In First Message Received from Tennessee and North Carolina Sec. Daniels Gets No Additional News of Turkish Attack
WILL K KEEP SHIPS
 IN GREEK WATERS
Dispatch from Capt aims. Merely Confirms Reports of Smyrna Incident, and Daniels Asks for a Full Report
ASSOCIATED PRESS prspArcH1

WASHINGTON. Nov 20.-Secretary Daniels received messages from Cap tain Decker of the cruiser Tennessee and Captain Oman of the North Car oIina acknowledging his instructions not to act in Turkish waters without Washington instructions. Neither supplied additional details incident to the Turks firing on the Tennessee's s launch at Smyrna a few days ago A report from Ambassador Morgenthau is expected on Saturday or Sunday. Because of Turkeys sensitiveness to the presence of foreign warships near her coast, Secretary Daniels. will probably keep the American cruisers at Chios, Greece, half a days sail from Asia Minor. They will not be withdrawn from the Mediterranean no matter who is responsible for the Tennessee affair.
 This is the first word from the Tennessee since Captain Decker laconic dispatch of Wednesday con firming the newspaper reports of the Smyrna incident. Secretary Daniels has asked for a full report. but ow- ing to the difficulty of communicating with that part of the world there is no saying when it will arrive

GREAT BRITAIN WILL NOT
 MODIFY WOOL EMBARGO
American Dealers Refused Chance to
 Get Australian Raw Material
[AssocIArEp pREss DIspArcHl

WASHINGTON, Nov. 20-Great Britain has declined to modify it's ab- solute embargo on the exportation of wool from Australia and other British dominions in favor of American manu- lecturers.
 It is hoped that after the needs of the British army are supplied, Ameri- cans will be permitted to buy supplies guaranteeing neither the wool nor the manufactured product will reach Austria or Germany, but the state de- partment was informed no exceptions would be made. The embargo was placed at the outbreak of the war on certain grades only but when the British army was increased to mil lion men, all grades were included It is still hoped that Great Britain will find she will not need all her wool. The Australian wool growers are also anxi- ous for American competition at the approaching wool auctions.
 Last year the United States import ed 60,O00, 900 worth of wool
 It was also reported unofficially the British privy council had decided to place an embargo on the exportation of rubber.

WOULD PUNISH
 PARENTS N0T

More Training for Fathers and Mothers and Less Corporal Punishment Urged by Prominent Edu- cators in Conference
IAssoclArEp pnEss n1spArcHl

DETROIT, Nov. 20.-The prosecu- tion of parents instead of truant chil- dren; the extension of mothers pen sions, relieving children of the neces- sity of working to support the home less corporal punishment, and more uniform marriage and divorce laws met the general approval of the dele gates of the National League of Con- pulsory Education.
 Recommendations were made dur ing the discussion of the subject of subnormal children which was led by William L. Bodine, superintendent oi compulsory education, of Chicago Parental schools have a tremendous force for good, according to Bodine.
 There is a noticeable increase of subnormal children" he said Par ents should be given proper training to overcome this problem, and if they will not benefit accordingly we should prosecute the parents more and th' children less. In the higher educa' ton of the children, let us get at the lower education of the parents
 Bodine also urged the league tt go on record favoring expansion o the powers of juvenile courts, so tha parents. instead of children, Wculo DO put on probation in cases of viola !, ton of the compulsory education laws
 This convention should announc it's opposition to corporal punishment
 the speaker continued. T believe Il moral application, not in materla application | With reference to marriage laws, b
 said: Until uniform marriage am
 divorce laws are adopted, chlldhoo will suffer. We cannot wonder a l mentally deficient children whe l drunkards and lunatics marry.
 The convention will conclude it's ses sions tomorrow afternoon. Nlnet delegates, prominent educational work CTS. are attending the meetings.

ALL IN READINESS
 FOR KICKOFF IN NEW
 YALE BOWL" TODAY
ASSOCIATED PRESS D1spATcHl

NEW HAVEN, Nov. 20.-All signs point to perfect weather conditions overhead and a slow field undeffoot for the Harvard Yale football game tomorrow The forecast is for a fair sky and a cold, snappy atmosphere, but coaches fear, however, that the change will come too late to benefit the gridiron. which tonight is soft and slippery as q result of the heavy rain Thursday.
 There is no drop in the enthusi- asm of prospective spectators, how ever, thousands of whom are arriving by railroad and motor car every hour.
 The gathering tonight is considered but the vanguard of the rush that will set in at daybreak tomorrow There is every indication that the gathering will be the largest and most representative that has ever witnessed an intercollegiate game in the United, States. Former President Roosevelt has seats reserved. Sir George Paish, the English financier, will also be present, together with d host of famous Yale and Harvard alumni government officials and rep resentatives of the social sets of principal cities of the east, south and west.
 Tickets for the game are just as scarce as though the game was to be played on the old gridiron, instead Of in the new bowl" with it's seating capacity of 70,O55 spectators. There lis a constant demand for coupons which cannot be supplied. Even of fers of large premiums over the face value of tickets failed to bring forth the pasteboards, since spectators ap- pear to have failed entirely in their efforts to get tickets.
 The Yale players had an hours signal drill in the Yale field followed by g short runtipe ana dropkicking session in the bowl" today, after which the old uniforms and harness were burned in accordance with the time honored custom.
 The Harvard squad, some seventy strong, is quartered in New London, land will not arrive here until an hour or two before the game. The Crimson schedule for the day consist ed of an hours signal drill on the field, followed by a blackboard talk on the new plays and defensive tactics to be employed against Yale.
 Slowing up the turf in the new Yale "bowl' it is thought, will have a tendency to check open play, which has been a feature of the local eleven all season and as result the Blue receded a point or two in wagering odds. Early in the week the Ellis were backing their team at almost even figures. Harvards best offer was ten to nine on Cambridge com binations. Tonights quotations rang ed from five to four to ten to seven. Yale money was not abundant.

NJ CHANGE IF POLICIES SAYS
 GOV. JOHNSON
Perfection and Development of Present Plans Will Be Carried Out Without Rad ical Departures = Rural Credits Endorsed
ASSOCIATED PRESS D1sPArcHl

LOS ANGELES, Nov. 20.-Gov. Johnson was the guest of honor at the Southern California ratification banquet here tonight. Nine hundred people, many of them from other parts of the state, sat at the banquet board.
 The affair afforded Johnson's fol- lowers an opportunity to visualize the nonpartisanship of his supporters and served the governor to publicly an- nounce the trend of his administra- tion policies during the coming term.
 In the party which arrived here this morning from Sacramento, were the Governor and Mrs. Johnson. Surveyor General W. $. Kingsbury, State Rail- road Commissioner E. o. Edgerton, C. C. Young Speaker of the Assem- bly,, and Alexander McCabe, the gov ernors secretary.
 The proposed system of rural ere dits and his hope of non partisan state elections were the chief themes of Governor Johnson He also em- phasiZed that his efforts would be directed to the perfection and de- velopment of the present administra ton policies rather than to the in |troduction of further reforms
 There will be no changes of pol icy" the governor said. Nothing ra- dical in the way of new legislation i. in tnT A1of hA ott Tod It is my hope to carry out policy O non -partisanship in state elections an( also to put into effect a system O rural credits which will enable tn, man of small means to obtain fund for home construction on long tim and at a moderate rate of interest Aside from this, little in the way o new constructive legislation is lillel, Ito be proposed by me"

Joint Meeting Is T0Name Expert On
 Cost COuuliSSiOu

Although it was supposed to be a joint meeting of the board of gov ernors and council of the Water ings session with Judge King was much interrupted and confused by the matter which President Orme per mitted outsiders to get into the record. So it was well after noon before the vote was finally taken on the one important matter for which the meet ing was called. The meeting decided to retain the right the water users had given it, to manage the afaflrs of the project, and to name the eX- pert who is to be the associations member of the project cost computing board.
 The action followed an exposition of the secretary's plan by Judge King, and a long series of more or less wandering arguments started by the objectors, who offered their objections over the head of the presiding officer.
 Finally. Charles Peterson moved that the matter of naming the engineer be kept in the hands of the joint meeting Rudolph Kuchler, who had been instructed at meeting at Glen dale, opposed the naming of an en- gineer He moved a substitute mo- ton, that the matter be referred to the water users. It was explained that the election would mean a re vision of both the bylaws and the articles of incorporation. and that it would mean an expenditure of about S700 w. J. Murphy moved all amend ment that the board submit but one name to the people for their approval, but this amendment was not second ed. The result of the vote on the substitute motion was:
 In the board-Aye, 1; nay, s.
 In the council-Aye, 4; nay, IT,
 On the original motion, the vote was just reversed. and it passed, 25 to ,.
 The meeting was adjourned until the first Monday in December
