We Will Help You to Save Safely ana €rusr Company MANY FOREIGN DIPLOMATS TO BE DISMISSED Reports Have It That French Ambassador Will Be Relieved. ■WASHINGTON, Feb.. O.—A severe shake-up In Washington's diplomatic corps Is expected to follow In the wake of the armament conference. Unless the tea-table strategists are all wrong In their surmises—and they seldom are—some of the most familiar figures In the capital’s foreign colony are due to be relieved when the armament conference finally melts away. They will either be assigned to other posts, put ou home duty, or retired. It is not improbable that some of them will be found In Genoa when the powers meet there on March 8 to settle those world problems which Paris and Washington failed to settle. All the envoys of the so-called “Big Four”—Great Britain, France, Italy and Japan are due for early relief from their American assignments, according to expectations that pevail in diplomatic quarters. JUSSERAND TO BE RETIRED. Jules J. Jusserand, the ambassador from France, who is dean of the corps, is to be retired, according to reports. Ever since the war ended M. Jusserand has been the target of considerable criticism in his own country. Some of his oponents have laid the blame at his door for the loss of French prestige in America. He is also blamed for failure to put the French position In the armament conference "in a better light.” He la advanced in years, and there is demand for younger blood. If M. Jusserand Is retired it will leave the Spanish Ambassador, Senor de Rtano, as the dean of the Washington corps; and if anything should happen to him Washington would be in a terrible predicament for that would leave the deanship with M. Bakhmeteff, the Russian ambasador, who hasn’t had a government to represent for more than four years now, but who still is the accredited Russian envoy, in spite of that fact. Reports recently were printed in London that Sir Auckland Geddes, the Brit, ish ambassador, was to be withdrawn, but these were subsequently denied. The impression prevails, however, that Sir Auckland's tenure of the American office is soon to expire. He has made a notable record in Washington, according to diplomatic observers, and it was due in no small measure to his efforts that Great Britain emerged from the armament conference without having met defeat in a single issue. The British ambassador is more ‘‘American’ than any of his predecessors in the picturesque old British embassy here. He has a direct speech, almost blunt sometimes, and has little of the characteristic British accent. Asa matter of fact, he is a Canadian, which may account for most of it. His critics la Great Britain find fault with him because he does not have the worshipful regard for family trees that many English diplomats possess. Vlttori Roland! Ricci, the Italian ambassador, is reported scheduled for an early departure from Washington. M. Ricci Is understood to be anxious for relief. He is said by his friends to want to devote his time to the betterment of Italy’s economic system. JAP ENVOY IS BEAMED. Kijuro Shidehara, the Japanese ambasador, who has had a great number of controversial problems to settle with the American State Department, will, in all probability, return to Tokio soon after the conference ends. Shidehara is understood to be “In bad” with the powers in Tpkio, and there has been much criticism in his own country of his work In the arms conference. It is recalled that at one critical Juncture of the conference proceedings Ambassador Shidehara became acutely ill and did not participate in the affairs of the conference for some time. It was facetiously suggested by some irreverent observers at the time that the Japanese ambassador was suffering from "congestion of the cables.” In any event, it was an open secret that there were strong differences of opinion within the Japanese delegation, with Shidehara and Prince Tokugawa on the one hand, and the military and naval figures, headed by Admiral Baron Kato, on the other. At one time Kato was conducting all of Japan’s negotiations almost single-handed.

1921 Big Year for Chicago Divorces CHICAGO, Feb. 6.—Chicago’s astounding 1921 divorce record —approximately 8,000 divorces granted durine the yeardoes not surprise Gustave (“Gus”) Wedemeir, Circuit Court divorce clerk, who has listened to more divorce cases than any man in Chicago. Judges hear divorces for three to six months at a time, but Gus—well, Gus is always on the job. •‘Big year?” said Gus. ‘‘Certainly. But why net? We still have red-blooded people, haven’t we? We always have lots of divorces, and I think it will always be so. But, after all, there are thousands of happy families. The , percentage of divorces is really small.” Judge Charles A. McDonald, Superior Court jurist, said it was the same old story all year— drunkenness, cruelty, desertion and inudelity. “The war, the eighteenth amendment, the depressloi in business all helped.” he said. “Nothing seems to act as a check. Same old story told in the same old way.” Mrs, Yohn Is Dead in Norwalk, Conn. Word of the death of Mrs. Addie Yohn, 74. formerly of this city, who died Saturday at the home of her son, Fred C. Yohn in Norwalk,' Conn., was received by friends here yesterday. Mrs. Yohn was the widow of Albert B. Yohn. who was in business in Indianapolis for many years. Mrs. Yohn is survived by two sons. Albert E. Yohn of New York City and Fred C. Yohn of Norwaik, Conn., and two sisters, Mrs. Eleanor Coffay, 5429 North Capitol avenue, and Mrs. Marion F. Saltmarsh of Jacksonville, Fla. The body will arrive in Indianapolis tomorrow. Funeral arrangements have not been complteted. LECTURE CLOSES REVIVAL. A lecture which has made him famous throughout the Middle West will be delivered this evening by Col. Jack Addie of the Salvation Army at Chicago, at the Merritt Place Methodist Church. All the Salvation Army forces of the city will unite for the occasion. This will be the closing service of the revival campaign which has been in progress at the Army No. 2 corps citadel, 1001 West Washington streets. In addition to the lecture of Colonel Addie a musical program will be. given.

ELECTRIC RAIL HEADS TO HOLD MEETING HERE Convention Will Discuss Many Advantages of Interurban Service. EDUCATIONAL CAMPAIGN The mid-year meeting of the American Electric Railway Association, to be held at the Claypool Hotel on Feb, 28, will bring together the executive heads and operating managers of electric railways from the entire country. Robert I. Todd, president of the Indianapolis Street Railway, is president of the association and entertainment of visiting members is in charge of a committee of which Harry Reid, president of the Interstate Public Service Commission, is chairman. Many subjects of vital importance to the welfare of the public as well as the industry will be discussed. ELECTRIC LINES BRING BUSINESS TO CITIES. The operation of passenger trains from and to Indianapolis by the many interurban lines and their connections, has accomplished much in the way of bringing business to merchants of the city, and providing pleasurable excursions into the country for city dwellers, but their value to the communities served and particularly Indianapolis, does not end there, according to these officials. The freight and express service offered by these lines has probably done more than any* other single agency to build up the commercial and jobbing Interests of the city, and has been the means of greatly extending its trade territory. This has not always been accomplished simply by making available freight or express service, but through cooperation of the railway* with merchants, and in some cases the pioneer work has been carried on by the electric lines themselves. This was forcibly brought out interurban officials say, by the party of 150 merchants, bankers and business men which came to Indianapolis a couple of weeks ago under the personal direction of J. C. Schade, general manager of the Winona Interurban Railroad, operating seventy miles of line running north and south from Goshen to Peru, and connecting with the Union Traction lines at the latter point. A commercial and lnlustrial survey made several months ago oy Mr. Schade, covering the towns on his line, developed that merchants were buy’ng their goods from jobbers and wholesalers in Chicago, Toledo, Cleveland, etc., and that salesmen from those centers were visiting the territory regularly. Five East and West steam lines also serve this district, which probably largely accounts for their activities. It was also found that as a result, banks were carrying 90 per cent of their exchange oalauees in those cities. KEEPING BUSINESS AT HOME. Towns on the Winona Interurban lines are approximately the lame distance from Chicago as from Indianapolis, with the advantage in fsrt’or of the latter from the jobbers’ or wholesalers’ standpoint, due to the fact that overnight delivery of sh.pmcnts is made via electric lines from Indranapolls, while deliveries irotn Chicago and other points mentioned are from two to five days. Asa result of this survey and its developments, a campaign of education was inaugurated In the towns on the line, through Chambers of Commerce and other civic bodies, having as its slogan, “Buy in Indiana.” The logic of this was quickly realized when It was made plain that several milion dollars went from the State annually to promote business In other States, which might be better kept at home, particularly as the Indianapolis market offered equal or better values and Inducements. Bankers also agreed to cooperate by increasing their balances In Indianapolis banks, and the trade excursion to promote acquaintance and friendship was the result. One town sent thirty representatives, one from each industry or business, and it is understood that several large orders were left with Indianapolis Jobbers and wholesalers. Prominent Local Teacher Succumbs Miss Ruth Anne Webb, for a number of years a teacher in the Indianapolis public schools, died at her borne, 2459 North New Jersey street, yesterday, following an illlness of about two years. Miss Webb was born in IndianapolU and Ims lived here all her life. She was graduated from Shortridge High School and the Teachers' Normal School and before her illness was a teacher at school No. 49. She was a member of the Central Avenue M. E. Church. ' The body was taken today to the home of her aunt, Mrs. Calvin I. Fletcher, 1031 North Pennsylvania street, where funeral services will be held. The exact time for the funeral has not been set. Miss Webb is survived by her mother. Mrs. Georgia Webb, widow of Robert Webb.

Hawaiians Imbibe 65 Per Cent Stuff HONOLULU. Feb. 6.—Hawaii, like other parts of the United States, can no longer legally procure good old-fashioned rye and bourbon whiskies with which to quench lts thirst, but as far as alcohol is concerned it has a drink which has the old standbys beaten by a good 30 per cent. Kecenf. laboratory tests made by the Hawaiian department of the United States Army show that okoiehao, the native Hawaiian liquor, contains 65 per cent alcohol. Districts of Honolulu where this liquor is known to be peddled by bootleggers have been placed under ban by local headquarters, officers and enlisted men of the department being forbidden to enter thesa districts.

90 DAYS’ SUPPLY OFCOAL IN HAND AS STRIKENEARS Stocks of Consumers Would Bridge Over Term Operator Says. NEW TORK, Feb. O.—A coal strike at the termination of the existing contract between operators and miners on March 31 would have no immediate effect on the nation, according to Thomas H. Watkins, president of the Pennsylvania Coal and Coke Corporation and regarded as one of the best informed operators in the bituminous coal industry. Asked today how the production of the country would be affected In the event of a strike, he answered; "In some districts not at all. In the non-union districts a substantial increase in production would follow a strike in the union field and the production of the country as a whole would be cut from 40 to CO per cent. “There would be no mmediate effect as the stocks In hands of consumers cover at least ninety days’ supply at the present rata of consumption. “Increased development now going on in the non-union districts naturally tends to reduce production from the union districts, and this is likely to- b) still more pronounced In 1922. CONSUMPTION 65 PER CENT. "It should be borne In mind that the country's consumptive demand today ts about 05 per cent of the greatest known maximum production.” Watkins declared "the operators are not profiteering” and cannot afford increased wages to the miners. “The margins of profit have in many cases been totally eliminated In the last few months.” “In what manner conld ths ultimate price of soft coal to ths consumer be reduced?" he was asked. ‘‘Reduction of wages, reduction of distribution,” was the answer. The consumer would get the benefit of whatever reductions were made in freight rates or wages, Watkins declared. “The demands of the operators when the present contract with the soft coal miners expires on March 31 have not yet been formulated, but presumably will ask for a rate of wages that will allow the meeting of competition from the nonunion operations,” Watkins continued. CANNOT BAEEIA" IGNORE SUPPLY AND DEMAND LAWS. ’’The union operator is controlled by general economic and competitive conditions and cannot safely ignore the laws of supply and demand, either In the labor or commodity markets." The non-union mines of the country are producing an increasingly large percentage of the total coal output, according to Watkins. “For instance, in Pennsylvania for the year 1921 the production of the union mines fell to about 43 per cent of the total production, while in 1920 it was 54 per cent of the total,” he said. The variations between the union miners' wage scale and that of the nonunion miners run from 30 to 50 per cent in different districts, according to Watkins. BRITISH ENVOY JEERED. TEHERAN, Feb. 6. —Persian Communists thronged the station when Sir Percy Loralne, the new British minister, arrived and Jeered him until dispersed by police.

ADDRESSES AND MUSIC MAY BE SENT BY RADIO Suspension of Amateur Broadcasting Not to Affect Certain Lines. # Special to Indiana Dally Times find Philadelphia Public Ledger WASHINGTON, Feb. 6. —Temporary suspension of radio broadcasting by amateurs because of Interference to other services announced by the Department of Commerce, will not affect broadcasting of music and addresses by/ x-adio telephone from central stations of the Westlnghonse Company, and other concerns'. It was said. That reassurance came from an official source after officials of the larger concerns had expressed some concern about the construction that might be placed on the regulations. An official of the Commerce Department said the rules were Issued because there was grave danger of the splendid service being broadcast by the larger concerns being retarded because of the unavoidable interference of numbers of amateurs whose stations are near those of the big companies. He said it was the intention of the department to call a meeting of all amateur® soon to talk over the situation with them and see if they could not continue their serious play with special wave lengths to be set by the department, lengths tfiat would not interfere with the larger services. Radio broadcasting, the department explained, is anew radio service which lias developed rapidly within the last few months and now embraces Government reports such as crop estimates and market quotations, health talks, weather forecasts, musical entertainments, such as operas and concerts by noted artists, instrumental music, lectures, sermons, news, reports of stolen automobiles and other kinds of crimes sent out by police departments,.warnings of floods and educational talks.—Copyright, 1922, by I’ublic Ledger Company.

TOPOGRAPHICAL SURVEY URGED Dr. Temple, Scientist-Con-gressman, Asks Funds for Study of U. S. Special to Indiana Dally Time* and Philadelphia Public Ledger. WASHINGTON, Feb. 6—Association at Washington's famous Cosmos Club with scientists, geologists and engineers has led Jtepresentative Temple of Pennsylvania to ask Congress for funds for a complete topographical survey of the United States. Dr. Temple, who, before coming to Congress, was professor of history and political science at Washington and Jefferson college, makes his home in Washington at the Cosmos Club. The prominent scientists who gather there Interested him in the need for adequate topographical maps of our territory and the economic waste of the present methods of surveys by various agencies. The Temple bill, which has been referred to the House Interstate and Foreign Commerce Committee, carries an appripriation of $950,000 for a rapid start on the work which, it is believed, will take twenty years to finish. It is estimated the project eventually will require expenditures of $40,000,000. Friends of the measure are pointing, however, to the expense of the present wasteful methods and the cost to the country of the delays in making adequate topographical maps. They hope the measure will start toward completion of the work begun in 1919 by the board of surveys and maps and will co-ordinate the map-making activities of the Government. —Copyright, 1922, by Public Ledger Company.
