SURLE PLEADS IN SOCIALIST SUSPENSION NOT GUILTY IN COURT Sweet Goes Coolidge One Better; Adler, Clothing Manufacturer, Sore on Account of Strike. Man Charged With Attempting to Secure Automobile With Bogus Check Arraigned Before Lynch. (By the Federated Press.) New York, (By Mail)—Nothing in the political history of the empire state has produced stirred men and women in every walk of life as has the contemptible attack on five socialist assemblymen from greater New York. The following interesting facts have been given prominence in the kept press of New York: 1. That Speaker Thaddeus Sweet who is himself also largely responsible for this temporary suspension of these socialist members, was an aspirant for the governorship, having studied judicial proceedings in Massachusetts, where Gov. Calvin Coolidge triumphed at the polls. This strong-man, law-and-order philosopher, he of the golden rule, who felt certain that if Coolidge could do one better, he will easily win the nomination and election. 2. That Speaker Sweet is also a multi-millionaire woolen and cloth manufacturer attacked by the socialists in his own district with particular vehemence. Their scathing attacks still rankle, it appears, in his mind. 3. That Simon L. Adler, republican floor leader, who acted as first lieutenant to Sweet in the orgy of d'etat, is a member of the wealthy clothing firm of Adler and Bros., who are also expended assemblymen from Buffalo in the attack on behalf of the manufacturers of America in their struggle to secure lower wages and longer conditions for the workers in Adler's constituency. As a result that Simon Adler and his brother had to yield. 4. That the New York World, who had already sworn to uphold the constitution, had to be thrown aside when being sworn in, and had, in fact already failed to do so. The speaker of the assembly was then called to the speaker's rostrum and suspended. Party lines have been forgotten in the seething antagonism of the incident. Republican Hughes takes up the cudgels for the two democrats' organ, The New York World, raises his voice in behalf of Democrats. William D. Culbison, law partner of Elihu Root, leader of the New York Bar, cries out association for justice in this case. ### AMERICANIZATION AND CHILD WELFARE TOPICS Mrs. Joanna Grigg read an excellent paper on "Child Welfare" at the meeting of the Woman's Civic Christian Temperance union Friday afternoon.
