Chicago Man Talks to
Grand Island Audience

Grand Island, Neb., Nov. H.
Especial. )-Under the auspices of the
Kiwanis club, Harry Atwood of Chi
cago, delivered an interesting ad-
dress at the local Auditorium Friday
evening to an audience of 400 or 500
men and women. His appeal was
for a return to the constitution of
the United States as. i'll letter and
spirit, adopted by the trainers of
$50 years ago.
Mr.. Atwood contended that, be-
cause of the seeming, not real nee
cssity of political leaders to listen
to public opinion instead of honestly
relying upon their own individual
convictions, not a real statesman had
been produced by america within
the past Is years and there had been
a material and a decidedly threat
ening departure from the rcpresen-
tative form of government provided
for in the nations fundamental law.
A splendid musical program was
given previous to the address.

Head of Delegation Decisive
Factor in Deciding Stand
Of Empire at Arms
Conference.
Chi, .so Tribune Omaha Bee Leased wire.

ChisssoN Tribune Omaha Bee Leased Wire.
Washington, Nov. 2.-Baron Ka-
to, head OF the Japanese delegation
to the Washington conference, is
the decisive factor in .Japan's deci-
sions here, possessing the power to
accept or reject proposals in true
plenipotentiary fashion, it was de-
clared today by we'll informed
Japanese authority. ..ssa ss5 N
The japanese delegation commu-
nicates daily with the Toxic gov
ernment, but when the members
left Japan it was with the knowl-
edge that they, being at the heart
of affairs, would make final deter
limitations. A press dispatch from
Toxic stating that the cabinet had
decided to instruct the delegation to
reject the 5-5-3 naval ratio was de-
clared to be without foundation in
fact.
Baron Kato is recognized as the
strongest individual in the Japanese
government, having the largest pop
ular following and enjoying univer-
sal confidence. 1t was suggested to-
day that when he announces for
mally, probably next week, Japan's S
acceptance of the S-5-3 naval ratio,
he will do so with a reservation that
will have regard for Japan's defense,
which would leave, in the main, this
question to be worked out by the
other powers in collaboration with
Japan.

Alliance Men Plan
To Establish Plant
To Grind Cement

Alliance, Neb., Nov. 27.-(spe-
cial 1.-The establishment of large
cement factory in Alliance, drawing
its chief material from the immense
limestone deposits which are to be
found within few miles OF here, j.
attracting the interest of local busi-
ness men. ]. c. McCorkle, retired
fancller and real estate dealer, and
4. NJ. Hampton, mayor and presi-
dent of the First National bank, ara
among those who arc keenly inter-
ested in the project.
Mr.. McCorkle recently visited the
cement factory at Superior, Neb..
and says that The limestone used
there as the principal ingredient IN
the manufacture of cement is ap-
parently of the same kind and quail
ify as that found in this county.
Three miles west of this city there. is
a hill composed almost entirely of
limestone, and at Point of Rocks, II
miles west, there are several hiliy
formations of the same material, con-
tanning, it is estimated, tens of thou
sands of tons OF limestone. In the
Pine Ridge district, 90 miles to the
northwest, limestone is to be found
in almost unlimited quantities.
A test of the deposits in this
county will be made at once and ii
the material is found to be suitable
Tor use in the manufacture of cement.
immediate plans will be made for the
establishment of factory here. In
case of building factory, here. it is
Planned to use large part OF the
machinery in the defunct potash
plants at Antioch, which could be in
stalled at much less cost than new
machinery.
