MISS O'KEEFE SURE
TO BE NOMINATED,
SUPPORTERS CLAIM
Saw Enthusiasm Manifested in
Her Campaign Augers for
Election In November.

Following the wave Of enthusiasm
with which Miss Esther O'Keefe.
Plymouth woman candidate for the
democratic nomination for congress
from the 18th district, was greeted
here in the closing address of her
campaign Saturday night. her many
friends in this city expressed their
confidence yesterday of the outcome
of the primaries tomorrow.
Even the most dubious of her
local supporters were impressed by
the manner in which Miss O'Keefe
won her audience. Many had feared
that the sole arguments used against
her by her opponents-namely that
she was a woman-would have some
effect upon voters, but these doubts
were swept away by the forceful
manner in which she showed her
ability and qualifications for the
congressional seat.
IF the warm response accorded
her candidacy in this city and
throughout the district during the
last week is any criterion. Miss
O'Keefe will enter the house in jan
uary as Indiana's first congress
woman and the third in the history
of that august body-being preceded
only by Miss Jeanette Rankin Of
Montana and Miss Alice Robertson
Of Oklahoma.
While her active campaign closed
at the mass meeting at the local
high school auditorium Saturday
night prominent democratic leaders
Of the city and district. as well as
various womep's organizations. will
complete their efforts in her behalf
today. Women. not only of the dis
trict and state but over the entire
nation, are showing an intense in

Huge amounts were being used

Mr.. Gompers statement follows in

America would sit cheek by jowl

In making these assertions I am
mindful of the amazing propaganda
with which American public life
is beeing flooded. I am mindful or

Of the newly adopted policy of the

FOR PASSING BAD CHECK

A young white man by the name of
C. H. Green was placed in the city Jail
yesterday afternoon by Detective Nc
Intyre, the allegation being that he
had passed worthless checks. The Of
ficer reported that the man had made
out a check for $50 to Sam Kilby, a
taxicab driver. in payment of taxi fare
to the amount of SIS and that he had
received $50 in change. 1t is said that

a forged signature, and later attempt
ed to pass one for SIS at popular dry
goods store in the city, but exper-
fenced some difficulty in completing
the transaction.

tive work in working UP the details of
the case and effecting the arrest of
the man. He will be arraigned in the
city court TINS morning.

MRS. RICHARD EDWARDS

1t was at Lake Maxinkukee that
Mrs. Richard Edwards of Peru, Ind.
first vice president OF the League of
Women Voters, first glimpsed her
husband.
II think I was all of H." says Mrs.
Edwards, land was visiting at the
cottage of a friend of Mr.. Edwards
mother. He was sent over to call on
me and his report of the call is that
turned my back on him and looked
out of the window until just before he
left, when, according to his mothers
command. he invited me to go sail
ing"
At that the story goes, little Marie
Stuart, as Mrs. Edwards was then,
condescended to glance at the lad
and found that "even though he was
snub-nosed and freckle-faced, he was
rather nice"
Three years later they met again
at the lake, and, says Mrs. Edwards:
'The lake played so big part for
each Of us that we eventually spent
our honeymoon there and go back each
fall for a week at that time of the
year
I'VE have started the next genera
ton in. because my young son is not
only learning to swim and sail on
Maxinkukee as his father did but he
goes to summer Woodcraft School at
Culver"

THEFT OF CHICKEN is

thief who visited his chicken house
and carried away II fine chickens dur
ing Thursday night, F. A. Gunter of
Brens asked the police yesterday that
they keep a close watch-out for his
fowls and, the person or persons who
appropriate them. Some time back an
out-of town poultry grower lost some
fine chickens in like manner and
reported the loss to the local police
with the result that the thieves were
brought to justice when they attempt

Gunter hopes to do the same, but so

the present administration have been
much impressed by the arguments ad-
vanced for soviet recognition and the
resumption of full trade relations with
Russia, but on the contrary repeated
discussions of the Russian situation
at President Hardngs cabinet table
have also developed a strong opposi-
ton to any recession from the position
taken heretofore by the American
government.
What may be the reaction from the
decision of the allied council, tending
toward recognition through Russian
participation in the economic confer
ence, remains to be seen. No official
advices as to the plan for Russian par
ticipation or the conference project
itself had reached the American gov
eminent tonight, and meantime high
officials both at the white house and
the state department refused to COM
ment.
BY some officials it was suggested
tonight that more participation of
Russian representatives in the confer
ence would not in itself be taken as a
recognition of the soviet government.
The Russian situation, it was said. was
one which could not we'll be disregard
ed in any canvass Of European finan-
cial elements, particularly since some
of the great powers are in active trade
relations with the Russians. In that
canvass officials said, there might
naturally be a feeling that the best
available means of representation for
Russia must be adopted without in
any way prejudicing the powers as to

Americans Make No Comment.

WASHINGTON. Jan. 6.-American
officials are unwilling to comment, at
the present stage, on the deliberations
Of the allied council at Cannes, but
they are giving the impression that the
United States will be represented ade-
quately at TIE economic conference
which is to meet at Genoa in March.
The preponderance of official opin-
ion just now seems to favor American
participation by fully accredited dele
gates. rather than by unofficial OBJ
servers, burt that is a point that will
have to be decided when the detailed
purposes of the conference have be-
come known.
In regard to the reported proposal
of the council to recognize in effect
the soviet government of Russia, the
attitude of the Washington govern
ment Is less clear. Outwardly, how
ever, there has been n9 indication
pointing to a change of opinion since
the American refusal to recognize or
have any intercourse with the soviet
officials, as set forth by Secretary
Colby's note of August, 1919.

REHABILITATION OF
EUROPE Is SOUGHT
Unanimous Approval For the Calling
of an International Financial and
Economics Conference.

| CANNES, Jan. 6.-Definite action
looking to the rehabilitation OF Eu-
| rope from an economic standpoint was
taken at the first session of the allied
supreme council here today when
unanimous approval was given for the
calling of an international financial
and economic conference. in which
| Germany and Russia are to have a
part. Some time during the first two
weeks Of March has been set for the
momentuous gathering, and Genoa,
Italy. has been designated as the place
where it shall be held.
An invitation to the United States
to participate has been extended
| through the American ambassador to
Great Britain, George Harvey, who Is
here as official observer for his gov
eminent.
Russia's participation in the Genoa
conference IS conditional upon accep-
lance Of a number Of conditions
namely that she cease bolshevik prop
uganda abroad, that she undertake not
to attack her neighbors and that she
recognize all the honorable obligations
entered into by preceding Russian
governments.
Premier Lloyd George Of Great Bri-
tain took the most prominent part in
I the deliberations, speaking for an
hour. In his opinion place for de-
cisive action had been reached if the
economic structure of Europe was to
be saved. Describing the present meet
ing of the supreme council as the most
IA r. Il
clared that the public opinion Of the
world demanded that the allies take
wider responsibilities to revive Eu-
rope.
The prime minister Sounded warn
ing that the allies themselves must
solve the problem of facilitating Eu-
rope economically and he appealed to
them to forget their prejudices and CO.
operate with this end in view.
Given the floor Immediately after
the French premier, NJ. BRAND, had
welcomed the delegations in the grand
salon of the Cannes Yacht club, Mr..
Lloyd George launched into sharply
pointed references to the French
claims growing out of the war.
He said the British were equally en-
titled to put forth claims, since their
taxes as a result of the war were
twice as heavy as any other country.
Remark of the British prime min
lister that most impressed the dele
gates was his reference to the preju-
dices that might exist against enter
ing into relations with the soviet gov
eminent because it had blood upon its
hands. But" he declared. II know
country which quite recently took
the hand If an assassin in the Near
East"
The passage was Immediately trans
lated for NJ. BRAND who first smiled
at the reference to the Angora treaty
between France and the Turkish ma
tionalists, and then retorted: Yes, but
we made his acquaintance in Lon
don"
The reference to the fact that the
Kemalists we're invited to London to
confer with the allies last spring pro-
voked laughter. The French premier
