Big NAVAL PROGRAM
SCORED BY SPEAKER
Representative Galloway, of Texas,
Addresses Women's Peace Party.
Denies u. S. Is Defenseless.

THE folly of laying out a five-yesr
naval program at this time" was ex-
emplifed with a mass of statistical data
yesterday by Representative Galloway,
Of Texas, before the monthly meeting Of
the Women's Peace Party at the New
Willard. Other speakers were Mrs.
Louis r. Post. wife of the Assistant Sec
rotary of Labor and Miss Janet Rich
ards. Mrs. w. T. Birch. president, pre-
sided.
In ridiculing the statements that for
eign warships could steam along the
coast and demolish all OF the coast forti-
locations. Representative Galloway cited
the bombardment of the forts on the
Dardanelles by the allies fleet.
Look at that magnificent battleship,
the Queen Elizabeth, which they hold
up as a model" he said. ''She steamed
to the Dardanelles and then steamed
away again without harming in the least
the fertilization guarded only by the old
out-of-date smooth-bore guns"
He also ridiculed the statements that
there are no soldiers. He said: Il
never look into the face of an America n
citizen without looking into the face OF
real soldier who will fight to death for
his country"
Mrs. Post urged the Importance OF or
ganizing and OF supporting the plans OF
the Women's Peace Party.

Harry Burr. for the past year and a

Company in the capacity Of salesman,

The State Of Maryland has made one
concession which will prove OF benefit
to local motorists. The toll on the Havre
de Gras bridge, by an act of the State
legislature, has been reduced from 81
for automobiles to 80 cents. 1t is stat
ed that this was the highest rate Of
toll charged anywhere in the East. 1t
seems as though at the time the charter
for the bridge was granted motor cars
were not even a dream and there was
nothing said about the amount of toll
that should be eXaCted for this type Of
vehicle I suppose we should all be thank
full that when the auto did come into
existence those in charge OF the bill only
made the tax levy one dollar instead Of
five Well, everyone Is thankful, for it
is one of the few concessions that have
been made to motor cars.
Oakland. Cal. is to be the site Of the
Western assembling plant for the Chal-
ners Motor Car company. Owing to the
high freight rates to this section Of the
country. as well as the distance from
Detroit, ii was decided to erect an as
sembIy plant on the Coast It is more
than likely that this step will be fol-
lowed by other motor car companies.
Not only will assembly plants be located
IN the West, but it is expected that they
will be found in the East also before
long. They will mean much to the deal
eT, especially the one who cannot a1ord
to carry a large supply of spare parts.

TEXANS LYNCH Y. .
 MAN WHO SLEW AGED PARENTS
Twenty five Men Take Will Mayheld from Jail Short
 ly Before Midnight.

Texarkana, Jan. 24.-Will J. May field was taken from the jail at New Boston, Texas, tonight by crowd of 25 heavily med men and lynched. Complete details of the lynching have not yet been received here.
 Mayfield, who was about 50 years 0: age, was accused of the murder of his aged parents and brother near New Boston, on December 2S. It is believed that after chopping them to death with an axe, he calmly washed and dressed and attended a meeting of a lodge.
 His seven-year-old son was the main witness against him at the trial last week, which ended without 2 verdict after the jury had deliberat- ed three days. Ten favored the death penalty and two life imprisonment.
 NMayfield's only defense was insan- ity.

Slayer of Honea Not Placed Under Guard by Faulkner
 Officials.

Conway, Jan. 24.-Lee Blount, Faulk- ner county convict who escaped with 23 others from the Cummins state farm last week, is al home at, May flower, south of here, and will sur render in the morning to officers of the prison at Little Rock.
 He appeared at Mayflower this morning, and went around to see his friends, and announced that he would return to prison without further trou- bic for the officials.
 Residents of the place believe he has been, here since Saturday night, although none will say positively that such has been the case.
 Blount gives as his reason for leav- ing the farm at Cummins that he wanted to see his folk, and that he does not intend to make trouble for anyone.
 Blount was convicted here last March for the murder of Deputy Sher- if Oscar Honea, and was sentenced to IS years in the penitentiary. AL though regarded as a dangerous man. local citizens have implicit faith In Blount's word, and believe that he will carry out his promise in the morning. No guard will be placed over him TOT the night.

S5O00 FOR CONTROL 0F
 LOCAL OH. co.
Pine Bluff Man Willing to Furnish Money to Com
 plete Rutherford We'll.

Although he is not disposed to ac- cept the offer, Secretary Reese Burks of tho Jefferson Oil company is sub hitting to the stockholders a proposi- ticn made by a local man to provide cash necessary to complete the well now being drilled On the Rutherford place, and which is now down 1700 feet. MT. Burhs says a similar offer has been receivsd from a connection of the Standard Oil company. Both propositions entail the relinquishing of control by the present stock holders. MT. Burks believes this would be mistake. but thinks that if the present stockholders relinquish control, it would be best to- give preferment to the local man.
 The proposition, submitted in writ ing tc Secretary Burks, in brief is: That the local man will put up 5000 or as much more as it necessary to complete the we'll, providing stock at the ratio of 2 for 1 is issued to him; that, excepting the secretary. all of- ficers of the company shall serve without pay. A secretary may be em- ployed at a salary not exceeding $35 a month to keep the records. Another condition is that new directors and officers shall be elected.
 The issuance of stock. of par value of $1O,000 for the $5,OOO cash to be put up by the local man would give him. control of the company, and he could name his own directors and officers.
 The offer is date January. .21, and must be accepted within ten days.
 Mr. Burks, who has worked ener- getically and determindly on the project, believes that reward is near. The we'll, he says, can be completed in 60 days, if the money iS forthcom- ing. Prospects are so good that he thinks it would be unwise for those who have financed the venture thus far to relinquish now the opportun- ity to reap the full profit of their venture.
 MT. Burks would not disclose the identity of the local man who has
 offered to put up the $5Oo0, nor the name of the Standard Oil connection which is also anxious to secure con trol.

JOHN HALLOCk HONE

Believed to have < originated through worn-out insulation or de- fsctiye electric wiring, fire at the home of John Hallock, s714 West Fifth avenue, caused damage estimated at about $500. about 2: 30 o'clock yeBter- day afternoon.
 The fire had evidently been smouldaring for some time in the attic, because g hole, of some siza had been burned, when the bla1e broke through the, roof. The early presence of Fire Company No. 3. stationed almost directly across the street, gave the firemen q good start. and aided in keeping the damage It a minimum. The house is owned by Leo M.
