personal interest in. The boys
parents are not living and the rela-

a year or two ago. He was helpless
cripple, about six or seven years of
age. His leg was diseased. Dr.. Ro-
berts took him and enlisted the help
of the County Court, first in an ap-
preparation of $25, then an addition
of SIS. With this the boy was sent
to Memphis and three operations
wore performed at different times.
The boy was presented here Monday
to the County Court, able to walk
and full of life and spirit in his
little body. The court made a little
additional allowance and made
it possible for the boy to enter school
in Nashville, where he will be taken
care of and educated free of charge.
The surgeons and especially the ply
stefan at Troy were given a vote Of
thanks by the court. Robert Z. zee
Bay is the boys name.

Hungary Would Return
to Monarchy, Says Sviss

BERNE, Dec 11.-Hungary will re-
turn to a monarchy soon. according
to a statement made to the Associated
Press by a Swiss traveller, who has
just returned from Budapest.
Nearly 95 per cent of the people
would vote for return of the mon
archy, he says, but it is still uncer-
tain who will become king. The old
fashiond royalists favor former EN-
peror Charles of Austria-Hungary,
while others think his son, Franz JOS
eph Otto, with Archduke Joseph as
regent, should ascend the throne.
Others are for calling British noble
man, but there Is no predominating
current in this direction.
Efforts for the restoration OF econ
omic life are being put forth by the
Hungarians. the traveller says. and
every where industrial and CONNER
cial activity is awakening.

Ne,u Party Not Asked by
Liberals in Convention
(By Associated Press)

ST. LOUIS, Dec. 11.-There was no
recommendation for the organization
of a new political party in the report
of the committee on political proceed
ure submitted to the national confer
ence of liberals here today and many
delegates expressed the opinion this
indicated a new party would not be
formed at this time.
The report apparently was disap-
pointment to some delegates who
came here for the announced purpose
of insisting that new political or
ganization be established and made
heated speeches in favor of this ac-
ton. 1t was recommended that the
committee of 49," which is conduct
ing the conference form a permanent
organization, retain its present execu-
tive committee and hold a nationa!
convention not later than July 1, next.
The executive committee of this or
Ranization was urged to cooperate
with executives OF similar organiza-
tions so that greater political influence
would be had in working for their
common objectives- improved econ
omfc and industrial conditions.

ALL YOUR PRIVATE
STOCK IS LEGAL,
new COURT RULING
(By Associated Press)

INDIANAPOLIS. Ind. Dec. IL
The supreme court Of Indiana Prohi-
bition law does not prohibit q person
from keeping any amount Of liquor on
hand. The decision was given in re-
versing the verdict Of the st. Joseph
county court in the case Of Thomas
Ward. South Bend. who it was shown,
was not q druggist.
Ward. it is set forth. was tried on
two accounts. the first for selling
liquor, and the second for keeping
liquor within the state for sale. 1t is
further stated that the jury did not
report q verdict on the first count
which amounts to an acquittal, but
found the druggist guilty on the second
count.
Ward made a motion in the trial
court for an arrest of judgment on the
ground that the second count which
comes under section 35 Of the prohi-
bition law, did not state an offense
against the law of the state. The
trial court. however, overruled his
motion, and he appealed to the cupre-
me court, which upheld him in his con-
tention.
Under previous Interpretation of
the state wide prohibition, it has
been held unlawful to have more than
a specified quantity of liQuod in ones
possession.

Nations Must Combine
to Save Notwithstanding
(By Associated Press)

LONDON. Dec. 11.-Private enter
prise will never rectify the present
financial throughout the world, accord
ing to Baron Swathling, who has just
returned from the United States.
In an interview printed in the Daily
Mail today he says he believes an in
ternational agreement by governments
can alone remove the dead
lock. He favors the suspension Of in
ternational payments among the allies
and any neutrals who desire to enter
into the agreement for Reproductive"
imports Of machinery and raw mater
ials. The suspension, he says, might
be for three years and of course under
government guarantees.
Politicians in the United States
scarcely grasp anything outside their
own country" he says. "They take in
neither politically or commercially a
worldwide view worthy of their great
country. And the trades unions, too,
are parochial and think more Of max
ing a point in party politics than of
the real welfare of their own country
and the world"

said today they looked for important
developments on the case in very
short time. They declined, however,

Charles S. White, who with Mrs.
Edith l.. Jones, housekeeper for
Whites father, is seld in Jail without
bail in connection with the child's
death. Counsel for the prisoners an

of trouble had there been no attempt
to surround the tragedy with so much
secrecy.

Said to Head Propoeanda
Against United States
(By Associated Press)

WASHINGTON, Dec. 11.-Luis Ca
brera, secretary of the treasury in
the Carranza cabinet Is said to be
the moving spirit in the anti-Ameri-

States, according to the Universal, of
Dec. 4, copies of which reached Wash
ington today.
Cabrera's hostility toward the Unit
ed States, manifested during the A
B C conferences at Niagara Falls, New
London and Atlantic City, is credited
by many Mexicans and Americans
alike for the failure Of those confer
ences to accomplish any amicable re-
suits and little interest has been
shown in this country in the sug-
gestion from Mexico City that COM

and business men attempt now to
