MEATLEss DIET WILL
CONTINUE AFTER WAR

MANCHESTER, England, Nov. 23.-
The experience of the present war
should result in the general adoption
of the meatless diet" says the an
nual program" adopted by the Veg2-
tartan Society of Great Britain, which
has just closed it's annual convention.
In his presidential address, Prof
Ernest Bell spoke of the many hun
dred of millions of men and women
who are now obtaining a living out
of the slaughter of animals and fish,
and suggested that one of the social
results of a general adoption of vege-
tarianism would be that these peo-
pie would turn to more humane and
ediflying work" He added, AT a
time Pike this, when food is a most
serious problem, it is monstrous to
devote Ga pounds of dry gran to the
production of one pound of bee"
Bernard Shaw, in letter to the
convention, said that he had been a
vegetarian for forty years, and spoke
of the meat diet as a relic of can
nibalism.

SECTIONAL FOOTBALL
CONTEST IS DESIRED

NEW YORK, Nov 23.-Eastern foot
ball followers are hoping that the
present unusual war conditions may
result in game for the benefit of
the Red Cross fund which will realize
the ambition of many seasons for a
intersectional championship gridiron
battle. Three sections of the states
this year have college elevens which
stand out above their rivals at this
writing and a contest between am
two of the trio would arouse great
interest if played at a large city in
any one of the sections.
Notwithstanding the restrictions and
handicaps which have surrounded the
development of college football teams
this season, the south has produced
a remarkable eleven in the Georgia
School of Technology combination.
The east has two in the University
of Pittsburgh and the U. S. Naval
Academy teams while the middlewest
is ably represented by the University
of Michigan and one or more of the
conference college squads. For vari-
Gus reasons both Michigan and the
Navy teams appear to be eliminated
from post-season Red Cross contests
but football enthusiasts are hoping
that the efforts to bring about a match
between Georgia Tech and Pittsburgh
may meet with success, Such game
should rebound to the benefit of the
fund and the sport.

TANGO TEAS To Be
INVESTIGATED AGAIN

NEW YORK, Nov. 23.-With the in
dictment yesterday of of Jacob Asche,
who until a week ago was dancer
in Broadway cabaret, began what
Assistant District Attorney Smith as
serted will be a crusade to end tango
teas" that conceal vice.
Recently many clergymen and So
cial workers have complained that the
tango lizard" is more active today
than he was two years ago, when a
drive was made against him. Mr..
Smith says Investigation has con-
WINGED him the complaints were right.
The complaint against Asche is
Diana Fischer, sixteen years, who
formerly lived in West 127th Street
She says that Asche saw her at Il
school playground in East 103d Street
and after watching her dance said,
eff you will come over to Broadway
you can make plenty of money"
The specific charge in the indict
ment is assault. Mr. Smith says it is
also asserted that Asche introduced
the girl to patrons of the restaurant
and collected from her part of the
money they paid her.
An Indictment was returned against
David Israel of No. 312 West 48th Sa.,
who, it Is alleged, forced his twenty
year-old wife Margaret to go on the
street for him. She says they were
in 1915 after meeting in a
cabaret. She was arrested and sent
to the Magdalen Home, from which
she escaped.
She went to Texas and became q
moving picture actress. Her husband,
by threatening to expose her past,
forced her to return to New York.
she asserts. She was here only few
days when she went to the police and
told the story which the grand jury
acted on yesterday.

ASK NO EXEMPTIONS
FOR THE BALLPLAYERS

NEW YORK, Nov 23.-The National
league will not ask special exemption
for any of its ball players, and is not
in sympathy with any selfish plan
of discrimination in favor of it's bust
ness or players, declared John 4.
Tener, president of the league here
last night.
Il would not go an inch toward
Washington to ask President Wilson
Or the secretary of war for special
favors for baseball" said the execC,
tive of the National league in dis
cussing the proposal to exempt Is
baseball players On each club of the
two major leagues, as suggested by
President Johnson of the American
League. Il think it must unpatriotic, y
continued Mr. Tener, ito suggest that
baseball should even appear to shirk
a duty at this time.
II cannot state too strongly that
the National league is not in sympathy
with any selfish plan of discrimina-
ton in favor of its business or play
ers. The National League will con-
tinue to help the government in any
way possible

CONVENTION STILL
UNABLE To AGREE

GREENVILLE, Ca, Nov. 23-In a
hopeless deadlock as far as nominal
ing one of the FIVE candidates is con-
cerned. the Fourth Congressional dis
trict CONVENTION adjourned yesterday
afternoon, after SO ballots had been
taken. The S8th ballot was exactly
as it was on the first-Jones, 10 votes;
Persons, 8; Chappell, 6; Durham, 4
and Holderness. 4.
The convention adjourned to meet
Tuesday at Columbus, that city having
been selected Overwhelmingly by the
delegates.
The highest vote of the convention
was secured on the nth ballot yes
terday, when IA went to J. j. Durham,
of Marion county, but Is votes and a
fraction are necessary to nominate
That ballot meant nothing, however,
for on several later ballots Durham
failed to secure a single vote.
Indications are that there is abso :
lutely no chance to select candidate
for the nominee, and it is entirely
probable that a dark horse will loom
up before Tuesday and be nominated
in short order in Columbus. A rising
vote of thonks to the people of
Greenville for their hospitality was
rendered.

ash piles spread over clay excavation
