Milwaukee.-Four Kenosha men, con-
victed of violating the Mulberger law,
pardoned Thanksgiving Day by Cover
nor Blaine, were released from the
house of correction yesterday. The
men are: Harry Gordon, termed liking
of the bootleggers"; Ben Loef, Edward
Minkowski and julius Klous. Habeas
corpus proceedings for the release of
Gordon were dropped in circuit court
today The men had been held since
last Thursday by workhouse authori-
ties, pending outcome of controversy
over the collection Of their fines, which
had been reduced by Governor Blaine.
They were released after Inspector W.
H. Momsen received telegram from
District Attorney Frank S. Symmonds
of Kenosha, informing him that Keno
sha county would collect the fines.
Gordon had been sentenced to 10
months and fined $4,000 by Judge E. B.
Belden of Racine. The other three
were given 6 months each and fined
$4,000 each. All four had served ten
months, Loef, Minkowski and iKlous

COMMISSION PLAN
United States to be Expected to Serve
on Commission to Guard Over
the Dprdanelles.
by Associated Press Leased wire


Lausanne-The entente. plan for
keeping open the straits Of the Darda-
nelles and the Bosphorus in time Of
peace and war provides for the appoint
ment of an international commission of
control composed Of the great powers,
including the United States, as well as
Turkey and the countries bordering on
the Black Sea.
A change of front on the part Of the
Turkish delegations was forecast while
the conference was in session. A Turk
ish spokesman outside the auditorium
said the Turkish position on the straits
control would probably be found nearer
to the allied plan than to the Russian.
Lord Curzon of Great Britain in the
name Of the allies presented the details
Of this comprehensive project to the
Near East conference today.
Delegate Barrere of France said the
proposition represented an attempt to
solve the straits problem without in
fringing upon the sovereignty Of Tur-
key or that of any country bordering
upon the Black Sea.
Ambassador Child set forth the view
of the United States independence of
any other power. He said the United
States holds that the straits and the
Black Sea must be open to ships and
warships of all nations in time of peace
and war, and that it opposes any plan
which would give one power control,
just as it would in any other interna-
tional water.

HARDING OPPOSES
MADDEN AMENDMENT
President Writes Opposition to Amend
ment to Shipping Bill to
Chairman of Committee.

(By Associated Press Leased Wlre.1
Washington, D. illumination of
the Madden amendment to the ship
ping bill, giving Congress control over
the extension of government aid to
shipping companies, was urged by
President Harding in a letter written
to Chairman Jones Of the Senate COM
merce commission and read to the
committee today when it took up the
measure.
The presidents letter developed ex
tended discussion in the executive
session of the committee and so little
progress was made that some members
declared it probable that the shipping
bill, which is the first item on the
Senate legislative program for the
regular session would not be placed
before the Senate till next week.
The Madden amendment to which
the president entered a strong objec-
ton, provides specifically that extern
sion of government aid to shipping
companies shall be made only upon a
specific annual authorization from
Congress. Chairman Jones and their
leading supporters Of the bill were
understood to have argued for the
amendments elimination. Senator Nc
Nary, Republican, Oregon, led the dis
cussion on behalf of its retention.
The president said in his letter that
he dsired to urge with all earnestness
at my command" that the Madden
amendment be eliminated.

FORGET DIGNITY TO
CHEER CLEMENCEAU
Generals, Majors, Captains and All
Throw Dignity to the Winds to
Give a Tiger" for Clemenceau.
(By Associated Press Leased Wire. }

by Associated Press Leased Wire.l
Washington, d. G. = The dignity of
the United States war college was
shattered for moment today when
majors, generals, brigadiers, colonies
and officers of lesser rank gave Geor-
ges Clemenceau three cheers and a
"Tiger'.
Major General. McGlachlin, COM
mandant Of the college acted as cheer
leader, massing his rooters on the
front steps Of the college building as
the Tiger emerged after delivering a
Commute address.
Clemenceau's talk at the war col
lege was half a tribute to the work of
Americas forces in the war and half
a plea for this country's re-entry into
European affairs. He was applauded
when he said with twinkle in his
eyes that while France and England
were glad enough to see the war end,
when it did, he didn't think it would
have displeased the Americans if it
had gone a little longer"
Americas withdrawal from Europe,
he continued, gave Germany courage.
"They thought they could get the
better of u.s." he said, "and thus far
they seem to have succeeded"
He concluded with the assertion that
he was taking back to France the mes
sage that Americas heart is in the
same place" and that "some day we
will meet again"

The district attorney said the dis

good romance. 1t is great pastime
