They are mission aries The letter, written some time ago, says: “We like Batang very much. It is a pretty place naturally—a valley protected by high mountains on all sides. We are 9,000 feet high. The climate is deiightiul. We have good, clear cold water coming down from the mountains. and fine gardens. We have potatoes, peas, lettuce, onions and radishes planted now and a fine crop of strawberries coming on. Tibetan Servants “I have planted flowers in our yard: cosmos, nasturtiums, sweet peas and pansies. Everything grows well here and the season is earlier than at home. We haven't had any real cold weather since we got here and the summers are pleasant. “Our house is comfortable and pleasant. It is like the native houses on the outside—hard clay and stones Inside it is like a United States home. Thfe walls are plastered and some are tinted. The furniture, made by native carpenters according to United States patterns, is good. “We have a Chinese cook—a good one—a Tibetan woman to scrub and wash and carry water, and Tibetan gardener. Servants are cheap here and they need the money we pay them. “Jolly and Friendly” "Roderick and I are busy learning the language, which Is Interesting, and I think we are getting along very well. I know* the names of. all the things about the house and can talk a good bit to Sanjedroma, the Tibetan woman who does our work. She, like most of the Tibetans, is very jolly and friendly and a good worker. “They are quite good looking, especially the women. Unlike most heathen folks, the women seem to rule the roost and Instead of being disappointed at the birth of a girl, they prefer them to boys. “They neglect their children sadly, though, through Ignorance, and most of the babies die. They are so dirty and insanitary.” PRICE RISE IS PREDICTED Speakers Before Breeders Declares Hog Supply Diminishing. Substantial increases in hog prices within a year was pred cted by Fred H.

HUGHES MEXICAN - POLICY HINGES ON OBREGONSUCCESS If Huerta Wins Revolt Crisis May Arise in Southern Republic. Bit United press WASHINGTON, Jan. B.—'The Washington government today awaited outcome of steps it has taken to support to the limit the Obregon government of Mexico against the de La Huerta revolutionists. The Hughes Mexican policy will stand or fall on the failure or success of De La Huerta. If Obregon wins. Hughes probably wiil be credited wth a master stroke in his support to the present government of Mexico. If de La Huerta wins, & crisis over affairs in the southern republic may arise. The embargo placed by President Coolidge on the private shipment of arms of ammunition to Mexico, which was admittedly directed against the De La Huerta forces, was met with defiance in revolutionary circles here today. Will Lnunch Offensive Spokesman for the revolutionists declared not only would De La Huerta continue to get sufficient munitions of war, but predicted the revolutionary forces soon would launch a major offensive to dislodge Obregon from power. The presidential proclamation declaring an embargo on the sending of armaments to Mexico expressly made provision for the sale by the American Government of war supplies to Obregon. The United States recently sold 5,000 rifles. 5,000,000 rounds of ammunition and eight airplanes to Obregon and it is thought more such material may be sold if needed by the Mexican government Alaska has no more white residents than there are in the Equitable building of New York.

Woodrow Woodbridge proceeded today to the Howan province to seek the whereabouts of Julino Kilen, woman capt.ve of Chinese bandits, who has disappeared. When last seen Mrs. Kilen was mounted on a white horse, towering h gh above the squat figures of the bandits who swarmed about her on foot as they led her steed away over the hills. The woman was captured when bandits raided a mission and shot several foreigners, imprisoning others.

PETERSON BELIEVED SAFE Several Other Persona Known Here Member ol Party. Belief that the party of thirteen m'selonariea including Mrs. R. A. Peterson, daughter of the Rev. Charles M. Fillmore, 1914 Commerce Ave., who left Indianapolis Sept. 1, for Tibet, had not arrived at the bandit Infested territory was strengthened today by a checking up of letters from the expedition and the route they were to take. Members of the group are: Mr. and Mrs. R. A. Peterson and two children; Mr and Mrs. J C. Ogden and two children of Carlisle, Ky.; Dr. and Mrs T. C. Whoriey of Columbus.

They then traveled by rail to Yunnanfu, from where the Rev. Fillmore received a letter in December. The letter stated the expedition would rmain in Yunnanfu until after Christmas. Since Yunanfu is a distance of 1.200 miles from Tibet, an eight weeks Journey by caravan, the Rev. Fillmore exprts-ed the belief his daughter and her companions could not have advanced far. The Rev. and Mrs. J. S. Martin, f Greenwood, Ind., aunt and uncle of Mrs. Rhoderlck A. McLeod, who have been in Tibet since 1917 with the group that was trapped by the bandits, also said they believed their neice. her husband and three children, Llora, Duncan, and Shelton, might ha vs escaped by leaving Tibet earlier than was expected.

If the motorists do not take it upon themselves to reduce the numbei of fatal accidents it will be only a question of time until we will have speed governors placed on all machines manufactured and sold.

COUNCIL FACTIONS RESUME FIGHT AS. WISE TAKES CHAIR Perk Salary Assured, but Templeton Left Out in the Cold, With Walter W. Wise, Republican, as new president, the city council today promised internal harmony and cooperation with city departments. This, despite lack of cooperation Monday night. Wise was elected unanimously Monday night after his name was before the council by Lloyd D. Clay* combe and seconded by Ben H. Thompson. Clay combe was unante mously elected president pro tem. The Republican majority, composed of six members, functioned perfectly during the election. The three Democratic councilmen offered no opposition. Hardly had President Wise taken the chair and announced his program of harmony and cooperation for 1924 until factions and parties again were evident In voting on important measures. In rapid order, the council suspended rules on an ordinance appropriating $3,000 salary for Benjamin Perk as public utility consultant to Taylor E. Groninger, and then refused to appropriate the same sum for the salary of the assistant chief smoke inspector. Only two cuncilmen, Claycombe and Bramblett, both Republicans voted to suspend the rules. Inspector’s Salary Opposed "When they appoint an inspector according to the ordinance. I’ll vot aye," said Councilman Heydon W* Buchanan. "What’s the inspector done an - wav?” aaked Councilman Ben H, Thompson In opposing suspension o 2 lutes. The council again refused to coma to the aid of the park board when no ection waa taken on an ordinance ap* preprinting $18,500 to pay off interest on bonded indebtedness. Councilman Claycombe offered a compromise by amending the amount to SIO,OOO, but a motion of Buchanan to table the amendment carried 7-2 with only Claycombe and Bramblett voting "no.” An ordinance authorizing a tempos rary loan of $300,000 for the board of health was passed under suspension of rules, but the other ordinance providing for the loan was referred to the finance committee. The proposed Joan will carry the health board expenses until the May Installment ot taxes. An ordinance creating the office of supervisor of traffic at a salary of $3,000 a year was Introduced. It is understood the measure is merely to Increase the salary of Traffic Captain Michael J. Glenn. j Other ordinances Introduced: Changing the name of Gemmer BL* between Draper St. and State to ”E. lowa St." Requiring the C., C„ C. 4 St L railway to maintain a watchman at Golay St., between 7:30 a. m. and 4:30 p. m.

A public hearing was held on amending the zoning ordinance extending the business district at College and Fairfield Avos. There were no protests, but Councilman Claycombe recommended that hereafter the city plan, commission be consulted on all zoning amendments.
