THE WRONG PARTY

few days ago Paris papers, as
well as the correspondents of daily
papers published an item to the effect
that an automobile belonging to Mrs.
Thompson n. Tarr collided with the
milk delivery wagon of Mrs. Eliza
beth Dundon.
THE NEWS is informed by Mr.. M.
]. Sweeney, driver Of the Tarr ma
chine, that the item is incorrect in
one particular. He was passing the
place at the time and noted the ma
chine, which bore the license num-
Der 47742, and which it was after
ward ascertained belonged to Flem-
ing county parties. Mr.. Sweeney is
very careful and cautious driver
and regrets the unwelcome publicity.

mex VOLCANO
HAS ERUPTION
Crater Of P0pocatepetl, Near Mex
leo City, Throws Smoke and
Ashes ESQ Feet in Air.

Mexico City, Dec. 12.-(By the
Associated Press.) - Popocatepetl,
the great volcano southeast of this
city, burst into violent eruption
yesterday afternoon, a column of
smoke and ashes being thrown
$500 feet above the summit of the
mountain. President Obregon was
entertaining a party of friends at
Chapultepec Castle and had stroll
ed with them on the balcony when
he observed the eruption. He call
ed for strong field glasses, and
after closely observing the column
of smoke rising 40 miles away, di-
rected that two advisors be sent
to the mountain to ascertain the
seriousness Of the outbreak
The aviators reported on their
return that they had heard heavy
rumblings in the mountain and that
lava was flowing down the slopes
below the crater.
Warnings have been sent to the
residents of villages near the
mountain but reports indicate that
these small towns have been de-
serted for weeks.
Within the past month Popocate-
petl has been reported active, each
eruption showing greater violence
than the one preceding it, and a
serious outbreak is forecast.

LAWRENCE SEES
NEWLEACUE IN
4-POWER PACT

Continued from First Psge)
and political independence OF China
and placed the other powers on
record as willing TO observe the
principle OF equal commercial op-
portunity in the far east The prin
ciples written by John Hay have
been proposed again by Elihu Roos
as a member OF the American dele
CATION and proclaimed anew.
Secretary Hughes indeed read "a
the plenaFy session these prtn-
ciples before Mr.. Lodge announced
the text of the treaty so the con-
npetion might be apparent between
the four principles which contain
the rights that might be subject to
dispute in the far east, and pos
sible aggressive action by any
power. The first of the principles
read as followsE
Protects China.
f'To respect the sovereignty, tha#
independence and the TERRITORIAL
and administrative integrity 0E
China" The language t6gether
with the provisions of the treaty
especially article two, make IL iu1
cumbent upon the United States as
well as the other powers to see 20
it, that China is protected ass
agaipst external aggression.
Thus the treaty between the four
powers will embrace the agree
ments previously reached as TO the
principles that shall govern in the.
far east. Only this time a solemn
obligation is entered into requiring
the powers to- consult with eachs
other as to EFF client measures"
that shall be taken to meet any
aggressive action" by any power
II is interesting to note that thesei
efficient measures" can be takenA
Jointly or separately so that con-.
ceivably the United States, Great
Britain and France might be all
lied on one side as against Japan
if the latter took any -aggressive3
action" in the far east
New Idea
The new treaty represents a newt
idea in diplomacy Instead OF
ranging all the friendly powers on
one side in an entente as against
another group of powers which,
might potentially be construed as
having opposite interests, this pactt
gathers together the very powers
who are likely to have disputes
with each other and binds them to
keep the peace under penalty of OPP
position by the other members OF
the group. Something OF the same
kind is being talked OF to preserved
European peace as a solution. of thai
German problem, as for instance al
treaty between France, Germany
and Great Britain which would ia
the same way guarantee the one
against the aggression of the other
The formula arrived at in Wash@
ington therefore has a worldwide
significance and may be applied 10
other parts of the globe
