Harding at Ft. Lauderdale
Will Reach Miami To-day

MIAMI. Fla, Jan. 28.-The house
boat Victoria, on which Prcsident.elect
Harding is cruising down the Florida
coast, tied up tonight at Fort Lauder
dale, about thirty miles above here, and
is expected to complete her southwark
voyage to this port tomorrow.
Miami is the most southern point on
the Victoria's schedule. but. after
short stop here, Mr.. Harding will trans
fer to faster boat for trip to fish
ing ground to the southwest. He will
remain there in virtual seclusion for
several days before beginning his re-
turn cruise to st. Augustine.
In her sailing to-day through the
sortuous passages Of the lower Indian
River the Victoria got into trouble
several times with the natural obst-uc-
tions Of the channel, and once had to
wait for more than an hour while a
bis dredge backed out of her way in
one Of the narrows. With her arrival
at Fort Lauderdale, however, her
troubles were practically over. She
probably will dock here about noon to-
morrow to put her distinguished guests
ashore for game Of golf.
IN elaborate reception originally was
planned here for the President-elect
and his party, but after consultation
with him officials Of local reception
committee announced that his visit
would be celebrated only by display
OF flags and other patriotic emblems

King Would Rid America
OF Red Propagandists

WASHINGTON, Jan. 2S.--Resolution
before the Senate Foreign Relations
Committee proposing measures to ex-
tend American trade with Russia were
assailed to-day by Senator King, DEM
ocrat, Of Utah, in an extensive ad-
dress in the Senate.
"There is propaganda to deceive the
American people" said Senator King,
denying that there were any obstacles
against individual Americans trading
with Russians. Any American, Sena-
tor King declared, was also free to go
to Russia, so far as American restric-
tlons were concerned.
II wish many who are agitating for
recognition Of the Russf~n Soviet
would go to Russia. We would be glad
to get rid of thern," the Utah Senator
added.
Senator King denounced the Soviets
at length and had several lively clashes
with Senator France, Republican, of
Maryland, author of the Russian trade
resolution. The latter declared that
refusal of the United States mints to
coin any gold Of Russian origin was
one barrier against free trade with
Russia.
New-York tribune., 1921-01-29

mixed jury, which ended to-day in q
disagreement, has occupied 3 large
share Of public attention in the four
days it was in progress. The fact that
1t was the first jury of its kind, that
the allegations were sensational and
that Bernard Shaw saw fit to inject
himself into commenting on the case
are the main reasons for the atten-
tion excited.
The hearing was on the plea of Mrs.
Ethel Allen for a restitution of con-
jugal rights. Her husband, Major Har-
old Allen, in cross bill, named Cap
tain Huge Melville, q cousin of Mrs.
Allen, as correspondent.
Letters which passed between Mrs.
Allen and her cousin we're introduced
in evidence, but Sir Edward Marshall
Hall, one of the most eminent crimina |
lawyers of England, who was a counsel
in the case, requested that these let
ters be not shown to the six women
members of the jury.
1t was this circumstance that drew
from Bernard Shaw this morning g
strong blast against 'prudery" in the
proceedings.
ut was part Of Sir Edwards case
that these letters passed between man
and woman" writes Shaw. "Then why
in the name of common sense did this
blushing barrister exclude the six
Jurymen from the apology he thought
1T necessary to make in presenting
them to the six jurywomen?
ut was my first case before mixed
jury and l hope / never have another
one," complained Sir Edward when the
proceedings had ended.

ton was perhaps fatally wounded by
tae dying officer. Deputy Sheriff W.

The warrant charging assault with

Rich Barn Dweller Walks
5 Miles to Save 10 Cents
Prefers Jail to Paying for Ca
rage Permit Until Magistrate
Threatens to Fine Him

William Mohrmann, who owns three
houses and lives in barn to save ex-
pense, told Magistrate Conway in police
court, Jamaica, Queens, yesterday that
if it was all the same to him he'd
take term in Jail instead of paying
for a garage permit for a stable in
which he lets space for automobiles.
Upon learning that he might be fined
as we'll as imprisoned, however, he
agreed to apply for a permit Monday
and his case was adjourned until then.
He asked if he was to be taken back
to the police station, where he has ex-
pressed complete satisfaction with the
board, and was somewhat disappointed
to find that he was not. He had to go
anyhow, he said, to get SIS which the
police had taken from him when he
was arrested.
"It's too bad" said Magistrate Con-
way, "but you'll have to go at your
own expense this time. However, it's
only ten cents for the round trip
Mohrmann asked how far it was and
was told it was about eight miles.
ooh, can walk that" he said, and
set out.

Answering another question, de
Valera says that those who talk about
the Dali Eireann, or Irish Republican
Parliament, accepting dominion home
rule, are simply fooling with the
phrase"
"The question between Ireland and
England" De Valera continues, "is
this: The English, although they are a
foreign nation, claim the right to inter
fere and have the principal share in
determining for US how we shall be
governed. We deny their right to in
terfere in this matter, which is and
should be, purely domestic question
for ourselves alone. E. =. If there
should ever be British statesman who
will really desire to bring peace to the
peoples Of these two nelghboring ISL
ands, he will approach the task in the
following manner: First, acknowledge
1reland's right as a free and inde-
pendent nation as preliminary. For
England's sake, as we'll as Ireland's,
this will be necessary, FOR any agree
ments made under the duress Of force
or supposed existing partnership
which Ireland denies-would not be
worth the paper they were written on.
Second, then negotiate with ireland
such a partnership or alliance as the
common interests Of both islands may
suggest, and on terms the peoples of
both countries agree upoh."

Old Dobbin Leads Police
To Owners Raisin Jack
Mollie Jogs Nine Miles to Home
and Still When Turned Loose,
and Causes Earmer,s Arrest

ALLIANCE, Ohio, Jan. 28.- Old
Dobbin has not lost his usefulness.
For more than four hours a weather
beaten looking old horse hitched to a
buggy was left standing on a down
town street. The outfit was examined
by. the local police and brought to o
Police Headquarters. Suspecting that
the rig might have been used to brinp
raisin jack to Alliance customers. two
officers suggested that the horse be
turned loose and allowed to return
home.
They mounted the rig and the horse
logged nine miles out in the country
over the rough roads, pulling up at q
barn on the Andy Beg farm. Mr.. Beg
came from the barn, but disclaimed
ownership. He has two little daughters.
and they at once identified the horse
and buggy, gently patting Mollie and
showing a loving caress for the old
mare.
A search Of the barn was made and
twenty gallon still was dis
covered.
Beg was arrested and fined $500 bv
Judge M. c. Moore and then turned
over to tho Columbiana County offi~
cials, IN which county the farmer lives.

make inquiries Of naval officers for
their views on whether the capital shin
is obsolete.
The committee will take up the
Borah resolution at meeting Tues
day. 1t will consider whether the res
olution should be reported and at the
same time will go to some extent into
the merits of the controversy which is
raging about the capital ship and the
question. whether this country should
go ahead and complete sixteen dread
noughts. The inquiries of the commit
tee before acting on the resolution may
take wide range.
Differ on Army Bill.
Storm. warnings were up in the
House to-day over proposals of the
regular army to 150, 900 men.
The appropriations bill making pro-
visions for that number during the
next fiscal year was reported by Chair
man Anthony, of an appropriations SUBJ
committee, but it was indicated that
Republican members Of the Military
Committee planned to fight it out on
the floor. Several members expressed
their unwi}lingness to accept further
reduction below the 5000 figure fixed
by House and Senate recently in res
olution which reached the White House
to-day for consideration Of the Presi-
dent.
Under that resolution, which directs
recruiting be stopped until the present
enlisted strength of more than 100000
gets down to l75,000, the army would
not reach the lower strength in the
normal course before next September.
The proposed cut to 10000, however,
would presumably leave the War De-
partment without funHs or authority to
maintain force in excess Of that
number after June 80.
Wilson's Action Awaited
There was speculation among army
officers to-day as to what action Pres
ident Wilson would take on the 49,
600 resolution. In some quarters it
was thought he might let it go back to
Congress without his signature to be-
come law at the expiration Of ten
days, expressing dissent to the plan in
that way. 1t was admitted, however,
that there was no indication as to the
attitude Mr.. Wilson would take.
Chairman Kahn of the Military Com
mittee said he believed it would b. q
mistake to cut the army below 175,00O
at this time. In reference to Repre-
sentative Anthony's statement yestsr-
day that President-elect Harding fa-
vors the 10000 figure, Representative
Kahn said that in his conference at
Marion he got the impression that Mr..
Harding regarded that step as advis-
abIe ultimately" but not at once,

From The Tribumes Washington Bureau
WASHINGTON, Jan. 2s.-In the Sem
ate Military Affairs Committee to-day
favorable action was taken on the con-
firmation Of more than five thousand
original appointments of army officers.
The committee authorized Senator

vorable report to the Senate.
The appointments were made by the
President under the army reorganiza-

Senator Wadsworth, on behalf Of the
committee, will make further effort
on the floor to have Major General
Hunter Liggett promoted to lieutenant
general by passing the bill to author
ize the President to appoint one lieu

Generals Peyton c. March and Robert

this session. General Liggett will re-
tire as major general March 21, unless

n1e1t Ouer Question Of POLICY

LONDON, Jan. 28.--The announced
resignation of Roger N. Sweetman from
the Irish republican Parliament, owing
to what he termed a radical disagree
ment with the majority Of his fellow
members on vital matters of policy, is
creating big stir in Dublin.
prominent Sim Fein leader to-day
told The Associated Press that the res
ignation meant the final quashing of
the peace movement, in which Mr..
Sweetman and Father Michael O'Flan-
agan, acting president Of the Sim Fein,
participated conspicuously. 1t was Mr..
Sweetman who proposed early in De-
celnber conference between the Eng
lish labor mission visiting Ireland
and the Irish Labor party for the pur-
pose Of effecting truce in Ireland
Another reason for the resignation
Of Mr.. Sweetman was given in state
ment from another source to-day. This
was to the effect that there was a
meeting recently of the Dali Eireann-
the first since Eamon de Valeras re-
turn to Ireland-at which a vote was
taken on the question of peace or q
continuance of the struggle. It was
said that Mr.. Sweetman was the only
one present who demanded peace, the
others voting to keep up the fight.
