runs, and early this morning thew

Practically every night for weeks
the police have rushed oat to answer
the agonized call of some woman. who
had seen an eerie spirit. Invariably
the ghosts had disappeared before the
police arrived.
At o'clock this morning came the
usual frenzied appeal from a woman
who was being haunted" Two wagon
loads of police were rushed to the
scene. All the colored people of the
fiat building We're covering in q group

ing. The police surrounded the place
and made a thorough investigation, but
found nothing, as usual Then ali the

conduct will break up the epidemic Of
ghosts, or at least prevent any more
calls for the police to pursue
imaginary spirits.

Britain Forced 10 Drop
100 Million Farm Subsidy

LONDON, July a (By The Associated
Press) The serious state of the coun-
try's finances was emphasized in the
House of Commons tonight when Sir
Arthur Griffith Boscawen, president of
the Board Of Agriculture, and Sir
Robert Stevenson Horne, Chancellor
of the Exchequer, admitted the
impossibility of continuing the agri-
culture subsidy. Both said, in effect,
that the government had decided it
must get rid of every vestige of the
war policy of control and subsidies
The Chancellor declared that he must
bluntly tell the House it was impos-
sble to continue an expenditure of this
kind with the other colossal commit
ments.
The president of the Board of Agri-
culture made his statement moving the
second reading of bill to repeal the
agricultural act, passed last December,
which guaranteed minimum prices to
the farmer for his produce and was
estimated to entail subsidy amount
ing from 92o,o00,0O0 to f3o,OOO,00o
yearly.
The government proposed instead,
said Sir Arthur, to pay the farmers
this year a composite sum of s3 per
acre for wheat and Ga for oats, which
would mean q government expenditure
OF between s15,000000 and e35, 900 900
this year. Thereafter the payments
would cease altogether.

Peace With All Nations
Soviet Minister to Turkey Tells
OF Brotherly Feeling Toward
COustantinODle

CONSTANTINOPLE, July (By The
Associated ress).-Soviet Russia has
no desire to occupy Constantinople
but desires peaceful relations with
Turkey and with all nations, declared
NJ. Nathanarow, the new Russian Boil
shevik Ambassador to Turkey. in pre-
senting his credentials to Mustapha
Renal Pasha, head of the Turkish Ma
tional government.
"The period when the cars coveted
Constantinople and strove to plant the
cross of Santa Sophia is definitely
closed" the Ambassador said. "The
Russian people are animated by
brotherly sentiments toward the
Turks, who are the natural allies of
Russia. Communist Russia repudiates
the foreign policy of the czarist gov
ernments, and desires to entertain
peaceful relations with all nations.
Turkey, who is fighting heroically for
her independence, will soon recover
from the defeat she suffered during
the World War"

Pren,iers Are Reluctant
To Take Up Irish Issue

LONDON. July 4 (By The Associated
Press) .-The British public, with the
Anglo-Japanese treaty apparently
pisconholed pending the attempt to
bring about discussion with the other
Pacific powers with the view of reach
ing some agreement respecting that
part of the world, is wondering what
the premiers attending the imperial
conference will find to talk about until
July %, when they are scheduled to
finish their work in London.
Some of the newspapers suggest they
should take up the Irish question, but
most OF the dominion representatives
prefer to leave this responsibility to
the imperial government. It is argued
that the general foreign policy, which
is the next subject on the agcndas must
await settlement of the Pacific ques-
ton.
Another meeting Of the Premiers
was held to-day, but the usual secrecy
was maintained regarding the proceed
ings. Baron Hayashi, Japanese AM
bassador to Great Britain, who has
been in close touch with Lord Curzon,
the Foreign Minister, during the time
the Anglo-Japanese treaty has been
under discussion, was called to the
Foreign Office shortly after the con-
ference adjourned.
The conference at it's session took
up the question of naval defense, but
arrived at no decisions. A confidential
memorandum from the Admiralty was
laid before the members, although it's
nature was not made public.
The same question will come up for
discussion tomorrow. 1t is stated that
henceforth an official summary of the
daily proceedings will be issued to the
press

2 Sought in 100000
Jewel Robbery Caught

NEW HAVEN, July 4.-samuel
BENDER, alias Joseph Willis. thirty
three years old, and Harry Feinberg,
alias Harry Wener, forty-nine, were
arrested by private detectives tonight
at Savin Rock and locked up at the
New Haven police station as fugitives
from justice. The police describe the
two men as two of the cleverest
craftsmen in the country. They are
under indictment in Newark, N. j..
Tor several burglaries.
One of the crimes charged against
the couple, the police say, is a 100000
jewel robbery at the Streicher Ring
Company plant, in Newark, in Octo-
Der, 1920. Feinberg recently opened
q restaurant at Savjn Rock, a shore re-
sort, and when Bender paid him a visit
tonight the detectives arrested both
men.
The restaurant was crowded with
holiday throng when two private detec-
tlves and two local police sergeants en-
tered. AS the officers drew their re-
volvers there WIS a scramble of patrons
to get under tables and through win
dows, but quiet was restored and the
suspects were taken into custody without

Forget League
Senator Says It's a Dead
Issue in U. S., During
independence Day Speech
Given in Tammany Hall
Irish Recognition Urged
Disarmament Is Favore d
When Nations Can Agree
To Do So at Same Time

Senator David |. Walsh, Democrat,
of Massachusetts,, the orator of the
day at the annual celebration of Amer
lean independence at Tammany Hall,
outlined the policies he believed should
be pursued by his party in the future.
Declaring the League of Nations a
dead issue because of it's emphatic re-
pudiation by the American people, he
advocated an adherence to domestic &C.
Invites rather than to foreign en-
tanglements. He also gave his views
on international disarmament.
Resolutions were passed calling upon
the United States government to rec
ognize the Republic of Ireland, as we'll
as to encourage disarmament among
all nations.
Among the other speakers were T. n.
Caraway, of Arkansas; Representative
Otis Wingo of that state; Abraham
Kaplan, president of the Municipal
Civil Service Commission, and Alexan-
der I. Rorke, former Assistant District
Attorney of New York County.
Grand Sachem John r. Voorls pre-
sided, an Americans creed was read by
Commissioner Kaplan and the pledge
to the flag was r re-, by the braves
Club sang, Wards Band played and
the Declaration of independence was
delivered by Alderman William T. Col
Inns.
Senator Walsh blamed the Democratic
defeat in the last campaign on the in
lection of foreign issue. He declared
that the League of Nations, rejected
by the American people "by an amazing
preponderance of votes, should find no
harbor in the rejuvenated Democratic
party"
The tasks of the Democrats, he said,
were to restore individual liberties of
expression and action, to oppose the
growing tendency to curb individual
liberty, to insure to every man his in
alienable right Of life and happiness,
to fight savagely against the forces as
sailing the fundamental concessions of
the Constitution, to insist upon Ameri-
canism before internationalism to
preach brotherhood and destroy politi-
cal and economic oppression at home,

afternoon the visiting Harvard Glee

cadero One of the most impressive
ceremonies of the day took place un-
der the historic Arc de Triomphe at
noon, when the Harvard Glee Club
members assembled and laid a wreath
on the tomb of the unknown soldier
there. The students stood in silence,
WIN barred heads, as the wreath was

Earlier in the day the recently or

WITH French and American flags. The
Washington statue in the Place d'Jana
also was covered with the emblems
of the two nations.
Hundreds of American tourists went
to the Place de PEtoie throughout the
day and paid homage at the grave of
Frances unknown poilu, while many
Americans and numbers of French ar
lists and critics attended the opening
of the exhibition of American paint
ings and statuary at one of the large
galleries. The display was due to the
initiative of Mrs. Harry Payne Whit
ney and is for the purpose of making
known to the French art world the
current tendencies of the American
school and generally familiarizing the

American artists.

He proposed that the party take as
it's slogan "No Extortior of the People
by Big Business" in contrast with the
Republican campaign cry of LESS Gov

Assails Reactionaries
The speaker reviewed the attitude of
voters in both parties in recent years.
He declared the old lines between them
have been obliterated. The influx Of
reactionaries into the Democratic
PARTY, he believed, destroyed the conf
dcnce which large elements of inde-
pendents had in It, He pointed to the
early years of the last Wilson Admin
istration as the highest pinnacle Of
Democratic success and prestige, dur
ing which, he explained, the party's
control of the national government
gave unmistakable evidence that it was
the most advanced, enlightening force
for good and rightful achievement in
the whole political world. When 1--WE
wandered from those principles of po-
vigorous opposition to favoritism and
privilege we met defeat" he said.
Concerning the issues before the
country, the Massachusetts Senator
gave first the necessity for considering
and settling "our basis of future rela-
tions with foreign nations, particularly
those against whom and with whom we
fought in the recent war" He advo-
Gated the re-opening entirely Of the
roads to spiritual and commercial in
tercourse with Germany and the Cen
trail Powers for both moral and eco
nomic reasons. AS for the Allies, "we
the principles for which we fought" he
said.
Must Not Disarm First
Regarding Disarmament, he said the
question is not whether the United
States should disarm by agreement
with other powers but shall it disarm
first without such an agreement. The
latter proposition he at once declared
absurd when taken in relation to our
trade and abroad and the need for pro-
lines from possible aggression.
"This country will never let it's army
and navy dwindle to such a size that
it will be unable to give the fullest
protection to it's territories" he ex-
claimed with fervor, "as we'll as to the
rights of its nationals wherever they
are infringed. We should, however,
use every possible step to bring about
disarmament, to lift the immense tax
burden from the backs of the people Of
the world. The summoning of council
composed of representatives. from the
chief world powers is step to which
the Democratic party must give its full
and enthusiastic support. Our position
as heavy creditor nation fits us ad-
mrably to take the initiative in the
calling of a diarmament conference"
Resolutions were then adopted that
the United States maintain the largest
military forces until universal peace
is assured by universal disarmament,
and until that time comes that the
government establish greater forces on
land and sea than those being built by
any other nation, at the same time en-
couraging those countries to disarm
