dominant figure in Chinese military
affairs, announced today that General
Chen Chung Min, the Kwangtung
leader, with the Tuchuns, or military
governors, of 13 other provinces, had
agreed to the recall of the old parlia

liminary meeting at Tientsin.

adherence to the plan of calling the
parliament into action declared they,
with Chen Chung Min, denounced
President Hau Shih Chang as the
greatest obstacle to the unification OF
China and as being responsible for
most of China's troubles. Hau, the
document declares, must resign or be
driven out.
The Tuchuns listed were those of
Chilli, Honan. Shantung, Shansi, Kan
Su, ShenSl, Hup6n, hundu, hldHSSu'
SZechuan Kiangsi Yunnan and kwei-
chow
A Picking dispatch May Is said Chi
nese public opinion, as reflected in
the press, favored the re-assembly of
the old parliament and declared many
members of that body were so sure
of call that they were gathering at
Canton, Shanghai and Tientsin. 4
group of so of them was said to have
met at Tientsin and invited the Can
ton members, adherents of DR.. Sun
Vat Sen and the southern government

ARMY INCREASED

Washington. Nov. 11.-Declaring
that the strife in eastern Europe shows
the need of America being prepared
for any eventuality, General John J.
Pershing. in an Armistic Day speech
before the National Civic Federation
here today, urged an increase in the
army to a minimum of 10000 officers
and 10000 men.
The question America must answer,
said the commander in chief OF the
armies. as whether we will pay IN
dollars for our days of peace, or IN
dollars and lives when war comes
upon u.s."
Pershing warned against this coun-
try becoming involved in the tangled
military and political situation IN
Europe, but declared America should
watch conditions there carefully SO
that the issues behind the European
strife can be understood and more
easily avoided. Stating that strong
pressure was being exerted Tor Amer
lean intervention in Europe. on pc
half Of the former allies, Pershlng
said "the doctrine of internatlonalism
has found far too many advocates IN
our midst"

Will Revise Boat
Club House Plans
Old Dominions Expect To Have Re-
vised Plans Ready For Con-
tractors Within Ten Days.

A revision of the plans for its pro-
posed new clubhouse was considered by
the Old Dominion Boat Club at a meet
ing of that club held last night.
Some time age plans for the erec-
tion of clubhouse at the foot of King
street on what was formerly the old
ferry slip, are submitted. However,
the bids received for the work were
several thousand dollars in excess Of
the amount the club desires to spend.
1t was therefore, decided to modify
the plans and it is expected that the
architect will complete this work with
in the next ten days. When this is
done the plans once more will be sub
mitted to the contractors and bids
asked for. The club desires to spend a
total of about $1,000 in the erection
of a clubhouse. 1t is hoped by the
club to haze the work started this
winter that its new clubhouse will

Scotland Yards
Chief Near Death
Sir William Norwood, Commissioner
OF London Police, Victim Ot
Poison Found In ChOcoiats.
nv Uni.ed Press.)

London, Nov. l1.-Stricken by
'pison plot which extended its tneacles
into the sacred precincts Of Scotland
Yard itself. Sir William Norwood,
Commissioner of the London police,
is in the shadow of death today.
A bulletin issued from his bedside
said that Sir William had passed
good night, but that his condition was
critical as a result Of having eaten
poison candy which was smuggled
into his office in the group buildings
which house the leaders of Brltalns
world famous secret service-the eta
dal of those who war on crime and
criminals.
The police commissioner is suffering
from arsenic or stychnine poisoning.
Apprehension fthe person or persons
who sent him the deadly candy Is
hampered by the fact that his secre-
tary who also sampled the sweets,
found they had an unpleasant taste,
and threw out what remained OF
them.
The poisoning has created a sensa-
ton throughout all Britain.
Investigation developed that, dur
inc the period Immediately preceding
the attempt on his life, Sir William
received many threatening letters.
He was carefully guarded whenever
he left Scotland Yard. 1t was known,
of course, that he had many bitter
enemies in the underworld but that
thew should attempt to assasslnate
him in his office surrounded by the
pick of the empires secret service
agents. seemed preposterous.
Two weeks ago a box of chocolates
was delivered at the Commissioner
headquarters. The assistant colnmls-
sioner opened the box and Immediate,
" became suspicious. He handed 1t
over to a detective for analysis ana
investigation but so far this inquiry
Apprehension of the person or persons
has been without result
On Thursday Sir Willianl-unaware
of the receipt Of the first box-recelved
another box Of chocolates and ate
some while dressing for the Lord
Mavor's banquet. He Immediately De
came severely i'll and collapsed.
1t is believed and the PRISONERS nuSV
have some means Of spying on the
commissioner and that this criminal
esnionage system resulted in them be-
inc informed that the first box oil
candy had been sidetracked. Then
came the bold second attempt.
Some Investigators suspect that per,
sons actually empolyed in Scotland
Yard sent the CANDY. Other theories
are that it originated with a gang OF
race track crooks upon whom the COM
missioner has been making war or
that communists are responsible.

SULTAN IS CONTRARY
Sultan Still Considers Himself Chief

AngOra.
CBy United PressO


Paris, Nov. 1.-THE near eastern
situation became deadlocked with the
Turkish nationals continuing defiance
of the allies today, according to ad-
vices here.
The Angora government rejected the
plan negotiated between Refet Pasha,
Turk commander and the allied high
commissioners to conciliate allied oc-
cupation of Constantinople and taking
over Of the civil administration by the
Kemalists, the Echo de Pals declared
it learned.
A dispatch from Constantiponle to

refusal of the sultan to obey the An
CORA government to resign. The Sui
tan still considers himself chief Of
800 900, 900 Moslems, his secretary an

to conciliate their powers so they
would function without friction.
The Angora government was said to
have taken the firm stand that the al
lied forces, including warships must
be withdrawn.
