speeches by “working my way

over now wornout issues.
Martin called Stuart a “wolf in

previous statements concerning
his opponent's alleged oil promo-

"The only issue in this cam-

"The only Issue in this cam-

Marshall Ferdinand Foch,
former generalissimo of the Al-
lied armies in France, spoke
these words deliberately and
quietly, but none the less
dramatically. And though his

the eyes of an eagle, and of a

He was recalling the Allid
French and Americar offensive
on the 40-mile front from Fon-
teboy to Chateau Thierry,
which was begun back on July
18, 1918, and which pushed all
the German troops beyond the
Marne, by the 20th.
"This anniversary is worthy
of profound reflection,” he
went on, “because the move-
ment always will be ■ associated
with this date. The Germans
had opened a breach and Paris
once again was threatened
when in this grave hour Ameri-
can forces, fresh and full, of
fight for freedom, came to the
aid of their worn-out comrades.
Together we put forth a mighty
effort, with the will to win and
the capacity for sacrifice. In
our struggle, we forged bonds
of friendship which must never
be broken. It is happy for us
to recall these bonds.”
Difficult it is to belief that
Foch is 76 years old. He stands
straight. His movements are
quick and decisive. There is
vigor to his body, and keenness
to his mind.
"In those days we had one
supreme object — victory,” be
continued. “To fortify us we
had a splendid spirit of com-

At a little inn of San Angel,

Tuesday with friends’ A young
man, a caricaturist, approached
Obregon's table with a cartoon
of the man who was to have suc-

chief executive of the southern
republic. Suddenly five shots
were fired and Obregon slumped
over the table while his friends
seized the cartoonist-assassin,
one Jose de Leon Toral. Ques-
tioned for motive, Toral said:
“It was a mandate of Christ the
King, that the laws of his relig-
ion should reign over Mexico.”
A firing squad undoubtedly will

WASHINGTON, July 21.—Ap-
proximately twelve billion dollars
—a sum fir larger than the pres-
ent worth of all the European war
debts to the Unitd States—is at
stake in the valuation controversy
between the Interstate Commerce
Commission and the railroads of
the country now pending in the
U. S. Supreme Court, according
to estimates just prepared by I.
C. C. workers to present to the
high court.
If the Supreme Court sustains
the valuation contention of the
railroads, the Interstate Com-
merce Commission estimates in-
dicate that the total valuation
of the railroads of the- country
will be approximately 36 billion
dollars, while if the commisslon’s
valuation plan 1* approved the
total will be approximately 23
billion dollar*.
Increase is Feared.
The railroads of the country
are at present authorized by law
to charge rates to yield 6 % per
cent on the valuation of their
properties. If they secure Su-
preme Court approval of a valu-
ation of 36 billion dollars they
will be authorized to increase
rates by over half a billion dol-
lars annually.
The Interstate Commerce Com-
mission valuation contention is
that the railroads should be re-
quired to base their rates on a
total representing the approxi-
' mate investment ‘in railroad
property. The railroads contsnd
that they are entitled to base
their rates on what it would
cost to replace the railroad
property at present prices.
Arguments Amassed.
A case involving this issue is
scheduled for argument before'
the Supreme Court at its next
term, and the Interstate Com-
I merce Commission, as well as
batteries of railroad lawyers, are
at present engaged in amassing
arguments on both sides of the
i controversy.
Supreme Court approval of
। the plan of valuation advocated
by the railroads would virtually
J destroy the Interstate Commerce
! Commission’s authority over
1 rstes, according to some repre-
1 sentatives of the commission.
; They assert that the railroad*.
If allowed a valuation of 36 bil-
lion dollar*, would be legally en-
I titled to charge rate* higher than
the traffic would stand, and so
the effectiveness of commission
regulation would be largely
eliminated.
I have practiced law in Fort
Worth continuously for 14
years, since my graduation
from the State University.
Partisanship in politics has
no place in the trial of' civil
cases. My political views,
therefore, can be of little In-

"Our comradeship extended
from the highest in command
to the newest recruit. It si-
lenced all personal views and
preferences. The common wel-
fare was supreme with us in all
emrgencies. The rule of con-
duct of government chiefs and
soldiers in the field was to
agree at all costs.
“Friendships between the al-
lied peoples before the period
of bloodshed became, during
hostilities, the most living and
enduring of realities. It was
this union, at the price of the
greatest effort and sacrifice,
and by pooling the resources of
our various countries that en-
abled us to command the means
and to summon the strength
, to reach the ultimate goal."
Difficulties Today,
Though Foch speaks directly
and simply, one senses great re-
serve. It is well known that at
times he is taciturn and diffi-
cult to approach. Naturally an
amazing ability to concentrate
is one of his characteristics.
"Today”—be brought him-
self back to the present—"we
encounter difficulties similar to
those we bad to face during the
war. The same conditions at-
tend our efforts, whether it is a
question of an offensive with
victory in view, or a movement
to promote the peace of the
world. So let us not forget on
this memorable anniversary,
