The host of friends of the young people join in wishing them a very happy future. MUST USE CARE The reckless driving along the avenues of the city at the time when the school children are going to and from their homes must cease or the parties doing this will be made to suffer the full penalty of the law. There have been a number of in stances where cars have narrowly missed children and especially on Washington avenue and in order to curb this practice Chief of Police Barclay is preparing to launch a campaign that will assure more safe-, ty to the little folks enroute to school by having the drivers make a little less speed, which, while it may be irksome to the drivers, certainly wilt result in saving the possibility of death to some one and a burden on the mind of the driver of the car that might cause the injury of some child. In reaching the Central build ing the young folks are compelled to cros3 the busy arteries of travel and caution should be used by both the school children and the drivers of autos.

Attorney General Defines Eail In junction as Ban Only on Vio lence and Harding Agrees Washington, Sept. 5. The injunc tion obtained in Chicago against striking shopmen by the government, Attorney General Daugherty said to day, will not be used to abridge per sonal liberty, nor will freedom of speech or the press be interfered with. But. lie added, "freedom of speech and freedom of press does not mean those mediums may be used to incite riots or murders." The attorney general also declar ed that the injunction had not been obtained to force men to work, nor was it a move to prevent strikes. The statement of Mr. Daugherty which was made to newspaper corre spondents, followed earlier declara tion by a White House spokesman af ter today's cabinet meeting that President Harding felt the injunc tion would not in any way endanger the constitut ional rights of men on strike or of other citizens. But. it was added, the Chicago injunction pro ceedings would be followed up with the detemiinat ion of preventing in terference with transportation. Just how far the government would be obliged to go with prosecu tions against individuals, the White House spokesman said, could only be determined by events. It was indi cated that no activities in connec tion with the strike outside of court matters were row in progress. Attorney General Daugherty in his statement declared there would be no objection by the department of justice to moetings cf union men to perform any of their functions "that do not interfere with inter state commerce or otherwise violate the law." "If any one undertakes to abridge personal liberty," he added, "I will be as vigorous in upholding the peo ple's rights as I am vigorous in op posing violence. The attorney general expressed the belief that the strike situation would "quiet down" this week, and added: "I do not want to go any further in these proceedings than is necessary. I want to be reasonable about it, but not so reasonable as to let the government and the people be trampled upon." Responding to a question, the at torney general said he thought a court would construe advocacy of picketing as bring in violation of Judge Wilkerson's temporary re straining order. Reports to the department of jus tice today, he asserted, showed the situation over the country to bo "quiet, very comfortable." PLAN NEW CHARITY FOR NEBRASKA INTEREST LACKING IN NEVADA Reno, Xev..

Hornberger thinks.

Woman's clubs, ladies' aid societies and other organ-J izations whicli devote themselves to, humanitarian undertakings will be; asked to co-operate. After getting the names of con victs from the board of pardons, data will be collected by the child welfare bureau from different sour-1 ces to ascertain what families may! be in need of assistance. The men' themselves will be interviewed as to the circumstances of their depend ents outside. Going After Mothers' Pensions The bureau will exert itself to secure mothers' pensions, paid out of county funds, where they find a convict's wife struggling against odds to maintain herself and child ren. Where prisoners in the penitenti ary are regularly employed in fac tory work of the institution, they re ceive wages and a specified percent age of the money they earn is set aside for the support of their fami-! lies or relatives. In many cases, this is enough, with what the convict's dependents can earn on their own account, to provide a comfortable living. But there are instances where it is not sufficient. Then, too, some convicts do not have employ ment which yields them a steady in come. - i Blank fo NEW JUSTICE IN UNITED STATES SUPREME COURT John H. Clarke Has Tendered His Resignation to President; Ef fective September 18th. Washington, Sept. 4. Resignation of Associate Justice John H. Clarke from the United States supreme court and the intention to appoint Former Senator George H. Sutherland of Utah to succeed him was announced today by President Harding. Justice Clarke's resignation will become ef fective September 18, when he reach es the age of sixty-five years. A desire to serve his neighbors and "some causes" in ways which would not be possible while he was holding public office was given by Justice Clarke in a letter to the president as the impelling reason for his leaving the bench. A retirement from public life at sixty-five, he added, would conform to his "philosophy of life." Senator Sutherland, who has been se lected for the vacancy, is sixty years old. He was born in Buckingham, England, in 1862. He served Utah in the first state senate.

Justice McKenna, senior member of the supreme court and the only member in the city, expressed regret today when notified of Justice Clarke's resignation. A "more agree able man" than Mr. Clarke never sat on the bench, he said, adding that he considered the appointment of for mer Senator Sutherland "excellent."
