BRITISH HOPEFUL
Of RESULTS HERE
Lloyd Georges Desire to At
tend Conference Stronger
Than Ever.
Bx the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press,
LONDON, November 2S.-The fol-
lowing authorized statement Is issued
by Reuters:
"Apprehensions expressed in varf-
Gus directions concerning the proceed
ings at the Washington conference
are not shared in authoritative Brit
ish quarters. While the possibility of
differences. of opinion arising and
temporary setbacks being experienced
Is never lost sight of, yet the British
view is one of real satisfaction and
great hope, for on the naval question
alone more has been done than most
people before the opening Of the con-
ference would have been prepared to
expect.
Hemisphere Cannot Be Isolated.
: sBut, apart from naval disarma-
ment, the utmost importance is at
tached in this country to the restora-
tien of world peace, which cannot be
effected merely in this way.
There is great anxiety regarding
the moral atmosphere of the world,
and it is pointed out that one cannot
isolate a hemisphere or distinguish
between naval and other ornaments.
TT is felt that the recovery OF the
world and restoration of the financial
stability must depend upon the treat
ment of armament questions as
world wide issue.
Wants to Employ Jobless.

cerned, she wants to employ her un-
employed and pay her debts, and she

whether In Europe. or elsewhere.
THE British government Is deter
mined to answer the American sum-
mons in every direction in the general
purpose of ridding the world Of. the
menace of q new war"
The statement adds that this being
the premier's view, his desire to go to
Washington is stronger than ever, but
until a week-"a fateful period in
Irish history"-is passed, it is impos-
sible to say whether he will leave
England.
Accommodations Are Booked.
The most likely date for the de-
the United States to attend the Wash
ington conference Is December 10. as
well as can be seen at the present mo-
ment, according to the London Times.
One suggestion is, the newspaper
adds, that it will be possible to ar
range with the Sim Fein for a con-
tinuance Of the truce over Christmas.
It Is stated in ofiicial quarters that
whether the Irish negotiations con-
tinue or break down. assuming there
Is no dangerous crisis to be imme-
diately apprehended, the premier will
take the opportunity of making a hy-
ing visit to the United States that will
involve his absence for about one
month.
The Times says that accommoda-
tfons have been Professionally booked
for the premier on all vessels sailing
for New York during the next month.

WAWASEE TRAIL
BEING MARKED
HoOsier State Auto Association
Blazes Route to Popular
Lake in Northern Indiana.

The work OF marking the Hills and
Lakes" trail from indianapolis to Lake
Wawasee has been started, according to
an announcement by the Hoosier State
Automobile Association. which originally
blazed this trail several years ago. Many
Of the poles bearing the HI" design
have been blown down or otherwise re-
moved, IT is stated, and 1t WAS Wound
necessary to go over the entire route In
numerous instances where there are no
poles available for the markers. special
boards are being erected to insure that
the traveller will not miss the way.
It Is stated that a temporary route
marking between here and Noblesville has
been adopted. covering the route from II 4;
stone bridge east of the State Playground
turning left on to the Millersville road.
The poles all along this route are now
marked in white with the letters M"
meaning Noblesville- indianapolis. This
leads from Millersville to Fishers via
the steer johnson hill near Fl Harrison
and is one OF the best routes to Mobiles

under construction. At Noblesville. II Is

f Noblet, secretary manager Of the
HOosier State Association. But we want
the motoring public to know that no
benign Providence provides these POLE
markings. They cost money. and who
pays? The membership fees In this asso-
citation. which provide our sole source OF
revenue provide the money to pay for
pole marking work. We have three pole
marking outfits throughout the State Of
Indiana at work steadily and have blazed
thirty-two main trails up and down and
across the State. How a motorist who
does any touring can fail to appreciate
our work to the extent Of becoming a
member Of our association Is a mystery
to us-and yet there are thousands OF
automobile owners who are literally
'sponging' advantages Off Of our associa
ton. This summer when we are doing a
greater civic work than ever before we
are making an extra appeal to all motor
lists to join us and thereby enable us TO
do even more for their good"

MRS. HENDRESS
WITH DAUGHTER
Claim Made Shooting in Home
Accidental Discharge of
Revolver.

Mrs. Maude Hendress. who was found
In an unconscious condition at her home,
go North Sherman Drive yesterday aft
ernoon, after the report Of two revolver
shots had aroused the neighbors, was
located at the home Of her daughter, Mrs.
Donald Dickover, 90 South Noble street,
today.
Mrs. Hendress left the city hospital
last night when It was asceTtained she
had suffered only slight powder burns on
her leg as a result of one of the shots,
and the police were unable to locate her
to patch up the story surrounding the
shooting.
Mrs. Dickover declared her mother was
too nervous to discuss the affair.
Mother was cleaning up the house ppe-
paratory to receiving company" she said,
land found the revolver, which she de-
cided to put away. While she had it in
her hand she picked up the telephone to
call the garage in reference to her car
and placed the gun on her lap. In some
manner it was discharged, the powder
burning her knee.
Mother cannot account for the sec
ond shot. which went into the wall, but
believes it might have been CAUSED when
the revolver slid to the floor after she
tainted. 1t was one of those shots the
men at the garage heard.
Mother is extremely nervous and the
discharge Of the gun caused her to faint.
Reports that mother and father are
separated are absolutely untrue. They
have been living happily together for
many years"
Mrs. Rose Benner, a sister Of Mrs.
Hendress also denied reports that dOmes-
tic trouble might have caused the affair.
