New Party is Organized

FORT WORTH, Tex, Aug. 10
Two factions of Texas Democrats, dis
satisfied with the present party Or
ganization, met here today and deter
mined upon separate lines Of attack to
accomplish a return to 'the principles
of Jefferson and Jackson" in state and
Federal governmental affairs.
One faction, headed by former Gov
ernor James e. Ferguson, left the
present Democratic organization and
formed the American party" which
1t Is purposed to make national in
scope before the next general cleo
! tons.
| The other faction, led by former
Senator Joseph w. Bailey, laid down
a declaration Of principles to be fol-
lowed in carrying the fight for party
reconstruction to the regular Demo
cratic state conventions.
The platform OF the American party
expresses opposition to the league of
nations as at present constituted, op-
poses national equal suffrage and pro-
hibition, demands prison terms for
trust formers and urges return Of the
railroads to their owners.

200 MEN PLACED
IN JOBS BY ny"

Over two hundred returned service
men have been placed by w. S. Rayle,
Y. NJ. C. A. ex-service mems secretary
whose work in Richmond will Gloss
on August 30.
Rayle has done excellent work in
Richmond, it is thought, and many
persons are wondering how the work.
for which there Is still daily demand,
can be successfully carried on without
the administration Of regular secre-
tary.
A great many soldiers are yet to
return and numbers of them do not
have jobs waiting for them, while
some already back do not have jobs.
These men will need the assistance of
an employment bureau after the first
of September, as well as before it IS
pointed out. Where the help is to
, come from. aside from side-work as
sistance which can be rendered by
other members of Y. NJ. c. A. staff. is
a question.
At present there are more jobs open
for service men than there are men
to fill them, and the employers are
| interested in a number of cases of
retaining an employment secretary in
the city.

Friends at Waynesuille
Denounce Army Training;
"To Pursuance America

A resolution drawn up by Indiana
Yearly Meeting of Hicksite Friends
at their meeting in Waynesville, Aug
ust II to IA. attended by several Rich
mond Friends, characterizing unlver-
sal military training as untimely and
unwarranted, was unanimously passed
by the delegates.
1--WE are Just emerging from the
greatest war in history, and we have
been led to believe that this war was
the war to end wars, and that never
again should militarism be a menace
to the worlds peace" says the resolu-
ton.
I'VE call attention to the inconsist.
ency contained in the appeals to all
citizens to support the war and the
present disposition OF congress to
Prussianize America through a sys-
tenn of universal military education or
training.
I'VE urge that all Friends raise
their voices in protest, with the firm
belief that the hysteria growing out
OF war will soon run its course and
the Christian ideals and democratic
principles will ultimately obtain"

THRACE PROBLEM
IS DEADLOCK IN
PEACE CONGRESS
United States Stands Alone in
Support Of Bulgaria S
Claims.
(By Associated Press)

PARIS, Aug IS Frank L. Polk,
head Of the American peace delegation
had a long conference today with
Premier Venizelos on the Thracian
question. They discussed various
plans to adjust the situation, but the
conference ended with the question
apparently no nearer a settlement.
The effort to provide Bulgaria with
an outlet to the Aegean sea by means
Of internationalized railroad to Dede.
agatch does not seem to be meeting
with success. American delegates be-
neve it is impossible to International
ize the railroad without granting sur
rounding territory to Bulgaria.
The supreme council will not meet
today or Saturday. Mr.. Polk will &C.
company Foreign Minister Tittoni OF
Italy on a visit to Lens, Arras and
other points in the devastated area OF
France. They will return to Paris
Monday.
Uncertainty as to what country will
receive the mandate OF Constantinople
and surrounding territory complicates
the situation almost hopelessly, as in
terested powers are all striving to pro-
tect their own interests, regardless
Of who gets Constantinople.
Dozen Plans Proposed.
Italy and Greece apparently have
reached an understanding so that the
United States stands virtually alone
in supporting Bulgaria's claim for ar
outlet to the Aegean sea so that an
other Balkan war can be avoided.
A dozen different plans for the di
viding and disposition Of Thrace have
been considered the last week but the
one most likely to be accepted as a
compromise, although opposed By
Greece, contemplates an International
tied zone extending from the Bulgar
ian border to Dedeagatch, on the Aeg
can sea. Western Thrace would go tc
Greece and she would also be given
a strip eastward from Dedeagatch ex
tending from the Aegean to the Black
sea, including the port of Midia. The
territory Immediately about Constan
tinople would go to the country re-
ceiving the mandate there. This in
ternationalized zone would be under
the administration OF the league OF
nations.
This plan violates the rights of ma
iorities and separates districts to be
given to Greece. But it is APPARENT,
impossible to reach an agreement or
any plan which would make this reg
ion less of crazy quilt. The plan
gives Adrianople to Greece, which is
regarded as unsatisfactory as that city
is considered sacred by the Mohamme
dams. There is a great difference O.
opinion regarding the exact size O.
the proposed nationaliZed zone, ant
now suggestions are offered at ever!

SAFETY FIRST RULES
LESSEN fire DEATHS

Safety first precautions are re-
sponsible for the decrease in the num-
Der of deaths for the first six months
Of this year over the same period last
year, said Ed Miller, chief of the city
fire department. State Fire Marshall,
H. H. Friedley reports that only 80
persons lost their lives from fire the
first six months of this year and in
the same period last year there were
CT fire deaths.
Miller warns persons against the
use of gasoline and kerosene, especial
ly on kid gloves. These are chamois
skin, he says, and contain static cleo.
tricity which may ignite when in con.
tact with gasoline.
l State fire marshall points out that
there is needless loss Of death and
property each year because Of the
| careless handling Of kerosene, coal oil
and gasoline. He warns against spon
taneous combustion of hay stored in
barns at this time of year.
