ANTI-ANDERSON FORCES FIGHT TO PASS TORT BILL Interest in Second Indiana Federal Circuit Develops Nationally. By JOHN CARSON Times Staff. Correspondent. WASHINGTON. Jan. 25. —Consideration of the bill to create another Federal Judicial circuit in Indiana Is developing a fight of national interest. The bill now goes to the Senate Committee on Judiciary. If both Senator Watson and Senator Ralston oppose it. there is little possibility it will be considered by the Senate or gotten out of committee. If either Ralston or Watson urges it be carried to the Senate, there is possibility of an open fight. Gradually developing Interest and support for the bill is manifest In the following arguments: 1. Those that insist Indiana needs an additional court and judge to avoid expense and delay of trips from distant sections of the State to Indianapolis. 2. Labor forces, who have long rested uneasily under the jurisdiction of Judge Anderson and his famous injunctions. 3. Liberals, who are supporting the growing movement against, the sweep of court power, court usurpation and court autocracy. Anderson’s Friends Oppose Opposition to the bill is expressed by those who believe Judge Anderson 1b a great Fedeial judge, who support and approve of his labor injunction decisions and who would Increase the power of the courts. Judge Anderson is a national figure. The moment his name was mentioned in the House it was associated with injunctions and he was referred to as the "great injunction judge." He is known to the labor forces throughout the country, and it is fair to say ra-e is th- man in national labor movements who will commend him or his court, x'hey feel, rightly or wrongly, he 1 1 not In sympathy with them or the lalor movement. An additional argument for the bill Is the opposition of Attorney General Daugherty. Neither labor forces nor the liberal forces in the country have expressed support for Daugherty or his theories of government.
Watson Against Bill Watson is, more or less, committed against the bill. It is absolutely fair to say he is not in sympathy with it and is openly and emphatically opposed to any curtailment of Anderson's powers or jurisdiction. That is another reason why labor forces and the liberal forces will be for the measure. Ralston Is keeping an open mind, although the Democratic party is committed against creating any new offices or new judgeships. If neither Watson nor Ralston move to get the bill out for a vote in the Senate, there will probably be an effort made by other Senators to get discussion of the bill and a record vote on it.

F>rbn(Ts Child Authoress LONDON, Jan; 25.—A 16-year old girl looms today as one of England's most promising authoresses. Mollie Panter-Downes, who has been writing since she was 7, has had the satisfaction of seeing several volumes of her poems well received. And her first novel, “Shoreless Sea,” is just off the presses. Its plot is the eternal triangle—this time with two men and a woman, instead of a man and two women. Her heroine is reminiscent of Cinderella —only In a modem setting. Hid IJght Under Bushel WHARFEDALE, YOR K S 111 RE, Eng., Jan. 25. —England today is paying tribute to anew “musical genius.” For years, during his Idle moments, Edward Greenwood, an attendant at the West Riding Institution for Mental Patients here, has been composing difficult and highly classical piano and organ selections. But not until recently did he consent to the publication of any of his compositions. They are winning wide recognition now.

RECORDS ARISE IN POSTMASTER CASE 10 BALK SOLONS Congress’ Alleged Attempts to Sidestep Justice Seem Thwarted, By ROBERT TALLEY WASHINGTON, Jan. 25. The musty records of a quarter of a cen j tury ago arose today to refute Congress’ claim that no precedent exists for a special law by which the Government might accord Justice to George E. Taylor, former clerk In the R.chmond, Va., post office, who is now aged, feeble and almost destitute. Taylor, it will be remembered, was wrongfully accused of the theft of SSO worth of stamps, dismissed from the Richmond post office and arrested in ; 1911. In court, he was exonerated and j after a ten-year effort he was re- ) stored to his position by an executivei order of President Harding, only to be kicked out two weeks later because he was then past the age limit. To his plea for reimbursement for the ten years he was wrongfully deprived of his salary as the result of tho false accusation, the House Committee on Claims answered that no prec- j edent for such payment existed. Contradicting this, E. C. Folkes, ' Taylor’s attorney, today cited a j spcc’al law for the relief of James W. ; Jones, passed by Congress many ; years ago. Jones was discharged ; under circumstances strangely similar j to those in the Taylor case, but justice was done later. Here is the law that Attorney Folkes cited, to disprove the Claim j that no precedent exists: "Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the J United States of America in Congress assembled, that the Secretary of the Treasury be and he is hereby, authorized and directed to pay to j James W. Jones, out any money In the Treasury not otherwise appropriated, the sum of $513.71. Said James W. Jones, a clerk of class one in the office of the auditor for the Post Office Department, was. on Feb. 25, 1898, erroneously arrested end summarily dismissed on Feb. 26. 1898. Approved April 21, 1906 ” So comparable are the circumstances that the same bill might be passed today in the Taylor case merely by substituting Taylor's name and the amount he is due. Japan Welcomes Autos TOKIO, Jan. 25. —Japan’s great earthquake of last fall has proven a boon to the automobile Industry. Before the catastrophe, there were few motor vehicles in the empire. Duties and taxes made their usage almost prohibitive. Urgent demands for : transportation, when the relief workers began their labors of mercy, taught j-the government its folly. Now tho automobile is playing a big part in Japan's reconstruction. Trucks are | admitted free, and pleasure cars for i half the old duties.
