The managers suggested arbitra

Very little publicity was given to

GERMANS INTERNED JUMP

liberty was quickly observed and
eight of them were taken fron’
the cold water and are now in thf

Chort are believed to have been
drowned. All were well supplied
with money and carried the address
the large* vote which Wilson got was
got by reason oi the Adamson bill
and his part in driving it through
Congress.
As the day tor the 'nauguration j
of the law came nigh suits were
filed asking the United States couits
to enjoin the government from en
forcing the Adamson law because
said law was unconstitutional. The
Court heard both sides, and in order

upholding the bill and throwing the
onus of the appeal upon the rail

the recognized class bias of the

of his lower court except as a
means of protracting litigation.
The Supreme Court heard the ar

unlike Hook they were in no rush.

It is manifest that the position of
