tBy The Associated Press Another
attempt to stabilize the peace of
Europe will be undertaken here Mon
day with the Inauguration of the Near
Eastern conference, attended by prac-
tically all the powers of western and
southwestern Europe.
Primarily summoned to establish
peace between victorious Turkey and
defeated Greece, the conference pos
sesses vast importance to the United
States and to all Europe It must
settle the various problems that have
grown out of the Turks return to the
continent. from which they were ex-
PEELED after the great war. as well
as the alidominant question of the
freedom of the Dardanelles, in which
America has a natural interest.
The conference must lay down
Turkeys new frontiers and take up
the delicate question of Turkeys capi-
tulations, on concessions whereby
foreigners in Turkey. like those living
in China, have been exempt from
Turkish laws and free from taxation.
Turkey demands freedom from these
restrictions and ciamors for national
administrative liberty.
Without departing from her tradi
tional policy of non intervention in
European politics. the United States
has shown her interest in the forth
coming developments of the confer
ence by designating thee observers

WEST IN PLAN
Burlington President
Suggests Compromise
IN |. C. C. Hearings.
Hill Group Further Op-
poses Divorcement Of
Its Northern Lines.

Washington. Nov. 1S.-Higher Off
cials of the Hill group of railroads in
the northwest continued to present ad-
verse arguments Saturday before the
interstate commerce commission on the
governments tentative railroad consoli-
dation plan in the northwest. The
plan would divorce the Great Northern
from association with the Northern Pa
cific and the Chicago, Burlington &
Quincy and combine it with the Chicago,
Milwaukee & st. Paul.
Hale Holden. president of the Bur
lington, suggested that the commission
might consider more adFantageously
creation of four far-flung railroad mer-
gers through the west, each of which
would tap the Mississippi basin, the
Gulf of Mexico and the Pacific coast.
Would Unity Hill Roads
Howard Elliott. chairman Of the
board of the Northern Pacific, declared
that instead of considering any divorce
of the three grouped roads, the com
mission ought to unity them even more
completely into single great transpor-
tation machine, while Ralph Budd.
president of the Great Northern. said
that if divorce within the Hill group
was forced. the logic and practicability
of things called for union of the
Northern Pacific with the Chicago, Mil
waukee & st. Paul.
Professor William q. Ripley, who
laid down the tentative outlines Of the
general consolidation, said interchanges
with Mr.. Holden suggeStfve~ef~eAe Ae~com

had in mind would result in great de-

Perhaps So Mr.. Holden returned,
sbut my point is that in the consolida
ton plans. the commission has gone
either too far or not far enough.
Two Roads incompatible
Alr. Budd's argument against the
splitting off of the Great Northern was
that the st. Paul and Northern Pa
cific systems were far more supple
mentary to each other than the Great
Northern and st. Paul could be
"A Great Northern combination with
the St Paul would weaken both lines

1T would indeed, increase tendencies

However, in no place in the United
States has the tentative consolidation
plan of the commission been based on
so great disruption of established
railroad association as that proposed in

mined until after congress conyenes at
noon next Monday.
The situation which will arise if Mrs.
FELTON, presents herself to Vice Presi-
dent Coolidge, viii be unprecedented.
She. was appointed on October by
Governor Hardwick of Georgia TO the
place made vacant by the death of
Senator Thomas E. Watson.
Since that time, however, Walter f.
George has been elected to fill out Mr.
Watson's unexpired term, and he, too,
holds commission for the seat Mrs.
FELTON, seeks.
George to Aid Woman
In visw of this, senate leaders
agree with Governor Hardwiek that
Mrs. FELTON, has no legal right TO the
senate place, but they said Saturday
they were not disposed to interpese
objection unless MIR. George should
make demand for his seat Monday. Mr.,
George has announced he will do oil he
can legally to aid Mrs. FELTON, in full
filling her desire TO sit in the senate,
if only for day.
However, il was agreed at confer
ence Saturday between Vice President
Coolidge and Chairman Curtis of the
senate rules committee that. irrespec-
tive of Mr.. Georges attitude. if any
individual senator offered objection
Mrs. FELTON, could not be sworn in if
precedent were followed. This prec-
edent was made by former Vice Presi-
dent Marshall in the case of Former
Senator Benet of South Carolina. ap-
pointed TO succeed the late Senator
Tillman. Mr.. Marshall held that Mr..
Benet ceased to be senator under
the law after a successor to Mr.. Till
man had been elected by the people
of South Carolina.
Acts in Behalf of Woman
Should Mrs. FELTON, be seated it
was stated that she would serve with
out pay under the statute which pro-
vides for the beginning of the salary
of senator elected to fill an unex-
pired term on the day of his election.
Mrs. Felton's friends declared the
salary was not a consideration-that
she herself had stated, it was her sole
desire to blaze the road for the wom-
anhood of America" to Il senate place.
Mrs. FELTON, arrived here early Sat
urday unattended. Because of her ad-
vanced age, 81 years, she was fatigu-
ed by the trip and spent the day quiet
ly in her room at hotel Soon after
her arrival, she received newspaper
correspondents and later was visited
by officers of the National Woman $

address, making a comparison be-
tween Ethan Allen, the military hero,
and his brother, Ira Allen, who as
statesman was influential in the
founding of the state and as a scholar
in laying the foundation of education
in Vermont. Mr.. Hayward con-
trasted the conditions of the time of
Ira Allen and the present and drew
impressive lessons from the character
of the man. He was followed by
School Director F. E. Stafford and
Superintendent Howe, who also drew
lessons from the character of Ira
Allen.
The portrait was unveiled by
Agnes B. Towne of the senior class
and was accepted by Principle C. ].
