PAN-AMERICAN DELEGATES START BUSINESS PROGRAM

FIRST SESSIONS TO SEE NAMING OF CUBAN CHIEF Diplomats of Twenty-One Nations Go to Work After Welcome. HUGHES TO TAKE LEAD Determination to Cast Out Politics Marks Opening of Havana Parley. BY HARRY W. FRANTZ United Staff Correspondent HAVANA, Jan. 18.—Where statesmen had agreed tacitly to ignore it, the Cuban public brought into the open today the Nieraguan question from the background of the PanAmerican conterence. Flags of the twenty-one participating nations were hoisted ceremoniously over the meeting place. A popular demonstration greeted the Nicaraguan flag. It was the only one cheered. Martinez Ortiz, Secretary of State for Cuba, host of the conference, was prepared to express Cuba’s greeting to her sister republics and her homage to the ideal of Pan-American-ism ; Alejandro Lira, president of the Chilean delegation, was to reply, in behalf of all the delegations. Cuban May Head Conference The election of Dr. Antonio S. De Rustamente, chief of the Cuban delegation, as permanent president of the conference, was next in order, a tribute not alone to Cuba, but to a statesman distinguished world-wide for his effort to encourage the international rule of law. The announcement of plans for organization of the conference also was in order, a matter of vast importance considering that nearly 100 delegates, 300 secretaries, clerks and translaters, and 100 correspondents are engaged. A week of preliminary spectacle, entertainment and hectic planning had left all delegations in a mood for serious work. In every mind the thought had grown that the definition and clarification of principles of international law affecting the destinies of American republics is the transcendental subject awaiting attention. Tpy to Remove Politics The atmosphere has developed propitiously to efforts in this direction. The whole situation turns on the ability of the United States delegation to shift the international criterion from a political to a juridical basis. This accomplished, the sore places in inter-American politics may heal without lancing. Amid it all, the life-long interest of Charles Evans Hughes in international law, and the personal prestige accrued therefrom, may prove the dominant factor in the drift of events. A committee on initiatives was appointed Tuesday at a meeting of the twenty-one delegation presidents and it was pointed out by some that this may prevent inclusion of any controversial political issues in the official agenda of the conference. The committee on initiatives—which was used at the Sanitago, Chile, Pan-American conferencewill listen to all new proposals which are outside the official agenda. Should the committee vote out the proposal, then it goes before the full body of the conference. However, it was believed that the committee would adopt a unanimous consent rule and some observers say this will prevent many of the political issues ever being voted out of committee.

Temporary Advantage by Not Doing Right Thing Never Pays, Says ‘John D. ’

One-Time ‘Octopus’ Now Kindly Old Man; Delights to Hand Out Dimes. This is the second of a series of three stories by Charles M. McCann of the United Press New York staff, who went to Ormond Beach to learn how John D. Rockefeller is passing the late davs of his life. Tomorrow the third and last of the series will be carried, tellim? how RoCKefeller, in his metamorphosis from oil kina to kindly old man, Is -nucklinft at a Joke on fate. BY CHARLES M. McCANN United Press Staff Correspondent (Copyright. 1028, by United Press) /"\RMOND BEACH, Fla., Jan. 18.—The crowded hour of John D. Rockefeller's day begins, with almost unfailing regularity, at 10:05 a. m. Then, alone in the tonneau of his closed motor car, the one-time “Octupus” starts for the golf course a quarter of a mile from his home to distribute his famous dimes, chat with'any one he may meet, friend or stranger, and play his six holes of golf. The United Press correspondent waited one morning for Rockefeller’s arrival at the course. As Rockefeller’s car drew up at the roadside near the club house, fifty yards from the first tee, the tall, stooped figure of the former oil monopolist emerged; and with his chauffeur’s help “John D.” shed a dark raglan overcoat, a gray coat and a gray silk vest. He stood blinking in the sun and smiling for a moment, waiting apparently eagerly for the never-failing group of curious visitors to approach. Rockefeller’s smile broadened as they bunched in front of him —stammering women, giggling girls and diffident men. There were a few words of inconsequential chat with each, “Yes, I’m feeling fine, thank you;” “Isn’t it a fine day?” “Well, I hope youre not disappointed”— ’ to a girl who had said she always wanted to see him.

THEN he moved off toward the first tee. Awaiting him on the intervening putting green was his daily golf partner, Gen. Adelbert Ames, 91, militarily erect —the oldest living American general. They greeted each other merrily, and, arm-in-arm, the aged general and the capitalist, two and one-half years his junior, moved on another few yards to talk to Neil Young and James Thompson, two of the professionals at the course. Three more tourists were awaiting Rockefeller, two girls and their escort. Another few words of chat and ‘‘John D.” reached into the left-hand pocket of his trousers. “Would you care to accept a dime from me as a souvenir of our meeting?” he asked the girls, bashfully. Os course, they would, and with a smile he went onto the course. Rockefeller stood there for a moment," looking across the course, in long, dark gray trousers, tan shoes, a light gray woolen shirt with buttoned tucks in its sleeves, and a gray sleeveless coat sweater. His gray silk cap was one of those with earlaps, held up by a ribbon tied in a bow on top. tt n a HE greeted his little darky, —very dark, boy caddy, who grinned as the tall, white old man held a hand out over his head and laughed as if to say he was getting

For two years after Harry met Genevieve at the State fair here and taught her fancy roping ana riding tricks. They toured the country with rodeo shows. Some one*, stole Harry’s auto and their outfits at Del Rio. Texas, early in December. They “bummed” rides here. Then they quarreled and decidea to go their separate ways. Genevieve changed her mind in a few hours and wanted Harry back. The Times printed her appeal and her picture. That picture re-united them. Harry went to Terre Haute; then to Kansas City where he worked in the stockyards. During an attack of "flu” and in the hospital he realized he needed Genevieve.

shorter than ever instead of growing up. He put on his gray gloves, limbered up by waving his arms and doing a sort of setting-up exercise that consisted of leaning over backward, teed his ball and swung. It was a surprisingly accurate shot, straight down the fairway, and of good length. “Does he do that often?” one of the professionals was asked. “He’d be as good as there is if he was sixty years younger.” Neil Young, professional, replied. “John D.”T>ad walked up to the tee somewhat haltingly and showing his age. But when he strode after his ball he became suddenly erect, and his arms swung out strongly. From then on it was business—business as serious in a way as that which he sloughed off sixteen years age. He was on the green in 3 and made one of a series of perfect putts for a 5. He did a simil. r good job at the second. He skipped the third and fourth holes, two of the longest on the course—doctor’s orders. He finished at the eighth. A private road divides the Hairpin course there at the eighth and fourteenth holes, and “John D.s” car was awaiting him. As usual also there was a group of people waiting for him. LAUGHTER came from down the course, and a ball landed eighteen inches from the eighth hole. Rockefeller, General Ames and Father Partick J. Lennon of New York, his house guest, who had started a threesome, came into sight with a white-bearded man and a girl. Their game had been welded into a flvesome, apparently. Rockfeller holed out—the putt near the hole had been his—and drawing off his gloves moved toward his car with a wave and a wish that they might play together again. The group Os people moved up. “I am an Avery, Mr. Rockefeller, and I wanted to see you,” a woman said. “An Avery? I'm proud to be an Avery myself”—he is of Avery descent on his father’s side. “Are we related?” “I’m Mrs. Rosa Avery Stone of Herkimer County, New York, and I’m 77 myself.” And so on. The man in the party, E. J. Phillipson of Watertown. N. Y., had a camera and posed Rockefeller, Mrs. Stone, Mrs. W. D. Gildersleeve and Mrs. Fred A. North, who completed the group. “Would you like me to take off mv glasses?” asked Rockefeller. “The sun might spoil your picture.” nun T TE posed for two photographs, JLJL holding his round rimless gold spectacles/ while Mrs. Stone hid behind h fr white skirts the two canes she uses in walking and left her white bobbed haid to tell her;, age. A golf twosome crossed the road toward the ninth hole—a bride and bridegroom, they looked. “I hope we didn’t keep you waiting,” said Rockefeller. Being assured that he had not, he asked the girl: “Vftmld you mind taking a dime from me?” He said good-by to Mrs. Stone and the rest, after giving them dimes, and a foursome passed. Rockefeller halted the man in the party after greetings had been exchanged. “Could you persuade your ladies to take one of my dimes?” he

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

Harry returned to Indianapolis. He didn’t know where to find Genevieve. A waiter told him of her picture in The Times. He searched the files at the Times building, found the picture and took his troubles to police headquarters. Miss Leona Foppiano, in charge of the missing persons bureau, remembered she'd seen Genevieve near Washington St. and Capitol Ave., several times. Harry went there and paced up and down. Genevieve, on her way to the Y. W. C. A., where she’d been staying while she worked in lunch rooms, and just happened to be passing by in a Washington street car. She sighted Harry’s big hat—and well, every thing’s all right, old world.

asked, and the three girls who accompanied the lone man came up. tt tt tt Rockefeller appro ached the United Press correspondent who was watching proceedings. “Won't you take one. too?” he asked. He was warned that the watcher was a newspaper man, there to look him over. “Well, how do I look?” he asked, smiling and proffering the dime—like all, fresh from the mint. He was told how he looked and raid as he shook hands: “I’m feeling fine, and I'm glad I look all right, I'm much obliged for telling me you were a newspaper man.” He moved toward his car, but called out: “I have a compliment for you,” he said approaching again. He paid the compliment—thanks for the warning—and added: “I think the newspaper men are different from what they used to be.” “Maybe they found it pays,” it was suggested. “Yes, it does, in any walk of life, he said. “Some people may gain a temporary advantage by not doing the right thing. But it is a superficial view. It never pays. Never. It takes some of them a long time to find It out.” If the thought that “John D's” look was ‘reminiscent did him an injustice then probably it was just an old man's self-depreciation cropping out. b JOHN D.” never has apologized for his bitterly attacked industrial and financial career. He always has maintained stoutly that he played the game. Rockefeller said good-by and moved over to his car. The. chauffeur was waiting, with an armful of wraps. The gray silk vest went on, and the coat. The overcoat was waved aside, and Rockefeller drove off home with a bow and a smile. His hour over.

BOY INJURED BY AUTO Runs in Front of Car While Playing Marbles. Paul S. Scalf, 12, of 2415 N. Olney St., was injured Tuesday night when he ran into the street in front of an automobile driven by Charles Shauman, 3705 E.

SENATE TO ACT ON U. S. POLICY IN NICARAGUA Investigation Is Likely to Be Authorized at Next Committee Session. if ii United Press WASHINGTON, Jan. 18. The Senate Foreign Relations Committee probably will authorize an investigation of the American Nicaraguan policy at its meeting next Wednesday, Chairman Borah said today, after the committee had discussed Nicaraguan conditions for two hours in executive session. Previously, the committee had indicated it would await conclusion of the Pan-American conference at Havana before an investigation. Members today expressed belief there was no reason for further delay, inasmuch as President Coolidge is returning tomorrow. Two resolutions, introduced by Senators Heflin and Wheeler, were discussed. Heflin's directs withdrawal of American marines from Nicaragua and Wheeler’s would authorize investigation of American investments. The resolutions may be combined, Borah indicated, or anew resolution embodying the spirit of both may be framed by the committee. Any investigation would be undertaken by the Foreign Relations Committee or a special committee to be appointed by Vice President Dawes. The committee also discussed the Blease resolution directing that all laws, particularly the prohibition law, be enforced on foreign diplomats in Washington. No action was taken, however, apd it was indicated the Blease measure either will be pigeon-holed or reported unfavorably. Hit at U. S. Policy By United Press BUENOS AIRES, Jan. 18,-Strong sentiment for discussion of the Nicaraguan question at the Havana Pan-American conference was voiced privately today in political circles all over South America and openly in newspapers. Analyses of President Coolidge's speech at the conference generally agreed in charging that it had ig- | nored questions vital to relations of | the western republics. I “‘The specter of Nicaragua stalked at the conference while Coolidge delivered pleasing generalities,” commented La Razon of Buenos Aires. ‘“The dismemberment of Poland began in much the same way as has the military occupation by the United States in Central American territory. “The Yankees must be sure of their domination of the entire continent by the weight of their miserable dollars," said the Diario Espanol, the organ of the Spanish colony, “when they-have the audacity to send their President to open the conference without fearing that their depredations will be thrown In their faces.”

Keen Sniff Judge Refuses to Parole Boy to Brother Who Took Drink.

Federal judge Robert c. BALTZELL'S ability to detect a liquor-laden breath is the indirect cause of Charles Edward Elliott, 21, Louisville, being in the Marion County jail instead of at liberty today. The direct cause of Elliott’s incarceration was a drink of liquor taken Tuesday morning at Louisville by his brother, John, who came here Tuesday afternoon to obtain custody of Charles, whom Baltzell had decided to release on a suspended sentence of fifteen months. John and another brother, Joseph, had been promised custody ol Charles by Baltzell and a deputy United States marshal had been sent to the jail to bring the youth to court. Noticing a suspicious odor, the court asked: “Have you been drinking?” “Well, yes, I did take a drink before I left home,” John admitted. “You should be arrested for intoxication,” Baltzell said. “I am not going to release Charles to anyone who has been drinking. You may be the cause of him serving fifteen months at Leavenworth. “I will have the Department of Justice investigate your home and if your action of today is typical of his home life, I will not suspend his sentence. He probably would be under better influence at Leavenworth than at his home.” Promises “never to touch another drop” failed to move the court. Charles was arrested with Roger Henry O’Neil and James Carl Mullikin, both 17, charged with driving a stolen automobile from Louisville, Ky., to Columbus, Ind., while intoxicated. Sentences of a year and a day each for the two younger beys have been suspended. CLOTHIERS HEAR TALK Sales Official Addresses Closing Convention Session. T. K. Kelly of the T. K.

(NEA Service. New York Bureau.) Frances St. John Smith, 18, daughter of wealthy New York parents, who has disappeared from Smith College.

By T nitcd Press NEW YORK, Jan. 18.—Authorities throughout the East today—all the way from Maine to Pennsylvania—were searching for two young collegians who have disappeared from their schools. Miss Frances St. John Smith disappeared from Smith College at Northhampton, Mass., last week and has not been seen since. Today it was learned that a search was under way for Hugo Bezdek, Jr., son of the noted Penn State football coach, who did not return to Dartmouth College, at Hanover, N. H., after the Christmas holidays. There is a striking resemblance in the two disappearances both were worried about their studies. Miss Smith, daughter of a New York banker, was not failing, but her grades were not high. Bezdek had been warned before he left his school for the Christmas vacation that he might be dropped if his grades did not improve. , The girl has been reported seen in many sections of the East. Maine, Massachusetts and other New England States are being searched. One man reported having seen a girl answering Miss Smith's description in Brooklyn. A search has been under way in New York for young Bezdek, as it is not believed that he returned to Hanover.

SCHOOL SITE OFFERED —% Irvington Plot to Cost $42,000 Is Considered. A proposed site for an Irvington high school suggested by Walter E. Jenney. landscape gardener, at Audubon Rd. and Pleasant Run Blvd., is understood to be under consideration by school board members. The estimated cost of the four and one-half acre plot is $42,000. The site is just east of Jameson Park and is three blocks west of Pleasant Run golf course. School officials believe the site would prove more advantageous than the Butler campus, which has been offered for sale to the board, because of the rapid growth north of Irvington and the more limited development south, due to B. & O. and Pennsylvania Railroad tracks. Jenney, who owns most of the tract, offered his ground for $32,000, estimating the cost of two other small parcels at SIO,OOO. Ten acres of vacant lots are availale just north of the proposed site for an athletic field, Jenney told school officials. LUMBER PARLEY OPENS President Delivers Address at First Convention Session. Forty-Fourth annual convention of the Retail Lumber Dealers Association of Indiana opened at the Claypool today. President Fred Wehrenberg, Ft.

GERMAN RAIDER EXPLOITS TOLD ‘Sea Devil’ Reveals War Adventure. Telling the stories of the adventures and exploits that made his spectacular career during the World War a legend of the sea, Count Felix Von Luckner of Germany spoke before more than 350 men and women at the closing banquet of the Indiana Builders’ Supply Association at the Claypool last night. Detailed to destroy vessels carrying saltpetre for the allies, the count sailed a camouflaged schooner under the Norwegian flag. His plans were worked out with true Teutonic thoroughness and so perfectly that he succeeded in runnig the British blockade and sinking fourteen allied boats. The “Sea Devil” crowned his unique career by never taking a life, according to history. As soon as he had covered an enemy ship he had the officers and crew transported to his own boat, where they were shown every courtesy while they were taken to South America or German prison camps. The dynamic German, who ran away to seat at 10, has had a life as colorful and varied as any hero of fiction. This man, who has received signal honois from his own land and from the United States, has been a boxer, and at one time cleaned brasses at the Hotel Majestic in New York. His great daring brought him to the attention of the Kaiser, and thereby won him the honor of being the only man ever raised from the ranks to a command in the German navy. ‘MAGIC MUD’ COMPANY HEAD AMONG MISSING Money In Many of 3,000 Letters Piled Up at Newcastle.

CITY MUST DO WITHOUT NEW BASEBALL LOT Perry Interests Do Not Propose to Seek Further; Refuse North Side Site. Indianapolis will be without anew ball park this summer, according to indications today following denial Tuesday of a permit to build a $500,000 plant on E. Thirty-Eighth St. The board of zoning appeals Tuesday denied the petition to build the new park south of the State fairground along E. Thirty-Eighth St., after several hundred property protested the location. Martin M. Hugg, ball club attorney, said the north side site had been selected and the Perry interests “did not propose to spend a half million dollars on some site selected by others.” Perry Declines Comment Hugg said his clients would not seek a third site for their proposed recreational park and that Indianapolis probably would not have anew park for several years. There is a short time lease on the W. Washington St. location which would make it impractical to im-px-ove the park there, Hugg said. James A. Perry, club owner, declined to comment of the city’s action in rei using permission-'to erect the north side stadium except to say “let the public judge.” The board of zoning appeals vote was 5 to 3 against the project. Councilman Austin H. Todd changed his vote to break the tie after the park board announced it was unanimously against the improvement. Several court decisions have upheld the park board’s authority over ground within 500 feet of a boulevard and it was believed the park board ruling was final. Follows Other Rulings Michael E. Foley, park board member, said the proposed park was “not in keeping with his concept of a boulevard.” “I feel the residents of that section are entitled to peace, quiet and happiness without disturbance from a private business enterprise,” Foley said. Park Board President John E. Milnor pointed out the decision was in accordance with former rulings of the board on proposed business projects along boulevards. , George Rinier and Edward Holt were attorneys for remonstrators.
