Is Affirmed Motor trucks hauling under pri vate, contract are not subject to thestate license imposed on oper ators of motor vehicles engaged In hauling persons and property for compensation according to an opinion handed down by the su preme court here yesterday in the suit brought by the Purple Truck Garage company and 16 other plaintiffs against the members of the public service commission who are entrusted with the administra tion of the automotive act. The opinion was written by Jus tice Burnett and affirms Judge L. H. McMahon of the Marion county circuit court. .The distinction between com mon carriers and private carriers is well established," read the opin ion of the supreme court. "The private " carrier transports - goods for hire, but he does not bold him self out as obliged to serve the public generally or to serve all who may apply. "On the other hand, the com mon carrier is engaged profession ally In public service and he must serve, to the extent ot his capacity all pfrho apply; to- him .for service without discrimination and gener ally, ' as required by statute,- f or ,a fixed 'and, uniform, compensation which", he may not vary , to favor ' one- person or another. , , s ; V-- "In the instant -case, .the plain tiffs, are . engaged in private ser vice r 1 ney may agree 10 serve ft. at a certain compensation and re fuse to serve, B for. even, a greater recompense and under the same or similar circumstances. In oth er words, they have the undoubted right of delectus personarum. They are not bound to contract with, anybody, but the common carrier engaged, as the new stat ute; says, 'in the business of motor transportation of and for the general public, must serve alike, within its capacity, all who apply tor such' service."

(By Associated Press ) . - The "m an without a country" of book fame would have plenty of company were he to set foot on American shores. More than 1.000,000 per sons in the United States or ap proximately one per cent of the total population are in the same fix, and most of them do not know it. This revelation was made today by Harry E. Hull, commissioner of Immigration, in. discussing some of the queer workings of the immigration laws. "You can safely say." he as serted, "that - there are ovcf " a million people in this country; to day who cannot claim citizenship ot any land. A great majority of them are; unaware of this, but quite a few of them who are 'don't seem to care." T h e Commissioner explained that this huge total of "outcasts" was created largely by aliens who have overstayed their temporary entries and by tourists, who en route to some ' other country, stopped eft here, found a Job and settled down. Many also j came over the borders when restrictions were less rigid, lost their original citizenship by-remaining here too long and then forgot or Ignored American citizenship requirements. theA wonderful CHILDREN'S PUMPS I The genuine Buster Brown Shoes sale at truly wpnderfurjtaiaih prices. 2nd EXILES RETURN TO DESTROYED HOMES (Caatia4 from $cl.) bringing everything from a bunch of bananas to a sack of potatoes to towels, toys and baby clothe. Many of the refugees who came in with their clothes rent in shreda are outfitted in a manner new to them. In this town the refugees were equally well cared for. With each load went a Red Cross official or a national guardsman, entrusted with the task of examining the houses, seeing the refugees es tablished, or, when the houses seemed unsafe, bringing them back fox. shelter with the Bed Cross. Among early departures were the "poison-ivy family" as the workers referred to Andrew Gaydos of Hlbernia. his sister Kate, and his children. Luella. aged 5, Andrew 4. and Betty Jane, 15 months. Forty-eight hours of wandering about in the woods be fore they were picked up netted the Gaydos family no worse than a poison ivy rash on the young sters' faces. Another who left recovered was Mrs. William Winters, a widow, also of Hibernia, who carried her three year old child through rough forest for 48 hours before Bhe was picked up. By 4:30 the 40th and last load, a crimson tire truck packed with refugees of three nations, had fol lowed a rumbling motor lorry out of Morris town, and workers from each temporary shelter had pro nounced their posts "cleaned up" under orders of Lieut.
