As the four “10s8” were recited hy the court. and as Tate mad> a mental note of “forty vears.” his only com- ment was an almost inaudible “whew!"” Kloss had nothing to say before receiving his 30-year sentence, but his attorney, Frank J.

THE SUNDAY NEW YORK WOMEN - VOTE DRY DEMAND Despite Smith Plea, but Delegates Differ. By the Asanciated Press. ALBANY, N. Y. December 3. De spite the personal appeal of Gov. Smith at the annual convention din ner for a more liberal interpretation of the rights of citizens to organize in opposition to statutes with which they disagree, the New York State lLeague of Women Voters closed its 1927 meel ing today after going on vecord in favor of strict prohibition and con tinued law enforcement. Soon after the league acted favou prohibition measures which tion for the first time in the history of the organization, the delegates heard former Gov.

By the Associated Press i ORAN, Algiers, December 3.—The French Foreign Legion tonight sl had Bennett J. Doty of Biloxi, Miss.. under its control, and he was still “Gilbert Clare,” the name under which he enlisted, despite notification | of his release. Regardless of the technical release given him at Sidi-Bel-Abbas vest day he was tonight aboard the tramn freighter Tafna somewhere south of regular ration of thin soup. The French military authorities are going to take him at his word tha he wants to go home, and place him ahoard a New York hound liner at| Cherbourg or e Havre. His colonel told him he was free yesterday at Sidi-Bel-Abbas, bur his sergeant told him otherwise here, and he is being chaperoned as far as Marseilles on the way home. Obey Economy Orders. Doty had expected to sail in a nice sunny cabin aboard the crack pas- senger steamer Gouveneur General la ¥erriere, which his friends had re- served foe him. Late last night, how- ever, there came an “economy” order from some one higher up that legion- naires being returned to France should be shipped by the slow freighter Tafna. The regimental officers here, having no leeway, obeyed orders and sent Doty with the rest, still virtually as a prisoner, disregarding the fact tkat Doty's passage would be paid by friends if he went on the liner, there- by saving the French government | any experse at all for his fare. Doty will arrive at Marseilles about noon Monday, and tkere he and the others will report under military ascort at Fort St. Jean, where he en- listed. He mayv be held there for | two or three days, as military red tape is slow in untangling. Doty had not time to get some | *‘eity clothes” he had planned to b this morning. When he left he was still wearing the army’s gift suit of | civilian eclothes, which is anything but tailor-made in its appearance. Came Near Rebellion, The American member of the Legion | who won horors in fights with Druse | rebels in Syria and faced with forti- tuge the prospect of a firing squad for desertion, came close to rebellion | when @& non-commissioned officer | aronsed him in his barraeks this | morning and told him he must for- <ake for three days his newly gained liberty. “I won’t go,” Doty shouted at (he sergeant, hut his sense of discipline | instilled by 30 months of service with | the hard-hoiled Foreign Legion asserted | itself. He got up, got himself ready and went docilely down into the hold | of the freighter Tafna, Despite strictness of discipline and the presence of officers, Doty managed 1o send a note to the Associated Press corvespondent on the back of an old envelope, telling of the sudden change | in orders. “They ure shipping me aboard the | Tafna,” said the note. “Please rush| down 10 the dock.” i French officers here, however, said | they had to obey orders and couid not let Doty travel on a passenger vessel. | The officers seemed to look upon | Doty’s release as a bad precedent for the Legion, where discipline is ex-| tremely severe. It had been understood that Doty would be delivered to Alfred H. Elford, American consular agent here, who had a letter supposed to contain money for Doty's passage home. The changes in plans, however, prevented Doty seeing Fiford and the legion- naire started without funds.

DYKE BABY HOME MOVED INTO CITY Denial of Right to Operate in Maryland Followed by Crossing of Line. Denied a license to conduct a baby foundling home at 100 Cedar avenue, Takoma Park, Md., Mrs. Effie S.

Mrs. Dyke was accuged of sheltering infants under 1 year of age, who had heen given into ars without authority of the physicians. ‘When the Mary a permit from Mrs. Dyke last Septem- , she decided to fight the case and appealed to the Superior Court.

In fact, it was apparent that Mrx, Dyke soon lost all tract of most of the children arter they had left her home through adoption.
