FOUR NEGROES ATTACK NURSE; ONE ARRESTED Miss Gussie Shelbourn Identifies Colored Youth as One of Her Assailants. Criminal assaults on a white woman bj negroes, bold-ups and robberies, a series of daring and successful biyglarles, and a capture of a 15-year-old “peeping ; Tom,” featured the crime wave that , swept over the city during the night. One . woman was choked and beaten by a burglar. The most startling crime occured on Tenth street Just west of the city hospital at 12:30 o’clock this morning. It was there that two negroes found a nurse from the city hospital, took her away from her escort, robbed the man and 'criminally assaulted the girl.

While "Harris laid on the ground the negro took from S4O to SSO from his pocket. He then ordered him to get up. The negro asked Harris for a cigarette. Harris gave him one and lighted one for himself. The negro ordered him to keep walking. JOINED BY OTHER NEGROES. The tall negro forced Miss Shelbourn to walk west along the Tenth street road The place Is lonely and little traveled late at night, but it has been the scene of numerous crimes and assaults. They bad reached a place only a short distance from where the negro found the nurse and Harris when another negro appeared. This man and the tal! negro who had the revolver took hold of the nurse. They later were Joined by another negro and a negress The tall negro is said to have taken Miss Shelborun's purse and removed $25 from it. He did not take a Swiss watch the had received while serving In France, and 7 cents and a bank book also remained undisturbed In the purse. Misa Shelbourn'* screams were unheard She made her way to Louche and Tenth streets, where she was again met by Harris, who notified the police.

mission continue its consideration of disarmament and forward a copy of all dehates to Washington. Rene Vivlani, head of the commission, in opening the meeting, referred to President Harding's proposal for a disarmament conference in Washington. He said that *.t was quite likely that the disarmament activities of the league would meet the same fate as covenant amendments and league mandates, both of which were adjourned by the league members until America could participate actively In the di It was believed that rather than run opposition to the Pres'-j. nt s disarmament project the League of Nations comm'ss.on would only hold a formal meeting and then adjourn indefinitely. The three subjects which the eommis slon was scheduled to first take up were: 1. Prohibition of private manufacture of arms. 2 Non-Increase of military budgets. 3 Ratification of the international agreement on the arms traffic. It was agreed to draw up a recommendation to all governments that manufacture of war materials be made a government monopoly. Or. the second item the commission has replies from about thirty governments to the request addressed th*m by the first assembly of t league last December asking them to agree not to Increage their military budgets for two years over that of the present year. These replies probably will be made public. Replies have been received from abont fifteen nations which w"ro asked to ratlfj the international agreement limiting tbtraffic in arms which was drawn up am! s'gned at the same tims as the St. Germain treaty The I'nited States was among the signatories. JAPAN'S POSITION IN PACIFIC PROBLEM WASHINGTON, July 16-Japan opposes the discuss.on of specific Far Eastern questions in the forthcoming Washington disarmament conference, it deve'op“d today. Sim agrees to a discussion of Far Eastern questions from the standpoint of broad general principles, it was made clear to the United Press. Today's attitude of Japan was reflected in her reply to the American In viration to the conference which asked in effect whether the Far Eastern questions were to be taken up specifically or in s eeneral way. This development together with an exclusive statement by Premier Ilara to the United Press offered the key to the heretofore unexplained action of Japan In welcoming disarmament discussion in the coming conference, but withholds acceptance of discussion of specific affairs. It was noted the statement of the Japanese premier, which wa furnished to Secretary of State Hughes, did not ment.v,t the Pccifle phase of the coming conference. By praising the forthcoming gathering as simply a 'disarmament conference,” Hara was elaborating on Japan's official reply to the United States “wholeheartedly” accepting the invitation to a “disarmament conference, ' it was pointed nut. and making a reservation regarding the proposed discussion of Pacific questions. "President Harding's suggestion for a disarmament conference has been received with enthusiasm in Japan," Hnra stated Japan's position regarding discussion of .‘aoifli problems In the disarmament conference was explained to the United Pre> r in authoritative quarters as follow* : 1. Japan is fearful of having specific problems of the Far East discussed in the conference of the five powers on the ground that this would make these questions more difficult of seltlement. 2. Because of her "special” position In the Far East, . apan feels that such specific questions do not properly belong In the discussion of a conference of all the powers, any more than would questions between the United States and Mexico or some other American country. Japan's greatest fear concerning a discussion of Far Eastern questions in the disarms'tent confereuee, it wap also learnedo. is her interests In China, such as Shantung. Secretary Hughes hag informed Ambassador Khldehara that the view of the United States In regard to the Japanese Inquiry is: There will he discussion between the nations to reach an agreement on what subjects are to be taken up at the conference. But Japan must first accept or reject the proposed Pacific discussion in principle before the agenda of the conference is decided upon. Hughes is also understood to be sending a communication to Tokio to this effect. FEAR OBJECTION ' TO SIBERIA PLANS TOKIO, July 16—(Delayed).—Supporters of President Harding’s proposal for a disarmament conference expressed the opinion today that such a conference woulc. interrupt and perhaps block entirely Japanese military activity in Siberia. It is charged by political opponents of the Hara administration that Japa* Is illegally holding Vladivostok and 4cher places. W|iMe the diplomatic advisory council

Mennonites, Who Opposed War, Quit U. S. and Canady toColonizein Paraguay

BUENOS AIDES, Imy i6.—The greatest religions e todus since the chlldr“n of Israel fled from Egypt is getting under way today. Sixty thousand Mennonites, members of a religious sect which doesn’t believe in war, are fleeing to Paraguay from the United States and Canada. They propose to establish their own : nation within Paraguay and manufacture and sell goods. United States capital is said to bark them. Members of this sect had trouble during the war with Germany when they objected to going into the American and Canadian armies So they've decided to shake the dust of those countries off tbelr feet. Fred Etigan, a Minnesotan, representing the Mennonites, has obtained an op-

has announced that Japan will pcrtlcl- | pate In the proposed disarmament con- 1 ference. such participation is opposed by some of the military leaders They proi's* to see In the disarmament a serious obstacle to Japanese plans in Asia. The .xmerlcan commercial attache who has Just returned from Siberia, where he investigated conditions In the Far East r. will make a personal report to Secreti.-v of State Hughes The investigator refused to say whether or not he had found that Japan ; ts negotiating for a treaty with the Far East republic. It Is possible that the report of the commercial attache to the American Secretary of Utate may have some bearing upon the proposed disarmament and Far East conference. Count Ozaki, leader of the disarmament movement in Japan-, declared today that Japan should take part in the disarmament conference. “We have everything to gain from such a meeting.” said Count Ozaki; “1 , think it was a mistake, however, to invite China." The Japanese press and politicians agree that Japan should attend the disarmament conference, but are uneasy because of the invitation to China. Italy and Franco. They feel that the scope of the proposed conference is too broad as it probably inclines all Pacific problems. CHARGES SECRET IT. it.-ANGLO PACT. Belief here is that the other powers will support America in Pacific matters. The newspaper Nichinichi charges that a se cret Anglo-American agreement has been effected and that there ts danger that Japan will be isolated. A” leaders agree that Japan must pro- 1 cee.i cautiously and in general trepidation. Many hold that America is Inconsistent in her disarmament proposals owing to the United States attitude toward the i League of Nations. JAPAN, SAYS OKUMA MOVE TO BLOCK HONOLULU, July 15.—(Delayed ) "Japan's future depends upon the Washington disarmament conference." former Prime Minister Okurna is quoted as saying in an intervie w printed by the news- j paper Jijt. “Failing in its object to curb Japan ; at tha Paris peace conference.” the Jap- I anese statesman added, “America is nttempting to check this country at tbs Washington conference. “If Japan, standing on Justice, finds ! the conference dts-idcdly against her she may withdraw from it," the marquis con- i eluded LLOYD GEORGE NOT TO ATTEND LONDON, July 10.—Despite his deaire to attend Premier Lloyd George probably will be prevented by the Irißh situation from heading the British delegation to the Washington disarmament conference, it was learned from an authoritative source this afternoon.

REGROUPING OF BUREAUS PLAN OF PRESIDENT Creation of Department of Public Welfare in New * Program.

WASHINGTON, July „ 16.—President Harding is about ready to submit to his Cabinet a tentative scheme for regrouping of the Government bureaus. This plan Is expected to include the following recommendations. Creation of a department of public welfare. Transfer of the prohibition enforcement machinery from the Treasury Department to the Department of Justice. Relocation or posible splitting up of the bureau of fisheries. The plan which is being drafted under President Harding's direction by Walter F. Brown, will be revised by the Cabinet and submitted to the Joint congressional committee on reorganization which in turn will make additional changes and then introduce it in both houses of Congress for further consideration. The committee Is giving serious consideration to the proposal to create a secretary of national defense who would head both the Army and Navy departments. Expected opposition to this proposal may result in this plan being held in abeyance until a later date. Consolidation of the aircraft services is another reform which will be vigorously espoused by the President In the reorganization program. President Harding feels that the Army and Navy aviation activities overlap in many respects. FOUR MILLION DOLLAR ESTATE LEFT BY MALOTT (Continued From Page One.)

"He has bought me one dress in six years and he only paid $lO for that,’ testified Mrs. Johnson. Her husband made no denial. "Judge he wore that badge and told me he was a policeman and he told the neighbors he was a policeman,” declared Mrs. Johnson. “That badge was my father’s,’’ Virgil told the court. “My father was Clarence Johnson, and he was a detective In this city many years. I did, wear the badge and told my wife that I was a member of the State police department, 60 she would think I was working at nights and in that way X could follow her and watch her. Judge, I want to tell you about her getting Into an automobile with a man and a woman.” The prosecutor halted Johnson and declared Mrs. Johnson was not on trial. Judge Pritchard bound Johnson over to the grand Jury. "Thanks, Judge," exclaimed Mrs. Johnson. “Make his bond high so he can't get out and kill me. Thanks, Judge.”

JITNEY LINES TO FIGHT MOVE FOR NEW ORDINANCE (Continued Front Page One.) prepared statement issued by Mayor Jewett, in which he has been reported as ' flaying the menace” of Jitneys that the mayor has been lined up for the campaign before It was undertaken. Mayor Jewett does not control the city council, even though he has succeeded In electing Russell Willson president of it, and even Mr. Willson has recently refused to be guided by him in all matters before the council. Unless the situation is changed soon, it is very’ evident that the car company will not get any kind of a Jitney regulation ordinance through the council and into effect for several months. It is generally conceded that the company did not tuke the easiest course to obtain its ordinance when it first lined up the mayor for it. Members of the council, who are in a position to appreciate the lack of influence of Mr. Jewett, not only In the council but in politics, are unable to discern why they should be expected to contribute to his glory by permitting him to banish Jitneys for the car company.
