POST CHARGED WITH BLOCKING DEPORTATIONS Illegal actions by assistant secre tary of labor department alleged. 300 CASES ARE PRESENTED i rji i ii wm -l 1 Siegel charges Post with bringing law into disrepute, EVIDENCE NOT REVIEWED, CUDS Johnson charges as many as 100 cases were called in one dsy in order to give releases. By the Associated Prsss. Washington, D. C.

April 27. II legal actions of Louis F. Post, assistant secretary of th department of labor, resulted In lug denta tion of alien radicals, member of the house declared today befor the rules committee. "The responsibility lie at th door of Secretary Wilson for not recom mending removal of such a man, it these are true," Representative Rodenberg, Republican, of Illinois, a member th committee, de clared during the hearing which open ed the investigation of Mr. Post's of ficial conduct.

Representative Johnson, Republican, of Washington, chairman of the house immigration committee, presented a report by committee investigators on more than 300 cases, in which It was said Mr. Post had cancelled or stayed deportations recommended by Immi gration authorities. Counsel for Mr. Post Interrupted to assert that Commissioner General Caminetti of the immigration bureau, was without legal authority to make any recommendations on deportation warrant. Representative Siegel, Republican, of New York, accused Mr.

Post of bringing the deportation law Into disrepute and making deportation pro ceedings a farce and a joke. He added that there had been many plain viola tions of the law, but Representative Tlncher, Republican, of Kansas, an other witness, declared fe doubted whether Mr. Post had violated the law, although he contended that the assis tant secretary had unquestionably abused his discretionary authority. Thirty-eight cases were cited by Representative Republican, of Kansas, author of the resolution that led to the investigation. In which Mr.

Post wa alleged to have released mc- cused agitators without awaiting to review the evidence on which the charges were predicated With Mr. Johnson, Hoch also charged that Mr. Poet, for a time, accepted a decision of Secretary Wilson that mere mem bership in the Communist party was sufficient ground for deportation, but that later Post changed his mind and did not follow this ruling. Sirs Johnson -charged jtn tlon that Mr. Post called for as Ttmny as 100 cases a day in order to release accused aliens.

While the Hoch resolution looks to a possible Impeachment proceedings against Mr. Post, Republican leaders plan for a complete preliminary inquiry by the rules committee and' In event of an adverse finding to propose a resolution calling for Mr. Poet's re moval, Brahmans said to be cause of the' unrest in India. J. L.

Campbell in the Christian Herald, "T-The 'sertonsnesif Tof leal unrest In India has been greater than Is generally supposed. Many believe that If the government had not taken the matter up with a firm hand, as the Amrltsar affair last April, there might have broken out another mutiny somewhat like that of 1857-8. The causes for this unrest are various. German intrigue, Bolshevism, the high cost of living, the great ex citement among the 60,000,000 or of. Mohammedans lest Great Britain should consent to the dismem berment of the Turkish empire, are all Important factors.

But most of ail, this seditious spirit Is among the Brahmans. Education Is spreading In India. The depressed classes are rising. The Brahmans see that their Influence is on the wane, and tbey are prepared to put forth one last deeper-at effort to retain their power. Th Sudras, the greatest middle class, are loyal and never more contented with British rule than now.

The rule of Great Britain In India has been of untold blessing. The last census in that country gave 147 languages to its 315,000,000,. of people. From Britain it has received a stable government for Its mixed population. It ha an excellent postab system.

courts of ustlc have been founded where Brahman or Pariah ha his rights equally defended. Industries have sprung up, while the taxes are lighter than In any other civilised country. Were Britain to withdraw from In dia, war would break out between the two opposing factions of Hindoos and MntiammAdHn, an1 th rnnnlry with Its castes and the classes would soon sink Into a chaos worse than Russia. Amundsen on way to Nome. Washington, D.

April 27. Roald Amundsen, who set out two years ago In an effort to reach the north pole, is returning to Nome, Alaska, according to a message received by the navy radio station at Cordova, Alaska, today, from Anadyr, Siberia. He will proceed to Seville. Entirely new theory on structure of matter presented at meeting. EXPLAINS USE.OF ROCKETS Dr.

Goddard tella of their use In exploring far reaches of the air. "-Ifrlhe iasoaated' PrsT Washlmton. a April 57. An entirely, new theory of structure of matter was presented today at the coB-cluding session of the anuai gain erinc of the National Academy of Sciences by Dr. Irving Langmulr of the General Electric comoany researcn laboratory.

Exnlaininar that his con clusions lead to the new conception of energy, force, time, space, magnetism and all the general properties of matter Dr. Langmulr asserted that space and time have a structure analogous to that of matter. Heretofore, the speaker said, the usual conception of the relative order of the components of matter has been atoms, electrons, molecules and parti' cles. His observations add a new even than Ah Atom, which he has named the quantel. It consists of two parts, said, positive and nega tive, present everywhere In space mov ing in all directions with the velocity of light and capable of passing through matter.

Tbey constitute, he added, what has heretofore been known as' thtf iether if spacer and eausse att the phenomena of light, electricity, mass and energy, "The structure of everything that Is can be built up out of this conception of the quantel," Dr. Langmulr said. The theory explains all of the mysterious relationships heretofore known to exist between spectral lines, he asserted, predicting that It would lead to the discovery of many new relationships. His observatlona also demonstrated a new principle of reversibility, Dr. Langmulr declared, that leads to the deduction that light proceeds In straight lines from atoms, that It does not rsdtate, but proceeds from each atom to a fixed objective.

An official of the academy In attempting to explain the nature of Dr. Langmuir'a work said that he was a philosopher on the nature of the Atom and the inner constitution of bodies. now in the midst of experiments in volving the fundamental general theory of everything Jn the universe. Dr. Langmuir's theory, which other members of the academy admitted was over their heads, was based, he said, on the theories of several other scientists.

Dr. Langmulr added that he had already gone far enough with his experiments, to derive the most fundamen tal mathematical formula and to see. by what was to him a simple process, a development that would help to explain all the phenomena relating to the properties of matter. His experiments were predicated on the Einstein special theory of relativity. Dr.

Langmulr said. Much Interest ws manifested today in Dr. R. H. Ooddard's elaboration of his theory concerning the use of multiple charge, high efficiency rockets tn exploring far reaches of the air and its application to weather forecasting.

Dr. Goddard declared It would be possible to project meterorologlcal Instruments -to a height of a little over six miles in the air this way and record pressure, temperature, wind velocity and moisture content for the purpose of predicting surface weather conditions many miles distant. A number of such observations by rocket, taken simultaneously at widely separated points, would make possible the operation of a great weather map representing conditions at a definite high elevation comparable with surface conditions, which would be Money ready to send Canadian representative to Washington. Ottawa, April 27. An appropriation of $80,000 for the expenses of the proposed Canadian representative at Washington, Is provided in government estimates, it was stated in official circles her today.

It was an insult to every of peer and man In the navy or who serv ed in the navy during the war.

"It has been or will be entirely dis proved," he declared The charge that the department had no plans tor war also was unfounded. the officer said. He added that one plan In particular had been In existence for years before the war and was corrected up to the time the United States Joined the Allies and constantly Changed as the situation altered during the war. The plan was not perfect, he said, because of new elements injected into the war by the German submarine campaign Captain Pratt, in answer to Senator Trammel, who sought to show that Ad mlral Sims's letter to Secretary Daniels entitled.

Washington. D. C. April 17. Joba LInd, former governor of Minnesota, described today to th senat commute investigating Mexican affair his efforts aa a special emissary of President Wilson to get the late Vktoriano Huerta to abdicate his power dictator in Mexico and allow a new government to be set up ther In 191S.

Mr. Llnd refused to detail conversa tions with th Mexican chief or Instruction given him by the President except as they wer outlined In printed memoranda which submitted. My object, according to my In structions, was to bring about an adjustment between the contending powers." he said, "so that th country could hav peace, and a facto government he set up which the I'nltcd States could recognise." "That Involved the elimination of Huerta, did It not?" he was asked. Som asked recognition, "Not necessarily," Mr. Llnd re sponded- He referred to President Wilson' memorandum published at the time, which suggested a general armistice and th conduct of an lection at which Huerta would not be a candidate.

American financial aid for Mexico was promised. wanted to get a free and fair election," Mr. Llnd continued', "Huerta rejected all propositions, declaring that the Car-rania force were rebels and should be treated as such." Americans th Mexico at the aid, wanted Huerta recognised. Those engaged In agriculture, he added, desired intervention by the United States while the American mining interests In the north were against it. Driven like slaves.

"Though I'll admit that the strug gle for power among a few is to some extent the cause- of Latin-American disorganisation," Mr. Llnd. said, "the primary causes, it seems to me, are social and economic. In the tropical plantations owned by Americans, 1 saw men working almost as slaves, guarded by men with revolver and whips and locked up at night. The mines in the north and commercial enterprises, of course, are carried on in a different fashion." JUon'tfjou think.

"I studied all sources of Informa tion. Not any one exclusively." City libraries can be a help to country folk. Few city libraries have as msny country book borrowers as they should, says the United States depart ment of agriculture, but the free pub lic library at Stockton, is a pleasant exception to the rule.

Not only does it send out traveling libraries to communities and school districts, but It also encourages the country people to make direct use of the main library. Aside from the liberal policy of tbe trustees of the Stockton library, its central location and the good roads leading to the city have been big assets in the building up of the large country circulation. There are now, 30 communities and school districts that are receiving county free library service from Stockton, but the main library has a direct country circulation of 6,281 volumes. The large Collection of books at the main library is attractive to country book borrowers. Another Incentive to country read er has been the co-operation between the farm adviser and the home-demonstration agent and the county li brarian.

These extension workers, sent out by the United State department of agriculture and the state agricultural college, make arrangements with the library authorities to for ward books on fly control, clothing, nd study- food -to h-soimunM where these subjects hsv been la-cussed at the centers and where are to be county-wide prolesta for the coming year.
