New York.—A modern committee
of vigilantes Wednesday announced
its strategy against organized crime
and for more efficient administra-
tion of justice in New York City.
Unlike its counterpart in the days
of the West’s lusty infancy, this Citi-
zen’* Committee on the .Control of
Paris, April 28. — The French
Government proposed Wednesday to
take over control of the Nation’s
debt-burdened railroads and put
them back on a sound basis by boost-
ing freight rate* from 10 to 15 per
intest to see who can
the fanciest suit at the coro-
nation. , i V1 | • >
He was plenty sore at ship news re-
porters, who gathered around and
asked him about the coat and pants
and ostrich-feather hat he had in-
vented for himself. His yoke sound-
ed like be had just found a speck of
rust in the rifle bam! of the buck
private in the rear rank.
"The uniform I had made is a mod-
’ a Brigadier General’s
uniform 1 wore twenty years ago,’’
he said. “It is deep blue in color
und with it I wear a plumed cocked
hat. It’s all regulation. The only
changes 1 made in it were changes in
insignia denoting rank."
"Do you wear knee pants with it,
General?” asked a young reporter.
' The General charged the young re-
porter who retreated in disorder to-
ward the ship’s rail with Pershing
harrying both flunks.
“Young man,1’ roared the General
as soon as he came within bayonet
distance, "you ought to go to a CCC
camp and learn something about uni-
forms.”
Just then an armistice was reach-
ed between reporters and the Gen-
eral, but the biggest battle was
ihead. A Sergeant cleared a path
for Pershing through a swann of
photographers.
“Knock ’em down If they get in
your way," the Caroniander-m-Chief
ordered the Sergeant.
The photographers outflanked the
Pershing forces and got him corner-
ed. Flash bulbs began to pop, but
the General’s jaw set itself into a
grim line. Then one of the bulbs
broke, spraying the General with
small particles of glass. He stood
hl« ground, flipping glass off his
coat lapel.
The General’s outfit is supposed
to be a knee-length, high-collar coat,
decorated with gold oak leaves, stars
nnd epaulets. The full length trou-
sers have two gold stripes running
down each leg. Over the right shoul-
der of the eoat is a wide buff sash.
Patent leather shoes and the oetrich-
plumed hat complete the costume.
Another official American dele-
gate to the coronation who sailed was
Admiral Hugh Rodman, U.S.N., re-
tired. The same young reporter
sauntered up to him and aaked: "Are
you going to wear knee pants, Ad-
miral?”
“No,” Rodman said, a dreamy look
in his eye. “I'm going to wear pink
undies.”
Finance Minister Vincent Auriol
told the Finance Committee of the
Crime in New York will co-operate
with the police and the District At-
torney's office.
The committee, with many promi-
nent names on its list, had its incep-
tion in the presentment to Supreme
Court Justice Philip J. McCook by

He suggested that the Government

Austin. April 28.—Sponsors for a

Bills for a structure were intro-

The need for *uch a building has
been urgud for years by officials
familiar with crowded conditions in

State is paying about $50,000 a year
in office rent.
It has been suggested the State
might issue bonds and pay them
off with the money saved from ren-
tals, but issue of such bond* without
a constitutional amendment is pro-
hibited by law.
“The office building will have to
