NORTH VERNON, Ind, March 5.-The
town OF Vernon, two miles south of this
city, will hold a town election Monday,
March Z. Three tickets are in the field,
Republican, Democratic and Citizens.
The two old parties failed to place the
names Of any women on their tickets.

meeting and named citizens ticket and
a lively contest is expected. The women
say their candidates viii be the victors,
while the men are fighting vigorously

FOREIGN DEBTS
ARE MELONS
GREAT WORRY
New Secretary Tackles Prob
lem in Conference With
Houston.

WASHINGTON, March 5.-Europe's
ten billion dollar debt to the United
States is at the top of the calendar as
one of the most urgent problems press
ing for adjustment under the new Ad-
ministration This vital question con-
fronted the new Secretary of the Treas
ury, Andrew w. Mellon, when he took
over the affairs of office. Secretary Mel
Ions first day was devoted partly to
a study of the debt matter.
Secretary Mellon, in a series Of con-
ferences with David f. Houston, the re-
firing secretary, and with other officials,
was made oOnversant with the status of
the foreign loans and went at some
length into the various phases of negO-
tiations previously begun by foreign gov
ernments relative to the funding Of the
outstanding obligations.
President Harding's inaugural utter
ance indicating that suggestions for can
collation. of the debts will meet with re-
lection apparently started the new Sec
rotary on clearly defined policy.
The plans of several of the foreign gov
ernments to enter at once on negotia-
lions looking to the conversion into long
time obligations of the demand notes now
held by this Government we're before
Secretary Mellon. The British, French
and italian governments have notified
the Treasury Department of their willing
ness to begin conferences in the near
future.
At the department 1t was suggested
conferences would not be commenced I'M
til the whole question of debt settle
ment terms has been discussed by Presi-
dent Harding and his Cabinet
In what respect the previous plans OF
the Treasury might be changed was LETT
to conjecture. The probability, it was
said, was that entirely new discussions
would be inaugurated, without reference
to any tentative understandings which
may have been reached previously be-
tween representatives Of this and other
governments.
Thus far the general outline Of the
plan for adjusting the foreign loans
has been to fund them into obligations
with maturities running as far as thirty
years, with n reasonable deferment OF
the interest for a period of years, pend
ing Europe's rehabilitation.

WOMEN PLEAD
NOTTOBE SENT
BACK TOEUROPE
Immigrant Aid Head Says
Investigation DisclOses
Fraud Scheme.
FALSE PASSPORTS SOLD

NEW YORK. March 5.-"Please, oh,
please, don't send US back"
That was the fearful cry of despair
time and again at Ellis Island today I'M
til the words, repeated by scores Of I'M
migrant women and children, who are
victims of false passports, including fake
United States consulate vises obtained at
Danzig and Warsaw.
II, H Schlacht, commissioned recently
by the Department Of Labor as head OF
Immigrant aid at Ellis Island, said he
was convinced, after thoroughly investi-
eating 100 Asses of passport frauds with
in the last three days, that former resi-
dents of the United States were response
BILE for defrauding these poor, helpless
women of their worldly all and that ac-
ton by the United States State Depart
ment would be necessary to stop 1t.
RUSH FOR PASSPORTS
GIVES OPPORTUNITY.
Owing TO the immigration rush to
America from Poland. long lines of peo-
pie. with their children and packages
come in front of passport offices, in
GLIDING the American consulates at Dan
zig and Warsaw for days, even weeks,
sleeping on the ground at night" said
Sclacht They are approached by al
wise stamps.
"They explain TO these women 1t Will
be unnecessary for them to wait in
definitely In nne-that for a proper fee
passport troubles will be smoothed away.
The women are himhammed, generally
parting with all their cash, above the
price of the steamship steerage passage,
to get q passport quickly.
WOMEN CHIEF
FRAUD VICTIMS.
upon reaching America. the land OF
their dreams and hopes, they are shocked
and disheartened to learn they have been
defrauded.
Il find more than e5 per cent Of all
such passport frauds are perpetrated on
women immmigrants."
1t is understood that the Department
of Labor, while recognizing the peculiar
situation in which these women have
been placed, hesitates to allow them TO
enter. inasmuch as that would set a
precedent and in effect condone passports
frauds.
