SOCIETY AIDS COLLEGE
Interfraternity Conference
Takes Definite Stand Against
'RoughhOuse' and Hazing.

Postmaster General Will H. HAYS.
representing the Phi Delta Theta frater-
nifty at the second day session of the
thirteenth annual lnterfraternity confer
ence. held yesterday in the Hotel Penn
sylvania, said he attributed much of his
success in life to the fact he was IAN
enthusiastic fraternity man."
"The fraternity" said Mr.. Hays, who
is president of the Phi Delta Theta So
ciety, sis vital factor in the solution
OF many college problems and it exerts
a powerful influence upon men during
the formative period of their lives"
He said he felt certain that many of
the problems with which he had to con-
tend while living in his fraternity house
at Wabash College materially helped to
develop his character.
Dean Edward E. Nicholson of the Uni
versity of Minnesota and Dean Arthur
Ray Warnocll of Pennsylvania State
College told the meeting that organized
fraternities were welcomed by the facul-
ties of most American universities as
helpful in the governance of student
bodies. Other college deans requested
the aid of fraternities in handling such
problems as intemperance, immortality
and betting.
Inc meeting TOOK definite stand
against 'roughhouse" hazing and initia-
tons The questions of limiting chapter
memberships and the avoidance of lavish
ness in the erection of fraternity houses
were discussed. The 220 delegates
present represented forty-eight national
fraternities and ninety-seven colleges
and universities In this country and
Canada. The conference was said to
have been the largest held during its
existence.
f. H. Nymeyer, member of Zeta Psi
at the University of Illinois, was elected
chairman of the conference. DR.. Thomas
Arkle Clark, dean of men at the Univer-
sity of Illinois, was reelected educational
adviser to the conference. Other off,
GERS elected were: Secretary, John J.
Kuhn, Delta Chi; treasurer. Wayne M.
Musgrave, Alpha Sigma Phi; members
OF executive committee. Don r. Almy,
Sigma Alpha Epsilon; DIR. Walter II.

world might term a successful woman
This is the thing being done by Mrs
Mary Terrill Watts of Audubon, Iowa,
who is credited with having been the

United States. Mrs. Watts is enrolled
in the University of Kansas for special

Mrs. Watts has been booster for the

DANGER OF CIVIL WAR
PREDICTED IN ITALY
Returning Americans Say Fos-
cisti Is Storm Centre.

There Is danger Of civil war before
summer in Italy, according to Americans
among the 1,794 passengers who reached
this city yesterday on the Cosulich
liner Pres;Genss Wilson from Naples
and Trieste. The storm centre is the
Fascist, the organization OF former
soldiers which is opposing radical ele-
ments.
According to Celestino di Marco. a
contractor of 239 East Seventeenth
street, who has spent five months in
Italy, conditions are going from bad
to worse In Italy owing to the extreme
factionalism. He said the demands of
the soldiers are becoming prohibitive
and a clerical party Which has been
formed still further complicates mat
ters.
Among the other passengers on the
liner were twelve Sisters OF Charity
from Newark ana New York who were
received by the Pope, and Nine. p.
Cattadore. an art collector of 79 Fifth
avenue. who brought back collection
of tapestry, furniture and paintings.

'DUGGIE,' PLUNGER,
HERE FROM LONDON
The Man Who (Nearly) Broke
the Bank at Monte Carlo
Tells of Feats.
HAS "A RACING SCHEME
Wants to Establish System
Of Turf Accountancy
for BettOrS.

Martin Harry Benson, who Is known
Douglas Stuart and In the more exclu-
sive circles of London and Paris as
"Duggie," arrived in New York yester-
day aboard the steamship Adriatic and
went directly to the Biltmore Hotel.
There he told why he had come to the
United States, modestly denied that he
was the biggest bookmaker in-the world.
just as modestly denied that he ever
had broken the bank at Monte Carlo.
and then admitted that on three sep
arate occasions he had gone to the re-
sort in Monaco and practically put the
institution on financial crutches.
'I have never broken the bank at
Monte Carlo" said Mr.. Stuart, but l
have crippled it several times. The last
thing I did to 1t was 10 take 1000
pounds from 1t at roulette last jan
uary."
Mr.. Stuart said that while his princi-
pal purpose in the United States was
"to look and to see" he hoped also to
eSldDllSH u VI luC obNaAe ~ .
tenn Of Turf Accountancy. AS he ex-
planned 1t, this appears to have some
thing to do with horse racing, systems
somewhat similar being conducted at
jamaica and Belmont Park. The way
similar systems Gre operated in this
country is for one to believe that a GER
tain horse might win, and to strengthen
that belief with the rent money, and
hen after the race is run one says
"Shucks" and visits the bank.
The first pari-mutuel betting machines
in England were established by Mr..
Stuart. He had some idea, he said. of
establishing such things in this country,
but gave up the idea when he heard that
they were not quite unknown. He still
hopes, however. he said last night, that
he might be able to put the machines
in at Jamaica and Belmont Park and
at Aqueduct. He was informed that no
one has as yet obtained that conces-
sion because the law makes them impos-
siblc.
Mr.. Stuart and his secretary, Col. II.
E. Winter, went to show last night
soon after they had registered at the
Biltmore, and Mr.. Stuart said afterward
that he had seen the best comedian he
ever saw in his life. He also praised
the lights of Broadway.

and Charles Kenny, president Of the
Minnesota Farmers Cooperative Eleva-

to allow this kind of beer is backed by
the-farmers Of the Northwest solely as
an outlet for S0,000,000 bushels of bar

This step is the only sure way, they
said. to hiring relief to the farmers of
the Northwest, 1t would mean an addi-
t,onal yearly income to them of about
$500 100000, according to the testimony
of the two farmer representatives.
Mr. Jones also made the assertion
that this kind of beer is non-intoxi-
eating, and suggested that the COM

weeks.
The general court martial reached its
verdict in an hour and ten minutes,
following the close Of arguments by
prosecution and counsel for the de-
fendant.
Captain Chew is the first officer to be
tried under the 1920 code, effective Feb
ruary of this year, which provides
for Immediate announcement by the

FIT Harrison, of Mississippi, that they
take up the question of: declaring the
barley malt beer Misunderstanding with

The movement is one entirely by
the farmers and is not backed by the
brewers, testified Mr.. Jones, who read
to the commission the petition which
is to be circulated among the farmers
in Minnesota, North and South Dakota,
