FOUR-POWER PACT RATIFIED BY SENATE (Continued from page 1) the treaty broke over the rule aainst debate to inject remarks into the record. O ne of these oc casions was when Senator John son asked for a vote on the' reser vation originally presented in committee by Senator Brondegee, Republican. Connecticut, propos ing that the United States assume "no moral or legal obligation' to use force under the treaty. "Is it proper to ask." Baid Sen ator Harrison. Democrat. Missis sippi, "whether this is the origin al reservation agreed to by the foreign relations committee and changed at the request of the president?" Speaker Beats Tattoo "It Is," promptly replied Sena tor Johnson before the presiding officer ended the discussion by a belated tattoo with his gavel. The reservation was voted down. 28 to 64, with only five Re publicans supporting it. Later, just as a final vote was to be taken on ratification, Sena tor Hitchcock, Democrat, . .ebras ka, asked on the privilege of a point of order whether the decla- clothes - -qj'' il ration accompanying the treaty, signed at the same time by the arms delegates and declaring that purely domestic issues are not to be within the scope of the agree ment was actually a part of -the pact. Vice President Coolidge. presiding, replied that he did not care to rule on the question be cause the declaration was not be fore the senate and Senator Hitch cock asked when and how it then would be possible to amend the declaration. He contended that it the declaration were not a part of the treaty, it would not be binding and hence domestic is sues r eally could be dealt with when the four powers meet In "conference." Debate Cut Off After a short colloquy the de bate was shut off by the vice president but opposition senators said the point would be renewed in tomorrow's discussion of the supplemental treaty. This treaty was called up immediately after ratification of the four power pact but Senator Robinson. Democrat, Arkansas, announced that he de cider to present and discuss an amendment and consideration was put over until tomorrow's session. Mr. Robinson planned, it is un derstood, to amend the supple mental pact so that the Island of Sakhalien, occupied by the Japan ese should not come within the scope of the four power arrange ment. MAJORITY WANTS NEW NAME IN WEST SALEM (Continued from page 1) its name. There were already thirty-'leven Salems in the coun try and the postal authorities opined that they did not want any more. Salems, let alone any hy phenated Salems. Certainly. West Salem must change its name. Where could a new name be found? Oh. that would be easy. There were lots of nafes to be had for the asking. And then, there would be many individuals of in ventive inclinations who would devise a cognomen for the little Polk county town. The Statesman issued a call for names and nearly 200 were sub mitted. It fairly rained names. Every word that had been over looked by Noah Webster was pinned upon the town that want ed a name. In the meanwhile the printer (had about decided that he did not want to print a West Salem paper, after all. But still the .names came. Some Well Satisfied But it happens that there are Bom4 matter-of-fact folks over in West Salem who do not appreci ate having things thrust upon them. They have lived in West Salem for several years and have no fault to find with its present name. Then again, it was found that the new postoffice would entail more walking with only a slight gain in mail delivery service. Those who live out along the present free delivery route at a distance from the city but with in the West Salem limits would lose the present service and would be compelled to make the journey to the new postoffice. everal Meetings Held ""bat is the story of the West Sa.:m poctofflce situation. There have been stormy sessions of the West Salem city council in an effort to arrive at a solution of the problem. In an effort to aid the city officials there have been several mass meetings. Last night's session brought out an expression from 71 residents who are vitally interested. It is dlf ficult to predict the final solu tion.

He said he wanted to ascertain certain facts about this action and others which were being prose cuted against Rickard. His ref erenceto the interests of justice was ordered stricken from the record.

Rex Beach and others told him it was a place where one got a "square deal," he said. Kooevelt Has Answer Assistant District Attorney Pa cora then put many hypothetical questions to Roosevelt inquiring what he would think of u man' character is he knew his place at Goldfield made $20,000 the' night it opened,-and if he knew disso lute women frequented that place and the one in Alaska. To ono of the questions. Roosevelt made this reply: "I would not think that a man who ran a gambling house was necessarily of bad character any more than I would consider that a man who ran a church was nec essarily of good character." On re-direct examination, Roosevelt swore "never" when asked if he had ever heard that "bad women were employed In Kickard's gambling places of gbM rush days. "In Judging a person's charar ter would you take into consider ation his past associates," Pec or then inquired. Associates Judged "Not necessarily," the witness replied. He said, though, that he often did .take associates into con sideration in judging character. Roosevelt said he always had known Rickard as an honest, up standing man and that he and his brothers and his father-in-law were associated with the promot er in thet ownership of a coffee house in the Times Square theat rical district. C. P. Dan. who knew Rickard In the Klondike said his reputa tion at Nome was high as that or any man in town. John Drake, gray haired oil and mining man. who knew Rickard in the west said he was of "100 per cent character." Former Governor Dickerson explained that at the time Rickard ran gambling places in Nevada, it "was lawful to do so. Finals in Handball to Be Played off Today MILWAUKEE, March 24.
