Palladium, Witb Sun - TURK REQUEST FOR NEUTRAL ZONEHELD UP No Nation Willing to Guarantee Peace LAUSANNE, Nor. 25. The request of the Turkish delegates to the near east conference for a neutral rone on Turkey's western boundary has been held up, apparently because no nation wants to guarantee peace In any Balkan zone. Ismet Pasha's statement that Turkey desired Pasha's statement that teet the neutrality of a belt thirty kilometers wide on each side of ths Tur-co-Bulgarian and Turko-Grecian frontier along the Marltza River, brought no definite decision by the powers. It was evidently agreed that the neutrality question could be disposed of later. at the time of the expected discussion on the Dardanelles question. . Dedeagetch and Karagatch are two names which are heard in the conference halls and hotel lobbies with the regularity with which Fiume was dis-

Karagatch is in dispute between Turkey and Bulgaria. It lies Just west of Adrianople and is the railway ter minal -of that city. The Turks con tend that they cannot defend Adrian ople unless they have Karagatch. On the other hand the Bulgars say that if Turkey controls the town it Is im possible for them to enjoy free rail way communications to the Aegean even if they are given a port to the southward. Silent Drama Played.

Few people were apparently are aware of the silent drama which daily Is being played in the ranks of the Turkish delegation to the Near East conference. A majority of the European delegates are convinced that Ismet Pasha, leader" of the Turkish delegation Is genuinely seeking a reasonable peace, because Ismet realizes that Turkey needs tranquility and friendly relations with Europe and above all capital -with which to develop Turkey, for Turkey is poor in money. . With Ismet are several men, some of whom "keep In obscurity, watching his every move. These silent observers represent either the Bolshevik element , it Turkey or are pronounced reactionVI' aries who hate any concessions to nonMohammedan Europe.

SMELSERS HOLD OPEN HOUSE TO CELEBRATE WEDDING ANNIVERSARY Open house for their friends was held all day Saturday by Mr. and Mrs. Winfield Smelser. living on the Liberty pike south of Richmond, in celebration of their golden wedding, which occurs Sunday. - On that day a dinner party will be held at which the following guests will be present: Mr. and Mrs. Mac Fouts, Mr. and Mrs. Harry Highley, Henry Highley, Mr. and Mrs. J. M. Bulla, Mr. and Mrs. William Fisher, Mr. ana Mrs. Ralph Druley, Francis Stanley, Miss Elizabeth Smelser, Miss Josephine Dru ley, and Thomas Smelser of Anderson. Miss Smelser and Mrs. Ralph, Druley are daughters of the couple. Reminiscences of earlier days by Mr. Smelser and his older friends entertained the company Saturday. While denying that he Is a pioneer, Mr. Smelser has seen important developments in the local farming industry, especially in the methods used. Particularly in the implements have important changes been made, he said. Had Crude Tools. "Our only tools for farming when I began," he said, "were a breaking rlow, a small one being used for cultivating corn, a straight tooth A-frame 1 harrow and a roller, made by sawing off a section of tree trunk and hitching chains around lugs driven in the center of each end. "I have seen the development of the binder from the mower, the hand rake reaper on which an extra man stood on a platform and raked off the grain, the self rake reaper, and finally the ?elf binder. The first binder ever een in this section was the Walter A. Wood, made at Connersville. It cost $300. "I remember the first com cultivators also, which the operator walked behind as he guided them. Before their invention, we used to go twice between each corn row with a small shovel breaking plow, throwing dirt over the weeds in each row." Early Trainirg Good. While modern school equipment and other facilities may be an improvement over earlier ones, Mr. Smelser is of es opinion that the first schools turned out graduates as well based in fundamentals as any from the modern schools "Especially in spelling," he said, "we were experts. We held spelling schools, which with 'ciphering' matches were a popular amusement and resulted in great skill. After we finished with the McGuffey speller, we went on and spelled through the dictionary. Most of us can still give a stiff tussle to present day spellers from the high schools." Farming practices have changed as well as implements, said the fanner. No rotation was practiced in the old days, but from the time he started farming, rotations began to be used more and more, and a three year roFleaea Turn to Page Eighteen)

PLACE OF CMS' DEATH NOT KNOWN; FIRING SQUAD USED (By Associated Press) LONDON, Nov. 25. The place and manner of the executiyi of Erskine Childers had not been officially announced this morning. Some reports say that it occurred at Beggars Bush barracks, others at Portobello barracks. The Dublin Express states positively that Childers was ehot by a firjng squad ia Kilmalnham JaiL The newspaper quotes a statement by the republican publicity to the effect that after Childers had been told the execu-, tion was to take place, he requested to see a Protestant clergyman whom he had known as a boy. The minister was with him, the statement said, when he walked to his execution. He spoke no word to his executioners. No Editorial Comment . The. execution of Erskine Childers draws no editorial condemnation in the London morning newspapers today. Several papers make no comment and in their biographical matter and introductory notes indicate neither surprise no censure. Everywhere there ia recognition of Childers ability and courage, and the obituarie3 and editorials alike deplore that hi3 life had such an ending. Aside from the Times, comment is practically confined to the Liberal papers, which have been the strongest champions of Irish autonomy and the free state. The Chronicle calls Childers the enemy of Ireland and tho author of barbarous and cruel methods employed against his adopted country. "He , merited, his fate, meted not merely to' a murderer, but to a murderer on a large scale," the newspa per says. ' Speculating as to what caused his "abrupt," mysterious change toward Great Britain," the paper asks: "Was it marriage with a woman wrho herself was the prey of thj fanatical loathing of this country?" . - RECEIVER IS SOUGHT FOR 5,000,000 TIRE AND RURBER COMPANY .Application asking that a, receiver be appointed for the Burdick Tire and Rubber company, a five million dollar corporation, was filed in the Wayne county circuit court late Friday. The complaint alkges the concern is insolv ent. Calvin A. Miller, Joseph Lawman and William Wilcoxen are plaintiffs named as active in filing the petition. The caee comes up for hearing Dec. 7. Considerable local interest attaches to the action as many people here are. stockholders in the concern, the plant for which is located, in Hamilton couity, at Noblesville. The plant is- valued at $200,000 and machinery equipment and personal property brings the valuation up . to $225,000, the . complaint states. Judgment Allowed. Action of the stockholders in applying for a receivership was precipitated by the fact that a judgment for $4,000 was recently allowed by the Hancock county court, and some of the property is to be sold to satisfy this judgment. -' . "Negligence and mismanagement' of the officers of the concern have resulted in failure to pay the 1921 taxes, and the treasurer of Hamilton county is, now threatening to sell the plant to' satisfy a tax claim of $19,526, the complaint states. The allegation is also made that the officers have arranged for a $250,000 bond isue ; that they are endeavoring to sell these bonds and If successful, they will have established a prior claim and indebtedness on the plant, with the result that the original stockholders may not receive any of their money.

Who Aids Near East born in Clarksburg W. Va., has done New Woman Judge Answers Challenge of Right to Serve (By United Press) CLEVELAND, Ohio. Nov. 25. Miss Florence E. Allen, supreme court judge elect, answered the challenge of her right to hold office in' the name of all successful women candidates in Ohio today. The protest against her election on the grounds that under the constitu tion, women do not have the right to hold public office, was filed with Secretary of State Sruith late yesterday, by -Edward Dempsey, former mayor of Cincinnati. - - - - "I consider Dempsey's move not so much againsjt me personally, as against every woman in Ohio." she said, "As such I shall contest it 'with every means at my command." . ' I hadn't expected anything like this," Judge Allen said. ' Voting' Power Factor. "I am of the opinion, the fact that women have the right to vote gives them the right to hold public office." Dempsey called upon the secretary of state to withhold Judge Allen's commission of office until she had proved her right to the office by court procedure. "In Ohio, the right to hold office is based upon qualifications that are entirely seperate from the qualifications necessary to constitute an elector," Dempsey's- protest says. Secretary of State Smith declared he will issue Judge Allen's commission unless restrained by a court order. JUDGE BOND SCORES FILMS TO TALK TO . STAGE STRUCK GIRLS .Thr,ee high school girls', aged 13, 14 and 15 years, respectively, were soundly lectured by Judge W. A. Bond, on the evils of attending moving picture shows to too great an extent, Saturday. The girls had been apprehended in the act of trying to reach California where they expected to become movie queens.. , . - Letters received from an agency in California were responsible for their start, they said. Two of the girls had recelvea letters which orfered them indncements to, come to -the Golden West. The trio stole one more bicycle In addition to the one already owned by the girls and started on their way. Going to Cincinnati At Boston, they bought tickets for Cincinnati. The ticket agent, suspecting the girls, called the Richmond police. The girls heard the call put in, and started on the return trip. Between Boston and Richmond they were found by Mrs. KatherineSudhoff, police matron, and Mrs. Elizabeth Candler, juvenile probation officer. "I have come to the conclusion that the moving picture show is almost a curse to modern youth," Judge Bond told the trio when they confessed that moving pictures had something to do with their start, "You girls must go back home and attend school regular ly. Pay attention to your studies and help as much as you can about the home." ... - . - - Asks Barns Investigate Klan Rites In Capitol (By Associated Press) WASHINGTON, Nov. 25 Representative Rainey, Democrat, Illinois, who Introduced yesterday a resolution for investigation of reports that the Ku Klux Klan has conducted an initiation ceremony under the dome of the capitol, announced today that he would ask William J.

NO VERDICT REACHED IN DILLON CASE AT LATE HOUR SATURDAY N6 verdict had been reached In the case of the state against J. D. Dillon, up to a late hour Saturday, according to reports from Winchester at that time. The case went to the Jury at 3 o'clock Friday, afternoon. The length, of time taken by the Jury to reach a decision Indicates that the verdict Is likely to be acquittal or a disagreement according to the state ment of persons familiar with the ac tion of Juries in such cases. .Eight tanners, two grocers and two profes sional men made up the Jury before wnicn Mr. Dillon was tried. Prosecutor Paul A. Beckett Satur day, said he had not given any con sideration to what would be the course pursued by the state in the event the jury disagreed.

Dillon, by the "brazen effrontery of his action in trying to aictare to tne city council that he should- have an automobile, when that body had ruled he should not, precipitated a civic battle that brought scan dal upon the name of the city of Rich mond" Attorney Will Kelley told members of the Randolph county jury, clos ing the case for the state Friday. Mr. Kelley referred to testimony given during the trial that the automobile driven by Mr. Dillon's successor had been stripped of all accessories of value and run down to the light plant and abandoned. This action had been taken ' after council refused to allow appointment of appraisers that it might be traded in on a new machine, Doubts Understanding.
