"A WORLD CAPITAL
Greece Would Have CONSTANT.
nOple for the League.
Premier VenizelOS Outlines His
Plans for Greek Boundary.

Paris, Jan. 16.-If Greece can not
have Constantinople for its own seat
of government. it wants that ancient
city to be set aside as the permanent
capital of the league of nations.
This developed today during discus
sion of Premier Venizelos's presenta-
ton of Greece's political and territor-
ial aspirations.
Greek delegates pointed out that es-
Enlistment of Constantinople as cap
ital of the league of nations would au-
tomat:cally result in it's International
ization, together with the Dardanelles.
1t was further suggested that the i'm
mediate hinterland on both sides of
the strait should be placed under the
control of the league. Thus the free
dom of the DardanelIes and elimina-
ton of the Turk from Europe-two
important problems of the peace set
tlement-would be settled simulta-
neously.
Unity the Greek People.
Venizelos, who is the most remark
able statesman the near east ever pro-
duced, seeks not only complete unfit
cation of the Greek people. but per-
manent settlement of all Balkan and
near eastern problems in the men,
orandum he has submitted to the
peace congress His claim to Greece
own right to Constantinople is based
on both history and economic grounds.
The city was the Greek capital for
centuries. Its present population in
cludes 100000 Greeks and there are
thirty-seven Greek schools. with 3d.
900 Greek scholars.
The Greek premier in his memoran-
dunn takes up four regions which he
desires to incorporate into modern
Greece-north Epirus, Thrace. Con-
stantinople, and the Asia Minor lit
teral.
Divide North Epirus.
venizelos would divide North Epirus
between Greece and Albania. He
would have the Greece Bulgarian
boundary follow the Ardar and
Martha rivers, thus cutting off Bull
saria from the Aegean sea, giving
Greece great portion of ancient
Thrace. Armenia, he suggests, should
be made a separate state but the viii
layets of Abrusa. Adm, Sanjaks and
Ismid with the adjacent islands, should
be annexed by Greece.
The city of Brusa, however he
government together with its Mar
meran port.
For Reciprocal Immigration.
This settlement would still leave
moro than 100000 Greeks in Turkish
Armenia. but Venizelos today suggest
ed reciprocal immigration, these
Greeks moving into Alden and Brusa,
while the Turks within the Greek
provinces move into Turkish territory.
Venizelos reminds the peace dele
gates that the entente promised
greece important territorial conces-
sions in Asia Minor for her military
Intervention. which the allies later
turned down when Venizelos was in a
position to offer it. The premier's
! memorandum is said to be a great
moderation of the original concessions

PLAYED A FAST GAME
Ichabod's Basketball Quintet Defeats
Bethany, 80 to "a.

Coming from behind with a fine
burst of speed, the Washburn college
basketball quintet Wednesday night
defeated the fast Bethany five in the
first conference game of the season.
Score, 1884.
Bethany had the best of the game
in the first half, piling up Is tallies,
while the blue and white got IL. Early
in the second half, however, Washburn
tied the score, but Bethany forged
ahead again. The Washburn boys
then got down to real playing, and, in
Bethany team. shooting goals from all
players showed real aptitude in ham
ding the ball, but were slightly err
ratio in their goal shooting.
When the Washburn boys took their
squirt, the score was 81 to 15 against
them, but the sure basket shooters
made this deficit more than good in
the last few minutes of the game.
Last nights attendance was the
largest at a game since 1913.
Peterson, of Bethany, was injured in
the second half by fall, but stayed
in the game. He and Staplin were
Bethanys best scorers Sharp and
Schurle scored most of Washburn's
points.
The Bethany boys took many long
shots for goals. making some dandy
hits. but failed to have men under the
goal to cover up when they failed
of goal.
Washburn's next game is with Mid
land. January 81, at Topeka.

PULLED MANY OF EN-
Ed Ransom Finds Tramp Who Is
Really Hard Boiled"

They were two poor, old wandering
tramps" from the land of Nothing
To-Do who sat in the police station
this morning and underwent an inves-
tigation by Detective Ed Ransom.
John Welsh was from Missouri, he
said, so the officers showed him the
way out of town and gave him until
noon to be gone. Otto Patterson. how
ever, was only 81 years old and re-
garded by the officers as harmless.
He told Ransom that he was from
King City, Mo; that his father had
died five years ago and left him
$4,000. With this money. he said. he
bought a farm, but spent the balance
of his cash, mortgaged the farm for
S11OO and spent that. He said he was
going to Hoyt and go to work for his
uncle, and he was warned to lose no
time about it.
Welsh was a "hard boiled" one
While Ransom was vainly trying to
get Patterson to confess to commit
ting a number of offenses, he noticed
that Walsh was smiling.
How many have you pulled %" he
asked sharply.
The tramp's face instantly became
solemn.
Many of 'em, my boy. Many of
en-" he replied frankly.

Cocoanut Oil Makes
A Splendid Shampoo

If you want to keep your hair in
good condition, be careful what you
wash it with.
Most soaps and prepared shampoos
contain too much alkah. This dries
the scalp, makes the hair brittle, and
is very harmful Just plain mulsified
cocoanut oil (Which is pure and en-
tirely greaseless). is much better than
the most expensive soap or anything
else You can use for shampooing, as
this can't possibly injure the hair.
Simply moisten your hair with wa
ter and rub it in One or two tea
spoonfuls will make an abundance of
rich, creamy iathe<, and cleanses the
hair and scalp thoroly. The lather
rinses out easily and removes every
particle of dust. dirt, dandruf1 and ex-
cessive oil. The hair dries quickly
and evenly. and t leaves 1t fine and
silky, bright, fluffy and easy to man
age.
You can gets mu sified coo 1anut oil
at most any drug store 1t is very
cheap. and a few ounces is enough TO
last everyone in the family for months.
