Mc Quillan THREAT TO WITHDRAW FROM RHINE SEEN IN BONAR LAW'S LETTER (By Associated Press) LONDON, Oct. 7. A sensation has been caused by a letter from Andrew Bonar Law, upholding the British government's attitude in the near! eastern crisis, which is given conspicuous publicity in all the London newspapers today. The pronouncement is widely held to be equivalent to a direct threat to withdraw the British troops from the Rhine and completely terminate the entente, unless France comes into line with the British policy in. the near east. Bonar Law's position as potential head of a. potential conservative government in the near future, and his intimate relations with several of the present cabinet ministers, are regarded as giving his views special weight Indeed it is -surmised that the cabinet members, especially Prime Minister Lloyd George and Colonial Secr tary Chruchill had something more than mere previous knowledge of the launching of this utterance at the moment of Lord Curzon's mission to Paris. "We are at the straits and Constantinople," says the letter, "not by our own action alone, but by the will of the allied powers which won the war, and America is one of these' powers. "We cannot act alone ad tb ""policeman of the world. Our duty will be to say plainly to France that if she is not prepared to support us, we shall be unable to bear the burden alone, but we shall have no alternative except to imitate the gov ernment of the United States, and re strict our attention to safeguarding the more immediate interests of tha empire." The general opinion of the news papers is that the letter is timely and commendable.

This general agreement now will be submitted to the French and British cabinets, which are in session, and will be referred to Rome by the Italian representative here. There is considered to be little doubt, however, that all will accept and that the details will be worsea out this after noon so that the allied generals at Mudania can resume their conference in full agreement with each other as to the terms to be offered the Turks Greeks Must Leave The solution agreed upon provides three steps for the return of Thrace to the Turks as follows: First, the Greek army and those of the population desiring to leave must evacuate immediately. Second, a Turkish civil administra tion will be installed at the same time the allied troops take the place of the Greek forces to preserve order. Third, the Turkish army will be allowed to cross he straits of the Dardanelles and enter Thrace only upon conclusion of a peace treaty, and it will not be until that time that eastern Thrace is completely restored to Turkey.

CAMBRIDGE CITIZENS WILL NOT VOTE UPON LIGHT PLANT DISPOSAL (Special to The Palladium) CAMBRIDGE CITY, Ind., Oct. 7. There is now no possibility that Cambridge City people can vote on the question of the disposal of the elec tric service branch of the municipal plant on November 7, the date of the general state election, for the reason that the appraisers appointed by the Wavne circuit court to determine the valuation of the electric service prop ertv have not yet completed their work. Under the law a thirty-day notice of an election to determine the dispose tion of a municipally owned utility is required, and the town . board would not be permitted to advertise such an election until the appraisers' report has been filed. It is generally understood that the three appraisers for th local electric service utility are not in agreement on its valuation. An expert from one of the large eastern electric appliance manufacturing concerns has been ask ed to inspect the local plant to figure on Its valuation, ana,' it is said, the appraisers hope to hatmonize their conflicting views on his estimates The expert is expected to arrive in Cambridge City the first of next week. Make $30,000 Offer An offer of $30,000 has been made by the Interstate corporation, a Chi cago concern which operates the electric utility at Connersville, for the electric utility of the local municipal plant.

PUBLIC OF AMERICA IS URGED BY FRENCH TO BELIEVE IN KEMAL By EDWARD J. BING CONSTANTINOPLE, Oct. 7. Ap. peal to American public opinion to believe in Mustapha Kemal, in an hour when the "chances of war or peace are fifty-fifty," was made today in an exclusive statement to the United Press by a French negotiator, who was hurrying to Mudania for resumption of the armistice conference. The allies went to the meeting place today to answer Kemal's ultimatum that he must' have Thrace at once. They had instructions from their government to refuse this demand, but to avert a clash. The French delegate, declaring It was a toss-up whetner it is peace or war, vigorosiv upheld the Ottoman demand for Thrace, although not approving immediate occupation. A million Turka, he said, have need of Thrace for homes. Appeals to America. "I am making a desperate appeal to American public opinion in the last hour." the Frenchman said. "The mod eration of Kemal's victorious army has been remarkable. Never has a vic torious army which found its way ruined by a defeated army, refrained in such spirit from further operations on the word of one man. 'I kept the Turks from continuing war. They aemanaea me esiaousnment of allied control and Turkish administration in Thrace and withdrawal of the control after a month. The allies refused on the grounds they would prejudice the peace conference. Charges that Turks have massacrea are lies. On th other hand a million Turks are homeless because mc Greeks destroyed their homies. De vastated Asia Minor after the Greek retreat looks as bad as France after Hindenburg and Ludendorff got out "If war breaks out, It will be Duiit on a huge lie. If it does, I will put the true facts before the world." America Urged to Protect Christian Populations fBy Associated Press) ATHENS. Oct. 7. The Thracean representatives in the Greek Chamber of Deputies have cabled President Harding and the American congress asking them to use their good offices in an effort to secure effective guar antees for the protection of the Green, Armenian. an 4 other Christian popula tions in eastern Thrace m tne event the Greeks evacuate the province.

690 Gallons of Gas Are Used in Record Flight of 35 Hours SAN DIEGO, Calf., Oct 7 While Lieutenants John A. MacReady and Oakley Kelly, early today were making up sleep lost while flying over this city more than 35 hours to smash all records for sustained flight, preparations were being made at Rockwell field, where they landed with the great service" transport T2, to obtain some more measurements connected with the feat.

Arms Parley Pacts

to be Carried Oat When France Acts By MARK 81XUT.W WASHINGTON, Oct 7. Because the writer has found the subject to he one of frequent discussion through out the ' country, and occasionally of serious misapprehension,' it "will be useful to state the precise present status of the naval limitation treaty, the four-power treaty, and the various other treaties and agreements arising out of the Washington conference. The. time is additionally appropriate because It will shortly be exactly a year since the opening of that momentous occasion 'at Washington, and it is interesting to examine the fruits of the event as they stand. The most serious and frequent of the misapprehensions heard in casual conversation about this subject is a widespread surmise that the scrapping of naval vessels, which was contem plated by the Washington conference, has been held up by recent events at or near Constantinople!, and by the fear of war arising out of these events Scrapping Is Delayed. It is true that the scrapping of ships has been held up, but not for this reason. The events in the near east have no relation whatever to the pres ent admittedly halting status to the treaties arising out of the Washington conference. The only relation possible to as sume as existing between the two lies only in the suspicion that m one fle gree or another France, and the strained attitude which France has toward Great Britain, is the cause of both. To draw an accurate line in this field between what are facts and what are mere suspicions is beyond the scope of the present article, which aims merely to state chronologically just what happened to the various treaties arising out of the Washing ton conference. In doing this, it is desirable, first of all, to ask the read er to bear in mind clearly the differ ences betweenvthe signing of treaties the ratification of treaties, and the final ceremony of the exchange of ratifications. ' All Treaties Signed All of the treaties were signed at the time of the conference by the official representatives of all the nations that took part The signing was the closing act on the last day of the conference. After the signing, the first nation to take up the matter of ratification was America. Immediately after the close of the conference President Harding sent the various treaties to the senate. The senate debated them for some weeks and at the end of the debate ratified them with some relatively unimportant reservations. The second nation to ratify the treaties was Japan. At the opening of the conference, Japan was looked upon as the one nation that had the most to lose and therefore the one least likely to enter heartily into the spirit (Please Turn to Page Eleven) SHIP LIQUOR SALES FORBIDDEN; FOREICH VESSELS AFFECTED By LAWRENCE MARTIN WASHINGTON, Oct 7. The United States government today set out to make the Ocean dry dry as the Sa hara, so far as all ships flying the American flag are concerned and' equally dry for three miles off shore! for foreign ships. J While Chairman Lasker of the shipping board expressed gloomy forebodings about the wrecking of the American Merchant Marine as a result of the order Issued to him yesterday by President Harding to stop selling intoxicants aboard shipping board vessels, leaders in the dry movement jubilated over the ruling. Follows Ruling Mr. Harding's order was made late in the day following approvel by a council of cabinet members and the president of a ruling drawn up by Attorney General Daugherty, which held: That under the 18th amendment and the Volstead law it was illegal for anv American vessel to carry liquor anywhere for any purpose. That foreign ships entering Ameri can waters within three miles of shore, also come under America's prohibi tory laws and therefore must not carry liquor even as ships stores. ; Orders Broadcasted , Immediately orders were broadcasted to all shipping board vessels to stop selling liquor and to dump the stuff overboard or get rid of it somehow. ! Those ships now on the high seas must be dry when they get to port or as soon thereafter as it is possible to get riii' of their stocks of intoxicants. Similar orders will be issued to private shipping interests by Secretary ot Treasury Mellon. International complications threatened as one immediate result of the ruling. Foreign governments were expected by government officials to protest vigorously against the drastic order against carrying liquor within the "insulated zone."

CONCILIATORY

TOME PREVAILS AT CONFERENCE iviuaania conrerence is Re sumed with Feeling of Optimism -Attitude of Turkish Delegate Softens. TROOPS CONCENTRATED BULLETIN (By Associated Press) CONSTANTINOPLE, Oct T. The Turkish concentration at Ismid has been increased auriner the nast 24 hours. At Chanak the situation is sta tionary and the Turkish troops have made several slight withdrawals for the purpose of avoiding contact with the British. LONDON. Oct 7. Ten thousand Greek troops have been concentrated in the Tchatalja district eastern Thrace, which is under control of French cavalry, says a Central News dispatch from Constantinople. Greek officers are reported to have distributed arms to some of the population of Thrace, telling them to repulse the Turks. Fires have broken out in the forest of Istranja, north of Constantinople, and are spreading in the direction of Bosphorus. The Turkish newspapers announce that Mustapaha Kemal Pasha has left Angora for Mudania, where he hopes to meet the British commander, Brigadier General Harington, says a Reuters dispatch. . - ...... MUDANIA, Oct. 7. The sessions of the conference here were resumed at 8 o'clock this morning. Owing to tho lateness of the arrival of the British instructions from home, no formal seseion was held last evening but the allied generals conferred late into the night. The sessions this morning opened with a feeling of optimism. At the start Ismet Pasha, the Turkish Nationalist representative, sounded a conciliatory note, by making the astonishing statement that at the time the conference broke up on Thursday he had not received a copy of the Angora government's reply to the allied peacd proposal. This reply reached Constantinople from Angorra at 3 o'clock Thursday afternoon. " - Attitude Softens Apparently Ismet on receiving tha Angora reply became convinced that his position had been considerably at variance with the Angora position and that he had demanded more th?.n the Angora authorities were asking At any event at the opening of today's deliberation his attitude had softenei markedly and the whole situation seemed to have become more hopeful. The allied general met the Turkish delegates informally last evening, but as the hour was la,te, it was mutually decided to postpone the formal discussion until this morning. The conference was entirely harmonious it was stated. Ismet Pasha said he had jut learned the allies had sent three commissions into Thrace, that this action was greatly appreciated by the Nationalists, who saw in it a sincere effort on the part of the allies to protect the property and persons of the Turkish population. LONDON. Oct. 7. Advices reach'"Sw in regara to tne Mudania I t i . - uuuieiBuue are luragre ana COniUCting. It is known that the Turks have demanded from the allies a categorical statement of consent to the Turkish, occupation of Thrace. Originally this' answer was demanded by 2:30 o'clock yesterday, then the Kemalists extended the limit to 6:30 and finally to 8 o'clock. The allied generals meanwhile were on their way back to the conference scene from Constantinople, where they had gone to consult their high, commissioners and to await further instructions from their governments. Not Ultimatum. The Times Constantinpole correspondent says the Turkish communication was not in the nature of an ultimatum. Ke declares Ismet Pasha told Brigadier General Harington. the British commander that the Kemalists would not suspend military actions "against the Greeks" later than 2:30 o'clock on Friday, "when he hoped to receive an answer from the allies accepting his conditions." This time limit. a3 stated, was subsequently extended. It is thought here resumption of tho conference may await the . result of Foreign Secretary Curson's conversations in Paris with the French premier.
