New Brunswick. N. j., Sept. IS
(By A. P.)-Unsuccessful search
among many clues and conflicting
details was made today by the de-
tective STATS of two counties. the
local police and seven state police to
establish definitely the scene Of the
shooting last Thursday nisht Of the
Rev. Edward Hall, late rector of the
Protestant Episcopal church Of St.
John the Evangelist, and Mrs. James
Mills, wife of the sexton, and a choir
leader in the church.
The bodies of the two, bearing
bullet wounds, were found side by
side on Saturday in an old orchard in
Somerset county. Authorities OF
Somerset, since the discovery Of the
crime, have expressed the belief that
the two had been shot elsewhere and
the bodies brought to the orchard
and laid out under the apple tree in
an effort to draw closer the veil Of
mystery which is over the shooting.
The discovery today, however, Of
four witnesses who live in the vi
entity of the field,' who reported
hearing screams and gunshots on
Thursday night, has strengthened the
belief that the two shootings occur
red in the rustic setting where the
bodies were found.

LOOK FOR HARDING
veto 5o2l! &[ i SG[2 Pas.y

Washington. Sept. 1S-Veto Of the
soldiers bonus bill by President
Harding was expected generally to-
night by Congressional leaders and
administration officers. Some Of Mr..
Harding's advisers said his message
practically had been completed and
they looked for him to send 1t to the
House tomorrow after discussing it
with his cabinet.
Leaders in Congress We're laying
their plans with veto in mind. In
the House it was the intention to de-
fer action until Wednesday so as to
keep a working quorum on hand for
disposition tomorrow Of important
ures.
A Senate vote might be deferred
until Thursday, depending largely
upon the hour of the House vote.
Meantime, however, both opponents
and proponents were marshalling
their forces with indications that the
roll call would show the largest at
tendance Of senators in months.
Apparently convinced that the
House would vote by large majority
to override veto, Senate foes Of the
bonus redoubled their efforts today
to obtain a safe margin there. They
claimed "a senators as certain with
the probability that by the time a
vote came this number would be in
creased to SO, or four more than the
one third necessary to sustain veto.

bigger issues that Turkey are at
stake, that the whole peade of the
Balkans. future relations of Russia
and the entire Near East are involv-
ed, that If Great Britain can risk
disturbing her Mohammedan con-
nections by forcing the Turks to ac-
cept an European settlement of tt e
straits, then France can afford to
yield and cooperate with the British
in the Turkish peace.
With France convinced. it Is be-
lieved the Balkan states will fall into
line; then an undivided front can
be presented to the Turks and any
solution regarding the straits be i'm
posed. With respect to Soviet Rus
sia's attitude of sympathy with the
Turks. it is believed that can be
overcome. From facts lately pre-
sented at London it is known that
the soviet's attitude is partly due to
Allied control of her travellers and
freight, exercised in the past year at
Constantinople, where Soviet officials
have been arrested and detained and
their shipments made to pay heavy
demurrage charges. These annoy
ances will cease, it is argued, when
a Turkish peace is arranged.
On the other hand. it is believed
the Turks is supporting them as
matter of temporary convenience;
whatever military supplies Russia
has sent the Turks have been fully
paid for either in cash or food.
Behind the general policy of the
British cabinet is said to be the old
Gladstonian dictum that the Turks
should get out of Europe bag and
baggage" which has long found GER
tain religious support among the
British people who resent the Turk
ish attitude toward Christians. 1t is
contended by those who feel that
force should be employed against
Turks. that it was because of lack
of a proper show of force that the
Turkish situation got out of hand at
the close of the war and through
British troops being employed in
South Russia and Mespotamia. and
that it is time to reassert the fact
that the Allies won the war and Tur-
key lost it.

French Cabinet
to Talk Over Views
France and Britain

Paris, Sept 1S-(By A. PA
meeting of the French cabinet has
been hurriedly called for tomorrow
morning at Elysee Palace. to consid-
err certain divergent views which ex-
list between Great Britain and France
over the question of the straits. The
meeting was originally set for Thurs
day, but the date was changed to-
night so that the ministers, under
the presidency of M. Millerand,
could give immediate consideration
to the British plans for the defense
of the zone of the Dardanelles as
outlined in the official British noe
issued Saturday.
It is believed that the French gov
eminent is opposed to military ac-
ton against the Turks in the event
the Turks attempt to cross the
straits, and it is considered quite
improbable that France will ser-d
troops.
Well-informed quarters say that
Great Britain has either informed
France or is about to inform her,
that it is the intention of the British
empire to defend the straits against
possible Turkish occupation with the
full strength of the British military
and naval forces.
1t is further regarded as probable
that Great Britain has asked France
to participate in this military move
by sending additional troops. 1t ;
for this reason that the cabinet
meeting has been so hurriedly called.
Premier Poincare's policy in the
present crisis is frankly described in
official circles as pacific" and ne
desires a settlement along peaceable
lines.
The role Of arbiter is said to APP
peal strongly to M. Poincare in the
present situation. and many obser-
vers feel that he therefore will not
accept the British policy as outlined
in the British announcement.
The French view is that military
action can only serve further TO ar
ouse the Turks and that the best
way would be to call an immediate
conference to settle the problem ar
ound the table. Unoff1cial repo'ts
reached Paris tonight that Lord cur
ION. British secretary for foreign al
fairs. is coming here to confer with
M. Poincare, but the foreign office
could not confirm this.

Portland Ne. Sept. 1s.-"We are

the IFS Bowdoin graduates from all
over New England who gathered here
tonight at a dinner by the Portland
Bowdoin Club in honor Of the explorer.
"There is something about the Arc
tic that can't be resisted" he contin-
ued. Although when We were up
there we were thinking Of home and
longing to see the home people, yet
now that we are back we are dreaming
of those clear blue skies and longing
to go back-and we are going back.

Washington, Sept. 1S.-Final legis-
lative action on the administration
tariff bill at four p. NJ. tomorrow was
agreed upon late today by the Sen
ate. At that home the vote will be
upon adoption of the conference re-
port with no doubt of favorable &C.
ton.
After the Senate vote the measure
will be made ready for President
Harding and will become a law on
the following his approval of it.
In the four hours debate that is to
proceed the final vote, Democratic OPP
ponents plan to continue their final
fight on the bill, which was opened
today by Senator Simmons, of North
Carolina, minority leader in the tariff
fight. Speaking for more than three
hours, he assailed the bill as one that
would increase living costs by bill
lions of dollars a year and would re-
suit in the formation of hundreds of
thousands of trusts and combinations
in restraint of trade.
The attack on the measure was not
confined today to the Democratic
side, Senator Cameron, Republican,
New Mexico, denouncing the action of
the Senate conferees in yielding to
the House managers on the Senate
proposal to impose a tariff of seven
cents a pound on long staple cotton.
He indicated that he would vote
against the conference report.
Efforts of the Democrats to get the
bill back to conference to limit the
authority of the president in the mat
ter of proclaiming American valua-
ton failed, Senator Cummins, Repub-
lican, Iowa, president pro tempore,
over-ruling a point of order that the
conferees had exceeded their author
ity in broadening the powers of the
president so as to permit of Ameri-
can valuation on other than coal tar
products.
An appeal was taken from Senator
CumminS' ruling, but the chair was
sustained on a vote of 43 to- 81.
While the Senate was arguing the
tariff bill, the House ways and means
committee began consideration of a
resolution for continuation for ninety
days of the dye embargo licensing
system act. which would be repealed
by the tariff bill. Final decision went
over until tomorrow. The resolution

BRITAIN SEEKS APPROVAL OF
FRANCE IN SUPPORT POLICY TO
Be FOIL Owed IN THE near EAST

London, Sept. 1S-(By A. PD-
The declaration that Great Britain
does not intend to engage in any
new war. obtained from an authorit-
alive source today. coupled with
other statements OF a modified poll
~, is taken to mean that the series
Of cabinet meetings and ministerial
conferences in the past few days has
been partly in preparation for posi-
bic attacks on the British forces by
the kcmalists and party as political
preparation for the contemplated
general conference for the settle
mcnt OF the Turkish question.
While II is not seriously expected
in military quarters that Mustapha
kemal. head of the Turkish Natio>-
alists, will make an attempt either
10 capture Constantinople, or cross
the straits. the British wish to be
ready in case OF emergency and not
sacrifice the meagre contingent of
troops long stationed in Constantine
