The secret round-up of Isogawa's workers, produced evidence, the police said, that the conspirators planned also to assassinate the political lead- ers, Count Shinken Makino and Baron Reijiro Wakatsuki, a former premier, | and the heads of the Mitsui and Met- subishi banking houses, CONVOCATION MEETS | Northern Virginia and Valley Churches Take Part.

NA. 0091 alleged accomplices, mostly munitions |, Robert Luce Writes Last Copy for Million-Word Work. BY WILL P. KENNEDY. E internationally authoritative work on “The Science of Leg- islation,” in four large vol- umes, is completed, compris- ing & million words in 100 chapters, representing 23 yesrs of ac- tual work, with 36 years of personal legislative experience and the study of a lifetime of more than threescore years and ten. Back to Boston today goes Robert Luce, former member of Congress, where he was chairman of the Library Committee and one of the most active members of the Banking and Cur- rency Committee, former Lieutenant Governor of Massachusetts, chairman of the Commission on Cost of Living, floor leader of the State Constitu- tional Convention, president of the Republican Club of Massachusetts, member of Congress for 16 years and member of the State Legislature for nine years. With him he is taking the completed manuscript of the last of the four volumes in “The Science of Legislation,” which will be on the presses before the end of this month. Thinks Work Will Live, At the age of 73, Mr. Luce feels that he has finished the “monumental work” of his life—something to leave behind him, distinctive, a personal achievement to help guide future generations. Thomas Jefferson wrote his own epitaph, other men have built their own coffins, Robert Luce has finithed his own monument—some- thing that will be of service to man- kind long after he is gone. Of the million words in this work, each and every one was knocked out by his own fingers on his own old typewriter. He was formerly a news- paper man and established one of the best-known clipping bureaus in this country. There is not one dictated line in the four volumes. “The Science of Legislation” is divided by Mr. Luce info these four subjects, each the title of a book: “Legislative Procedure.” “Legislative Assemblies.” “Legislative Principles.” “Legislative Problems.” This latest work concerns the live problems of today, such as: Delegation of power, administrative legislation, the cabinet system. It covers the broad underlying principles of about everything that is going on today. After having served nine years in the Massachusetts State Legislature and one term as Lieutenant Governor, Mr. Luce was knocked off the political ladder in 1912 by the first Roosevelt W. & J. Sloane FORMER REPRESENTATIVE ROBERT LUCE. when the Progressives defeated all Republican candidates on the State ticket. He never expected to again hold public office. He looked around | = for something that he could take up as an avocation, to which he could devote the rest of his life and “lose” himself in the task. He had been a newspaper man and a lawyer, and in- terested generally in all civic and wel- fare questions But above all else he had acquired a keen interest in the science of legislation, and decided to take that up. Right there is where he started writing his million words to convey his analysis and interpreta- tions. Later he managed a constitutional D.

Here he was recognized as authority on the subject of legislative procedure, principles and the history of legislative assemblies.

He has been spending several days in happy reunion with some of his veteran colleagues—all of whom were amazed at his rejuvenation.
