WILL REFER TREATY
TO HAGUE TRIBUNAL
Germany Willing to- Let Experts
Agree as To Damages Due on
William Il. Frye.

WASHINGTON Sept 23.-Ger-
many today agreed that the interpre-
tation of the PruSsian treaty of 1928
shall be referred to The Hague tribu-
nal Interpretation. In a new note
dealing with the case of the Ameri-
can Bark William p. Frye, sunk by
the German commerce destroyer
Prinz Eitel Frederick, Germany says
that there will be no need of naming
any umpire.
The question of agreeing on the
amount of damages is to be left to
experts, one to be appointed by each
nation. Germany selects as her eX-
pert, DR.. Kepny of the North German
LLOYD Steamship Co. In the new note
made public today, Germany stated
that she does not want any violation
of the treaty but is willing that it's
provision should be interpreted by
The Hague.
In the meantime however, Ger
many says that it cannot agree that
il must stop proceedings against
American ships during the time of
the proceedings before the tribunal
Germany further says that she will
not destroy any merchantmen carry
ing conditional contraband in the
future, but will destroy any vessel
falling into German hands which car
ry absolute contraband as named in
the declaration of London.

of Bulgaria.
LONDON. Sept. 23.-Berlin dis
patches affirm that Germany is con-
fident Bulgaria will strike Servia when
the Austro- German troops began their
invasion of that country. reports come
today from correspondents in Rome
that new proposals have been made TO
the Sofia government by the entente
powers They add that King Ferdin-
and has called his ministers into con-
ference to discuss the latest proffers
of the allies.
The Balkan problem has never been
greater than at the present time.
While the allies are anxious to keep
Bulgaria neutral if they canOnt enlist
its aid against the Teutonic alliance.
they are confronted with the danger
of creating a real power out of King
Ferdinand's realm which will hence
forth demand a place in European
councils. Already increased by the
concessions OF territory from Rou-
mania and Turkey the Bulgarian king
dom would become predominant in
the near east if it is given by Greece
and Servia all the land which was
taken from il after the Balkan war.
Hitherto the powers have found it
possible to stihe ambitions in the
Balkans by encouraging racial and ma
tional antipathy. if they permitted
Bulgaria to rise to power they would
be able TO regain control again only
with the greatest difficulty.
VIII AntagOnize Greece.
If they yield to the Sofia demands
for Bulgarian neutrality they will
necessarily antagonize Greece and Ser

wing of the entente, but Greece is
not The return of Premier Venizelos
TO power has not accomplished what
the allies expected and it is appar-
ent that German influence is still
strong at the Athens court.
Greece is bound by treaty TO assist
Servia if Bulgaria aSsails the Serbs
but the present war has taught diplo-
mats that treaties are not always OBJ
served. They admit that reports of
the mobilization Of the Greek army do
not necessarily mean that Grece will
strike Bulgaria this measure possibly
being taken to preserve armed neu-
trality." a phrase of which the Bull
garian diplomats are making extern
sive use.

 SUpT. J. P. WOMACK

An expression of appreciation giv- ing high praise to Supt. J. P. Wom- ack of the Conway public schools was embodied in a resolution unanimous ly adopted by the school board at a meeting last night Secretary W. B. Hubbell of the board said today that Prof. Womack's work has been so eff fcient and so satisfactory that there when the time arrives to elect next will be no question as to his retention years faculty. The resolutions adopted last night are as follows:
 Having had two years faithful service of our present superintendent, Prof. J. P. Womack, it is a pleasure to express our appreciation of him and his work.

ICE.

In 1856 ice sold for cents a pound. A few years after this all the ice we got come down the Mississippi river, and when the sun got hot it sold for l0 cents per pound Later the price got to dollar per 100. Now it is 40 cents per 100 The price of ma terial, labor and taxes are more than twice what they were then, and yet some misinformed people are not sat lsled. For they have an idea, as man told me over a year ago when he was going into the business here, that he could build a plant for S6,000 and make ice for 65 cents per ton. So how would you expect a man that never has given the matter one thought, other than the cost of water and that it is just frozen to make ice? Ice and cold storage are one and the same thing Without ice we could not have cold storage. Without ice then some eatables would not be ob- tainable, and others would be exces- sively high.
 Since the fair closed we have run at an actual loss every day to keep nice, fresh, good ice for our custom CTS. You are then bound to admit that you should appreciate this. We could have filled our house and shut down, not caring or appreciating your sum- mer patronage, and sold you mellowed ice. It would have been money to us and you could not have helped your selves. But we took the other view of the situation-tha you would ap- preciate fair treatment. Don't sigh when you say, "I'll have to be taking ice soon.' Be glad that the season lis approaching when the farm, the garden, the orchard and the great American hen and COW and McCul- loch's ice plant will be working full time to reduce the cost of living. Yes, rejoice that McCulloch's ice men and this growing season are coming hand in hand to make life more pleas ant and less expensive, and help you

 Prof. Womack is not only efficient in his school work, but is valuable asset to the community in which he lives and works, giving his whole time and energy to its general ad- vancement.

RAILROADS CANT
PAY REBATE CLAIMS
Railroad Man Asserts En-
forced Payment Will Pre-
cipitate Receiverships.
(By A w. Parke) }


Little Rock, Jan. 5-Failing in ev-
erv other way to get some relief, it is
highly probable that the railroads OF
which convenes next week, to pass
bills increasing the passenger and
freight rates in Arkansas, in order
that the railroads may at least be-
come self sustaining. No intimation
is given as to the increase in freight
rate desired, but it is probable that it
will exceed the old Tariff No. 3, MAX
ing it practically what the railroads
were permitted to charge under the
Court tariff, which was an increase of
about 33 1-3 per cent. AS for passen-
ger rates, they will probably DE rails
ed from 2 to- PA cents per mile if the
bill presented is adopted.
One of the most prominent railroad
connected with a railroad now IN
litigation with the state, is authority
for the statement that If the railroads
are forced to pay the rebates claimed
against them, that several will go i'm
mediately into the hands of receiv-
or The roads referred to are the
big systems of the state. This Off
cial declares thar an increase in the
rate is the only way these railroads
may earn enough money to pay the
rebates which are claimed, and which
the courts have yet to- finally pass up
on.
At the last session Of the legisla-
ture a bill placing the passenger rates
at az cents per mile could have been
adopted with ease, but the rate litiga-
ton was then in the federal court
and neither side cared to accept a
compromise, for the state had hopes OF
putting the rate back to 2 cents, and
the railroads were confident they
could maintain tae 3 cent rate. Many
members Of the legislature have ex-
pressed themselves as still being will
ing to pass a 2h cent rate, and in all
probability the railroads will GRASP
| the opportunity this time.
If those who are now threatening
dire things for certain state deparv.
ments carry out their pet schemes in
the legislative session, the time of thu
general assembly will be largely tax.

tempts to abolish other departments
Members of the legislature have init.
mated that two departments of the
state, at least are booked for thor.
ough Investigations, while three 9TH
ers will either undergo changes or be
abolished. The nature Of tbs
charges against state officials have
not been divulged. and many consider
