Play Himself In as
Golf Club Captain

LONDON, Sept. 26.-The Prince Of
Wales is the first member OF the
royal family to get back to work
after the summer holidays. -
He will play himself in tomorrow

Golf club, of st. Andrews, from
which the eminent of = Field Mar
shall Earl Haig has jUlal retired. His
royal highness will be required to
drive off from the first tee before the
eyes of thousands of critical specta-
tors, thus having as severe test i'm
posed upon his nerves as has any
captain-elect since the Royal and
Ancient was founded in 1854. When
King Edward VII was elected to be-
come captain of the club about sixty
years ago, the playing in" was per-
formed by a deputy.
The caddy who finds the ball and
returns it to the captain is usually
rewarded with a sovereign. The ball
is moulded in gold, when the captain
is of royal blood, and in silver when
he is Of lower rank, and is then
added to the collection attached to
two massive silver clubs. With the
Prince Of Wales contribution tomor-
row there will be three gold balls, to-
kens of King Edward, Prince Leo
pold and the new captain. There are
1852 silver balls in the collection.
The Prince of Wales tomorrow
night will preside at the club dinner,
which is always feature of the GER
emony and one Of the privileges will
be paying for all the wine consumed.

PATERNITY Of CHILD
DENIED BY PQUL|N;
CASE NEARS END

SOUTH BEND, Ind, Set. 26.-The
Poulin-Tiernan case is expected to
come to an end today and it will be
left to Judge G. L. Ducomb to de-
eide whether the charges Of Mrs.
Augusta Herman that Harry Poulin
is the mother of her ten-months-old
child are to be upheld.
Following the examination OF
Poulin yesterday the defense closed
it's case. The defendants testimony,
which was intended as a reinforce
ment of that of other defense
witnesses, was in effect a general
denial of previous testimony by the
plaintiff The witness said he met
Mrs. Herman in the summer OF 1921
at a dance to which he was accom-
panied by his wife. At no time had
any improper relations been carried
on between himself and his accuser,
he said, and denied that he had ever
accompanied Mrs. Herman alone to
places where the latter had testified
he had taken her.
AS a forerunner of Poulin's testi-
mony, relatives and business asso-
ciates of the defendant were placed
on the stand and told of seeing
Poulin at church and other places
on occasions that the plaintiff al
leges he was in her company.
Equally staunch in her allegations
was Mrs. Herman and her testimony
was corroborated by that of her
husband, Prof. John Herman, of
Notre Dame university. Mrs. Tier
nan testified that she met the de-
PENDANT at a dance here in the sum-
mer of 1921, that later she and her
husband became acquainted with the
Poulin family and a strong friend
ship grew up between them. AS
their meetings became mo fire.
quent she testified she became in
fatuated with Poulin and her rela-
lions with her husband became
strained and were finally broken off.
After this, at the suggestion of
Poulin, she said, meetings were ar
ranged between the two and the af-
fair was carried on for the better
part of year. Finally, she testi-
fed, she told Poulin she was about
to become a mother and that he
acknowledged the paternity Of the
unborn child. Following this, how
ever, she asserted, Poulin broke off
relations with her and refused to
speak to her when the two met on
the street. She decided then, she
said, to confess to her husband, and
told him Of her relations with
Poulin.
The hearing of the case was re-
plete with sensational Incidents.
During the first part Of the trial
the spectators were constantly in an
uproar and it finally became neces-
sary for the hearings to be held be-
hind closed doors.
There is a possibility that Judge
Ducomb may reserve decision in
the case for several days and coun-
sci for both sides have indicated that
an appeal.wi be taken to a higher
court in event the decision is against
them.

Debt Reputation
Would Be Blow to
Britain, Says Burton

LONDON, Sept. 26.-(By the Asso-
ciated Press.)-The disposition Of
the people of the United States is to
require payment of the inter-allied
debts owed to America, Representa-
tive Theodore E. Burton declared in
an address today at luncheon given
by the American Chamber of Com
merce.
Mr.. Burton emphasized that he
was speaking as an individual end
not as member Of the American
debt funding commission or as a
congressman.
mo one can exaggerate the i'm
portance Of credit to the modern f.
nancial and industrial world" he
said. "Cancellation or reputation
of debts woulo create not merely
confusion and distrust in the f1nan-
clal world but would seriously i'm
pair it's future development.
'The result would rest with espe-
c1al weight upon such a country as
England where for centuries past
English currency and English obi
cations have been the very syn
onyms of stability and assured pay
ment."

Roads Begin Attack
On Mileage Proposal
Of. e. Commission

WASHINGTON, Sept. 26.-Rail-
road representatives began today be-
fore the interstate commerce commits
sion an attack on proposals to es-
tablish a system of interchangeable
mileage books for passenger trans
portation over all lines. BY a recent
act of congress the interstate com
merce commission was authorized to
require the issuance and sale Of such
books by all railroads and to fix a
reasonable rate.
c. A. Fox, chairman of the central
passenger association, representing
l48 railroads, declared that the "ef-
feet of the proposition would be to
accord a lower rate to class Of pas
sengers more expensive to handle"
Commercial travelling statesmen, thea
trical companies and other classes
which. he characterized as "organized
traffic" he said, would be able to
secure discrimination against all
of the travelling public If the COM
mission allowed any reduction from
present fares to purchasers Of mile
age books.

JUDGE SUMMERALL
LOSES IN CONTEST
IN COFFEE COUNTY

DOUGLAS. Ga, Sept. 25.-The
primary election contest between
Judge j. w. Quincy, Of Douglas,
and Judge J. I. Summerall, of Way
cross, over the votes cast in Coffee
county in the primary held Septem-
Der 10 was heard Monday afternoon
in Douglas by the Coffee county ex-
ecutive committee. Notice of con-
test and request for a recount were
filed on the day after the primary
by both Judges Quincy and Sum-
neral.
Counsel for Judge Summerall
Monday withdrew his contest and
request for recount, but counsel for
Judge Quincy offered and had al
lowed by the committee an amend
ment setting up additional grounds
of irregularities on the part Of
Judge Summerall and his coworker
in and during the day of the pr1-
mary, which counsel for Judge Quln-
cey insisted were sufficient to throw
out all the votes cast for Judge sum-
neral in the county, inasmuch as
conduct on his part was such as to
render illegal and to affect his entire
vote in the county. A number OF
affidavits of substantial men Of the
county were submitted in support Of
Judge Quincey's contentious, but
counsel for Judge Summeran sub
mitted no counter showing.
After the hearing was complete,
the committee went into executive
session and decided to sustain the
charges of irregularities charged,
and therefore disregarded and threw
out all the votes cast for Judge Sum-
neral, leaving Judge Quincey's vote
to stand. This changed the result of
the judgeship race in the Waycross
circuit, so as to give Judge Quincy
a majority of 278 votes.

LEAGUE Of NATIONS
FAILS To FUNCTION
IN EASTERN TROUBLE
BY EDGAR ANsELL MOWRER
Especial Cable to The Atlanta Journal and
Chica 90 Daily NpWs=Cnnvripht 1900

Especial Cable to The Atlanta Journal and
Chicago Daily News-Copyright, 1929
GENEVA, Sept. 26.-Once more
the three principal powers in Europe
have partially resisted the efforts Of
the smaller nations in the League Of
Nations to transfer to the league
some Of the domination which those
three governments are accustomed
to exercise.
Notwithstanding the efforts Of the
governing British dominions Of
Norway, Persia and India, the unex-
pressed wish of India and the desire
Of Greece and Bulgaria, the repre-
sentatives Of France, Italy and Great
Britain refused to accept the princi-
pie that league Intervention in the
Greco-Turkish trouble could take
place whenever the league see fit.
The great powers which are plan
| ming conference in which once
more they may give their exclusive
attention to the settlement of the
Near East question insisted obsti-
nately that action by the league
must be solicited by "the negotiating
powers"
The result was a compromise and
the great powers and their favorites
will proceed on their independent
course under distinctly felt pressure
from the league that a reasonable
solution must be reached.
In previous dealings with the
Turks. the allies under cover of re-
gard for Christian minorities gave
free action to their economic appe
tite, but as Fridtjof Nansen, the
Norwegian delegate, told the mem.
bers Of the committee the powers
have already arranged one settle
ment which has fallen to the ground
Despite the failure of this settle
ment the powers still insist on treat
ing the matter individually, causing
many members Of the league to fear
that the old economic appetites have
not been entirely satisfied.
