.SOY|ETS MAY ACCEPT
TERMS Of ALLIES
IF FULL RECOGNITION GRANTED
AT SAME TIME-PLANNED TO
DIVIDE BAKU OIL FIELDS IN
TO FIVE ZONES, ONE FOR So
VETS AND FOR 4 POWERS.

Genoa, May 4.-The Soviet repre-
sentatives here announced today that
the terms of the allied note to Rus
s:a had been telegraphed to Moscow
says the Exchange Telegraph, which
adds cit is stated that possibly Pre-
mier Lenine will accept, demanding
simultaneously full recognition"
The Soviet delegates said the fin
ancial help offered by the allied
memorandum was disappointed and
inadequate.
They admitted, says the Exchange
Telegraph correspondent, that they
were considering various offers for
oil concessions, which they said con-
stituted for Russia a basis of future
international policy, and they were
studying a plan to divide the Baku
and Gronzy fields into four or five
zones, one of which the Sovlets
would operate, granting concessions
on the others to rival national groups
such as the American, British, Bel
gian and French. This, however, the
Soviet delegates said, would be con-
ditional upon de jure recognition and
adequate financial help.
Genoa, May 4.-France's decision
to support the opposition of Belgium
to the private property clause of the
memorandum sent the Russians was
announced today by the French dele
CATION here on receipt of official in
formation from Paris. It was added
that Vice Premier Barthou, head OF
the. delegation, would hasten his re-
turn to Genoa, arriving here Satur-
day.

METHOD|STS WILL
DISCUSS UNION.
AT THE 18TH GENERAL CONFER
ENCE IN SESSION AT HOT
SPRINGS-ANOTHER IMPORT.
ANT QUESTION TENURE OF
BISHOPS IN OFFICE.

Hot Springs, Ark, May "A,
mong the many important objects Of
legislation before the nineteenth gen
eral conference of the Methodist
Episcopal Church, South, which con-
vened here yesterday for a three
weeks session, will be that of unifica-
ton OF the Northern and Southern
bodies of Methodism.
During the past quadrennium
joint committee composed of repre-
sentatives of the two branches work
ed out a plan for the purpose of
bringing the two bodies into one ec-
clesiastical organization. The unifca-
ton committee in it's report to the
Southern conference will recommend
that the negotiations be- continued.
Another important question to
come before the conference is that
concerning the movement to limit the
tenure of the bishops Office. Bishops
are now elected for life, but there is
a widespread movement throughout
the church in favor of electing them
for four year term, subject to re-
election. There also will be an effort
to drop the word "South" from the
name of the church, and to change
the phrase "Holy Catholic Church,
in the creed to "the Church of Cod"
the latter was authorized by the last
general conference but the change
did not secure the required two-thirds
majority of the annual. conferences.
The election of new bishops is one
of the outstanding topics under dis
cussion as the general conference
convenes. Bishop Hendrix and Kilgo,
it is said, will go ON the super an
nuated list. Bishops Lambuth, Hoss
and Morrison died during the past
quadrennium. The college Of bishops
will recommend the election Of three
new superintendents. There are
many among the delegates that favor
the election of six and there is q
sentiment in favor of the election Of
a number Of missionary bishops to
superintend the work Of foreign mis-
sionaries. ~.

DURING TWO DAYS FIGHT.
ING AROUND KILKENNY.
10s PRISONERS ARE TAKEN.
PROVISIONS OF TRUCE.

Dublin, May A truce between
the rival Irish republican army
forces has been declared, it was
announced this afternoon. The truce
is operative from a o'clock this af-
ternoon until 4 p. m. Monday, with
a view to giving both sections of the
army an immediate opportunity to
discuss unifcatioh.
The provisions OF the truce are:
Clause ALI operations except
training and ordinary army routine
will cease.
Clause Both sections will CO.
operate to maintain order and to
cease fighting.
The peace committee appointed
by the Dali Eireann yesterday met
at the Mansion house this morning.
Meetings also were held by the
stats of the Beggard's Bush head
quarters of the regular and Four
Courts headquarters of the dissi-
dent republican army factions. As
the meetings began the expectation
was expressed that hostilities would
be extended until the Dali had an
opportunity to consider the new sit
uation.
Some difficulty in calling off ope-
rations was said to have arisen be-
cause the official troops have been
engaged in the pursuit Of offenders
charged with murder, including the
authors of the death Of General
Adamson at Athlone but it was
contended the truce must cover all
boundaries. ..

DEFEAT OF NEW
SHARP SURPRISE
ELECTION RETURNS INSPIRE
DEMOCRATS VICTORY OF
BEVERlDGE BLOW AT AD-
MlNIsTRAIIloN FORCES IN
WASHINGTON

Washington, May 4.-The defeat
of Senator Harry S. New by Albert
]. Beveridge in the race for the
senatorial nomination in Indiana
constitutes the most startling and
significant political development
since the election of President
Harding.
This is the opinion OF Senator Pat
Harrison of Mississippi, one of the
most sastute political observers in
Washington.
Senator New was chairman OF
the speakers bureau of the Repub-
lican party in the presidential cam
paign," he continued. Senator
New was one of the presidents S
closest friends and advisers. He
was one of presidents spokesmen
On the floor of the senate. In his
race against Beveridge, he had the
support Of the powerful Republican
machine, for the president and his
administration constitute the issue.
"That he is defeated for the
nomination or even were he to Sc
cure the nomination by Craze, the
event could not fail to impress the
Republican people. Senator New IN
a personal way was exceedingly
popular but that popularity uphol-
stored by the Republican national
machine was not able to withstand
the effect of the record Of the ad-
minissation.
"Tae defeat will stimulate Demo
Gratis all over the United States for
it indicates the trend of the time
and opinion Of the people every
where. The Republican party is shot
to pieces. Say boo in the capital,
and Republican representatives and
senators will stampede"
In Indiana, Senator Harrison
added, the defeat Of New might re-
dound to the advantage Of the Re-
publican party for Democrats in the
general election can not bring
against Beveridge charges Of reac7
tionaries and Newberryism, he ex-
planned.
But at that" he concluded, 1--WE
might beat Beveridge, for it looks
very much like Democratic year
everywhere"

DAIRY MEETING
Will Be Held Saturday Afternoon at
O'clock in Court House


O'clock in Court House
The people of the county are
urged not to forget the meeting to
be held in the court house Saturday
afternoon at 2 o'clock to consider
plans for establishing a creamery
at Abbeville. It is hoped sufficient
number of people will be interested
to get this new enterprise in town
1t is one of the best ways for the
farmer to get ready money to run
him until the present crops are
made.
Creameries have been established
in nearly every county in the State
and have proved very successful
and as soon as the people realize
that a dairy and feed growing com
munity is always prosperous and
cotton growing section poor, the
better off they will be.
Keep the hour of the meeting in
mind and be on hand.

MACHINE GUNS USED
. IN CHINESE: BATTLES
OPPOSING FORCES SAID TO
HAVE EXHAUSTED STORES OF
AMMUNITION FOR BIG GUNS
ACCOUNTING FOR HALT IN
HEAVY CANNONADING

feklnS, may 4.-Gen. WI rel Z u
was reported this evening to have ar
rived near Machang, on the railroad
south of Tientsin, to take personal
command of the operations against
the troops Of Chang Tsao-lin on that
section of the battle front. Late re-
ports are to the effect that Chang
Tsao-lin is heavily reinforcing his
troops in that region with men of all
arms and the indications are that
Machang will be the center of in
tense fighting. Artillery duels already
have commenced over a wide front.
General Wu,. if he actually takes
command there, will have facing him
the 25 year old son of Chang Tsao-
lin.
Foreign military observers with
the Chi Ii forces report that WI Pei
Flu recently has been directing the
operations at Changsintien in an en-
deavor to get good results out of
General Tso Kun's poor troops, pend
ing the arrival of Gen. Fen Yut
Siang's forces, which began to reach
Paoting Flu on the railway south of
Peking Tuesday. The reports are to
the effect that WI Pei Fu's own
troops have not participated in the
fighting at Changsintien.
The heavy bombardment that has
been in progress at various points has
depleted the stores of big ammuni-
ton and the fighting is now mainly
with machine guns and rifles. At
some places there has been lull in
the battle.
On the middle of the front the
troops of Chang Tsao-lin have re-
captured Kuan. Wounded from that
region say the fighting was heavy
during the past few days, often at
close quarters. The tide of battle
was continually changing until the
arrival of Changs reinforcement
turned the scale.
A dispatch received here from Tien
tsin says reinforcements for Chang's
army near Machang detrained mid
way between Peking and Machang
and marched southwark toward the
Hun river, where fighting took place
on the western bank of the stream.
The cabinet here announces that it
has received a message from the gov
ernor of Shantung, saying that 2O,-
900 Manchurian soldiers had landed
in Shantung, having been transported
from Manchuria by sea.
Trains of camels were seen carry
ing munitions across the river. Evi-
dence observed of the five days OF
fighting were the carrying off the
| field of wounded and the burying OF
the dead.

LABOR MUST MAKE FIGHT

New York, May 4.-Samuel
Gompers, president of the American

night to a crowd that jammed Madl-

ing called by the New York branch
Of the association against the pro-

He was cheered by crowds both
inside and outside the big pavilion,

through voice amplifers. The meet
ing was largely attended by mem
bers of union labor, representatives
of more than 80 labor organizations
being present. There also were
many men prominent in the city's
business and financial circles, who
occupied places on the stage. A

wines and against any attempt to
enforce sumptuary laws aimed at
the personal liberties Of our people.
"I have always had faith IN the
future of my country but with pro-
hibition / am apprehensive Of the
future. Temperance was the rule OF
the great mass Of organized labor
but the prohibitionists and the So
called Anti-Saloon leasuers have
done more to undermine the morali-
ty and temperance of the working
man than any other agency know.
"I have travelled all over the
United States before prohibition in
cluded its socalled dry territories
and today as I pass through these
sections I have found more drunken
ness than ever before"
sSThere are no stronger or more
powerful supporters of the Volstead
act than the distiflers and bootleg
gers" Mr.. Gompers declared, to the
accompaniment Of vociferous ap-
plause. @With the Volstead act and
prohibition replaced by light wine
and beer bill, the bootleggers would

Mr.. Gompers declared that there

Guardsman's Oath Makes Him Ineligible Membership

Governor Allen and Chares I. Mar
tin, adjutant general, will go thoroly

belong to the Kansas National Guard.
Their oath of office ana the obliga-
ton of their enlistment would make
them ineligible for membership in the
Ku Klux Klan or in any other organ
ization which is not wholly loyal and
obedient to established government.
1.-The obligation of a member of the
national guard in this respect is even
more stringent than that which rests
upon a member of a police force. 1t
is utterly absurd to presume that any
man with such loyalty to government
as must be in his heart when he vol
unteers for the national guard should
have any taste for any organization
whose sole purpose appears to be to
supersede the fundamental law of the
country and set itself above estab-
lished government.
while it is incredible to suppose
that any officers or men of the ma
tional guard have joined the Ku Klux
Klan in this state, yet if such should
be found to be the case such mem
bers will be dealt with under the mill
itary law which governs their rela-
tionship to the national guard
