A young man put on his blue coat but forgot his pass in the pocket of the other oue.

He claims that all newspaper statements to the contrary are in error upon this point. Nevertheless the point is a new one here. The constitution and the by-laws of the new organisation are1 not yet forthcoming to the puolic.
