State in the Union is better prepared to
bid for the tourist business than Indiana
In fact, every portion of the common
wealth offers rare attractions in the form
of scenic and historic spots, and these
native shines stretch from the hill coun-
try of the south to the wonderful lakes
and sand wastes bordering Lake Mich
igan.
Tourist camp sites are a great asset
to any community Mr.. Lieber says, and
at his suggestion several cities which
heretofore have neglected this business
are preparing to take advantage of the
increased prosperity possible through au-
tomOtive travel These camps, Mr.. Lie
Der says, will provide parking facilities,
sites for camp fires, and some will be
equipped with commlssaries and first
aid stations for machines.
MANY TOWNS
WELCOME TOURISTS.
Among the cities which already have
tourist camps are: Wolcott, Batesville,
Charlottesville, Columbus, Middlefork
(Clinton County,. Scottsburg. Bonneville,
Rockville, Pendleton. Indianapolis, Gov
ington, Richmond, Lebanon. Goshen,
Franklin, Delphi, Plymouth, Portland,

This Tells Why
Women AnSJUer
Just Because

BALTIMORE, Jan. 4,--Why does a
woman say Just because?" Answers to
this question, put to the seniors Of
Goucher College by Prof Ethel Bowman,
of the department of psychology, indi-
cate that the chief reason, simply
enough, is because she has nothing bet
ter to say. The great majority Of the
girls, while denying that an educated
woman today ever uses such an answer
offered a widely varying number Of rea-
sons for the famous reply, chief among
which were mental laZiness, a love of ap-
pearing unfathomable acting on intuition
rather than reason, dislike for argument,
and-sometimes because a man wouldn't
understand a woman's answer anyhow.
Other popular explanations, according
to Professor Bowman, were as follows
To gain time. Because men expect it.
Self defense dislike Of committing
oneself. A suitable answer for trivial
questions. Habit, tradition and environ
ment.
There was a pretty general feeling"
said Professor Bowman, that woman's
use Of this traditional reply has been
greatly exaggerated. Over dozen girls
fatty asserted that men use it as much
as women do. Some of the comments
on this point were interesting to the
effect that the phrase must have been
attributed to women in the age when men
considered them brainIess, that the
answer is a survival Of the time when an
attractive woman wasn't supposed to be
too intelligent and that men are often
Incapable Of catching the finer distinc
lions drawn by woman's more subtle
mind"

ALLIANCE HELD
IMPROBABLE

LONDON, Jan. 4-Briush officials ex-
pressed the firm confirmation today that
Premier BRAND Of France will make
formal proposal to Lloyd George at
Cannes. that France and Great Britain
enter into close treaty OF alliance
Opinion Is held a Whitehall that the
early arrival Of the French premier at
Cannes was due to his desire to discuss
the matter with Lloyd George before the
supreme council meeting opens Friday.
Advices are the British official position
is this:
"In view Of the fact that France
blocked land disarmament at Washington
and insists upon a great submarine fleet
against the wishes Of England and Amet-
lea, the time is inoppOrtune for the for
nation Of a binding alliance"
One official outlined his views az fol-
lows;
Formal alliance between the two
countries IS impossible, though France
may rest assured that we would go to
her aid If the 1914 aggression were re-
peated.
From high source Is was learned that
the British expect VI. BRAND to start
bargaining at Cannes for an alliance up
on the basis of French concessions on
land and sea reductions.

ANGLO-FRENCH
RELATIONS IN
ENHANCEMENT
Observers Predict No Alliance
Will Come From Cannes
Conference.
BRAND HAS PROPOSALS

CANNES. Jan. 4-European history of
the next ten years was in the making to-
day. With the arrival of Premier BRAND
Of France, in a binding snow storm
which bIotted out the beauties of the
Riviera, delegates to the Cannes confer
ence laid aside the frivolity that has
marked the week and serious preliminary
conversations were begun.
The fate Of the French cabinet and of
Anglo French relations were considered
by observers to be in the balance as he
supreme council meeting got under way.
BRAND BRINGS
THREE PROPOSALS.
Three propositions were brought to
Cannes by Premier BRAND.
l. He will seek to limit the supreme
councils discussions to questions of
reparations and the economic recon
struction of Europe.
2. France has proposal for ac-
cepting German payments on terms
more favorable to Germany.
8. BRAND will seek to bring about
some form of Anglo French alliance.
In each of these three projects 1t is be-
Heved BRAND will be opposed by the
British.
Lloyd George with whom the French
premier entered into private conversation
shortly after his arrival today, is known
to favor economic aid to Russia and
Germany as a subject for the councils
deliberations.
England wishes German markets opened
to British goods The British premier
also will oppose Brands proposals re-
garding reparations, and will have his
country behind him In rejecting any offer
Of an alliance with France Frances iso-
lation, brought about by the attitude of
her delegates at Washington Is felt to
have weakened her position. She has
only Belgium to support her views, it Is
said.
Brands personal fate is believed to
be ia the balance. He and his cabinet
must certainly go, observers of French
politics declare, If he fails to put across
the French viewpoint here. And the
odds are against BRAND
Whatever she gains from the conference
France is certain to pay the penalty for
her recalcttrance at Washington and
taste the first bitterness Of the isola-
ton she established for herself British
here declare an emphatic no" is ready
for Brands proposal for an alliance.

AFFAIR UP TO COUNCIL

BELGRADE, Jan 4-The tension be

Servian officials today.
The foreign office has not received an

the departur of Italian men-of-war from
