It took a jury in Federal Court yesterday only a few minutes to decide that Charles Mosk, proprietor of a poolroom and soft-drink establishment at Clinton, was guilty of violating the Federal prohibition law. Judge Albert B. Anderson deferred sentence until later. Mosk was charged with selling whisky to Government agents last March. A plea of guilty to similar charges was entered by Christ Passavento, also of Clinton. As in the other case, sentence was deferred. One day in jail without costs was the happy news broken to Clarence Cissel. ■ 516 East North street, by the court after Cissel had entered a plea of guilty to : violating the Federal prohibition law. It was shown that he had served a jail sentence and paid a fine as the result of sentence imposed on him by the State courts for the same offense. Two more breaks In the ranks of the defendants in the Logansport liquor conspiracy cases, which will go to trial Friday, occurred when Henry H. Gillam nd Donald C. Richardson both of Logansport changed tlieir not guilty pleas to guilty. Riley Mullendoveru, another defendant, changed his plea last week. Among the defend :-its in the case are i Tames A. West, city judge of Logans- i port, and Othello O. Smith, formerly deputy prosecutor. Nickle Street Car Fares Back for Chicago CHICAGO, Nov. 24.-—Street car fares in Chicago so far as surface lines are contented will be restored to a 5-eent basis j it midnight tonight. Fare on the ele- i rated lines will r 'main at 10 cents. An l-cent fare on surface lines has been in tffect since July 1, 1020. The order restoring 5-cent fares was promulgated by the Illinois commerce i tommisaion late yesterday, after a hear- ; !ng of several weeks’ duration. An in- j juiry into elevated railway fares by the rommission is under way. Besides ordering a 3-cont fare, the commission also commanded the surface lines to make certain improvements in tervice, which it characterized as "grossly .nadequate, inefficient, inconvenient and j in many cases dangerous." The cornmis- j lion ordered the surface lines to diseon- [ :inue setting aside 8 per cent of their tnnual revenue for renewals; cut the rate >f return on the investment from to ! 1 per cent, and suggested salary cuts lor certain “overpaid” executives. Attorneys for the street railway com- j pany will endeavor to obtain a restrain- j mg order in the Federal Courts.
National Council for Limitation What is it?\ Sidelights on Doings of Women’s Clubs Now in Session at Capital.
Special to Indiana Daily Times and Philadelphia Public Ledger. By CONSTANCE DKE.VEL. WASHINGTON, Nov. 24.—What has become of the national council for the limitation of armaments heralded with luch acclaim before the opening of the Washington conference? A stroll down Seventeenth street toward •he Pan-American Union where the conferees are meeting behind closed doors will answer the question. If one can’t get near the actual conference, drop into the gray brick house on the corner, not far away. It has been taken over by the national council for the limitation of armaments for the period of the conference, and is the only place In AVashlngto.i where folks may drop in to meet and discussions on armaments by people of other nationalties also here for the conference, and other Americans interested in the issues. PURPOSE OF THE COUNCIL. What is the council? It is a combination of about a dozen women's organizations, the National Education Association, the Friends Disarmament Council, the National Board of Farm Organizations, the Church Peace Union and others who formed “Reduction of Armament” committee several months ago and decided to club together on the subject. This group is the only one thai. has taken a house which is open all day and evening, with a restaurant indudeu, where people may learn about the issues of the conference. Mr. Frederick J. Libby, executive secretary, will meet you at the door, if he Isn't too busy dictation?, or getting up the weekly bulletins seDt out to 1 the member organizations.

PREMIER BRIAND SAYS FAREWELL TO CONFERENCE l France Will Reduce Armies in Accordance With Own Judgment. HAS NO HIDDEN MOTIVES Special to Indiana Daily Times and Philadelphia public Ledger. By ROBERT BARRY. WASHINGTON, Nov. 24.—Premier ArUtide Briand bade farewell last night to the conference on the limitation of urmamenV after successfully blocking any move to an expression by the live pritiI cipal allied and associated powers for a reduction in the laud forces of the world. I A resolution, proposed by Italy for an ! exj>ression of the of the conference ! that the nations of the world might in the ; near future take steps to reduce and to i limit their armies, was not pressed for I adoption by the conference after M. Briand had spoken in opposition to it. MAKES TRENCH POSITION CLEAR. i The position of the French minister, as | stated to the heads of the American, j British. Italian and Japanese delegations ' sitting with him as a special sub-eommit- ; tee on procedure with respect to land arj moments was stated by him with special j ; force and clearity. Some of his statement was a reiteration of his address of j Monday at a plenary session of the conference, but behind the guarded doors of ! the Pan-American building, he became more specific. France, M. Briand urged, asked to be i permitted to continue the reduction of | her land forces in relation to her own i estimate of the requirements of her na- i tional security. But one alternative was j open. That, he said, was a specific guar- ; antee from Great Britain and the United j States to protect the territorial integrity ! and political independence of France against external aggression. As it had I been made clear to him no such guar- ; nntee might be expected, it was essen- ' tial, if the other powers were not bent j on the “moral isolation” of France, that j the people of his republic be permitted to work out their program according to ; their own lights. M. Briand declared the Italian resolu- j tiou was objectionable on the further ; ground it proposes to contemplate action J with respect to other countries of Eu- j rope not represented at this conference , That he held to be wrong in principle, i DISCUSSES HUGHES’ PROGRAM. The. French Premier was very keen; throughout his address. Some of his sallies were decidedly pointed. For ex- | ample, he referred to the percentage of j naval reduction proposed by the Higbes program. He inquired why three na- j tions—America. Britain and Japan—sit- ; ting in the conference ns friends, desired j to retain any capital ships at all. Tehu he said the Hughes program provided for a reduction of appproxtmately 39 per cent In the fleets of the major sea powers. France, which is being criticised for the size of the army, had redueed her land forces approximately 33 per cent by the modification of her three-year service law. There was, of course, a nexchange of pleasantries incident to M. Briand's farewell tc the conference. He expressed his regret at being obliged to return to Frame. The spokesman for the other four nations responded with apppreciation j of Ms services and regret at his going, j Tae French prime minister had not
ond International Congress of Working Women, with Mrs. Raymond Robbins presiding. HAS WOMAN LEADER. Dr. Marian Erwin, who is proving to be one of the most interesting young women in Washington on conference matters, also spoke. She jumps back end forth from her duties as a member of the faculty in Itadcliffe College in Cam bridge. Mass. She is interesting because her father was au American, but her mother was a Japanese, and she has only recently come from the Far East. There will be plenty of speeches from day to day, but it is planned to have a forum every day on the issues of the conference. Senator Borah will speak one day, William Jennings Brynn on another. These forums will be late in the afternoon, but at all other hours of the day there are all sorts of people dropping in—foreign Journalists, Japanese parliamentary members; in fact, a general sprinkling of the men and women of *ll nations here for the conference VARIOUS THEMES FOR DEBATE. You see a British peace poster on the wall. It says “The great war was a war to end war—we will have no more war—tell the British government to send delegates to Washington who will save the world from death and release hundreds of millions for humanity, housing and education." On the other side is an American poster quite similar published by the , National Council for the Limitation of Armaments. It reads: “To prevent the next war lies with the people of America and the world. Its deadly gasses will kill human beings like vermin—write Secretary Hughes you will support the American delegation in further progress towaril permanent peace." Y . hear discussions. “Don’t you think ought to abolish the submarine? What of land armaments, do you think anything will be done? Wait until Lloyd George conies over—what is he going to do?”—Copyright, 1021, by Public Ledger Company.

■ gained the tri-partite alliance from America and Great Britain, which Clemenceau urged and Wilson signed up at I'aris, but he leaves Washington with the assurance that no proposal for limitation of land armaments will be adopted to the embarrassment—the moral isolation—of France. Byt while concurring in ihe thought of M. Briand that the special problems of France constituted an all-powerful factor in her policy with r>snect to her military establishment, the United States is not ready that the conference shall adjourn without at least an effort looking a curb on the savage misuse of aircraft and gases, or a pretense toward amendment of the existing code of civilization’s conduct of war on land, with a view to providing specifically for the rules which Christian nations would be expected to observe even In national defense. FURTHER PURPOSES OF CONFERENCE. The feeling was widespread that the objection of France to any program for the reduction of laud forces having been put beyond the hope of this assembly of nations, the conference certainly had undertaken to do the next best thing by dealing squarely with the Issue presented by aircraft and polrfon gases. It was not hjjrd to guess what the recommendations of the conference might bo with respect to the uses to wljich those new agencies could bo put under anew cods of warfare. Th • United States and the allies never used nlrcraft to bomb hospitals and it was Germany who introduced, not only gases which rendered troops Ineffective during an engagement, but blind, burned and attacked the hearts of men. FRANCE HAS NO OFFENSIVE INTENTION'S. Those portions of M. Briand's address, made public by the conference, following their official translation made no reference to his remarks on the Italian proposal for a resolution dealing with land armament. The official statement set forth that the French Bremler had thanked his colleagues for their words relating to France. Those words, he said, marked a great step forward on the road to peace. M. Briand declared it was possible no longer for any one to say the armaments of France masked offensive Intention, but hts statement of Monday was necessary to put an end to talk abroad that France was guilty of hidden motives and doubtful purposes. On his return to France, he said, the French parliament would begin the consideration of military problems, the chief atm of which would be a desire to reduce. He paid tribute to Rene Vlviani's successor ns chief of the French delegation.—Copyright, 1921, by Public ledger Company. Slain Capitalist’s Wife Puts Bullet in Heart RT.

Soaring Turkey Brings Flight to Imagination Pilgrim Father's Ways of Acquiring a Thanksgiving Feast Relatively Sure .
By MABEL WHEELER. “Do you know what day today is?” asked the C. E. this morning as I timorously toddled past his office reservation In the cold, gray dawn of this morning. “No, I dunno nothing at this ungodly hour,” I groaned. “Don’t bother me with riddles, there are bigger things at stake; I gotta flock of Thanksgiving weddings to expound.” “That’s it,” he ejaculated eagerly, “You said it.” “Wbatja rnpan, ‘I said it’ is it your wedding anniversary or something? Well what of it, why ask me about your wedding anniversary. I gotta nough birthdays and Christmases and family anniversaries to worry over without keeping track of your wedding anniversary. Are you having a party tho’V” “Say, take your foot off the exhilerator" he piped, “too much gas you’re feeding; who said anything about wedding anniversaries. I asked you what day today is. Nothing sounds like wedding bells about that, is there? And then you said Thanksgiving wedding** innd that’s the point, not the wedding, but it's Thanksgiving, you see today is Thanksgiving.” QUESTION OF TAXES OK TURKEY. “Then why waylay me (o ask me what today is,” said I, "when you know (lie answer? Naturally the Governor or the President or the mayor, one or all, having proclaimed today Thanksgiving it is. I thought there was a catch in It. Why. I have known today was Thanksgiving for six months, at least. I inferred from the calendar and general atmospheric conditions that if the world survived until today It would be Thanksgiving. However, it is to me Thanksgiving in name only; It is but mere mockery of (he holiday, for what Is Thanksgiving without turkey—and woe is me and my family, for we have no turkey. It was a question of paying our taxes or having turkey, and it seemed that we could get along better in our happy home turkeyless than with a turkey, homeless. So, as it were, we feel no thrijl over today.” The C. E. whose sense of humor gets slightly blunted at times, shot a stony glance my way. "Turkey or no turkey,” he stated sternly, “the significance of Thanksgiving 1s still there. Even if you do not know what the day means. Think of our Pilgrim Fathers.” "Exactly, in those days, the turkey rno

wild through the woods,” I retorted. “Father would take his firearm, trip merr.ly out through the frosty air, and come back bearing the bacon, bacon being one great gorgeous gobbler. I’retty soft for pilgrim father luethinks. YVhj*. nowadays you can’t even run over a weekold chicken without the farmer suing you for damages. Every time 1 think of a pilgrim father 1 feel peevish.” “Nus said,” barked the C. K., “you are groaning over the fact that you will have no turkey when, think of thousands who are starving. Can't you think of something to be thankful for.” “You bet I can,” I responded with I alacrity. "Why, I’d just be tickled to i death to be thankful for an eight cylinder J limousine or a squirrel coat; talk about ! being thankful, if someone would Just give me a few thousand liberty bonds, I could certainly he completely smothered in thankfulness.” "A muffler wouldn’t be a bad gift for you," chipped in his editorship. “If l weren't just bursting with gentlemanliness I could give expression to some of my might be thankfulnesses. However, we get out a paper today. BONDERS OVER THANKSGIVING. Which had all the earmarks of a nasty remark, but 1 passed on without comment and have been pondering on Thanksgiving since, thinking about cranberry sauce. We had turkey without ] cranberry sauce one year, owing to the j fact that I knocked the kettle off the lee j box a: the Hat minute, and yet we hail ! a dinner, but how about cranberries without turkey. Someway it Isn’t the -sanie. I can fancy turkey without cranberries, but somehow there's no appeal to cranberries without turkey. No doubt there are a lot of happy turkey families today who hn\e been spared the pain of parting, who are thankful that they still have their gobble Instead of being a principal In some hungry human's gobbling. Another thought has come to me ns I sit looking out Into the misting, murky dawn. Rome one asked me this morning what the nationnl bird was and I said of course "turkey,” which goes to prove what a psychic power atmospheric conditions are. But why not? The turkey has soared higher than any eagle ever thought of soaring, in fact It has soared completely out of sight, has usurped the highest pinnacle of the eagle and there isn’t enough salt to have any effect on its flamboyant tail even if some brave heart drew near enough to reach it.
