May 12 (AP) Pre mier Mussolini today won the sup' port of the Italian senate for the new electorial law making ' Italy a one party constituency by a speech in which he again termed universal suffrage a conventional fiction and argued for the aboli tion of all parties except the state. The senate voted 1(1 to 45 to adopt the law which the chamber of deputies had already approved. Mussolini told the senators tha the bill was as much a conse quence of fascist doctrine as it was r result of the defacto situation in the country. It is not only to have the entire chamber of one party and one political color, but to acknowledge syndicalism as the organ of public law. .

He searched in every land. He paused to admire the towering forests the delightful streams, the verdant meadow: lands, the snow clad mountain peaks and the marvelous statues. He lingered long over a garden of American Beauty roses and thought surely nothing could be more gloriously beautiful and ne gathered some. As he left the garden he noticed the smile of an infant, happy, trustful, a vertiable light of joy unable to decide he claimed that too, to take with him. .Then he noticed the Mother by the in fant's side and saw in her eyes the tender mother's love. Again he could not decide and so with his three treasures he returned to Heaven. Y When he arrived Io, the beautuHwes were withered and time had changed the infant's smile somewhat yet the mother's love remained true and pure. It was the most beautiful treasure of the world. . .

Advices received at Tsingtao from Tsinan say that the Japan ese propone to control banditry by plain clothes guards at various strategic places. The large shops at Tsinan are still closed but the smaller ones as well as the res taurants are now running as us ual. Meanwhile the oouthern forces skirting the Tsinan zone, are con tinuing northward and reports from Tientsin say that cavalry regiments attached to the army of Feng Tu Hsiang. who is now allied with the nationalists, have occupied Tehehow on the Shan- tung-Chihli border In continue tlon of a drive on Peking. Northerners Fall Back Advices received in Tientsin said thst advance guards had nenetrated into the province of Chihli Itself and that the northern commander of the eastern district had begun a withdrawal to Ma- chang, 2 S miles south of Tient sin. Capture of Tienteln by the nationalists would be of extreme importance since it would cut Peking off from the sea and would seriously menace the communica tions of Chang Tso-Lin, the north ern dictator, with his native Msn churiane.

(AP) Secretary Mellon's words of ad vice to his fellow Pennsylvanians, setting Herbert Hoover above all other candidates but counseling against a definite pledge to any one, were hailed by Mr. Hoover's friends tonight ad a definite pro mise of victory and were echoed amid eager questionings through the political camps of Mr. Hoov er's rivals. There were almost as many at tempts to read between the lines as when President Coolidge is sued his "I-do-not-choose" state ment last summer in the Black Hills. The supporters of Hoover saw In Mt. Mellon's assertion that "Mr. Hoover seems to come closest to the standards that we have set for this high office," a complete assurance that Pennsylvania's coveted block of 79 delegates the second largest in the conven tion would drop Into the Hoover bag at Kansas City. They did not hesitate to add that this removed all doubt of the result. Already the Hoover managers are claiming upwards of 600 in delegates al ready selected or definitely as sured, although these claims are hotly contradicted at many points by the opposition. It takes 545 to nominate. ' Those who have held away from Mr. Hoover were slow to com ment but some of them, including Senators Norris and Borah, pre dicted that what Mr. Mellon had said would go a long way toward nominating the commerce secre tary at Kansas City. Just returned from ft triumph over Hoover in the Indiana pri mary. Senator Watson at first de clined to comment for publication but later declared that "putting the various parts of the entire statement together I ronsjrue it to be in effect and endorsement of President Coolidge by Secretary Mellon and literally a request for his renominatlon. - "The significant feature of thr Mellon statement Is that he doe' not directly endorse the candidacy of Secretary Hoover. Doubtlesr if Secretary Mellon were unreserv edly for Herbert Hoover's nomln ation he would have said so In unequivocal terms and would have Insisted upon an endorsement of him by the delegation. The im portant feature of the entire trans action Is that Secretary Hoover sought the endorsement of the Pennsylvania delegation but did not get It." "Senator Borah of Idaho, whose state' has decided to vote for him at Kansas City said that 'If Mr. Mellon meant it. it means Hoov er's nomination.' ' "That is to say, if Pennsylvania is added to what Hoover at pres ent has it would seem to insure his nomination." Senator Norris of Nebraska who likewise has some delegate support in the west, said that the treasury secretary's words "seem to Indicate that he is for Secre tary Hoover." - "That wifl' go a long way to nominate Hoover." said Norris. probably it will do that." -- i . ... .
