AMBASSADOR CHILD GETS
BARTHOU'S APPEAL TO u. S.

n ENOA, May 13 (Associated Press)-France has
appealed to the United States to participate in the
proposed international commission to investigate
the Russian situation. The American Ambassador,
Richard Washburn Child informed the Associated Press
tonight that such proposal had been submitted to him
by the French delegation.
The Ambassador understood that the French pro-
posal suggests that the United States if the invitation is
accepted, would have dominant voice in the action of
the commission but would not be bound by her
ceptance to decisions of the commission which she
did not approve
If the United States accepts France would agree to
the Russians being represented in the commission.
In opposing before the subcommission the British
project of mixed commission including Russian repre-
sentatives NJ Barthou said Let speak out frankly
the whole of thoughts for the time has arrived to
speak out.
1--WE have been unanimous in our regret at the
absence of the United States If appoint such gen.
eral commission perhaps the United States would
cep invitation to participate in these negotiations.
Such outcome would leave of us Indifferent
In giving this out tonight the French delegation
said that M. Barthou had been in consultation with the
American Ambassador and had asked him to take up
the matter with the Washington Government

VIEW HIDDEN BY CURVE

Grace Cushmore, years old of
Pompton, N. J., granddaughter of an
engineer of the Erie Railroad, was
saved, in a fashion that rivalled the
movies, from death under the wheels
of train No. SIT of the Greenwood
Lake division of the Erie Railroad
yesterday afternoon at Pompton by
Engineer j. j. Cotter Of Jersey City
Grace was playing in her back yard
and went over the fence on the tracks
and althougE railroading is in the
family and she knew practically al
of the daytime trains, she forgot all
about No. 517.
About the time she was getting
free of the wire fence and started
on her hands and knees to crawl up
the embanlkment TO the SHINING rails
the train, a mile away, with seven
or eight coaches heavily loaded, was
sweeping down from the Jersey lake
region on the way to Jersey City.
Grace took her seat on the rail- There
is curve at that point which obscured
the view.
Engineer Cotter saw Grace summing
herself on the rail just as the train
rounded the bend The wind was blow
ing toward the engine, and the sound
OF the train did not appear to reach the
child. She did not move.
Passengers in the coaches as the
train took the curve felt the train
suddenly jar as brakes were thrown
hard down. The coaches shivered under
the strain. The passengers looked out
the windows and saw Engineer CotteI
crawl out of the cab. along the running
board midway along the locomotives
flank, and reach the pilot, where he
stood and bent over.
Grace had risen from the rail and
stepped part way off the track bed. but
was beside the rail. She stood fright
ened and crying. Engineer Cotter, with
one hand gripped to the pilot iron
swung far over and at the precise mo-
ment necessary to save Grace's life
caught her about the waist and lifted
her clear He gripped her tight to him
until the fireman stopped the train
THEN he backed up the train and took
Grace home. The engineer turned in a
report on the rescue which was excep-
tional for its lack of detail.
At the chid's home her father. r. f.
G. Cushmore, was inclined to be severe
with Grace. as she shouldn't have gone
through the fence and knew she
shouldn't. but Grandfather Ira Mead
veteran railroad man. was glad that
Grace was saved and that the traditions
of the service had been upheld

cial counsel and investigators in the
prosecution OF war contract frauds.

may be paid in excess of that amount.
In reporting the bill the committee
stated that the amounts involved in
the cases to be tried range from few
hundred thousand dollars in single
case to several millions. The total in
volved is s192 ,000.0 In the War De-
partment, however, there arc $4,000

TAX LEVY, STATE
AND COUNTY,
IS $3.50
Board of Commissioners Meets
and Goes over
Estimates

Total tax levy for 1922 for state and
county purposes in Idaho county is
$1.S9 on each 800 of assessed valua
ton. Board of county commissioners
in session Monday, fixed the LEVY fol
all county purposes at $1.33, slight
increase over last year. Levy for
state purposes is So cents.
Increase in the levy for county pur-
poses, it was pointed out, was neees-
sary because of the fact that taxes in
the amount of approximately $4,000
are delinquent, while assessed valua-
ton in the county has decreased
about 100000 from last year. Drop
in assessed valuation is due to fall
ing off in livestock in the county, as
shown by the assessment rolls. The
county board also must provide mon
ey this year to meet cost of the cleo
ton. There was no election in 1921.
Estimates show; Current expense
500, 3s6.56; county road, $10,371; coun-
tv bridge, 1865; county school 1884,
600 The state requires from the eoun-
ty this year $79, 443.46.

place the officers were notified.
