FIRST TAYLOR CASE ARREST
Walter ThieIe's Cap May Figure In
Mystery-MabeI Normand Cues
toned and Cleared.

Los Angeles, CAL, Feb. IA man
who, the police stated, was believed
to be a material witness in the Will
liam Desmond Taylor murder case has
been arrested here. This is the first
arrest in the case. Walter Thiele,
twenty-five years Of age, who said he
was born in Oaland and had been in
Los Angeles for year, was booked
at the city Jail on charges of carrying
a concealed weapon and suspicion of
burglary. During the questioning of
Mabel Normand by Distric. Attorney
Woolwine four police detectives took
into the conference a cap reported to
have been worn by Thiele at the time
of his arrest.
Mabel Normand has emerged tri-
umphant from a three-hour nerve
racking questioning conducted by
District Attorney Woolwine. She
passed through the ordeal without
once contradicting herself or changing
her story. At the conclusion of the
examination the district attorney for
mally announced that, while he might
be mistaken, his impression was that
Miss Normand could throw no light on
the mysterious Staying of Taylor and
was eager to give the authorities ev-
cry assistance her physical condition
would permit.

HARDING MAKES PLEA.
Would Return to the Convention!
System.
Would Benefit the Party, He Declares
Calls Lincoln "the Great
Partisan"

Washington, Feb. Is. - President
Harding pleaded for the return Of the
convention system in addressing the
Lincoln day banquet of the League of
Republican Clubs here. Characterizing
Lincoln as "the great partisan" OF
American history, Harding launched
an appeal for strict party loyalty.
"I'll dare say it'll crave the return
of intelligent conventions" the Presi-
dent continued. II would rather have
men appeal for popular support on
the declaration of responsible con-
vention than on the appeal of man
to his individual locality.
II had rather trust the declaration
of party in a national convention, ex-
pressing the conscience Of its mem
bership than the ephemeral whims OF
the passing moment.
He paid his respects to party "irrec-
oncilables" by declaring he would
rather see a little more Of the parti-
sanship of Lincoln's day than the aloof-
ness of the kind shown recently.
81 believe in political parties" he
said. IF could express one outstand-
ing wish I would rather have little
more of the outstanding party spirit
of Lincoln than the kind we have
sometimes nowadays.
Lincoln believed in party dictum
and party policy. Lincoln was the
great partisan. No greater or better
Republican ever lived. He believed
that the greatest possibilities for SER
vice were in political parties.

gan the practice of his profession In

SENATE IS GIVEN
SEVEN TREATIES
President Submits Pacts of Arms
Meet and Asks Prompt
Approval.
NO ENTANGLEMENTS FOR U. S
No Alliance or involvement Which Re-
quires America to Surrender Any
Worth While Tradition - Con-
tans No War Commitment.

Washington, Feb. 13.-President
Harding OH Friday submitted the
seven treaties of the arms conference
to the senate and asked prompt ap-
prevail" of them.
With the treaties he submitted the
report of the American delegation and
the minutes of both the plenary SEES
sions and the committee meetings of
the conference.
The President asserted there is in
the treaties mo ENHANCEMENT, ALI
ance, or involvement which requires
the United States to surrender any
worthwhile tradition"
i am not unmindful," he said, NOR
was the conference unmindful, Of the
sentiment in this chamber against old
world entanglements.
but can bring every assurance
that nothing in these treaties COM
mits the United States, or any other
power to any kind of an alliance, en-
tanglement or involvement. 1t does
not require us to surrender worth
while tradition"
The treaties the President submit
ted were:
The four-powered Pacific treaty,
which replaces the Anglo-Japanese al
lance.
The supplementary treaty to this
pact, taking the japanese homeland
out of its provisions.
The f1ye-powered treaty that limits
the size Of nayies
The five-powered poison gas and
submarine treaty.
The nine-poWered Chinese treaty.
The nine-powered Chinese customs
treaty.
A treaty covering American rights
in inundated territories gap treaty..
The President defended the four
powered treaty which replaces the
Anglo-Japanese alliance and to which
already much senatorial opposition
has been manifested.
1.-THE four-poWered treaty contains
no war commitment" he said. "There
is no commitment to armed force, no
alliance, no written or moral obliga-
ton to join In, or arrive at, any agree
ment except in accordance with our
constitutional methods"
The treaty, he said, was a mutual
pledge on the part of the four powers
to respect their insular possessions.
The President described the nact
as a moral warning" to the world
that the four great powers of the
Pacific would protect the peace of
those waters.
1t is now up to the senate, he said,
as the executive branch Of the gov
ernment has done it's work, and much
depends on the senate's decision--if
lit is against "these advanced express
sions Of conscience, then 1t will be
futile to try again"
The senate's concern for freedom
from entanglements, the President
said, was never once forgotten by the
american delegation.
The President said that If the sem
ate turned down the treaties 1.-THE re-
public would be discredited, future
peace efforts rendered futile and an
likely, and Encouragement would be
written where there is now world
hope.'

of her class in the United States, for
the month of January.
