Washington, Jan. 4.-The empha-
sis has turned again from interna
tional to national Questions-or
rather from external to internal
matters.
President Harding has started
the New Year with his mind fixed
on Strengthening out as far as pos
sible the economic situation which
confronts his administration in the
hope that next future meeting will
provide some cure which will help
the Republicans retain control of
congress in the fall elections. Al
though the cabinet spent the
greater part of Tuesdays session
discussing the part America should
play in the world economic con-
ference being talked about in
Europe, the policy in the minds Of
all no matter how divergent the
suggestions may be was that the
United States should not assume
the leadership or take the initia-
tive but should examine carefully
any proposals made to her by for
eign countries. Meanwhile the
calling of an agricultural confer
ence by Secretary Wallace, the con-
sideration of new tariff act which
shall give the president plenty of
tdiscretion to fix rates as conditions
change, pressure to get power from
congress to arrange for a refund
ing of the allied war debt, and the
unique situation which has arisen
through the death of Senator Pen
rose have brought about a general
situation which for the moment
overshadows the arms conference
Mr. Harding, whose hopes were
high at the outset because he be-
| lieved other nations were as disin-
| terested as America, because he
| thought other peoples were as zeal
Gus about world peace as are
Americans, now comes reluctantly
to the place where Germany and
other obStructionists have arisen il
world affairs and feels that the
arms conference has done well to
achieve what it has. He refuses
! to look upon the conference as a
failure though his disappointment
over the French refusal to permit
an agreement on submarines is un-
disguised and pointed. France for
long time to come will feel the
affects of her attitude at the Wash
| ington conference.
Western Sun Rises.
Within two or three weeks the
conference will have passed into
history. In keeping with his pol
icy from the beginning, Mr.. Hard
ing has let Secretary Hughes
| wrestle with the international
question and now is concentrating
more than ever on the situation in

Army Embalmer Gives
Gruesome Testimony
in Watson Probe.

Washington, Jan. 4.-Rufus P.
Hubbard, of New York, employed by
the American graves registration
service in preparing bodies of
American soldiers for shipment
from France, told senate commit
tee today that on three bodies dis
inferred he found a rope around the
neck OF each and black cap over
each face.
Called as the first witness at the
resumption of the hearings of the
committee investigating charges by
Senator Watson, Democrat, of
Georgia. that American soldiers
were hanged without trial in
was nothing in the coffins by which
the bodies could be identified.
The bodies were identified by
the cross on the outside of the cof-
fin, and the black caps were not
shipped to the United States for
burial" Hubbard testified.
Denies Killing Soldiers.
Major Hierame Opie of StauntoD,
Iowa, commander of the Third bat
TALON, 116th infantry, accused by
Henry L. Scott of Kenmore, Ohio,
of having shot and killed two SOL
diers in France, was on hand with
counsel to enter formal denial of
the charge. Because some of the
witnesses were anxious to testify
and return home there was no early
reference to the Opie case.
Describing his work in the field
as an assistant embalmer, Hubbard
went into great detail while Chair
man Brandegee was trying to find
out what he knew about charges of
illegal hangings.
You've written a long letter,
now tell us in your own way, what
you know about the hanging
charges" Chairman Brandegee in
si~ted
While at a cemetery in France,
helping to get the bodies ready for
shipment home" the witness said,
Il saw three bodies brought up
with the rope and black cap just
as they were when the men were
hanged l think two were negroes
and one a white man. l think it
was disgrace to the army that the
bodies went to the parents without
the black caps being removed"
The witness gave the names of
several persons who were present
at the cemetery with him.
"TOO Much Hurry,
There was too much hurry in
| the registration service" he con-
| tinued, and many sad mistakes in
| identification were made"
Were there no tags on the
bodies of the three Soldiers?' Sen
ator Overman, Democrat, North
Carolina, asked.
Il did not see one," Hubbard re-
piled.
Were bodies that were not pro-
perly identified shipped home as
| identified?'' Senator Brandegee
asked.
They were," Hubbard replied.
| Many women in the crowded
| room who lost sons overseas lean
ed forward and listened closely to
| Hubbard's long recital of care
! lessness," some with tears in their
eyes.
| Have you any evidence that men
were hanged without trial?"
I w, SI
Know anything of your own
| knowledge of cruelty?"
| Yes"
1t developed that what he want
ed to tell was hearsay.
Strike it out" the chairman
said.
Examined by Colonel Walter A.
Bethel, acting judge-advocate gen
eral of the army, Hubbard said sew
eral hundred bodies were taken up
at the French cemetery where he
found three with ropes around
| their neckS.
Didn't Report Case.
"The three bodies were taken up
in different parts of the cemetery
on the same day" he said. The

Ewing London, sheriff of Carter
county, and candidate for reelection,
stood before crowd of 500 Of his

BY COW IMPROVING

Paul Ekern, Jr., who recently re-
ceived some very painful wounds when
hooked by a COW. is improving rapidly.
The young fellow who is the two
year old son of Mr.. and Mrs. Paul
Ekern had narrow escape from death
when the pet milch COW tossed him
up in the air, her horn piercing his
right jaw, just barely missing the
jugular vein. All OF the family were
standing within four feet of the young
ster when the COW, evidently fighting
flies, struck the child. He was thrown
several feet, turned compile of somer'
saults and was caught by his father,
thus avoiding more bruises. The horn
of the COW penetrated as deep as a
quarter of an inch.
