LONDON. Oct. 12.-(By the Asso- ciated Press)-A liberal cartoonist to- day depicts Premier Lloyd George making a flight from Manchester in a new English glider" the discarded engine being the conservative party. This broadly represents the political situation, for although Austen Cham berlain, Lord Birkenhead. the Earl of Balfour and other conservative mluis' tors are still supporting the coalition the bulk of the conservative party is believed to be opposed to the contin. uance of MT Lloyd George in the lead ership and anxious to get back to the party system.

Keep your fingers crossed
 Look out for ladders and spilled salt
 And run if you see a black cat For today is Friday. the 18th, the star Jonah combination of them all. That is. if you're sdperstitious.
 But if you're inclined to scoff at the Friday jinx idea, here are a few arguments in your favor:
 Columbus expedition which discov- cred America set sail on Friday and landed on Friday.
 Richard Henry Lee introduced the Declaration of Independence on a Friday.
 Cornwallis surrendered on Friday.
 And to argue against the 13 SUD- erstition:
 There are 13 original United States. There are 13 stripes in our flag and, originally, it contained 13 stars.
 Professor Wilson considered 13 as his lucky number-and he was right about it-California's thirteen elector- al college votes reelected him.
 As for Friday, the 18th:
 General Pershing was born on Fri day 13.
 The Tanks won at St Mihiel on Friday, Sept. 13, 1918.
 Where the Friday 13 idea came from is still in doubt. The most probable explanation is that the Crucifixion gave rise to the Friday part, and the words for death" and for thirteen were identical.

DISMISSAL OF WARD
INDICTMENT LOOMS
Grand Jury Minutes Will Be
Handed to His Attor-
neys To-day.

The minutes of the Westchcster
County Grand Jury which indicted Wal
ter S. Ward for the alleged murder of
Clarence Peters last May will be turned
over to Wards attorneys by District
Attorney Weeks at 10 o'clock Monday
morning. 1t Is expected that after they
have examined them Wards lawyers
will go before Justice Joseph Mors-
chauser and move for the dismissal of
the indictment. Attorneys in White
Plains who have followed the case ex-
pressed the opinion yesterday that this
motion would be granted.
District Attorney Weeks made the
announcement that he would turn over
the minutes after he had returned from
Brooklyn, where he went in an effort
to have Supreme Court Justice Kelly
grant a stay on the order Of Justice
Morschauser granting Wards attorneys
permission to see the minutes.
II denied the application of the Dis
trict Attorney" said Justice Kelly, be
cause the order of Justice Morschauser
is not appealable under the Code OF
Criminal Procedure"
Justice Kelly could have granted the
stay asked by the District Attorney, but
he refused. undoubtedly because he took
the position that an appeal from Justice
Morschauser's order would be denied by
the Appellate Division. The code spe-
"ifically states that such an order is not
appealable Hal Justice Kelly granted
the stay. therefore, useless litigation
would have resulted.
II Justice Morschauser grants the mo-
tion for the dismissal of the Indictment

Grand Jury is not In session, have Ward

eide, second degree murder or man.
