IMPOSSIBLE TO CURTAIL LAND ARMAMENT NOW ] Briand Will Give Facts and Figures Showing Con* ditions. FRANCE NEEDS PEACE By P. M. MALACBIDI. WASHINGTON', Nov. 17.—Proposals for the reduction of land armaments are Impossible as long as present conditions prevail In Europe, Premier Briand .said today in announcing that he Is nowprepared to discuss the questiou before the armament conference. Premier Briand denied that he will make any actual proposals for land armament, but said that he will simply expose facts and figures and permit the other powers to draw their own conclusions. High French officials declared France has no desire for the largest army In the world, nor has she any desire for expansion at the expense of her recent defeated foe. France needs a long period of peace perhaps more than any other nation in Europe, and is going to do all in her power to secure it, her spokesman declared. The French army, exclusive of troops maintained for the fulfillment of mandates, does not amount to more than 300,000 men. It was claimed by the French spokesmen. Premier Briand, It Is understood, will inform the conference that Germany has 180,000 men in her police force and 150.000 men In the- Reichswehr. Keeent fighting in Upper Silesia had demonstrated with what rapidity former soldiers, completely outfitted, swell the ranks ot the Reichswehr, according to the French spokesman. The French premier announces that he is ready to accept any proposals that are compatible with the security of the French borders, but he does not conceal the fact that he expects to be able to demonstrate that land disarmament for France Is an impossibility at the present moment.

LESS PAGEANT, MORE PLAY, IS SHANK’S PLAN (Continued From Page One.) ——i We’re going to do more practical things with the city’s money. As I said before, we’re going to spend more on slides. ; sand piles and swimming pools than on singing and dancing.” SWIMMING POOL PROGRAM GOES. If there is any one plan of the present administration with which Mr. Shank agrees and which he does not Intend to sweep out of existence it is the swimming pool building program. "I'm absolutely for the proposed swimming pools, and a whole lot more if 1 we can find the money with which to build them," declared the mayor-elect. “I started the municipal bathing beaches In my administration. We had beaches along Fall Creek, and with our life guards there we never lost a single life. If we can get the sewer system north of the creek cleaned out so that there Mill not be an overflow of filth into the stream I want to see bathing beaches put back In Fall Creek. I'm going to see if this can’t be done. However, we will not make a move until we're sure the water is free from sewage " Establishment of the bathing beach in White River at Twenty-Sixth street by the park board with the approval of the board of public health last summer met with Mr. Shank’s enthusiastic approval. MORE BEACHES IF ANYTHING. “Sure we’re going to let them bathe in the rfver,” he said. “Don’t they bathe in It out at Ravenswood? I am In favor of going ahead with the park board's plan of developing the Twenty-Sixth street beach with permanent bath houses. I'd like to see some more beaches opened in the river.” Departments ar going to have to live within their means, Mr. Shank said. When a sum Is fixed in the budget as the allowance for a department for a given year that department is going to spend no more than that amount or "I’ll find out who Is responsible and I'll put the blame exactly where it belongs,” he said. TO MAKE REA I, COPPERS OCT OF POLICEWOMEN'. The new shift system which will provide for policemen to walk their beats In pairs at night was explained by Mr. Shank. The first shift will be from 3 in the afternoon to 11 in the evening. The next will be from 11 in the evening until 7 In the morning. The third-shift men will go on duty at 8 in the evening and quit at 5 In the morning In winter and 4 o'clock in summer. Every man in the department will get his turn on this extra night shift, which doubles with the regular shift men on night beats, one month in three. The city ail be protected between the hours of 7 in the morning and 3 in the afternoon by the blcyciemen at substations, the mounted men and policewomen. “I’m going to make real coppers out of the policewomen,” said Mr. Shank. “Going to give them clubs ns well as badges and uniforms. ‘‘l'll have them assigned to nice districts like the north side or Irvington, though.” The best four policewomen will be assigned to detective duty at the outset and others transferred there as they show their ability. From $25,000 to $30,000 will be saved the first year by the abolition of the report system at police headquarters, Mr. Shank said be believes. “Why one policeman was telling me the other day that It took him all afternoon to write out his reports down at headquarters when he should have been out working on his beat." CITES DOWNTOWN FIRE AS PARKING ARGUMENT. The Rialto building fire in Pennsylvania street Tuesday afternoon served to emphasize the value of his plan of eliminating parking, excepting when a vehicle is occupied by a driver, \ipon crowded downtown streets, Mr. Shank said. He pointed cut that the fire department was seriously hampered'ln its work at this fire because of the Humber of locked automobiles which were parked In the vicinity of the burning building. If the cars had been parked with drivers In them, the street could have been cleared in a few seconds, he said. “Indianapolis is not a country town any more,” he said, “and we’ve got to wake up to the fact that we can’t have crossroads parking rules downtown anymore. Look at other big cities. You can’t park an hour and a half downtown —and all day if you happen to have a friend on tho police force—in Chicago.” Discussing the proposal that the city buy ground between the city and Robert M. Long Hospitals and convert It into a convalescent park upon which these Institutions and the new Riley memorial hospital for children would front, Mr Shank said he understood this would cost about $200,000. PARK FINE THING, HOSPITAL FOR SERVICE. “I don't know.” he said. “That park would probably be a fine thing, but $200,000. I’d a whole lot rather spend that $200,000 on a couple of new wings for the city hospital. Everybody knows we need more hospital facilit’es in Indianapolis and you can’t get treatment In a park. I had a hard time getting into a hospital when I was sick a year or two ago. “I’d like to see those two new wings on the hospital. We built two in my first administration and 1 hope to see

President Pleased With Conference , Report of Lodge WASHINGTON, Nov. 17.—President Harding is well pleased with the progress made by the disarmament conference. This was the word brought from the White House today by Senator Lodge, member of the American delegation, following a conference with the President. “Both the President and myself are pleased with the way the conference is progressing,” said Lodge. “It is moving faster than 1 expected. I hope it will not glow up.” Lodge said he expected the conference to last not more than two months,

two more built under this administration. If I remember correctly, plans for several more units were prepared at the time we put on those first two I think those plans are all ready and we could go right ahead as soon as we got the money.” Mr. Shank spent the day in a room in a downtown hotel conferring with his lieutenants. He’ said he would have no more appointments to announce until after he returns from his vacation trip to Hot Springs, Ark. He was talking over plans for the administration today, he said. The vacation trip probably will start Saturday. Leonard M. Quill, secre.ary of the Republican city committee: Herman Rikhoff, sub-treasurer of the Republican campaign fund; Fred Akin, chief clerk of the city Barrett law bureau, and Joseph L. Hogue, Shauk lieutenant, worked upon the Republican campaign expense report in the office of City Controllei Robert H. Bryson today. The report must be filed with the city clerk not later than thirty days after the election. SHANK STUDIES OLD WORKHOUSE. The new board of public works has been instructed by Mr. Shank to visit the old Marion County workhouse property at Twenty-First street and Northwestern avenue Monday to determine whether it is a suitable place for the establishment of municipal yards. The present administration has planned for three years to put the yards at Kentucky avenue and Drover street, but opposition from citizens of West Indianapolis caused the plan to be shelved. Mr. Shank has instructed his board of works and engineering appointees to have work completed preliminary to carrying out some of the improvement projects he favors, such as an eat bank flood wall on White River and the widening of New York and Michigan streets, so that the adoption of resolutions may start on the first day the new board meets. WOMEN ASKED TO COOPERATE. Mrs. Charles E. Coffin, Mrs. M. J. Spencer and Mrs. William H. Freeman were appointed by the mayor-elect as an unsalaried citizens committee to cooperate with city authorities in obtaining proper santlary conditions at Tomlinson Hail und the city market. The women are the wives of the new members of the hoard of public works. Mr.vShank had lunch at the Columbia Club Wednesday with Mr. Coffin, Mr. Freeman and Mr. Spencer. The Columbia. Club was not overly friendly toward Mr. | Shank in the election, but a number of, members congratulated him and wished him success. Herman Rikhoff, appointee for chief oi police, announced that he will not permit his tailoring establishment to make uniforms for either policemen or firemen. Mr. Shank declared that he will stop the letting of contracts for unlfornv for policemen and firemen to out-of-town firms. The men will be permitted to buy their uniforms from whatever local merchants they can get them best and most economically, Mr. Shank said. Local plumbers have expressed opposition to the appointment of George Griffin to succeed Joseph Swain as plumbing Inspector for the board of health. A. C. Paetz, president of the Indianapolis Society of Sanitary Engineers, is circulating a petition for Mr. Swain's retention. The petition states that Mr. Swain has saved property owners much money and kept plumbing standards high. GOVERNMENT ICE SEASON ENDED Federal Custodian Gets Orders to Practice Economy. This is an era of economy. This fact is admitted in a communication received by James 11. Fry, custodian of the Federal building, from Edvard Clifford, assistant secretary of the treasury, today. The communication directs that from now on until April oi* next year that no Ice be purchased for the drinking water coolers In the Federal building. Hereafter thirsty officials and employes will have a choice of drinking lukewarm water or letting the water run until It gets cold. Mr. Fry Is wondering if the increased water bills resulting from the waste of water by employes while they wait for it to get cold will offset any savings on ice expenditures. Jugo-Slavs Make Headway in Uprising PARIS, Nov. 17.—The Jugo-Slavs have captured 157 towns In Albania and put 40.000 residents to flight, 11. A. L. Fisher, British delegate to the League of Nations, told the league council today. The British consul at Durrazzo has reported that the Jugo-Slav uprising is widespread.

VINOL ON THE SQUARE DO NOT TAKE OUR WORD TRY IT ONA GUARANTEE We agree to help you with Vinol or return your money. That is what we call giving the consumer a square deal. We know that Vinol is the best body builder and strength creator for young and old —that money can buy—and we are willing to prove it to you at our risk. We do not want anybody’s money unless we can do them some good. “Value returned for value received” is our motto and always has been; upon this principle the fine reputation that Vinci enjoys has been built. That is the reason we tell you what Vinol contains before you buy it. Would you pay $5.00 for a bag of sugar without knowing how many pounds of sugar it contained? Os course you would not. Why then should you take chances with your precious health by taking a medicine about which you know nothing. It might contain something that would hurt you. For 20 years Vinol has been sold in your City and hundreds of your neighbors have been restored to health by it. If you have not taken it yourself you must know someeue who has —and who knows from experience that money cannot buy a better remedy for all run-down and debilitated conditions —to restore strength after sickness—to make delicate children strong and robust—and bolster up the strength of old people. Remember what we said in the heading of this notice— We will help you with Vinol or return your money. Henry J. Huder, Druggist, Indianapolis.

VITAL MOLDING AGENCIES SEEN IN LIBRARIES Such Constitutes Keynote of Speakers at Trustees’ Meeting. Public libraries ns a vital factor In Americanization work formed the keynote of a message given the Indiana 1.. rnry Trustees Association convention this afternoon at the Hotel Severin by Edmund L. Craig of Evansville, president. “The safety of the world today," he said, “lies in our ability to educate the masses and the classes of our people into right ways of living and thinking, to get them to see and realize for themselves that the failings of a democracy lie in the people and must be cured, there, that America means liberty and freedom only so.long as the people safeguard its laws ana institutions and uphold those basic principles upon which our republic is founded. “It Is not necessary for us to be told that freedom is only found where there is intelligence. We know that without free educational institutions, the tax-supported public schools, the tax-supported public libraries, our democracy is doomed. OBLIGATION A GREAT ONE. "A million boys and girls between tho ages of 14 and 16 years come from our schools, and we read daily of the mlllionr of foreigners clamoring for admission to our shores from other countries of this war-weary world. “My message to you, then, is to ex press the hope that in this thirteenth session of our association we may gain such Inspiration and determination that wf will return to libraries of Indiana with the motto of this meeting ‘Fiat Lux' engraven on our hearts. Let there be light among miners and employers, labor unions and railroad operators, farmers and city dwellers, foreigners and natives and let us do our part in so educating the people of our time so as to continue the guaranty of life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness to ourselves and our children.” Mr. Craig expressed himself as being personally opposed to the legislation permitting the State board to review the tax levy of a library board, on the appeal of a group of citizens in the community where the tax is made. TAX METHODS OBITICIZD. Judge Ora L. Wildermuth of Gary, discussed the library tax levy and presented a set of forms to be used in levying such taxes. He said that Indiana and lowa were the only two States to his knowledge whose library boards were permitted to levy their cwn taxes. Mrs. IV. R. Davidson of Evansville made a short talk on “The Board Secretary.” reading the financial reports of the year, and William J. Hamilton of the public library commission spoke briefly on “What the Commission Owes the Board.” Tonight Michael F. Gallagher, attorney of Chicago, will deliver an address on “The Furnishing of Opportunities for Reading as a Function of Government," in the assembly room of the hotel.

Lnughner, 736 West Thirtieth street, some time last night by unlocking the front door. Money amounting to $72 was taken from the cash register, Laugliner told investigating officers that a former employe whom he had discharged for drunkenness a few days ago had lost three keys to his shop and it was possible that the burglars found the keys end, knowing to what they belonged, robbed the store this morning.

MARION COUNTY TREASURER’S PAY FOR YEAR $55,381 (Continued From Page One.) “errors” In posting are given In detail by the examiners. The report u!o states that “during the year 1920, the objectional features connected with the collection of delinquent taxes, commented upon in the field examiner’s report for 1918 and 1919, were eliminated, and costs are not charged on partial payments of delinquent tuxes, it being the rule not to accept partial paymeats of deliquent taxes." At .‘lie end of Mr. Lemcko’s present term, the treasurer’ will receive an “annual salary of $5,000, provided, “that the county treasurer shall serve ns treasurer of the civil city and the treasurer of the school city of any county seat city located in such county and for such services he shall receive no compensation except as provided in this act,” according to the 1921 acts. The statute also provides that “all fees, interest, penalties, costs, fines and forfeitures provided by law shall be collected by the proper officials and shall be paid into tho county treasury, except fees on delinquent tax collections and delinquent improvement assessments which fees shall be distributed as now provided by law; also except foreign fees collected by tho sheriff which shall belong to and be the property of the sheriff. It shall be unlawful for any official named herein to retain any fee ns his own except as herein provided." REPORT ON OFFICES OF AUDITOR AND CORONER. The State board of accounts also submitted a report on the offices of the county coroner and the county auditor. In the report on the office of County Coroner Dr. Paul F. Robinson for a period beginning Jan. 1, 1020, a id ending Dec. 31, 1920, considerable space was given to the discussion of anew system used by the coroner last year relative to the paying of witness fees. Prior to Jan. 1, 1920, the witness for the coroner inquests was paid by the witness signing a receipt hut since that time the witness is paid by check. The examiners expressed themselves as favoring the check system. The examiners recommended that “by reason of the coroner having received fees for witnesses in (lie year 1919 and in the early part of 1920 under tho reeeipt system and inter by paying the witnesses by check and filing claims for reimbursement on account of witness fees paid, the following items of witness fees totaling $19.50 should be returned to the county treasury.” The report shows that Dr. Robinson paid that amount Into the treasury after his attention was called to It. REPORT RECORDS KEPT IN PROPER FORM. The report of the examiners on the office of the country auditor from June 1. 1920. to May 31. 1921, shows that all records were kept in the proper form. The following summary of all funds held in trust is also set forth: Common school fund, $464,868.10. Congressional, $18,439 07. Perinauont endowment, $56,113.70. Total, $539,410.87. Tho report shows that the total ot loans past due amounts to: Common School—ssß,73o. Congressional—sl,soo. Permanent Endownment— $12,700. The report also shows that “lots mortgaged to secure loon No. 3149 were sold by the auditor on Oct. 24, 1919 for the sum of SIOO and was credited to the county revenue, the sum of S3OO should be transferred from county revenue to common school principal.” Other reports on other county offices are expected to lie received by the county commissioners within a few days.

U. S. JOB GOES TO TODD YOUNG Former Councilman to Be Special Justice Agent. Confirmation of the appointment of Todd Young, formerly councilman from the First district, nnd a well known figure In Republican politics, or special agent in the bureau of investigation of the Department of Justice, was received today Young will assume his duties at mice. This appointment was forecast by dispatches from Washington some time ago. Young says he will be first assistant to E. L. Osborn of Lafayette, whose appointment as agent in charge of the local office was announced from Washington more than a month ago. Notice of the confirmation of the Osborn appointment Is expected daily. Tho resignation of Albert McKinley of Borden, as deputy collector for the Department of Internal Revenue at Seymour was announced by M. Bert Thurman, collector, today. McKinley was appointed in June. His successor has not been selected. ‘Black’ Smallpox Stirs Kansas City KANSAS CITY, Mo.. Nov. 17—The “black” small pox epidemic sweeping Kansas City and threatening Kansas today had caused forty-eight deaths here since Sept. 1. Dozens of new cases sent thousands to physicians’ offices and hospitals for vaccination. “Show a scar” has been officially adopted as the passwords to lodge and other meetings. BETTER THAN CALOMEL Thousands Have Discovered Dr. Edwards’ Olive Tablets are a Harmless Substitute Dr. Edwards’ Olive Tablets—tho substitute for calomel—are a mild but sure laxative, and their effect on the liver is almost instantnueous. These little olivecolored tablets are the result of l)r. Edwards’ determination not to treat liver and bowel complaints with calomel. The pleasant little tablets do the good that Calomel does, but have no bad after effects. They don’t injure the teeth like strong liquids or calomel. They take hold of the trouble and quickly correct it. Why cure the liver at the expense of the teeth? Calomel sometimes plays havoc with the gums. So do strong liquids. It is best not to take calomel. Let Dr. Edwards’ Olive Tablets'take its place. Headaches, “dullness'’ and that lazy feeling come from constipation and a disordered liver. Take Dr. Edwards’ Olive Tablets when you feel “logy” and “heavy.” They “clear" clouded brain and “perk up’’ the spirits. 15c nnd 30c.— Advertisement.

PHONE SERVICE DEMONSTRATED Reproduction of Switchboards to Be Seen First at ‘Round-up.’ Because Mahomet, meaning the public in this instance, will not go to the mountain, meaning the Indiana Bell Telephone Company, the mountain is getting ready to go to Mahomet. Frank Wampler, general manager of the company, says people do not take advantage of the company’s hospitality and come in to see how the great, intricate switchboards work. Tl}e eonipany, therefore, is going to the people witli demonstrations of telephone operation. Two special demonstration boards, exact* reproductions of the big boards that handle thousands of calls dally, have beeu built und equipped as the big boards are equipped. One represents the Main exchange and the other the Washington exchange. Three of the most charming anil skillful operators among the hundreds employed by the company have been selected as demonstrators. They are tho Misses Marion Marshall, Anna Brosnan and Helen Hoppman. Subscribers -will be impersonated by Fred Paul nnd Orie Johnson, company employes. The girls will handle calls and explain the process of communication as they go through it, step by step. The first demonstration will lie a feature of the company’s “round-up” at Tomlinson Hall tonight. “The Telephone in Indianapolis,” the motion picture developed by the company, will be shown, and a program will be given by talent recruited from among the personnel of telephone workers. Numbers will be given by the “Harmony Entertainers,” Misses Price and Webster and Mrs. Tudor, the Heller sisters and the “Yum Yum Four,” Messrs. Watkins, Young, Bolan and Hollowell, with George Pierce at the piano. The “Roundup” is for company employes and their families, who are expected to fill the hall to • capacity. Dancing will follow the formal program. EXPECT TO BEGIN TESTIMONY SOON (Continued From Page One.) will tell of having heard screnms from the Arbuckle room. Bamblna Maude Delmont, once the star witness, Is not expected to be called, but there Is a possibility she may bo. The defense hopes to force such action. Then the defense will attempt to do three things: 1. Establish by medical testimony that Virginia Rappe died from natural causes —due to"a weakened Internal condition. 2. Impeach the testimony of the principal Slate witnesses. 3. Attack tho motives of tho prosecution and create a general impression of Improbability to tho story told by the State witnesses. The number of women on the jury baa been reduced to three. State and defense each eliminated one by peremptory chal lenge. The State had two peremptory charges remaining, the defense eight and the prospect was that when all the challenges are used the Jury will be all men. JUST MISSES MEETING WITH “THE AVENGER.’’ As Arbuckle entered court be just missed meeting face to face Mrs. Delmont, who swore to tho murder complaint, later reduced to manslaughter, on which he Is being tried. Mrs. Delmont. friend of Virginia Rappe, earned the title of “The Avenger" as a result of her statements following the death of Miss Rappe. She visited the district attorney's office for a conference, arriving just before Arbuckle phased down the corridor to the courtroom. It was stated her conference had to do with expenses Incurred when held as a witness, although some saw In the eonferenep n possibility that Brady hud decided to put her on the stand. Shields & Cos. Given National Road Job Ewing Shields & Company of Indianapolis were warded tho contract for re surfacing a stretch of about two and a half miles of the National road west of Greeqeastie by tho State Highway Commission today. The contract also calls for tho building of culverts and other construction work. The bid was for $42,744.03 nnd was below the commission's estimate.

M’CRAY STILL UNDECIDED ON EXTRA SESSION (Continued From Page One.) pointed a commission in compliance with the bill and made u deal with the Colgate people whereby they were to purchase the institution, and ap initial payment of SIOO,OOO was made to the State. After the sale the matter of the actual removal was gone into and there Immediately arose a dispute as to where the institution w-as to be located. Some had It that it was to bo combined with the State farm. Others held that it was to be adjoining the farm and still others that it could be anywhere within the confines of Putnam County. The bill reads that It shall be “adjacent" to the farm. The question of the appropriation v.vs taken up. The bill provides an appropriation of $300,000. It was decided that this was not enough. Representatives of the Colgate Company were called into conference and the situation was explained to them They agreed, after some discussion, not to press their claim for possession. They are told that in all probability nothing could be done before the next regular session of the Assembly in 1923. Announcement was made at the Governor's office that an agreement to this effect had been roaehed. The details, however, remained hazy, if a special session is now being contemplated it is believed that it must be due to the fact that Colgate & Cos. is urging Immediate possession. FEW DIFFICULTIES AT PRESENT. There are unusually few difficulties surrounding the State Government at this time that would need correcting at an extraordinary session. The only other measure that it is believed may come before such a session, if it is called, would be that of Congressional reappor'tionitient. This can come before the assembly only ater Congress makes provisions for It nnd the measure Is still pending in Congress. If such a session is called, it Is believed efforts will be made to limit It to one or two days. This can be done only by agreement among the members of the Assembly as was done by Governor Goodrich in rhe case of the one-day special session for tho ratification of the Federal suffrage amendment. The Governor can not prescribe what will come before the Assembly If he should call It In session. However, if the session should be delayed until the congressional reapportionment measure ts passed by Congress, it may be impossible for the Governor to bold the session down. Nearly every Indiana district probably will have to be rearranged and this can hardly be done without a long legislative wrangle. TWO SESSIONS NOT WANTED. It is believed certain that if a special session is called it will not be called ! until after tho congressional reapportionment bill is enacted, unless the Governor should be assured that this bill will not become a law until after the congressional election next year. If a session Vhould be called before this bill becomes a law it would be necessary either to call another session before the next election or to elect Congressmen- j at-large. There is general opposition j to the latter plan.

JAPS PLEASED BY ACCEPTANCE OF PROPOSALS Optimism Prevails Over Empire as to Result of Conference. BY CLARENCE DUBOSE. TOKIO, Nov. 17.—Satisfaction was expressed in Japan today uover the acceptance of the general principles of the Hughes’ armament reduction proposals, made by Admiral Kato of Japan in Tuesday’s session of the "Washington conference. Optimism that details of the armament limitation program could be worked out was evident.
