New Tork, Jan. 9. Prohibition will

prediction by experts of the Interna

ers, who today issued an edict:
".Me.ke -them smaller end shallower

Commenting on the attitude of the
designers, Geo. w. Hermann, a mem
ber of the organization, said:
"It's illegal to tote a gun, it's un
handy to carry your handkerchief
there and you can't buy anything but
wood alcohol to put in your flask. So
the pocket just naturally will shrink

REINSTATEMENT
New York, Jan. 9. The executive
committee of the New York socialist
party today demanded that the assem
bly "re-enfranchise the thousands of
voters" of the state who voted the so
cialist ticket by immediately revoking
its "disgraceful and autocratic action"
in suspending five socialist assembly
men. In a statement i ssued after an ah
night session the committee declared
that the voters who sent the socialist
assemblymen to Albany asserted that
the socialist party Is not "Inimical to
the public welfare." Revocation of the
assembly's action was demanded In or
der that "a republican form of govern
ment, guaranteed to each state by the
federal constitution, be restored to peo
ple of New York," the statemen said.
Dismissal "Outrage."
"The state executive committe of the
socialist party views with astonishment
and indignation the action of the state
assembly In unseating the representa
tives of the socialist party. The action
of the assembly is the culmination of
a long series of outrages against consti
tutional rights and the best tiditions
of the nation."
The assembly resolution "proceeds
to deliberate falsehood when Its., as
serts that the socialist party urged the
people to refuse to engage in the pro
duction of munitions of war and other
necessities," the statement said.
"The , resolution of the assembly !n
a covert way is Intended to convict the
socialist party of the use of violence to
overthrow the government, implying
mat the violence accompanying the
revolution In Russia is desired and-fa-vored
by us here," the statement con
tinued. ' GUARANTEE TO POT
RAILWAYS ON FEET
Washington, Jan. 9. Continuation
of the standard, return to railroads

termination of federal control was
agreed upon todty by the senate and
house conferees on railroad legisla

accepted the Eoeh bill provision. The
Cummins bill would have limited the

Washington, Jan. 9. The memor
ial adopted by the national shipping
conference, opposing provisions of
pending railroad bills, was presented
to Chairmen Cummins and Esch of
the senate and house interstate com
merce committees today by Clifford
Thome of Chicago. Mr. Thome, head
of the legislative committee of the

form of a permanent guaranty in the
way of a definite percentage of re
turn as prescribed in the Cummins
bill; appropriation by the government
of surplus earnings; compulsory con
solidation of roads into a limited num

DEMOCRATS
RESULT OPPOSITE TREATY
VIEWS OF WILSON AND BRYAN,
BRYAN SAYS PARTY
CANNOT GO BEFORE
PEOPLE WITH PACT
(Associated Press Leased Wire)
Washington, v Jan. 9.- William J.
Bryan split openly with President
Wilson at the Jackson Day dinner
last night on the question of whether
the democratic party should make the
league of nations an issue at the next
election. .
The former secretary of state, three
times a candidate for the presidency
and a power in his party, declared
the democrats could not go before the
country on the Issue and that they
must accept such compromises as may
be possible.
Conceding the right of the repub
lican majority to dictate the senate's
course, Mr. Bryan' declared:
"Our plan has been rejected and
we must face the- situation as It Is.
We must either secure such compro
mises as may bef( possible or present
the issue to the country. The latter
course would mesn a delay of at
least fourteen months and then suc
cess only in cas of our securing a
two thirds majority of the senate. -
"We cannot afford, either aa citi
zens or as members of the . party to
share with the republican party re
sponsibility for further delay; we can
not go before the Country on the is
sue that such an appeal would be
present. A majority congress
can declare war. Shall we make it
more difficult to conclude a treaty
than to enter a war?"
Reviewing the present and survey
ing a program of the future, Mr. Bry
an said he ventured to suggest "three
new propositions." '
They were: A national system of
roads, extending in every state,, to be
known as "a. national peace way,"
both as a utilitarian project for bind
ing the states together in commerce
and. Intercourse, ,'r,i,a -atumoflal
as wen to uie sojmer aeaa.
A national bulletin not a newspa
per, Mr. Bryan declared to present
national Issues under bi-partisan con
trol. The initiative and referendum
which he declared the. democratic par
ty might well adopt as lis "new great
reform."
FINNISH PORT TO BE
IS PRESENT BELIEF
Stockholm, Jan. 9. The 249 unde
sirable deported from the United States
on the transport Kufurd, "the soviet
ark' 'probably will be landed at Hango,
Finland, and will proceed to Russia by
rail under a strong guard, it was said
here today.
The Finnish legation lacks official
Information but belief was expressed
there that no communication would be
allowed with those landing from the
Huford who will be furnished with suf
ficient food for the Journey by rail. The
harbor of Reval is frozen and the port
of Llbau Is believed improbable as a
landing place for the undesirables. The
Swedish authorities declare that those
deported from the United States will
not be allowed transit through Bweden.
Washington, Jan. 9. Allen radicals
deported on the army transport Bu
word, which now Is Hearing the Kiel
canal, will not be landed at Copen
hagen nor is it planned to send other
deportees from this country to the
Danish port. Anthony Caminetli, com
mlssioner general of immigration,
said today. lie still refused, however,
to say where the Buford would land.
Mr. Caminettl conferred today with
army officials presumably for deport
ing additional radicals to soviet Rus
sia. PREMIER SEE DANGER
Dublin. Thursday, Jan. 9. -Premier
Lloyd-George has put a "f?nKerou
weapon In the hands of declared ene
mies of the empire," In framing his
Irlxh home ryle bill, according to reso
lutions p.-tsxed by the executive com
mittee of the Irish Unionist party here
today. Recognition was given the fact
that the premier had made "an honest
endeavor to settle the Irish problem,
according to Knglith Ideas." but the
committe went on record as "feeling
boun!o inform him his proposals. In
stead of bringing peace and content
ment to Ireland, would still further ac
centuate and embitter present difficul
ties between different sections of the
Irinh people."
"The only way In which Ireland can

declared In an address before the
Washington Irrigation Institute this

While the water supply tor the pro
ject, as shown by government reo-
ords, is abundant, some of.it must u
stored In Pend Oreille lake In Idaho
and all of It must be diverted from
within the boundaries of thut statu, he
declared, jund about halt the impound
ed waternust be stored In Flathead
lake in Montana. The Indian service
has filed water rights upon t'lathead
lake for the Irrigation of Indian lands
The main line canal of the project
would be approximately 130 miles

have shown, and has been designed
to carry 20,000 culiic feet of water
per second. It would consiHt of 83.8
miles of tunnel, D 3.7 miles ot cumil,
and 49 3 miles, of lakes. All of the
lakes are to be artificial except 16.1
miles. They are Intended to care for

The committee of 15 named by
Governor Olcolt several months ago
to conduct an investigation into the
affairs of the state Industrial accident
commission is in session here today,
completing the Interviewing of wit

land attorney, had spread broadcast
throughout the state numerous alle
gations as to the mismanagement of
the communion's affairs.
In the course of the formal hearing
held here at the opening of the In

that Keeley was in the employ of an
insurance company which sought to
discredit the state commission In an
effort to overthrow the workmen's

TO SAVE TREATY
Washington, Jan. 9. A lettar from
President Lowell of Harvard, urging
that democratic senator should "not
stahd'too firmly" uKninst a vaaarva-
tion to article ten of the league ot
nations covenant, was made public
today by Senator Walsh, democrat,
Massachusetts.
Although in the past an advocate
of unreserved ratification, President
Lowell wrote that If artlcla ton was
a stumbling block to a compromise,
the administration might well ctn

of the covenant In preventing wars
seemed to rest In the economla boy
