Oxford, N. H., Dec. 6.--This little
town, stirred by the killing of John
and Charles Davis, aged brothers, a
month ago, and by the suicide of Earl
Hibbard, lumberman, on Nov. Is,
was disturbed again to-day by the at
tempt at suicide of Frederick Beddell,
lumber merchant, and one Of its
leading citizens. He shot himself
through the head with revolver at
his home. Members OF the family,
who said they knew of no reason for
his act, said he had slight chance
for recovery.
Official inquiry into the murders of
the Davis brothers still without def
mite clew, turned to Investigations Of
the Beddell shooting. Authorities who
questioned the lumber dealer said he
made statement TO them that he
knew absolutely nothing" concerning
the death Of the brothers.
Investigators in the Davis case have
been prosecuting an unsuccessful
search for two young men seen with
the Davises on the afternoon of Nov.
7, the last day they were seen alive.

AT ALL TIMES
Provided Under Allies
Plan For Dardanelles
and Bosphorus
UNITED STATES
ON COMMISSION
To Control the Near East
Situation Along With
Turkey

/ Lausanne, Dec. 8 (By the Associ
ated Press THE entente plan fo
keeping open the straits Of the Oar
danelles and the Bosphorus in time o
peace and war provides for an ap
pointment of an international commits
sion of control composed Of the greai
powers, including the United States
as well as Turkey and the countries
bordering on the Black sea.
Lord Curzon Of Great Britain, in the
name Of the allies, presented the de
tails of this comprehensive project te
the Near East conference to-day.
The Turks, it appeared had sudden
" realized that the Russian plan for
control by Turkish warships would
force Turkey to build a navy. Hence
doubts had arisen in the minds of the
Turkish delegates, who seemed more
disposed to negotiate scheme for
naturalization OF the straits and the
Black sea, with some form OF inter-
national control.
The allied control plan sets forth a
scheme for limitation of the number
OF warships and total tonnage to be
allowed in the waters under control,
and gives Turkey and the Black sea
countries the right to say how long
warships may remain in their ports.
The plan suggests the demilitariza-
tion Of the straits. 1t also gives Tur-
key the right to search neutral mer-
chantmen in time of war
Delegate Barrere<ef France said the
proposition represented an attempt to
solve the straits problem without in
fringing upon the sovereignty cf Tur-
key or that Of any country bordering
upon the Black sea.
In the conference session Richard
Washburn Child and Joseph c. Grew
presented the views Of the United
States. Foreign Minister Tchitcherin
of Russia opposed the allied PROPOSE
tion.
Adjournment was taken until FRI
day TO permit the Turks to study the
proposal.
Ambassador Child set forth the view
of the United States Independent of
that of any other power. He said the
United States holds that the straits
and the Black sea must be open to
ships and warships Of all nations in
time Of peace and of war, and that it
opposes any plan which would give
one power control, just as ii would in
any other international water.
In his speech Mr.. Child said: Il have
listened with interest to the points of
view Of the various delegations on the
subject of the straits and trust that

,an representatives. will not be unwel.

"Our position is based upon the

Special Committee Reports on Condi-
tions Uncovered in Bur-
lington.

Burlington, Dec. 6.--The committee
appointed to Investigate the condition
of the poor in Burlington, following
differences between the Salvation Army
and Mayor jackson, has reported that
in sixty reports of destitution and need
they visited 80 families in various
parts of the city and found much need
and some suffering, largely caused by
the use Of liquor, unwillingness to work
and inability to make the most Of
what they had"
Relating a conference attended by
many city officials and charity work
ers, the committee declares in its stata-
ment that it @outlined and described
what they found making suggestions
where the police could help out the
poor department and also calling the
attention OF the health department TO
several places that ought to be cleaned
up or cleaned out. The overseer of .he
poor having been in Office so long and
imposed on so often, would be more
than human if he did not get some
what hardened to the appeals, but we
believe that he means to do right and
treat all fairly, and we are confident,
his attention having been definitely
called to the conditions at the present
time, that relief viii be given"
However, the committee recommends
that at the expiration Of the present
overseer of the poor's term some one
be found who would serve without pay
and that the salary of the office be di-
verted to an expert investigator who
win give all her time among the peo-
pie. teaching them how to live and
make the most of the money they have,
as well as seeing that the impostors
are put into prison where they VIII
have TO work for living"
The committee also recommends that
the police follow up closely those who
are spending their money for rum, or
refusing to work, not adequately pro-
viding for their families. =
Other recommendations are Second: |
that the city board Of health investi-
gate and clean up, or clean out, good |
many of the tenements rented by own

Thirdly, that the ovefseer of the poor |

those who ought to be fed and cared /
