FORD FLANS TO END STRIFE IN MEXICO BY PROVIDING WORK
fBy AtxocUted Press) DETROIT. July 25 Development of Mexico industrially and agriculturally to a point where it -will take its
place as one of the leading powers of
the world is the plan of Henry Ford.
This has been learned by The Associated Press from sources close to the manufacturer. Mr. Ford, it -was learned, nroposes to end forever the
internal strife in the southern repub
lic by "putting the people to work, as he expresses it, by making it possible for the peons to obtain educations, and by devious ways elevating the masses in the country to the highest possible standard. The motor manufacturer wants to keep the hands and minds of the Mexican common people occupied so "they will have no time for fighting." This, it became known, 13 the substance of Mr. Ford's theory, one that he hopes to carry out in the near future by erection of a number of factories throughout the more important states. In short, it was said, he hopes to reveal to the people of Mexico how they can help themselves. First Step Soon The first step in this program may be taken soon with establishment of a Ford Motor assembling plant in the state of Coahuila, probably in Saltillo. Business interests of that city and tha governor of the state are known here
to be eager to bring about the industrial development Mr. Ford, it is known, would enter upon hl3 development program immediately upon erection of the necessary factory buildings. Similar enterprises would be established by Mr. Ford in other parts of the country if the plan is carried out, it was intimated. Mr. Ford is said to believe that if the Mexicans once are taught the value of industry, better methods of agriculture and their possibilities individually and as a nation, the advance of the country will prove to be one of the most notable in history.
MURRETTE ' All that heart throb and delightful comedy which made the play, "Turn to the Right," one of the most popular offerings of the stage has been preserved in the screen version which i3 showing at the Murrette theatre. And in addition there is the added beauty which only can be attained in pictures which makes this motion picture of John Golden's stage success by Winchell Smith and John E. Hazzard one
that no lover of the artistic and dramatic will wish to miss.
It pictures a story whose appeal has

case in the stage nroduetion. The
result is an altogether satisfying per-! f ormance. In addition to Miss Starke, others prominent in the cast are Percy Marmont, Edward Langford, Emily FItzroy and Ottola Nesmith. "Wifo Against Wife" is a First National attraction. The locale of the story ranges from the artists' colony in the Latin quarter of Paris to New York City. The plot centers around the experience of Gabrielle Gautier, French model, who goes to New York, in ouest of Stan-
nard Dole, her artist friend and bene-
been testified to by millions of thea factor. She finds that for years Dole
. has been unhappily married. He pub
ductions "The Four Horsemen of the licly gives Gabrielle credit as beinjt
tne inspiration for his artistic achievements, and his wife becomes insanely
jealous of the little model. Even after Dole's death the widow continues her
hatred of Gabrielle and succeeds in
breaking up the home of the former model following her marriage to a successful physician Gabrielle's child, however, brings about a climax distinctly unique.
LOCAL 0RCHARD1STS TO GO TO VINCENNES
Local orchardists are planning to attend the special orchard demonstration and field tour which will be conducted in connection with the annual meeting of the Indiana Horticultural society at Vincennes this year, Aug. 1, 2 and 3. These dates represent a change from the earlier date set, made necessary by the rapid ripening of the peach crop. Frank W'esler and Keith Martin, members of the firm of Martin and
Wesler which is operating extensive orchards near New Paris, and Harry Shute of near Richmond are a few of
those who have annouced their inten
tion of eoing to Vincennes. Omer
Putoff of Richmond, Oliver Lafuze of
Liberty, and H. M. Gaar of Cambryige City, also are well known orchardists who may attend the meeting. ' ; As peaches will just be ripe at that
time, the trip promises enjoyment in
more ways than one, to the visitors
This particular time has been chosen
especially because Purdue has been
running several experiments in peacn
culture on farms near Vincennes, the results of which experiments will be
.viewed by the horticulturahsts.
Apocalypse" and "The Conquering
Power," rank him as the leading director of . the silent drama, has fully lived up to hi3 reputation in this latest Metro reLease. For those who are not familiar with the famous story, it portrays the adventures of a country youth, who is unjustly sentenced to a term in prison. While there h becomes acquainted with two crooks. When freed the youth determines to go back to his home and arrives to find his aged mother and little sister in direct poverty and about to have the mortgage foreclosed by the village skinflint. Through the aid of hi two crook friends a way is found to beat out the
grasping miser while the influence of
the trusting mother turns the two crooks to the right road and opens up for them a new life of love and happiness. MURRAY
The Murray theatre is well repre
sented in the motion picture field this
week with Pauline Starke in the leading role of the Whitman Bennett pro
duction, "Wife Against Wife," which was produced on the stage by George
Broadhurst under the title of "The
Price." Miss Starke does some of
her most interesting work in this picture. The story lends itself well to the purposes of the screen, and is
splendidly produced and cast through
out by Whitman Bennett. The work

genuously accomplished than was the

MURRAY VAUDEVILLE A novelty in terplschore heads the Murray bill the first half of the week. Brava. Michelina and Trijulli present a vivid and colorful exhibition of dancing in review form. The offering is well displayed and with the several songs accompanying the act, achieves a measure of approval. While Jimmy Dunn comes second in mention because of his late connection with Bert Williams as well as with Evelyn Nesbitt, he proves disappointing. His rapid fire humorous conversation goes over the head. It's too bad too, for Jimmy's got personality and an impressive stage presence. The musical offering by the Moretta Duo, violin and accordeon artists, is a praiseworthy feature of the bill. Both members of the team display talent and ability.
Sankus and Sylvers, "Fox Trot Acrobats,' 'are the "peppiest" couple in the acrobatical line appearing on the local boards. They open with a feature, also, that is beautifully executed. "Wife Against Wife," is the film attraction. MARVIN.

Contracts For Paving
Arouse Strong Protest CONNERSVILLE, Ind., July 25. The recently approved contracts for a mile and a half of paving in Connersville have aroused strong protest among some property owners who contend that a new form of paving to be used on some of the contracts is more expensive than is justifiable. The new system includes a granite surface to the paving making a construction cost of about $2.85 a square yard against an alleged cost of about two dollars for the ordinary paving. The new form of paving will cost property owners about 75 cents a front foot.

By JUNE ROBINSON VILLA NISCIOREE, Lake Lugano,
Italy. July 8. (By Mail to The Palladium.) Picturesque in ita setting of
mountains and stately cypress trees
and mirrored In the green-blue waters
of Lake Lugano, Villa Niecioree, tne home of Mr. and Mrs. John F. Urie, formerly of Richmond, is one of the garden spots on the famously beautiful Italian lake. -The villa, a bewitching touch of red against a green background with its flowering gardens facing the lake, has a frontage almost two blocks wide. Behind the house rise terraces of olive trees reinforced by stone walls with flights of stone steps leading from one terrace to another. Approaching the place from the lake
one sees a group of very tall cypresses at either end of the villa and two towering cypress trees one on either side of the entrance. Along the water is a stone wall with small willows outside mingled with plants which grow across the top of the wall. A flight of stone steps lead from the water into the garden of the conventional Italian type, rich with its abundance of tropical flowers in their brilliant variegated
colors. The villa is frescoed with brick work and stone work on the outside. The interior with its stone walls, some of them beautifully frescoed, and its
lovely tile floors, is typically Italian.
The place was built nearly one hun
dred years ago by the Marquis Bree-
sati. a former offlcer in Napoleon s army. It remained in the Breesati fam
ily until it became the property of
Mr. and Mrs. Urie. Mrs. Une s par
ents, Mr. and Mrs. W. D. Foulke, lived
at the villa for sometime and in mem
ory of their happy times there gave
running water to the villa. Until that time water had ben carried by the natives, as, like many of the Italian
villages, the inhabitants were too poor
to make such improvements. Celebrate Fourth

human food," she continued. "In one part of the country is a stone oven six feet long, dug in the side of a hill for the purpose of dealing with the victims. If the inhabitants of one village attack another, the prisoners are tortured terribly and then eaten. Theyj use the traditional three-legged caldron
and sometimes break the bones ana
legs of their victims beforehand and
let the body lie in a running stream, which method, they believe, makes the meat more tender." Tho writer told of the natives' ghastly souvenirs consisting of human hands worn round the neck or skulls kept In their houses. Sorcery and hypnotism, she said, also have a strong hold. There is even a sorcerers' university, where natives are taught for a period of two years. These students learn to do such things as train pois
onous snakes to submit to being car
ried in the hair and then to bite certain people when they are let loose.
I believe these natives understand
hynotism from end to end," she added.
They do table-turning with a sort of
alligator-shaped image. They ask
questions and see blue lights. By
peculiar dances they can hypnotize a
wnole audience. The dancers are won

of the 1913 basis in the latter month, according to statistics made public by the department of agriculture. The buying power of farm products in terms of other products stood at 76 per cent in March, having advanced from 65 per cent in January, which was a rise of 3 points over the low mark touched in November, 1921.
From December to March the statistics disclosed, the output of farms increased in price more rapidly than did commodities the farmers needed to buy, the percentage climbing to 71 by February and 5 points higher by March. Since that time, however, the price movements have been reversed, farm products gaining in less degree than those things required by the farmer, though more gradually than the preceding movement, the index dropping one point for April two for May and one for June.
Freak Pigs Exhibited By Farmer Near Eaton EATON, Ohio, July 25. Two newhorn dead pigs, joined together, was a freak of nature exhibited by Harry Bennett, farmer, four miles northwest of Eaton, on the New Paris pike.

The villa is very close to the Swiss-Italian border and an Italian torpedo boat stationed nightly almost directly across from it to watch for smugglers and other border violators, played its great searchlight to and fro across the villa. Mr. and Mrs. Urie, with their daughter Janet, are expecting to go to the United States in September for a visit with Mr. and Mrs. Foulke at Richmond.

PIGS VALUED HIGHER THAN NATIVE WIVES

of New Guinea were described m an interview given by Miss Beatrice Grimshaw, the novelist, who has just returned to England after 15 years' residence in the South Sea islands. A love of solitude and far-away places led the writer to penetrate places never before visited by a white woman.
Women are out of luck m .New Guinea, she said. Modern ideas of equality and independence have never reached them. There they do all the heavy work and their husbands kill them at will, sometimes eating them afterwards. Marriage is by purchase. "It entirely depends upon the looks of the wife and the rapacity of her parents
how many pigs and clam shell bracelets must be paid by the bridegroom," Miss Grimshaw explained. "The pig is generally considered to be of much more value than the wife. Payment is made on the instalment plan and it stopped, the bride's parents take her back again, for she is useful asa universal slave. "The woman does the proposing. I remember a cannibal boy coming to
me with finger in his mouth and say
ing, in the coyest manner, 'Girl, she want to marry me." "The marriage age is 12 or 13 for the girls and 17 for the men, but the youthful husband finds himself at a disadvantage, for the older men can generally supply more pigs." Miss Grimshaw told of her observa
tions in the wild stretches of New Guinea where cannibal tribes live. "I

7 Tubercular Cattle Found In Herd of 251 SHELBYVILLE, Ind., July 25. The heaviest tuberculosis infection in any herd yet tested was found in a test of 251 cattle last week, which showed seven reactors. These cattle will be killed this week. Of a total of 3,010 cattle tested to date, SI have been found diseased. Shelby county has had the advantage of more assistance of state and federal authorities in the testing work than any other county in the state, and testing in the future will not be as extensive as in the past. Testing
is only done on applications filled out and filed with the county agent. It is the plan of the county farm bureau to have all cattle in the county tested
in time to eliminate the disease irom the whole county. . . t Legion to Discuss Forming Wayne "40 and 8" Chapter Organization of a Wayne county chapter of the "40 and S" will be up for discussion st the American Legion post meeting in the K. of P. hall Wednesday.
