tants of the department of Indians
at Culver Military academy.
"Americanization," was the theme
of addresses by both Gen. Wood
and National Commander F. W. Gal-
brarth, jr. ' :'.'v
"The reds, who are assassins, and
never fighting men, and our lack of
preparedness, are the two chief
perils of our nation," declared the
general. "The red element who fight
our courts and every constituted
authority, must be weeded out An
other consideration in accepting im
migrants u whether their children

want no Chinese, Japanese of-Hin

proceedings" which were a part of
the government's fight last year to
Driek the soft coal strike.
Mr. Palmer's letter added that his
instructions were "in accordance with
our understanding at the time," but
Mr, Simms declared that no agree
ment of any sortrelating to sup
pression of the evidence had been
made by him or other attorneys for
the govenrment. '
Later, Mr. Ames, interpreting Mr,
maimers letter, said the attornev
General intended only to give in
structions regarding the contempt
cases, and added that inadverent
use" of language caused a different
interpretation4 being made by Mr
bimms and associated counsel.
Mr. Ames declared that Mr.
falmer believed Le had the right to
elect whether to prosecute court ac
tions at the tun of the coal strike
as civil or , criminal cases, and hav
ing chosen to ac: on the civil ,side,
tnat . he also should not attemDt
criminal prosecutions.'
Questions Palmer s Power.
"Do yu understand that the at
torney general lias the right to is
sue parlkms in .advance?" asked
Judge Anderson.
i understand that the attorrrey
general has the right not to prose
cute these miners for the strike."
Asked why the attorney jfeneral
did not want evidence that was the
basis for the contempt proceedings
used in the present cases, Mr. Ames
sam that this was because the minersJ
submitted to Judge Anderson s order
directing cancellation of the strike
order last year. This was challenged
by Judge Anderson, who asserted
the miners "flouted" his order, . but
submitted to negotiations with -Mr.
Palmer. '
"Here are two armies." continued
the judge, referring to the cases.
The general ot one agrees to hold
back his strongest divisions. Can he
do it? He may. but he would be
court-martialed if he did."
Mr. Simms, L. Ert Slack, special
prosecutor, and District Attorney
Van Nuys testified that no agreement
tor the stfpression of any evidence
was made last yeor with the attorney
general. . Mr. Ames, who attended
the conference with Judge Anderson
and others and at which Mr. Palmer
has been quoted ?s saying the agree
ment was reached, volunteered a
similar statement and flat denial
that any sort of an agreement was
made by Judge . Anderson.' .' '
May Not Be Tried.
Mr. Simms and Mr. Slack also said
that their efforts to remove defend
ants living outside Indiana had not
yet been successful, and that they
had the impression that the Depart
nijtnt'of Justice was licit in favor of
pressing the case. Mr. Van Nuys
declared that intimations had conic
to him from the "people connected
with the defense" thaf the cases
would not come to trial, and he
named Karl Houck, an investigator
employed by the miners, a a. his in
formant. Mr. Van; Nuys statement
.la. .1
was hi jaiiswer iu uic juugc s vjucsiiuii
whether he felt persons outside the
case could get information from the
department before he received it '
"Were you confronted with the
suggestion thae the Department of
Justice was' not in' sympathy with
this prosecution?" Mr. Simms was
asked, testifying about removal pro
ceedings in other states.
"We were," he answered.
"Was that repeated?"
"Very many times," said Mr.
Simms, but the source of these sug
gestions was not brought out.
Just before the investigation ''ad
journed' to be renewed later "hr the
day, Judge Anderson declared, "I
anvgoiug to find out if this govern
ment centers in a few individuals in
Washington," and he added that he
also wuld learn whether he was a
"puppet to be controlled by strings
pulled from Washngton."

California Governor
El Centro, Cal., Nov. 8. "The

"I am glad to see tnat tne voters

that it will never lead to war. There
may be diplomatic interchanges be
tween Washington and japan, dui
the law will stand and Japan will
never go further than protesting.
"The reason for this is simple. No
foreigner can own land in Japan, and
no foreign workingman can enter
apan. England-, Japan s own ally,
and Australia have both placed in
force laws similar to the California
law and Japan has done nothing."

Minneapolis, Nov. 8. Results of
last Tuesday's election are construed
as "a remarkable gain" for the Na
tional Nonpartisan league in a state
ment to The Associated Press today
b? Oliver S. Morris, director of
league publicity and editor of its
national oublication.
"League candidates polled more
"than 3.000,000 votes in 1920 in nine
states," Mr. Morris said. "This is
more than three times the vote of
two years ago, and is a remarkable
gain in a republican landslide year."
Although the league ' candidates
for state offices in Minnesota were
deieated by large majorities, men en
dorsed by the league in Wisconsin
and North Dakota were elected gov
ernprand in North Dakota, the first
nonpartisan United States senator
was named, M Morris pointed
out.
"We increased our membership
in the national house of representa
tives, from four to six," Mr. Morris
continued. "Although . beaten for
state offices in Minnesota, we just
about maintained our, minority
strength in the Minnesota and Wis
consin legislatures, and, retained
control in North Dakota, In Mon
tana, Idaho, Washington and Ne
braska we elected several state legis
lators. ,
"On the whole, we feel that the'
league, has made wonderful progress
in two years.

marriage should be declared valid.
