FORMER EMPEROR
CARL MUST LEAVE
Little Entente Nations De-
mand Carl Leave Hungary
Before Thursday.

Paris, April (By U. P.)-The
nations of the Little Ententes will
adopt military measures on Thurs
day, if Carl, former emperor, does
not leave Hungary before that time,
Foreign Minister Benes of Czech
Slovakia, declared in a message to
a newspaper in this city.
1t had previously been rumored
that the former emperor had left
Hungary, following the failure last
week to recover the throne, but the
message of Benes indicates clearly
that Carl has not yet left Hungary.
The Little Entente nations are con-
siderably worried over the future in
case Carl should re-establish himself
on the throne.
London reports that former En-
peror Carl will return to Switzerland
today, according to reports from the
British Foreign office. Reports said
that negotiations with Austria and
Switzerland for a safe-conduct for
Carl had been completed.

ENGLAND FACES
GRAVE CRISIS
Million, Two Hundred Thous-
and Coal Miners Now on
Strike in Britain.
INDUSTRY HIT HARD BLOW
Miners and Allies May Attempt to
Seize Control of the Gov
ernment.

London, April (By A. P)-Gov-
ernment officials believe that Great
Britain is today facing the gravest
crisis that has confronted the nation
since the call for the first hundred
thousand men for the World War in
1914, with a million and two hundred
thousand coal miners already on
strike and industry over all England
suffering greatly from the effects
of the fuel shortage.
Week end meetings of miners and
their allies in England showed a de-
cided trend towards sympathetic
strikes. The activities of the miners
and their allies is now being looked
upon as a possible attempt to seize
control Of the government. The Of
ficias of the government believe
that the activity portends an attempt
to impose a great socialstic expert
ment upon the country.
Predictions are being made today
that the struggle with the striking
miners will continue for at least four
or five weeks. The miners have re-
newed their former associations and
will not accept the wage cut of from
thirty-tive to forty shillings, which
have been made in some districts.

CLOSE RESULT
IS EXPECTED
City Election is Over Shadow
ing the Vote on Soldiers
Bonus Amendment.
HOT BATTLES BEING WACEO
Tight Finish for Mayor and for the
commissioners Seen by Local
Election Dopsters.

The agitation that has been going
the rolnds during the past four
weeks Of the city election campaign
has caused the local election to over
shadow the vote on the soldiers
bonus amendment, and the state tick
ct, and with w~rm sun pouring
down its rays todaF, a big vote is
beirg looked for loc lily.
From the time that the polls were
opened at 700 o'clock this morning,
the voters were almost constantly
visiting the polls in the six precincts
of the city, and there is every ey-
pectation that the vote recorded in
Alma today will approach closely to
that Of the national, state and county
election of last fall.
The fact that matters have been
thrown into the campaign, which
properly have or should have, no
bearing on the result, promise to
have q big effect on the final out
come, it's believed by those who have
followed elections here in past years.
There is no indication as yet what
the result may be, as every indica-
tion points to a close race for all of
the city offices. Mayor Murphy and
Karl r. Adams are believed to be en-
gagged in a pretty "hoss" race for
the executive head of the city. Frank

are seeking to dis?lace Albert j. Ar.

HELD FOR TRIAL
Often Continued Examination
of Murder Suspect Was
Finished Thursday.
MURDER IN FIRST DEGREE
That is the Charge on Which the
Alma Belgian Will Face
the Court.

The examination Of Oscar Collins,
the % year old Alma Belgian, who

Ithaca justice of the peace, before
whom the hearing was held, bound
Collins over to Circuit Court to stand
trial on a charge Of first degree
murder at the April term.
The examination had been contin-
ued several times, and as a result
was al ong drawn out affair.
The prosecution finished the sub
mission of its evidence two weeks
ago Saturday, at which time the de-
fense asked for a continuance for a
week. A further continuance was
then asked by the defense until last
Wednesday, but because Of the in
ability of securing the court stenog-
rapher at that time, the examination
was continued to Thursday when it
was quickly brought to conclusion.
The defense made it plain from
the witnesses that were called on
Thursday that il was making a
strong effort to learn just how much
the officers knew in connection with
the Collins case. As a result of this
attempt 0. L. Smith, prosecuting at
torney, Oscar Vibbcr, chief Of police.
and Sheriff Willert were among
those called to the stand.

SLAIN NEAR DETROIT
Former Alma Business Man Killed
Near Dearborn.

With six bullet wounds in his body
Michael Nassau, Toledo fruit mer-
chant, was found dead beneath his
automobile truck on Gulley road,
near Dearborn Friday.
The body was identified by Mich
olas Nassau, a brother, who told
deputy sheriffs that Michael had re-
ceived threats of death because he
was underselling other fruit mer-
chants in Detroit and Dearborn.
Nicholas had been waiting in De
troit for his brother and when he
failed to appear, drove out Michigan
avenue, arriving in Dearborn shortly
after the body was found. The
body was removed to the Wayne
county morgue.-Detroit Free Press.
The Nassau brothers were in bust
ness in this city few years ago,
running a wholesale fruit establish
ment with headquarters in the Pol
lasky building near the depot. Mi
chael Nassau was the better known
of the two men, to Alma residents.

UP AGAIN
Truth in Fabric Bill to BE Back in
Congress Says Greene.

Chicago, April 4-'Though the
original Truth in Fabric bill. which
was designed to compel textile manu-
facturers to stamp their cloth with
its content of virgin wool and Of
shoddy, ceased to exist when the last
Congress adjourned; | wish to assure
the friends and foes Of this measure
that its advocates have only just be-
gun to fight"
This statement was made today by
Howard +. Greene, Secretary Of the
National Sheep and Wool Bureau Of
America, No. 23 East jackson boule-
ward, Chicago. The Bureau has been
acting as the leader in the Truth in
Fabric campaign. Mr.. Greene con-
tinued:
Senator Arthur Capper, of Kan
sas, and representative Burton l..
French, Of Idaho, have made all ar
rangements 10 re-introduce the Truth
in Fabirc bill Immediately after Con-
gress assemblies and both are deter
mined TO use their utmost ability to
force the measure through before the
session ends.
at is scarcely - months since the
original Truth in Fabric bill was in
troduced into Congress. Aided by
their knowledge Of the Pure Food
Law, the people of the nation were
prepared to understand the need for
compulsory labelling of cloth and
this accounts for the hold which the
Truth in Fabric issue has already
secured.
con the ev Of it's re-introduction,
the Truth in Fabric bill has the in
dorsement Of at least $50 organiza-
tions, many Of them national in
SCOPE, with memberships aggregating
millions. They include practically
every farm and stock organization in
the land, dozens of chambers of com
merce, civic, social, labor and wo-
mems clubs and associations and, last
but not least, five state legislatures.

REASONS FOR
THE MEMORIAL
President Crooks Of Alma Col
lege Tells Of Needs and
the Desires.

More than two hundred and fifty
boys-students and former students
of Alma College-enlisted for service
in the World War. Not all Of that
gallant little band returned. There
are gold stars on Alma's service
flag.
Who among US would seriously af-
firm that it is uniting to build a
memorial building dedicated to the
memory Of the young men and wo-
men who entered the service, on the
campus Of every college in this coun-
try.
Alma College should not be un-
mindful in this matter The practi-
cal question that confronts her, then,
is this:
What sort of a memorial should
she build?
The answer suggests itself. The
memorial should be a building that
the boys who enter the institution
in the days to come will use. A
memorial gymnasium answers every
requirement.
But Alma College needs an audi
torum. The community needs one.
With only a slight modification of
he conventional plans, the auditor
ium and the gymnasium can be COM
bined in one building. A proper re-
spect for public opinion requires that
they be combined.
In projecting a memorial gymnas-
'um and auditorium the friends of
The college turn naturally to Gratiot
