RELATIONS OF ANGLO-FRENCH READY TO SNAP German Indemnity, Russian Attitude and Turkish Territory Estrangement Issues. POINCARE HAND PA RfS. Nov. 24.—Despite reassuring official statements from both sides, Anglo-French relations are again strained to a degree unequalled since the war, and leading French statesmen and writers are making no attempt to conceal their feelings toward the English 'government. The three chief Issues in the estrangement of the two countries are German indemnity, the allied attitude toward soviet Russia and the disposition of Turkish territory. Former President Folneare. in an open letter, declares that If England continues to urge-France to further revisions of the treaty of Versailles In favor of German, England herself should retnrn the surrendered German fleet and the former German colonies. M. Poincare's letter was addressed to an English editor who had asked him to use his Influence to obtain for Germany an amelioration of the treaty terms. The former president charges that the English are taking advantage of the election result In America and American opposition to the League of Nations to ask France to yield on some of the principal points of the treaty. DIVERGENCE GROWS RAPIDLY. Raymond Recouly, author and friend of Marshal Foeh, also Indicts England. The gravest fact, he says. Is that the divergence between the two leading allied powers has been growing wider during the past few months. M. Reoouly recalls that England, aided by President Wilson, blocked France’s plan for a military frontier on the Rhine and substituted the Anglo-France-Amer-lean defensive treaty, which proved worthless beer use the United States never satified It. Then, charges M. Recouly, over the protests of ex-Premter Clemenceau. President Wilson and Premier Lloyd-George forced a plebesclte In upper Silesia Instead of attributing the territory to Poland. ENGLISH PI'LL STRINGS AT CONSTANTINOPLE “England did not send a single soldier to maintain order In the plebeacite tone," ■ays M. Recouly. “This task was assumed by a French division aided by a small contingent of Italians. In Syria, British agents and officers hare done everything possible to make the French mission more difficult. At Constantinople the English reign supreme. They have organized a government of puppets and pull the airings. Everything that is suspected of favor-ng French Influence la discarded.’* Both the ilatin and Echo de Paris have printed bitter attacks against Premier Lloyd George. Several prominent French Journals have shown a spirit of reta.ia tlou by supporting the. Sinn Fein cause.

CITES CURE FOR WORLD UNREST Nashville Minister Asks More of Spirit of Paul. “Have yon ever given as much to the church aa you hare speat oa a motor car? Have you ever given so much that It hurt? Have jpm ever given what you needed?" asked *ol* J;i%fieS I. Vance of Nashville, Tena.. It a;, noon address at Keith's Theater: - “The payment that counts Is the payment that costs. “If this poor, troubled world Is to be saved from the chaos which It it verging on. If the Industrial unrest which threatens the very foundations of Its civilisation shall be ended, some men and women Inspired with the passion of the Prescher Paul must be found who will be more than willing, who will be glad to sacrifice. “Enthusiasm,” declared Dr. Vance, “means filled with God, desirous of doing His will and carrying out nis commandments.” "Is the man,” he asked, "who plans his life according to God, lacking in practical business sense? I do not think so. The true object of lift is not getting all you can out of life but in putting in all you can. Is that kind of a man silly who does not see. how much money he can leave when tie dies, but sees bow much he can do for civilization by the time he dies?” Dr. Vance declared that the motto taken by the man or woman who Is trying to live the right kind of life should be “not whst I own, but what I owe, In the world." “The civilized barbarians In a church are those who were willing to contribute their church dues and for home missions but are not willing to send anything to foreign missions. This Is an obligation of yours as well as supporting your family, If you are a man; of taking care of your home. If you are a woman.” “We have no more right to be selfish than Paul, who felt that be had certain rights, but felt that he had no right to be selfish.” “You may be sure that If you have anything that God will get after you, and If you shirk yonr obligations you will have to reckon for It.”

Given Half Interest in Property by Court Judge Linn D Hay of Snperior Court, room 2, today held that William F. Christian was entitled to one-half Interest In a former roadhouse near the fair ground, which was known as the Christian Roadheuse. Christian, following the death of his father, filed suit in the Snperior Court against Mrs. Maggie Christian, wife of his father, asking that he be given clear title to the roadhouse site which had been sold to the Lake Erie Railroad. The evidence showed that the father, prior to his death, had Illegally transferred the Interest of his son to his wife Judge Hay held that the court would take no steps to modify the sale of the site to the railroad, but that the plaintiff was entitled to one-hslf of the money obtained by Mrs. Christian from the sale of the property. Attorney Emsley Johnson, representing Christian, stated hia client would abide by the decision of the court. Pennsylvania Man Lodged in Jail Here Mike A.

I just want them to leave me alone and I will be happy with my baby and my husband.” While Mrs. Houston was speaking Edward, whose third birthday Is being observed at the Houston home, romped happily with hls new possession—a dog. “When Edward was In Bloomington he bad a dog called Billie, and since he has been here ho haa often spoken of the dog he left there,” .“aid Mr. Houtson, stepfather of Edward. “So I went uptown and bought the boy another dog.” Edward and bis new•• Billie,” whose correct name Is Fannie, romped playfully arohnd the room. A little white bed occupies a place very closo to a big bed. “I could not give Elward up now,” arid Mrs. Houston softly. “And I love him as if he was my own child,” said Mr. Houston with pride. “! do not like to get into the courts, but what kind of a .man .would I be If I did not aid my wife to retain her son?” Houston, who said he la a machinist by trade, served for more than a year with the American Army In France, and on returning to this country established a little home on Blaine avenue. Mrs. Houston denies that she unlawfully seized her son and took him away from Mrs. Arnold's home at Bloomington. "My mother sent me Edward’s toys, his blocks, a wooden horse and other playthings dear-to the heart of any child,” explained Mrs. Houston. “The last time Edw-ard was brought to use by my brother and sister.” Mrs. Arnold. In her petition for a writ of habeas corpns. claims that she bad had the custody of the child for about three years and that she has become greatly attached to Edward, who Is a splendid exampl of a healthy, vigorous boy. The petitioner alleges that the defendants “unlawfully seized the person of the child.” Mr. Houston explained that the trouble Is caused by Mrs. Arnold's animosity toward him and their inability to get along together. “I am sure that a mother has the first claim on her own child,” said Mrs. Houston. "I am happy now. Look at the boy." Edward, tbe Thanksgiving baby, was •happily engaged In building a castle >eut of bis blocks, but the tall of Fannie ruined the lad's dream of a big castle.

Vivianl of France, Tit ton) of Italy and Balfour of Great Britain, usually at the forefront in any discussion bearing on the Germans, took no part in the debate. in an Interview today, Millen decla red: “It was necessary to call a showdown on Germany’s impudence. Berlin was Insptred by two motives in sending that Impertinent note, threatening she would no longer consider herself bound by the colom.es clause of the treaty. "She hoped to gain a disruption of the league and disagreements among league members. Then she hoped to obtain postponement of distribution of mandates un- • til she becomes a member of the league, ! qualifies as a mandatory power herself j and thus again obtains control of her former colonies. “Australia will Insist on a distribution of mandates as previously agreed on We are opposed to giving Germany the slightest consideration. It is none of Berlin's business how the mandates are handled. Her rights to the territories were sacrificed forever. Whether the supreme council or the league is entitled to dispose of them is purely a technical matter, as between the allies and the league.” Milieu declared he Intended to demand today that Germany’s tactics “be exposed.” He expected full support from France and Belgium. The assembly practically decided yesterday to await the new admlnlstration in the United States before attempting amendments to the covenant.

WELSBACH CO. AGAIN WARNED City Will Cancel Contract if Lights Not Kept Up. The board of public works today threatened to cancel the contract of the Welsbach Street Lighting Company of America for the care and operation of gas street lights in Indianapolis unless the lights are Inspected and cleaned oftencr. The threat was contained in a letter which the board ordered Clerk William Cleary to write to A. R. Golln, local superintendent for the Welabaeh Company. It was made after Board Member Thomas A. Riley demanded that the contract be cancelled forthwith because the company has failed to heed repeated warnings of the board to keep the lights in better condition. The Welsbacb Company has a contract with the city to maintain the gas lamp standards, globes, mantles, etc., from Dec. 20, IPIB, to Dec. 20. 1921. The company receives $14.32 per year, per lamp, for the service. When the contract was made there were 7SI such lamps. Additions have Increased the number to 1,056. The city has an option on the additional standards when Iho contract expires. Mr. ItUey said he was moved to—flemaud the cancellation of the contract, particularly by the condition of the lumps in Massachusetts avenue northeast of Tenth street. “They look ltke they had never been touched since tbe day they were installed," be said. “The globes are iir,7 snd the mantles fallen so that they give out a weak, entirely Insufficient light. Under the contract the WelsbaeiJ Company agrees to make Inspections and clean every lamp at least once every leu days, but I'll venture to say there are ioni In the city that have never been touched since they were put up. ‘The whole trouble Is that the Weistach Company la trying to get along too cheaply. Not enough Inspectors are hired to come near making the inspections and repairs required by the contract. “We've reported this condition to tbe superintendent time ufter time and got no results.'’ The board confirmed resolutions for the vacation of the first alley north of Walnut street from Illinois to Pierson streets, and for the vacation of Harmon street from McCarthy to Norwood streets.

PACKERS FIGHT WAGE INCREASE Call Expert Witness to Show Decline in Living Costs. CHICAGO, Nov. 24.—Living costs now ; on the run, will continue dropping In- ; definitely, ezpiert witnesses testified to- ! day In the supplementary hearing before United States Judge Alsctuler on wage | demands of 2,000,000 packing bouse workers. Tbe hearing was reopened on contention of the company that wages and living costa are tending downward and a blunkeh—fncrease of $1 a day is no longer Justified. The present price declines are backed by “financial uncertainty, plant closings, ] lower wages and a general demand for j thrift,” J. L. Wells, economist, witness j for the packers, declared. Wells cited recent statistics of the bureau of labor showing declines In food costs of 3 per cent in October. Other figures were produced by Wells to prove prices of all essentials have tumbled 5.4 per cent during the last month. Other witnesses for the packers contended tho drop amounted to 10 per cent during the last year on all articles except food and clothing, which they said 1 fell 30 tier cent. The greatest reductions were made last month, they contcudeil. Attorneys for the employes agreed the tendency of prices had been downward, but argued It was only a mirage and with re<q>enl!ig of European markets the Increased demand would again cause price ascensions similar to those follow- | Ing declines In September, 1919. The employes' representatives also j pointed out that the fall in prices has | not been reflected in retail markets anc! the workers have Ruined no benefits. Instances were cited in the packing Industry where the retail figures have advanced with lower wholesale markets. Articles which have been made cheaper recently still are higher In j price than last April, they claimed. J Federal Judge Samuel Alschuler, ari biter of the wage controversy, again j took the employes' demands under advisement following closing arguments of ; attorneys. He gavo no Indication when ; hls decision would be announced.

KNOX WILL PUSH HIS PEACE PLAN Spikes Report He’s to Be Secretary of State. WASHINGTON, Nov. 24.—Peace with Germany by congressional resolution should be accomplished as soon as possible, Senator Knox of Pennsylvania said today. He announced hls intention of Introducing his peace resolution as soon as Congress convenes, but whether he will press action during the short session depends on views of the majority of his Republican colleagues and President-elect , Harding. Knox was of the opinion that immediate action on hls peace resolution might come , as a result of a proposed canvass of Democratic sentiment. He was inclined to think that as a result of the election the views of some Democratic Senators might be changed to vote for overriding a pres- J Idential veto of the peace resolution. One of the first acts of Senator Knox was to spike the report that he is slated so" be post of Secretary of State in the • Harding cabinet. "Nobody has any authority from me to spe k about It,” he declared when' asked point-blank, If there were any truth In the widely circulated report of ; his being tentatively chosen for that position. “Any one who says I contemplate it, ; or have any bauson to contemplate it. Is j speaking entirely without my authority.”
