pretty rash in urging them to marry

them to make a decent living.
To be sure. the law considers a girl

U. S. Will Not Be Represented
at Preliminary Meeting
in Brussels.
MAY CUT GERMAN BILL
French Willing to Compromise if
Britain Will Cancel
Her Claims.

PARIS, October 4.-Thc opening of
the conference for the discussion of
the interaIlied debts and the German
indemnity to be held in Brussels. has
been tentatively set for December !.
The preliminary plans provide for
strictly European meeting without
Americas presence.
Premier Poincare strongly favors
meeting of the European nations first,
for there is a growing feeling on the
part of the allied governments that
at least one European conference on
reparations and debts will have to be
held before the cooperation of the
United States can be expected.
Despite anxiety over the near east
crisis. the allied powers. especially
Belgium. are beginning to give coI-
sirable attention to the forthcoming
meeting. Exchanges of views have
already taken place between the
french and Belgian governments over
the questions to be discussed. AS
soon as the Turkish problem is fairly
on the way to settlement. converse
tions will be held periodically be
tween representatives of the Paris
and London governments.

in return for the cancellation of the
French debt to Great Britain and the
SurrenderinS by the latter power of
her share in rcparations, which
amounts to % per cent
one of the most important factors
toward the success of the Brussels
conference is thought to be the mis-
SION to Washington of Sir Robert
Horne, the British chancellor of the
eXchequer. A satisfactory arrange
ment between the United States and
Great Britain for the consolidation
of the British debt would insure the
success of the Brussels gathering is
the view of the allied observers. The
outcome of Sir Roberts Washington
visit is, therefore, awaited with the
keenest interest
chequer is expected back about the
middle of November. on account of
this. it was felt that the conference
could very handily begin December /.
Although America Will not be dis
couraged from sending a representa-
tive to Brussels, NJ. Poincare and
other allied officials are believed to
be convinced that the best way to
engage the active interest of the
United States in the question of
interallied debts is for the European
nations to get together first, reduce
the indemnity and settle their own
respective war obligations.

NECHEM WILL
PRACTICE LAW
IN DUKE CITY
Announces Decision at.
Lawyers Club; LoCa
Lawyers to Investigate
Government Matters Here

! Albuquerque is becoming a
| haven for eX-governors. Governor
| NJ c.. Mechem will take UP the
practice of law here and will make
/ the city his home, he announced to
fellow lawyers at a luncheon of the
Albuquerque Lawyers club yester-
day, He will come here at the eX-
piration of his term, he said. The
legal profession is the greatest one
going and he is glad to be getting
back in it, he said.
The first meeting of the winter
season of the club, following a
luncheon at the Y. NJ. c. A., was
devoted to a discussion of a num-
Der of local governmental prob
lens in which the legal profession
might be of some assistance. A
number of committees are to be ap-
pointed by the president, II. b.
Jamison, for legal investigations of
interest to the public.
The feasibility Of a county and
city government to take the place
of the present separate forms will
be Investigated by the club as to its
legal phases, it was decided. The
club, being political, will take
no stand either way in the matter
but will study the forms from q
legal point of view.
The plan now in operation in
New York and Denver and other
cities eliminates one set of officials
at a considerable financial saving,
it is said. The boundaries of the
new county include only the part
occupied by the city and its sub
urbs.
A committee will be appointed to
draft a new law providing for
easier annexation of suburbs into
the corporate limits OF the city, to
take the place of the present cum
bersome laws, it was voted. The
club will not take any stand on
this subject, either.
The matter of electing lawyer
as probate judge in the county was
discussed at some length. 1t was
decided to appoint a committee Of
six members, three from each
party, to seek lawyers of each
party to run for the office, and to
persuade the county conventions to
nominate a lawyer for the office.
Legal knowledge is vitally neces-
sary in handling the affairs OF the
probate court through which thou
sands of dollars pass, it was
brought out.
Donald Wilson, Junior partner of
Wilson and Wilson, was taken into
the club. Governor Mechem will
present his application for MEM
bership when he locates in Albu-
querque.

CITY FIRE Loss
A PER CENT Of
STATE 8 TOTAL
Chief Henderson Tells High
School Students AIbu-
querque's Suffered Be-
You'd Proper Proportion.

Fire Chief Robert Henderson, adj
dressing the pupils of the high
school on fire prevention yester-
day, said that the total fire loss in
New Mexico last year was $9S7,9SS.
and the fire loss in albuquerque
was $140,S77. or IA per cent of
the total. As the population of
Albuquerque is four per cent of
the population of the state. the
chief said, it can be seen that the
loss here was out of proportion.
This year, however, the chief
said, the city is making an envl-
able record. If the remaining three
months carry out the percentags
shown by the first nine months, the
per capita loss for 1922 will be
s2.10, while in 1921 it was $3.50.
The loss during the first nine
months. within the city limits, to-
tailed $4,000, this year.
Unknown Causes.
over so per cent of the fire loss
in Albuquerque last year was from
fires whose cause was unknown.
Nearly all large fires, Except ex-
plosions), are so classified for the
reason that fires causing the larg-
est losses generally have such n
start that the cause can not be de.
termined.
Rubbish, trash and grass caused
over per cent of fires, all prevent
able.
Defective stoves flues. sparks
over IA per cent; all preventable.
Defective oil stoves and lamps.
over per cent. Carelessness in
handling coal oil and not keeping
the lamp and stove clean.
Defective wires and short circuit,
over 10 per cent. Caused by ANA
teur electricians, poor installation,
run down equipment and jumping
fuses with wire.
Children and matches and care
less smoking, over per cent. All
carelessness in allowing the chill
dren to have matches and that
smoker that never watches where
he threw that match or stub.
Ashes, over per cent; all pre-
ventalNs. Miscellaneous, over 8
per cent. Unknown, over 80 per
cent.
Following the chiefs talk, the
high school held a fire drill and
emptied the building in fifty-five
seconds. The firemen then gave
a demonstration of fire fighting.

SALvACES
OLD WATER MAIN
FROM RESERVOIR
Pipe Laid in 1884 Found to
Be in Good Condition and
win Be Used on Broad
way.

The city expects to save $1,000
or more by the salvasing of por-
ton of the abandoned lO-inch wa
ter main that runs from the res
ervoir, through the grounds of the
University of New Mexico. and di-
agonally, under private property,
to East Central avenue at Elm
street. This old main became use
less with the laying or the new
tA-inch main down East Central
avenue from the reservoir The
new main was put into service yes
terday, after having been flushed
out the night before to remove dirt.
About ! 900 feet of the old main
will be salvaged. The remainder of
it cannot be removed, as 1t would
be necessary to dig through private
property and possibly undermine
houses and other buildings. The
city officials have feared for some
time that this old main might give
trouble by breaking and washing
out foundations. The pipe removed
Yesterday was found to be in good
condition. 1t likely will be removed
to South Broadway and be used as
a feed line from the Broadway
pump TO the main pumping sta
ton. The pipe is estimated to be
worth at least $1,000.
City Manager Calkins said yes
terday that be believes the removal
of the old main to have been n
good business stroke for the city.
The laying of the new 14-inch
main by the city also proved to be
a good venture, he said, as large
saving under contractors figures
was effected. The exact figures
have not been compiled. The work
required about three weeks and
was done by the city's engineering
department and the water depart
ment. Charles Shoup of the water
department Is perintending the
removal Of the old 10-inch line.
The old main was laid in 1884,
when there were no houses in the
east highlands and it was not ex-'
pected any would ever be built.
