MARSH GAS DAMAGES
NEW REHLECT|NG POOL
Methane, From Organic Matter in
Made Ground, Discovered
by Scientists.

Marsh gas. technically known as
methane. combined with carbon di-
oxide, has caused certain failures in
the concrete floor Of the rejecting
pool in front Of the beautiful Lincoln
Memorial. it was revealed today by
the bureau Of standards.
These failures were discovered a
short time ago by the officials of the
Corps of Engineers and others con-
cerned in the construction of the
pool when large bubbles were no.
ticed disturbing the surface Of the
water. For days they tried vainly to
mitted the mystifying problem to the
scientists at the bureau of standards.
The scientists subsequently made
a comprehensive study Of the prob
lem. During their Investigation they
observed large bubbles Of a powerful
gas coming through the floor of the
pool from the ground beneath. An
analysis of the gas showed that 1t
consisted of methane and carbon
dioxide, unquestionably a product of
the decomposed organic matter
buried in the made ground around
the Lincoln Memorial.
As no means could be suggested
for preventing the formation of gas,
the best solution offered to the En-
gineer Corps was that means be pro-
vided for venting 1t at certain
point without any accompanying
damage. This probably win be done.

LONDON. November 1.-THE situa-

Turkish nationalists want the allies
70 get out and the allies are deter
mined to sit tight, is still very CRITICAL
all the morning papers agree pu'
none Of them furnishes any dennite
news to justify its view.
Even the government itself is de-
clared in some quarters to be largely
in the dark. owing to the difficulty OF
communicating with the near east as
a result of the cutting of the cable
line near Chanak by the Turks. Even
this fact is regarded as ominous
New Developments in Dark.
Absolutely nothing can be learned
regarding the present attitude OF the
Angora government, and 1t is equally
unknown whether the allied commits
sioners have carried out their threat
TO establish martial law in Constanti-
nople.
The departure for Lausanne OF the
Turkish nationalist foreign minister,
Ismet Pasha, has attracted great
deal of attention here, and In some
quarters his unexpected start OF the
Journey, without awaiting Angora
reply to the latest allied note, Is re-
garded with suspicion.
Policy In Doubt.
The diplomatic expert OF the Daily
Telegraph presumes that "Ismet Will
not endeavor to emulate at Adriano-
10 "a N
but it will be interesting to see
whether he will endeavor to confer
with the Bulgarian government on
the way to Lausanne"
Delay in settling the troubles In the
near east and in definitely fixing a
date for the Lausanne discussions has
caused serious anxiety here. Some
quarters have an uneasy feeling re-
garding the Franco-British relations.
The Times says these relations are
being severely tested. Editorially 1t
makes very emphatic appeal for
Premier Poincare to make Frances
position clear, declaring that condl-
tions do not yet exist which would
justify British representatives. In at
tending the Lausanne conference.
"PerilOu0 a. War;
The British government knows that
the near eastern position today Is as
perilous as war" the Times declares.
Even in the terms Of the Mudania
armistice. which brought the conflict
between the entente and Turkey to
an end. 1t Is not known whether
France Is prepared to stand with
Britain, and, in case of need, act with
her. French failure to stand
by England In word and deed at Con-
stantinople might be the signal for
a disaster of immeasurable dimen-
sions. There may yet be time to
avert it, but the sands are running
out. Swift and complete accord be-
tween London and Paris alone can
preclude it, or, should the worst be-
fall. keep 1t within manageable
limits"

Puppy Loue'Cure

CHICAGO, November 11.-Par-
ents Of young boys and girls who
participate in puppy love" es-
capades should be punctually
spanked along with their erring
offspring, according to Judge
Lawrence Jacobs, OF the Chicago

Passing on the case of two
youthful lovers. Judge Jacobs
said:
What these children need is
good. old fashioned spanking.
Furthermore. in nearly every case
You will find paternal indulgence.
1t wouldn't be a bad idea to hand
out a little of the same corrective
to the parents.
1.-The baby love germ seems to
be highly infective, but in most
cases / believe that marriage ex-
cuse Is simply to cover up indis-
cretions. / think If we had a few
public spankings of children and
their parents the fashion would

CONSTANTINOPLE, November 10.
via Cairo, Egypt, November 1.-THE
situation in Constantinople continues
extremely critical. The nationalists
proved crafty diplomats, and, immedi-
ately after going through the form Of
deposing the sultan. began taking
over the administration of the city
and the control of the customs. The
police. hitherto under the control Of
the allied authorities. ceased to obey
orders. declaring that they would ac-
cept instructions only from Angora.
Rafet Pasha made his headquarters
at the sublime porte and assumed an
attitude of complete independence,
saying that the allied troops may re-
main here, but they have no right to
take part in the administration of the
according to the laws of the nation
alist assembly"
The capitulations, so far as they
mean protection OF foreigners. have
been virtually abolished. Prohibition
is to be enforced strictly. The ten
sion is great and unless the Turks
adopt a different attitude and cease
to infringe upon the Mudania conven-
tion the allies will take measures to
enforce their rights. The exodus of
Greeks and Armenians continues.
