Constitutionality
Dry Law.

Barres caught he ball in his
stride and dashedstraight ahead
over the goal lne.-
The officials evidently overlooked
rule six. governig the kick-off, for
without a question the touchdown
was allowed and placed in position
for the try for extra point, which
was quickly added by Sullivan's toe.
Rule six says: "If the ball is re-
covered by a player of the receiving
team before it is declared dead, he
may run with it, pass it backwards
or kick it: if the ball is recovered
by a player of the kicking team the
ball is dead at the point of re-
covery."
Walter . Okeson, commissioner,
of the Eastern association for selec-
tion of football officials. was asked'
by the Associated Press for an opin-
ion on the play. Commissioner Oke-
son replied:
'Rule six says that if the kicking
team recovers the ball on a kick-
off it is dead at the point of re-
covery and in a supplementary note
it is stated that after a kick-off"
the ball is to be considered a kicked
ball until it is declared dead; there-
fore the kicking team may not run
with the ball if recovered on a'
kick-off."
Captain Maffett of Georgia made
no protest to Referee W. T. Hallor-
an so far as could be observed from'
the stands. So perhaps, he, too, had
forgotten the rules against running
with a fumbled ball. Or he might
have been more confident than his
team's supporters that the Geor-
gians would score two touchdowns
later in the afternoon, the last and
deciding one in tthe last few min-
utes of play.

SEEKS SEAT IN SENATE
NEWARK. N. J., Oct. 13. -Dwight
W. Morrow. opening his campaign
for election to the United States
Seiate on the Republican ticket
reiterated tonight his advocacy of
repeal of the Eighteenth Amend-
ment and eliminated himself as a
candidate for the presidency in
1932.
Seaking from ine same platform
where five months ago he first ex-
pressed himself in favor of repeal
and a return of state control of
liquor traffic, he repeated that view,
commended warmly President Hoo-
ver, and the national administra-
tion. and concluded:
"I look forward with pleasure and
confidence to the opportunity of
voting two years from now for the
renomination and re-election of
President hmover.-
The Senate non'.nce said it was
idle for any Republican to contend
the United States was not passing
through a period of depression, a
period when subtantial unemploy-
ment exists. Mere ivbecause I an
a candidate for publc office," he
said. "I do not for one moment
underestimate the sufferings that
hard times Ang to many people
whose margin of saving has been
small."
"Rather I want- to recognize
frankly the situation that exists.
and to do what I can to assist both
public and private agencies which
are trying to remedy the difficul-
ties."
Mr. Morrow is a candidate both
for the full senatorial term of six
;ears and for the unexired term
of Walter E. Edee. who resigned to
become antbassador to Frane. His
opponents are Alexander Simpson
for the long tern and Thelma
Parkinson for the short ternm. The
Repubican nominee had been men-
tioned. after the primary, in which
he won from three opponents by a
plurality of almost 400,000 votes as
a presidential possibility, partly be-
cause of his outspoken declaration
for prohibition repeal.

BOTH ARE SENTENCED
WASHINGTON, Oct. 13.-An at-
tack on the constitutionality of the
Jones law. under which a violator
of the Volstead Act can be sent to
prison for five 3ears and fined S10,-
000, failed today before the Supreme
Court.
The suit came from Missouri. Two
St. Joseph residents, Hugh Mc-
Elgogue and William J. Brown.
challenged the statute under which
McElgogue was sentenced to the
penitentiary for a year and Brown
four years.
As is customary, the court in re-
fusing to pass upon the constitu-
tionality of the drastic dry law,
gave no explanation. The question
of the constitutionality of the Jones
Act was not raised. however, in the
United States district court where
the cases were first tried
The challenge to the statute was
made on appeal to the eighth cir-
cuit court of appeals. Those famil-
iar with Supreme Court procedure
pointed out that in such circum-
stances the tribunal generally de-
cides that a question of constitu-
tionality has not been properly pre-
sented.
Denial of the petitions for re-
view does not preclude the court at
some future day from passing upon
the constitutionality of the statute.
Another legal attack on the con-
viction under the Jones law also
failed today before the court. Frank
Ross was convicted of violating the
liquor laws at the Viaduct club, Elm
Grove, near Wheeling, W. Va., and
was sentenced to two years in At-
lanta. At the court's last term he
asked a review, arguing that the vi-
olation of which he had been con-
victed should be treated as a mis-
demeanor. His plea was refused and
today his request for a rehearing
was denied.

Declares World-wide Business
Depression Had Origin
:n United States.
CONDEMNS TARIFF LAWS
Presidential Nominee in 1920
Blames Administration
for Depression.
WASHINGTON. Oct. 12.--James
M. Cox. Democratic presidential
nominee in 1920, said in a radio
address tonight that the world-
wide business depression started in
the United States "and the dread-
ful thing about it is that it could
have been avoided."
Speaking over t h e National
Broadcasting chain. Cox said that
the Hoover administration "en-
couraged gambling hysteria" pre-
ceding the stock market "crash"
and that it "then forced upon an
unwilling people the tariff law
which later accentuated the de-
pression."
"We must not lose sight of the
impressive fact." he asserted, :that.
our tariff changes were initiated
when our country was living in un-
precedented prosperity. When the
president signed the now famous
bill in the face of the most rep-
resentative. far-spread and appeal-
ing memorial ever addressed to an
executive, he gave furtherance to
the ills borne of his failure to act
in the face of an inevitable crash
in our stock market.
Blames Over Production
"What is the answer to all this
from Washington?" Cox continued.
"The statement comes that busi-
ness depression is everywhere, and
that not only are the conditions
of unemployment alike in all coun-
tries, but it arises from a common
cause, over-production.
"There is no over-production in
the sense that the president speaks
of it. There is a shortage in the
buying power. If the world were
purchasing normally we would be
manufacturing normally and we
would if we were employed.
"We were the industrial giants
of the earth, the great creditor na-
tion, and we were producing one-
third of all the products of the
globe and buying from other na-,
tions, thus establishing an econo-
mic balance that would have con-
tinued had we' acted wisely.
"When giant America was pros-.
trated she curtailed her purchase,
abroad. This occasioned unem-
ployment there and further dimin-
ished the purchasing power. It is
significant that this thing did not:
start anywhere except in America.'
Attacks Government
Discussing the stock market de-
pression, Cox said the preceding
"hysteria" and the wild dreams of;
fortune were the direct consequen-
ces of administration propaganda.
'The government had the power
of restrain," he added, "but did not
exercise it. The president and his
advisors either lost their heads or
they had become so indoctrinated
with the theory that the stock tape
is a certain index to our economic
state, that they were, no doubt, no
less shocked than the rest of the
country when the diaster came."

The activities of the police ob-
viously were handicapped by the
need of concentrating a strong force
around the Reichstag. It was while
almost the entire police force was
quelling the Tiergarten riot that the
fascists broke loose in the shopping
district. Trouble had been antici-
pated in view of the open hositilities
toward the government expressed
during court testimony by Adolf
Hitler, leader of the Fascist party,
recently at Leipsig, and the opposi-
tion of the communists to the Re-
publican fiscal program.
