 For Ipore than three years the sol dier has been under a mental cloud, an aftermath of the gassing and shell shock. Yesterday he recalled his name.
 Now the only thing puzzling officers at Camp Dix is who the soldier is that was buried in Fairton cemetery under the name of John Wallace, and to whom monument was erected. Final disposition of the monument will be left to Wallace when he returns to his home.

KENYON $ BILL
 GETS SETBACK
Senate Alters Unemployment Bill; Measure Destroyed,
 Declares Senator

WASHINGTON, Feb. 16-The sen ate late today recommitted to it's la Dor committee the Kenyon bill to give the president power to speed up, in slack times, and retard, in prosper ous times, public works, as an aid to employment conditions. The action was taken after an amendment had been adopted which Senator Kenyon, Republican, Iowa, author of the blll, said destroyed the measure. It was believed that the return of the meas ure of the committee means it's death.
 The amendment would exempt from the provisions of the bill all river and karbor development, tlCod control and expenditures on irrigation projects.
 Senator Kenyon said that the amendment left only public buildings and good roads within the scope of the bill, and after the amend ment had been adopted, moved to re-commit the bill to committee as he said it was evident the bill had been destroyed and the amendment had been supported with that view in mind. His motion to re-commit was accepted by vive voce vote.
 Provisions of the bill were drarte;i from recommendations of the presi- dents conference on unemployment, and were designed to make possible long range planning of all public works so that the president could, at any time, order cessation or resump-

IRISH UNLIKELY

 SAYS CHURCHILL
Secretary Says That Present Parliament Chosen Because
 Obnoxious to English

LONDON. Feb. 16,-In moving the econd reading of the Irish Free State 1ill in the house of commons today, Winston Spencer Churchill, secretary or the colonies, laid stress on the ne cessity for giving effect to the treaty " clothing the provisional govern nent, as the treaty provided, with lawful powers and enabling it to hold an election at the earliest moment.
 Tt is the claim of the Irish sigma tories of the treaty. he said, that an Irish republic had been set up by the irish people at the elections, and that the republic could only be converted nto free state by the decision of he people. We don't recognize the irish republic and never will"
 The object of the proposed cleo ion, added the secretary, were to se- ure an adequate constituent assem- ply, and "a fresh, normal and, if l may say so, sensible parliament in Ireland"
 Of the present Irish parliament, Churchill declared that it was not chosen because of the fitness of it's

 In brief address in the senate to- day, Senator Ashurst, of Arizona, Democratic bloc, member, defended the bloc and, citing the war finance corporation law which, he said, had been driven through congress by the bloc,' declared it had saved the agri- cultural industry during the crisis of 1920.

Six Million Acre
 Estate Will Be Split
 Into Small Ranches

FL PASO, Tex, Feb. 16.-Possibly the largest private land deal in the history of Mexico was announced here today when A. J. McQuatters, president of the Alvarado Mining Com pany, announced the purchase of the 6,OOO,0OO acre estate in Chihuahua of General Luis Terrazas, former gover- nor of Chihuahua. The land, which is in two pieces, consists of more than 5000 square miles. The northern boundary is approximately 50 miles south of the American border, and the southern boundary about 100 miles north of Chihuahua City. During the revolution, the property was cOnfis- cated, but was recently restored to the owner by President Obregon.
 It is the purpose of the syndicate represented by McQuatters to resell the land in small farms and ranches, and it is announced they will spend approximately $25,0O0,OO0 in irriga- tion works and other improvements. Engineers for the syndicate have been working on the land for more than two years.
 The deal. according to McQuatters, has the approval of the state and fed eral governments and will he com pleted next week when it will be for maily ratified by the Chihuahua leg islature. He declined to make known the consideration to be received by General Terrazas.
 General TerraZaS, who Is 94 years old, was for many years reputed to be the wealthiest man in Mexico.

 Tt is perfectly clear that the repu- diation of the treaty by Ireland would free all parties from their agree ments," the secretary continued, and the position of Britain, standing on the treaty and ready to carry it if others were found on behalf of the Irish nation, to do their part, would be position of great moral as well as undoubted material strength.
 The position of southern Ireland, Cn the other hand, would be one of the greatest weakness and difficulty. The position of northern Ireland would be quite unaffected"
 All the governments information led it to feel that such an assumption as the success of de Valera was in correct. Tn any case" added the sec retary, it would be q pity for us to go threatening and blustei ing at tnls stage and give the impression that the Irish people were being made to vote under duress."
 Abiding to the report of a coup d. etat to overturn the provisions gov ernment, Churchill said:
 There are those who think the present Irish government may be cverthrown by coup d'etat ana a red soviet set up. The British gov ernment does not think that at all likely but if it were, it is quite clear that soviet republic would ruin the Irish cause for a hundred years while not in any respect impairing the as pect of the British empire or the se- curity of Ulster.

 Tt was indicated. however, that ac- ton would be taken as quickly as pos sible because Of the presidents desire to have ratification of the treaties completed without delay.

 Officers at Fort Bliss declined to- day to make any comment on the war like preparations beyond the state ment that no orders for a troop move ment had been received.
 SAN ANTONIO, Texas, Feb. 16.- Belief that no trouble will result at Fl PasO from impending rebel activ- ities south of JuareZ, across the Rio Grande from Fl PasO, was expressed tonight by Major General John L. Hines, commander of the EiEhth Corps area. Hines said he had re- ceived no communication from Brig adler General Robert Howze, com mander of Fort Bliss, Fl Paso, and that he had issued no orders to the commander of Fort Bliss as a precau- tionary measure
 Hines is familiar with the Mexican border situation, having spent sev- eral years in the service on the Rio Grande, and he discredits the report o1 5000 revolutionists assembled in the hills south of Juarez.
 The rumors are that Juarez is the objective of the rebel leaders. While more than 5000 troops of Fort Bliss have been kept in readiness. General Hines said, no trouble was expected for troops by disturbances from across the Rio Grande.
