WASHINGTON, Nov. S.-Gen. John
J., Pershing sees complete success"
in the impending Washington con-
ference on Limitation of armament.
The Chief of Staff and General of
the Armies Of the United States so
expressed himself today in an ex-
elusive interview on the eve of the
assembling OF the conference.
In his first interview on arms
limitation, General Pershing says the
conference will be zone of the most
important ever held"
He believes the prospects are ex-
cellent" for cutting down the chances
Of war.
oader Of the American Expedition
ary Forces in France during the most
terrible war of history, and this
country's greatest authority on
modern warfare, General Pershing in
giving his opinions on the conference
is making an important contribution
to a proper understanding Of this
epochal event.
STUDIED CONDITIONS
IN FRANCE, ENGLAND.
General Pershing's opinions are
valuable for another reason. He is
back in his office in the War De-
partment after a trip to France and
England, where he decorated the
graves Of the unknown French and
British Soldiers with the Congress
slonal Medal of Honor, and has just
returned from Kansas City, where he
attended the American Legion con-
vention. So he has had an opportunity
to judge the temper of the people of
Europe and America toward the con-
ference.

SCHOOL ELECTION
SLOWS Up VOTING.

The voting was slowed up somewhat
by the fact that the school board election
is being held also. Whereas voters
ordinarily require only a minute or two
to pull the straight party lever or do
what sratching they desire, many
citizens are taking five or six minutes
to hunt out their favorites for school
commissioners and figure out how to
manipulate the levers in order to vote for
them. Interest in the school board can
didates appeared to be much heavier on
the north than on the south side.
The one arrest was that of Pat Kin
ney, a former policeman, residing at 102
Koehne street, who was taken into GUS
tody by the police at 1O2 North Miley
avenue, a voting place in the Second
precinct of the Fifteenth ward. He used
prOfane language and caused q disturb
ance, the police said. He was slated for
diSorderly conduct.
At most places there were from twenty
five to thirty people in line at s O'CLOCK
when the polls opened. The Second pre-
cinct Of the First ward had ninety -four
votes cast at S:15 o'clock. There are 692
votes registered here. The Sixteenth pre-
cinct Of the Ninth ward. in Irvington,
with 1925 votes registered, reported $50
votes in at $50 o'clock A member Of the

election board in this precinct said that
the line waiting when the polls opened
was not as long as in former elections.
The Fifteenth precinct of the Ninth ward,
the other IrvinRton precinct, which has a
registration of 1922 showed an early vote
about equal to that of the Sixteenth
precinct, it was reported.
An enormous vote was being cast In
the Twenty Second precinct Of the
Fourth ward, 1t was said. One Of the
voting machines was down for an hour
early in the morning, but about 200 votes
had been cast at 1880 O'Clock neverthe-
less. Great interest was being displayed
in the Eighth precinct Of the Third ward
while in the Eighth precinct of the
Eighth ward the voting was desultory
compared with some other places. Up to
8 80 o'clock about 100 OF the I 072 votes
registered were in. A rush started about
then, it was reported. One Of the pre-
cincts where early voting was unusually
heavy was the Tenth Of the Tenth ward.
A member of the board here reported
that 1SS persons had voted by $50
o'clock. More than thirty people were
waiting when the polls opened, the off
cial said.

ELECTIONS IN
MANY STATES
HOLDINTEREST
Politicians Watch Results to
See Whether Republicans
Have Lost Grip.
WARM FIGHT IN N. Y. CITY

WASHINGTON. Nov. s-Politicians
today had their eyes on the "of- year
elections"
In virtually every State elections Of
some sort were being held. In most OF
them the interest was purely local, but
taking them as a whole, the political OBJ
servers of the big parties wanted t.
see what they showed about the political
trend.
They were interested to see whether
the Republican grip on the votes, evil
denced in last Noyember's landslide, had
relaxed In the intervening year.
The Virginia governorship election and
New York City's mayoralty fight were
attracting the lions share Of attention.
In Virginia the Republicans were
claiming q good chance to elect Henry
w. Anderson. Governor, over State Sena-
tor Z. Murray Trinkle. the Democratic
candidate.
All indications pointed TO an excep-
tionally heavy Republican vote In the
Old Dominion. particularly in the north
ern portion OF he State.
In the Fifth Congressional district.
Virginia, the congressional contest is
causing some interest because the Re-
publican candidate Is Tom Felts Of the
B1idW1u EeltS detective ldlubyt WHICH
has figured so prominently in recent coal
troubles in West Virginia. Felts is op-
posed by T L. Hooker. They are run
ming for the seat made vacant by the
death OF Rorer A. James.
New York's mayoralty contest, one Of
the bitterest il years in n city where
every election is bitter, lies between the
present mayor, John +. Hylan, a Demo
crat, and Henry II. Curren, coalition
or fusion candidate. Street car fares and
overcrowded school conditions have hg-
ured largely In the fight.
Ohio is voting on a proposal to pay q
soldier bonus as n State measure.
In Indiana. Samuel Lewis Shank, Re
publican, former mayor, is trying to
come back and is opposed by 3. NJ. Rails
ton Democrat.
In Terre Haute, Don Roberts who
served six years in Leavenworth in con-
nection with election frauds, also is try
ing to be elected mayor and in Muncie

FIRE LOSS AT
HOLT PLANT MAY
REACH $4,000
Storage Building at North
Street and Canal Scene
of Blaze.

Fire that started from a motor on the
fourth floor of the Holt Ice and Cold Stor-
age Company. North street and the canal,
today caused loss estimated between
$500 and $4,000.
Wilson Mcdonald, negro. 500 West Wal
nut street, night watchman, discovered
the fire as he was making his 6 o'clock
rounds. When the firemen reached the
scene the fire had eaten its way through
the roof and a second alarm was sent In.
Fire Chief J. c. Loucks took personal
charge. Great clouds of black smo Ike
mounted skyward as the water from
twelve lines of hose was poured onto the
blazing building.
The Holt Ice and Cold Storage plant
extends from North street to Walnut
street on the East bank of the canal, and
from the canal east to the Big Four
Railroad The section where the fire
occurred Is a four story brick building
located half way between Walnut and
North streets. North Of this part Of the
building is the Blue Valley Creamery
Company's three-story building, but a
heavy fire wall prevented the fire from
reaching the latter plant. On the south
side of the four story section Of the Holt
building is q double fire wall and this
checked the danes spread south, con-
hning the blaze to a section of the build
ing about one hundred feet square.
V. c. Shaeffer, superintendent Of the
Holt Company, said about twenty car
loads Of apples were stored on the fourth
floor of the building in the section where
the fire started. Fifty car loads of food
were stored on the other floors, but were
covered by the salvage corps.
Q Ill sln,,k ofN
specting the building, said the loss would
reach at least $25, 900 and possibly $4,000
He said the loss was covered by insur
ance.

Asked TO Practice
What They Preach

ROCK ISLAND. ILL.,, Nov. 8.-MayOr
Schriver, in a letter addressed to
Presiden. Harding, Secretary OF War
Weeks and other Washington lead
ers, challenged the Federal Govern
ment ''to practice what 1t preached
in its plea to communities to solve the
unemployment problem
The mayor charged that curtaiI-
ment of arsenal prOductiOn-the Rock
Island plant Is the largest ordnance
manufacturing center in the Nation
was seriously affecting the situation.

There was only one ward In the city

and south side wards were maintaining
the general average of about 30 per cent
behind the presidential total.
The Democrats, however, claimed this
afternoon that the voting is heavier In

claim that the negroes, the big majority
of whom are conceded to the Republicans,
are not voting heavily. 1t was said at Re

negro vote was entirely satisfactory.
With the exception OF the usual trouble

GEORGE
MAY BE FORCED
TO RESIGN POST
Premier Will Confer With Sir
James Craig OH Ulster
Settlement.
ELECTION MAY FOLLOW

LONDON, Nov. S-The possibility that
Premier Lloyd George and his cabinet
may resign Friday as n result of the Irish
peace crisis, was being discussed in the
inner circles Of Downing street today.
The Premier will confer tomorrow with
Sir James Craig and the other members
of the Unionist cabinet of Ulster and the
future course of the British cabinet in
the Irish peace negotiations will depend
upon this meeting.
II the Ulsterites reject the Premiers
proposals for a compromise and refuse to
have any dealings with the Sim Fein
then 1t is likely Premier Lloyd George
will seriously consider resigning and a
general election with Irish peace as the
chief issue Will follow.
WILL TRY EVERY
SOURCE OF PEACE.
In his recent speech in the House OF
Commons just before receiving a vote or
confidence, the Premier intimated he
might resign II the Union!sts succeeded
In wrecking the Irish peace conference
The Premiers colleagues declared, how
ever, that he would not resign unless
every othe resource failed, for it is the
one ambition OF the Premier's life to
leave the Irish peace as legacy to his
country when he retires from the gov
ernment.
The Ulsterites do not attempt TO con-
ceal their Lelief that Lloyd George may
"betray" them to the Sim Feiners. Their
opposition has stiffened within the past
few days and the breach between the
north Ireland Unlonists and the British
cabinet has widened despite the efforts
Of A. Bonar Law and Sir Edward Car
son to bridge It,
ULSTER UNIONISTS
ALSO MAY SPLIT.
At the same time there Is a possibility
that a split may occur among the Ulster
ties. The British premier is a powerful
pleader with great powers OF persuasion
and II he can win the support OF the
Ulster business men with economic argu-
ments, they may bring pressure upon
the "lrreconcilables."
The Orange lodges in Ulster are the
backbone of the opposition to compro-
mise. They threaten to bring about Sir
James Craig's political downfall If he
yields to southern Ireland.
Intimates Of Premier Lloyd George say
he has made 1t plain to his colleagues
In the government that he will not be re-
sponsible for a renewal of warfare In
Ireland. II the UniOnists remain firm
in their refusal to make concessions, the
Premier will issue a statement putting
full responsil ility upon the Union party.
general election would follow and every
effort would be made TO continue the
Irish armistice in effect until the result
of the election is known.
