coinciden en- asegurar que ell arte in

una gran leccion de belleza para las

A tales elogios hay que agregar
algunas palabras de Maurice Maeter-

una carta dirigida a Gomez Garlic
Sc expresa de esta manera:

OFFICERS MAKE
RAID ON TURK
Three white Mule Vendors
Landed by Police.

One of the heaviest fines for violating
the prohibition laws imposed this year
was given to Ignatius Turk, 04S Haugh
street, yesterday, IN city court, by Judge
Walter Pritchard. He was fined 500 and
costs and sentenced to serve sixty days
on the Indiana State Farm. When po-
lice officers raided Turks home Sunday
night, they found a fifteen gallon still
in operation, $50 gallons of corn mash
and twelve gallons Of white mule" Be
meath the kitchen floor was a hiding

forty gallon receptacle, each Of which
contained some corn mash.

PLAN COMMISSION
TO CONSIDER PLAZA.
The meeting today of the city plan
commission is also attracting consid-
cradle attention, for the plaza project

form. Mayor elect Shank has said that
he would be willing to abide by the de-
clsion of this commission and for that
reason Its deliberations will have an in

ponents Of the memorial project.

man of the Marion County council of
the American Legion, and Walter Myers
were appointed a committee to arrange
the program for the mass meeting. A
large number of organizations, including

Legion, the Legion Auxiliary, composed
of wives, sisters and mothers of former
soldiers, and the Service Club will par

promise principles" The most impor-
tant thing, American officials said today,
wss that the whole conference is now on
record as having agreed to something
which can be used as a starting line for
the real work.
The immediate business in hand was
the discussion of the four general prin-
ciples proposed by Elihu Root and ac-
cepted without reservation by all of the
powers and the manner in which these
principles are TO be applied to existing
Chinese problems.
The principles pledge the powers ~ to
respect the territorial and administrative
integrity of China; (2l to give China full
and unhampered opportunity to work out
her own government; 49, to respect the
open door and equal economic opportu-
nifty for all, and a. TO refrain from tax
ing advantage of present chaotic condi-
lions In China to seek special privileges.
The four principles are considerably
broader and more general than were the
ten principles proposed by China herself
last week and the Chinese accepted Roots
program with some disappointment. They
had been hopeful that the powers would
accept China's own program for her re-
Mobilization, and some confusion exists
to just what Roots substitution means
They accepted, however, without protest
Acceptance Of the Root principles
brings the statesmen squarely up against
the task Of determining just what con-

stitutes the China of today. Rigid appl-
cation Of the third principle would deny,
for instance, Japan's claims to special
interests" in Shantung, Manchuria and
Mongolia, three "Iost" provinces which
the Chinese came to Washington in frank
hopes of getting back.
THIRD PRINCIPLE
BRINGS UP QUESTION.
The third principle pledges the powers
ito use their influence for the purpose
Of effectually establishing and maintain
ing the principle of equal opportunity
for the commerce and industry of all
nations throughout the territory of
China"
The question that arises under the in
depreciation of this principle is whether
the China of fifty years ago or the China
Of today is to be taken as a basis for
consideration. The map Of China has
changed much In fifty years, as the
powers kept "nibbling" at her territory
through outright annexation and the
less bold, but equally efficacious method
Of spheres of influence"
There Is reason to believe the Root pro-
pOsals are a part of the Hughes program
for the settlement of Far Eastern matters.
NAVAn EXPERTS
ALSO IN SESSION.
The real work has started on adjust
ment of China's intricate and complicated
affairs, with the acceptance by the powers
of the Root program as the foundation
on which to build.
While the principal delegates went at
the Chinese problem, the naval experts
continued their technical discussion of
the ship program.
Beyond the general statement that
progress is being made" there is no
indication that the opposition Of Japan
being relegated to a poor third in the
naval strength of the world, Is in any
way disappearing.
