PARLIAMENT IS OPENED;PEACE, IS KING'S PLEA George V Appeals for World to Use Knife on Vast Armaments. BY KEITH JONES CnJteil Press Staff Correspondent LONDON, Nov. 10.—King George opened the new parliament today w, th an appeal for international cooperation to solve world disarmament and economic problems. “My government is giving particularly close attention to the preparations for the approaching disarmament conference,” the king said in his speech delivered to parliament assembled in the house of lords. "I am convinced that the success of the conference will produce great universal benefit.” Without mentioning the tariff question, the king called the attention of the nation to the fact that in the general election it gave “a clear and emphatic mandate” to the national government to carry out any proposals deemed necessary to revive ocnfldence in British finances and to restore a favorable trade balance. The Conservatives, who control parliament py a large majority, have demanded establishment of tariffs.

Ceremony Is Colorful The usual impressive ceremony and colorful costumes at the banquet belied a business depression and a depressed currency. The king indicated the government would accept the Canadian invitation to attend the fourthcoming Empire conference at Ottawa and said "it is my earnest prayer” that the India round table conference may be successful. Lady Astor, American born member of parliament, was one of the first to enter the house of commons in the usual helter-skelter rush to lay claim to the best seats. She bantered with the Laborite extremists as they tagged their seats with white cards and then trooped out into the jobby. ‘‘My lords, members of the house of commons,” the King said in beginning his speech with reference to foreign affairs, "my relations with foreign powers continue friendly. My government intends to pursue a policy of promoting peace and good will and to continue an active interest in the work of the League of Nations. Prays for Success "The India round table conference continues its work and the conference with representatives of Burma will assemble very shortly. “It is my earnest prayer that the deliberations of both may be crowned with success. “My government received from the government of the Dominion of Canada a proposal that the economic conference which was adjoin ned in 1930 should be convened at Ottawa as soon as possible. This invitation has been welcomed by my ministers and will be considered In a most sympathic spirit and with earnest desire to come to some mutually advantageous arrangement with the governments of my dominions.”

He was burned seriously, although expected to recover. Harry, who is small for his age said he was playing with the other boys when they seized him, poured oil on him from a can they found and then touched him with a flaming stick. He rolled down an embankment into a draining ditch to put out the flames, he said.

Quick was signed by Arthur Bruner, investigator for Attorney-General James M. Ogden, who made the corruption accusation. It was filed over the protest of Harley F. Hardin, Grant county prosecutor, whose office is being investigated by Hufsmith. Hufsmith today hoped to establish a link between Marion officials and law violators. Hardin, in protesting against the affidavit, pointed out that he had prosecuted eightynine liquor cases in Grant county since Jan. 1. “In view of that record, how could I be connected w T ith them?” Hardin asked. Ogden announced that the special investigation would not halt with dismissal of the grand jury Saturday. “We have no intention of quitting,” he said. “We’ll continue until this thing is cleaned up.”
