At present, Senator Johnson of California is leading the fight for the bill, already passed by the house, and Senator Hayden of Arizona is making a good showing as one of ©1020, REG.

Decision of C. R. O. M., the Mexi- can federation of labor, to split with the government, coupled with the manifest friendship of Calles toward the labor organization, led to the fear that the former president, whose following is large, might sup- port the stand of the labor organiza- tion. This would involve Calles and his followers in a dispute with the Present administration and create a situation of serious possibilities. Although the situation apparently had eased somewhat, there was evi- dence of bitter feelings. A noisy throng outside the national chamber of deputies was dispersed by city firemen, who turned a hose on them. One crowd was denied admittance to the chamber, where the situation was being discussed, and was shouting Long live Manrique; Death to Mo- jrones.” Luis N, Morones was secre- ti of labor under President Calles and is president of C. R. O. M. reiio Manrique, an agrarian deputy, led the attack on Calles and Morones in the discussion in the chamber. The climax of the situation appar- ently was reached, however, when former President Calles issued a formal declaration allaying fears that he might throw his influence against the government. He even went further and lauded Portes Gil as a representatitve of legality and the revolutionary ideals and recom- mended that the army and the public support the present president. As proof of his sincerity Calles announced his resignation from the presidency of the National Revolu- tionary party and said that he was retiring definitely from public life. The retirement of Calles from the party in which he was the prime mover left the bothersome question of deciding upon his successor, It will be necessary to find a leader popular cnough to weld the various revolutionary groups into one strong organization. MRS. POTTER MAY TESTIFY AT THAT TIME (Continued from naze one) walk and the walk to the street; William Franklin, policeman, who went to the Potter residence after the shooting and the hospital where Webb was taken; Dr. A. M. Fisher, who testified that Mrs. Potter was too ill to appear in court and that it wouldn’t be advisable to bring her to the witness stand until the early part of next week; Dr. Cyrus Han- sen, hospital interne; Bruce Belk, at whose home Potter had visited short- ly after 10 o’clock the night of the shooting and who had given Potter, according to his testimony, a drink of alcohol mixed with sugar and wa- ter; and Hellie L. Belk, Northern Pa- cific agent at Sterling, who testified that he had visited the Potter home shortly after 9 o’clock the night of the shooting, and had “taken a drink” with the defendant. The defense attempted to prove that Potter was “intoxicated” the night of the shooting. Were ‘Quite Intoxicated’ Hellie Belk testified that he went to the Potter home shortly after 9 Au-! "eee | 20 minutes. Potter, Webb, and Bart- | ley were there, he said. They were “quite intoxicated.” -He said there were three glasses with spoons on | the kitchen table. He took a drink r. Potter as he was leaving, He testified that though most of | their conversation was “intelligible,” th talk about the meat they were goi to take with them seemed “foolish” to him. 3 Bruce Belk, 609 Eleventh street, was called_to the stand next. He said that Ray Potter had come to his home shortly after 10 p. m. Oct. 27. Belk stayed about 10 minutes after Potter had arrived and left be- fore Potter. Belk said Potter was “intoxicated” at that time. Potter had one drink of alcohol mixed with water and sugar at the Belk resi- idence, taking it just as Belk was jleaving. It was about 10:15 or 10:20 {when Belk left the house and saw Potter for the last time that night. The attorneys on both sides held short conferences. Belk said he didn’t know how long Potter stayed at the Belk home. He said Potter always walked into his home without knocking when he was drunk but knocked when he was sober. The spectators tittered. He said he was a close friend of the defendant and felt the same toward him now as he did before the shoot- ing. Mr. Belk, Miss Hupp, who is a sister-in-law of Belk, Lee Neth and a man named Durfee, who lives in Bismarck were there when Potter ar- rived, he said. Sullivan asked if Lee Neth was a man. The court broke into laughter |p. m., October 27, and stayed 15 or| —ETHEL— Mut Ma lees Mi Mood as the witness answered in the af- firmative. The witness said Neth was “get- ting around” the house all right. The spectators again laughed. He said Potter took a drink from the bottle just outside the door, on the porch of. the residence. Belk went to a*barn dance near McKen- zie with Neth and Durfee. Miss Hupp, Mrs. Belk and Ray Potter were left at tlie house. Belk said that Potter was not so drunk that he was afraid to leave him with his wife and sister-in-law. Belk said he knew Potter “too well.” The objection of the defense to the preceding question was overruled. Sullivan warned Belk about get- ting “facetious” when the witness answered, “Potter walked with his feet, I imagine.” He said he didn’tethink it would make much difference to give Potter, another drink after he had asked for it. y The witness was excused and Judge Coffey at 3:45 declared the court in recess for 10 minutes. Court was resumed at 4:04 and Cameron then made his motion that the court be declared in recess until Tuesday. BABY PRINCESS ‘HAS CHANCE TO BECOME QUEEN (Continued from page >ne) house always bows low to her when she toddles past—a thing that makes her laugh every time. The policeman on the corner salutes her gravely when he sees her, and she always raises her little hand to return the greeting. When her mother brings her into the living room to be shown to visitors, no one present every for- gets that Princess Elizabeth is the third lady of the land; ladies who come over to greet her curtesy as they approach her, and the gentle- men bow with the utmost solemnity. When she grows a little older she will receive an education befitting the exalted station she may some day hold—which means that she will have to become expert in the use of four or five languages and will have to have a long schooling in history, eco- nomics, politics and statecraft. Her girlhood and young womanhood will be accompanied by the same restric- tions anil publicity that have attend- ed the Prince of Wales. But just now she doesn’t know anything about all of that. She may be the third lady of the land, a direct descendant of William the Conqueror and Alfred the Great, and a possible future queen of England; but at this moment she’s just a happy, lovable little girl with golden curls and a constant smile. In line of succession, only two per- sons now stand between the little princess and thg Birtish throne—the Prince of Wal@s and the Duke of York. When Queen Victoria was a child two and a half years old seven persons stood between her and the throne of the empire. Dynamite Adds Danger to Fog Lost Mail Plane (Continued from page one) caked down. His landing , gear missed the trees and ripped through the brush. The plane, came to a grinding stop against a stump he adn’t seen. “The plane was such a complete wreck I had to chop out the mail with an ax, but I wasn’t scratched,” Smith explained. “Some hunters showed me an old road which led down the mountain and I found my way out to the field.” Smith never had serious trouble when caughé in one of the danger- ous line squalls, the boiling _ winds at the edge of a storm, but Paul F. Collins,- another of the airmail pilots, recently was forced to leap 4000 feet in his parachute when one of these storms ripped off the wings of his plane high over the moun- tains. Snow Storms Dangerous Snow storms like the recent storm which cost the lives of two airmail pilots and the pilot of a passenger plane and two passengers riding with him are one of the worst dan- gers the airmail pilots have to con- tend with. Recently with the installation of almost instantaneous weather re- porting service pilots know the sort of weather they face as they take off Yor their flights. But several years ago when the pilots had only the barest weather protection, things were different. Smith had his wildest ride over the Pennsylvania Mountains in the tragic snow storm of Jan. 28, 1922, which wrecked the Knickerbocker Theater, Washington, costing the lives of 27 persons. Misses Death ‘by Inches Smith was caught in this storm over the mountains and ° forced south in an attempt to get into the old airmail base at Bustleton, near Philadelphia, Pa., for gas. That time he overran the field by follow- ing a wrong branch of the Reading railroad. His carburetor was full of water and the motor hardly turning over fast enough to keep the plane off the ground when he suddenly spied three trees in his path. “There gvas nothing to do but dive my plane toward the ground through the swirling snow and get up sufficient speed to zoom over them,” Smith said. The desperate maneuver worked. His plane, gatherine speed in the dive, nosed up and shot over the trees, The airmail base was the other side. He landed safely, but his motor was so far gone it wouldn’t lift the plane off the ground again. om NEXT: Battling ice in the clouds. oO { \ Additional Sports 2 Seer ee FLASHER FIVE a [ouroueway Wiliams | BEATS GARSON MY G HAVE FETCH BLT CERTIN FOLKS ‘MUST AWFOL PORE OSH, HAD N' UP.
