, termed "an open confession of guilt."
"This move by Daugherty further evidence that he is afraid to have the truth of his unfairness revealed to the public," said Wheeler.
"He insisted that his administration be investigated when charges of misconduct were first made against him because it started, he has done everything in his power to conceal evidence of his official negligence To my mind it is an open confession of guilt."
Senator Moses, Republican, New Hampshire, an administration leader, described Daugherty court action as "unusual."

NO CLEMENCY ON LIQUOR CHARGES
That no one having wine or intoxicants in their possession need expect clemency in his court, was the statement made today by J. F. Ahlborn, city recorder, following the $100 fine and 30-day suspended sentence imposed yesterday upon Otto J. Rees who entered a plea of guilty to having wine in his possession, but said that he had it for home consumption.
Judge Ahlborn issued the following statement:
People vs. Otto J. Rees:
The law gives each and every citizen an equal opportunity to secure for themselves a permit for the manufacture of wine intended for family consumption.
Possession of wine and the manufacture thereof without a proper permit, even though intended for home consumption and made with no intentions of disposing of same for gain, must of necessity be reviewed with suspicion, and there is no way of separating it from the obnoxious and altogether too rampant channels of illicit trafficking in intoxicants, or commonly known as bootlegging. This degrading traffic is rapidly undermining the good morals of our nation, leaving death, destruction and ruin in its wake.
All cases of possession and manufacture of intoxicants without proper permits brought before this court hereafter will be classed as illicit trafficking in intoxicants and treated accordingly.
There is no evidence to show that you have made this wine for any other purpose than for your own family consumption, and the court is inclined to believe your statement that the wine was made for and used mostly by your invalid wife.
This court, however, feels that a strict compliance with the regulations as laid down by the law must of necessity be observed.
Puzzling Question: is Bobber a Barber?
PORTLAND, Ore., May 3.—Is a hair bobber a barber?
The court must decide. The answer to the question of moment is expected after evidence is weighed in the case of the state board of barber examiners against Mrs. Hilda Jensen, beauty specialist.
Mrs. Jensen, altho without a barber's license, has been taking a leading role in the beauty parlor sport of bobbing feminine heads. Tis a rank breach of well known and established tonsorial rights, the barbers assert.
But the defense would not have it. Mrs. Olive Ruch—the woman who lost her locks—admitted she did not get a shave, whereupon consul informed the court that a barber is one who shaves and trims beards, derived from the Latin "barburh" meaning whiskers.

LONDON, May 3.—One result of the Anglo-Belgian agreement is that France will not be pressed for immediate evacuation of the Ruhr by England, it was learned from a semi-official source this afternoon.
Premier Theunis of Belgium and Foreign Minister Hymans conferred at length with Premier Ramsay MacDonald, setting forth the French viewpoint and attempting to reconcile differences of opinion between Paris and London regarding reparations.
It is understood in authoritative quarters that Great Britain will not insist upon evacuation of the Ruhr by French troops so long as the French relinquish economic control.
Such an agreement will give the Germans economic freedom promised by the Dawes plan.

A fairy council handed a statement to Director Hecks of the State Department of Agriculture, in behalf of the committee: C. C. Teague and Fredrick W. Klesel representing the California Development Assn., Alpencer of the California Woolrowers' Acre's and himself. The establishment follows:
"Our conference with Secretary Mallace and Dr. Mohler has given us every assurance that not only will every effort be made to stamp out the foot and mouth disease in California as quickly as possible, but that the various unnecessary embargos by other states which we have an injurious effect upon industry, not only in western states, but in various ways throughout the whole nation, will soon be modified. A rapid return to normal business conditions will result.
"An analysis made by the U.S. Department of Agriculture of former outbreaks in the United States (five major and three minor ones) covering a period of 54 years, shows that in every instance where the animal disease occurred in new territory there was tendency on the part of the public to put into effect extreme quarantine regulations and embargoes in their sincere effort to safeguard their interests, lay in every instance, as soon as time allowed the public to learn of the actual nature of the disease, methods of combatting it and its channels of spread, the public has accepted the federal regulations which have been built through years of experience and found to simply safeguard not only the interests of other districts but the work of officials in their eradication fight.
"An analysis of the present situation shows that only those states which have never experienced outbreaks of the foot and mouth disease have placed drastic and unnecessary embargoes, injurious to national commerce. The analysis"

vided for in the proposed legislation. No provision for that sum has been made in the budget. The railroads are fighting the Howell bill on the ground that the present transportation act has not had a chance to demonstrate its value. A fight on railroad legislation may precipitate a controversy over the suggested repeal of the so-called guarantee clause. Investors have been worried about that possibility for some time. Should congress dispose of the question by falling to change the transportation act, the holders of securities will be considerably cheered. This is another important factor in the demand for an early adjournment of congress for the less the house and senate tinker with the business structure, the better the interested parties like it and the more chance they say, for a business revival in the remainder of 1924.
The McNary-Haughen bill will cause a real fight. It may even delay adjournment. The champions of the measure are in dead earnest, and the opponents are insistent that such piece of legislation will pass.
The differences are irreconcilable. They represent two schools of thought on agricultural economics. The president is preserving an attitude of apparent neutrality but his messages to congress would seem to be a guide to his future attitude and there prevails at this time confidence that he will not sign the measure. The fact that the Norbeck bill was beaten is taken nowadays as a precedent for in that fight the farm block was shattered. A combination of southern Democrats and eastern Republicans beat the bill. A similar alignment would kill the McNary-Haughen bill and save the president the problem of acting on it at all. Some of his friends are sure he will not have to act on it. They want some agricultural legislation, however.
An analysis of the present situation shows that only those states which have never experienced outbreaks of the foot and mouth disease have placed drastic and unnecessary embargoes, injurious to national commerce. The analysis further shows a very interesting case that not one of the states which suffered so severely during the 1914-1915 outbreak, when over 77,000 head of livestock were destroyed, have placed any embargoes other than those recommended by federal authorities which can only livestock and unpasteurized products and hay, grain and feed from infected areas.
Secretary Wallace assured us that his department will send authoritative information on the situation to those states which have disrupted commerce through slander but unscientific quarantine regulations.
"We feel that we may expect almost immediate relief in the emergency situation and that our healthy crops will be distributed through our natural commercial channels."
GOVERNORS CONFER WASHINGTON, May 3.—A conference of western governors was under consideration today by the department of agriculture as a step toward eradication of the foot and mouth disease in the Pacific coast states.
The conference probably will be held in one of the mountain states and plans will be considered for lifting all embargoes while taking additional precautions to prevent spread of the disease.
The department was urged to call a governor's conference by eastern senators.

BONUS RETURNS TO WHITE HOUSE
WASHINGTON, May 3.—The bonus came back to roost on the White House door step today.
Passed by both houses of congress overwhelmingly, and assured passage again, even over a presidential veto, the controversial issue bids fair this time to be settled once and for all.
The president will either have to sign it or veto it within ten days, else the measure becomes law automatically.
Opinion was badly divided today over the probable course of President Coolidge. Members of congress who have discussed the situation with him recently, have gone away from the White House with directly conflicting views as to what he will do.
Some expressed the view today that Mr. Coolidge, realizing the bill is bound to become law anyway, will either sign it on the theory it is the cheapest bill obtainable from a treasury standpoint, or else will allow it to become law without signature, thus indicating a degree of disapproval.
Others were confident that, in view of his frequent and often repeated criticism of the bonus "in principle" the president would not hesitate to reject the measure and return it to congress with a strong message of outright disapproval.
Meanwhile pressure for and against the measure began to heat against the White House doors today. Telegrams, letters and messages of all sorts poured into the president's office recommending a course of action.
