MIDDLE WEST FEARS LOSS
OF NAVAL TRAINING SCHOOL
Station at Great Lakes Likely to
Be Permanently Closed

Great Lakes, ILL.,, March 2.-(By A.
P.)--The Middle West may lose its only
big naval establishment. the training
station here, as q result Of the successful
conclusion Of the Disarmament Confer
pnce at Washington. Wreckers have
nearly completed the destruction OF the
vast wartime camps through which nenr-
ly 100 900 embryo seamen passed during
1917 and 1918. and now, as a result
Of the contemplated reduction in naval
forces. the permanent station may be
abandoned and training concentrated on
the Atlantic and Pacific coasts.
Naval officers here expect the appro- =
pristion for the fiscal year starting July

10 guard the IS 900 900 worth of Gov
ernment property at the station. This
will require an estimated appropriation

Total abandonment OF Great Lakes Is
opposed by the officers here because the
Middle West furnishes large part oi

London. March 2.-Either an carly
general election or the resignation OF
Prime Minister Lloyd George will be the
upshot Of the present political crisis, 1t
is generally believed.
The apparently widening breach In

recent bye elections. have forced these
alternatives on the Premier.

must 60 or he would step down from
office.
Sir George Younger's tactics have met
with disfavor among considerable
section Of the party. especially with
Mr.. Chamberlain and Lor6 Chancellor
Birkenhead. the latter publicly voicing
his disapproval in recent speech. In
this connection some significance is at =
tached to report that Younger may
resign from the House and be elevated
to the peerage.
Meanwhile Government leaders arc
giving much time to the problem, and
an early meeting of the whole Con
servative Party Is expected.

been considering the case of Edward

charged with conspiring to defraud the
Government on wholesale scale by
trafficking in stolen liquor withdrawal

other guilty. The Court ruled that it
could.

izing the girl, formerly clerk In the
State Prohibition Directors Office. as
IAN unfortunate instrument and tool, y
had pointed out that the Jurors could
recommend mercy In her case.
| The defendants were alleged to have
manipulated withdrawal permits so that
as many as 1000 barrels of beer and
! 90. 900 cases Of liquor were taken each
week from Federal warehouses.
The prosecution, which termed Done
gan as the lowest type of criminal be :
cause he had dragged the girl down
with him. strove TO prove that bribes
total!ng S3l 800 had been offered Fed
eral agents to free the pair and destroy

The defense charged that Mrs. Mary

low clerks, had framed the defendants
in the hope Of escaping prosecution fol
