SHIPS WITHIN DRY LAW
ALL VESSELS ARE PROHIBITED
 FROM HAVING LIQUOR
RULING OF DEPARTMENT OF JUS. TlCE FORBIDS SALE OF
 WHISKY.

WaShingto1.-All vessels. American and foreign-owned, are prohibited from having liquor tn board in American territorial waters under an interpreta- tiOn of the prohibition amendment and the enforcement act handed down by the Department of Justice Moreover, the transportation or sale of intOxi- cantS on American craft, wherever op- erated, was held to be inhibited.
 American territorial waters were construed to include those not only withing the three-nlile limit of conti- mental United States. but ulsO those within the same limit of the Philip pines, the Hawaiian islands, Porto Rico, tine Virgin islands and Alaska 1 The law would not apply in the Pan anna canal zone, as that zone is speci- fically exempted by the statute itself
 So far as American ships are con- cerned. the sale or transportation of liquor will cease at once or as soon as those vessels reach their home ports In the case of foreign ships, the deci- sion will become operative as soon as the necessary regulations can be pre- pared and promulgated by the Treas ury Department.
 Chairman Lasker was of the opin- ion that the first move of foreign lines would be to seek an injunction re- Stricting the government from enfOrc- ing the law. He said it was reason ~,,f. I grant such an injunction with a re- suit that foreign ships would continue to arrive with liquor on board until there was final decision by the high est court. The attorney general said his department would cooperate in every effort to expedite ruling by the Supreme Court.
 Publication of the opinion of the De- partment of Justice followed d White House conference. to which President Harding summoned Mir Daugherty, Secretaries Hughes and Mellon and Chairman Lasker. Various phases of the situation were discussed, includ- ing the possible results of enforce ment upon the international relations of the United States.
 High administration officials ex- plained that there was no course for the executive. branch of the govern ment except to enforce the law as in- terpreted by the legal department.
 Chairman Lasker predicted that en- forcement of the law would operate to an immediate disadvantage of the American merchant marine and would make more necessary enactment of the ship subsidy bill if the American flag was to stay on the high seas.

Mudania.-The armistice convention resentatives of all the powers con cerned affixed their signatures to the revised protocol, which General Har- ington had presented for acceptance to ISmet Pasha and which the Nation alist delegate forwarded to the Angora government for it's decision.
 The Turkish delegates were some what dismayed and disappointed over the turn of events in the past few days. The attitude taken by France after the Paris conference puzzled them and they were amazed that French friendship, on which they counted as a main prop in their nego- tiations, did not yield the results they expected.
 At the session of the conference Is- met Pasha expressed dissatisfaction at the terms the allies offered. He said to General Harrington:
 But your new armistice convention is in contradiction to the assurances given to me by General Charpy. The convention, instead of paving the way for peace, only makes matters worse" '"
 General Harrington replied merely:
 General Charpy has assented to the terms"
 After the close of the formal pro- ceedings, lsmet, in the course of a conversation on the recurring subject of Frances promises, said: Tt was upon Frances suggestion that our army ceased operations against the Greeks, France promising us favorable armistice terms. Frances responsibil- ity, therefore. is considerable
 If no agreement is reached our army will insist on marching into Thrace, but every days delay-caused by our reliance on favorable armistice promises -dimnishes our military ad- vantage"
 The protocol gives no time limit for withdrawal of the Turkish forces from the neutral zones; it simply specifics with all possible speed But if they sign the protocol, the Turks undertake to respect the neutral zones until all lied occupation ceases. There is still no word that the Turkish forces in these zones have attempted to execute the orders of withdrawal, said to have been given by Mustapha Renal.
 Should the Turks sign the protocol, there will still remain the difficult question of the peace conference and particularly the question of whether the Russian and Black sea states shall participate in il.
 LOndon-After numerous delays and interruptions, the work of the Muda- nia conference reached q concluding point with the presentation to Ismet Pasha, the Nationalist representative, for acceptance If the protocol agreed to by all the allies. which. as Iicuten- ant General Harrington described it,

Some Time


Some time when all life's lessons
have been learned,
And sun and stars forever more have
set,
The things which our weak Judge.
ment here has spurned,
The things DER which we grieve
with lashes wet,
Will flash before US out of lfe's dark
AS stars shine most in deepest tints
of blue,
And we shall see how all Gods plans
were right,
And how what seemed reproof was
love most true.
And if, some time, commingled with
life's wine
We find the wormwood, and rebel
and shrink,
Be sure a wiser hand than yours or
mine
Pours out the portion for our lips
to drink;
And if some friend we love is ly-
ing low
Where human kisses cannot reach
his face,
Oh, do not blame the loving Father
so,
But bear your sorrow with obedient
grace.
And you shall shortly know that
heightened breath
Is not the sweetest gift God sends
His friends,
And that sometimes the sable pail
Of death
Conceals the fairest boon His love
can send.
If we could push ajar the gates of
life
And stand within, and all Gods
working see,
We could interpret all this doubt
and strife,
And for each mystery could find a
key.
But not today. Then be content,
poor heart,
Gods plans, like lilies, pure and
white, unfold;
We must not tear the close shut
leaves apart;
Time will reveal the calyxes of gold.
And if, though patient toll, we
reach the land
Where tired feet, with sandals loose
may rest,
When we shall clearly know and un-
derstand,
/ think that we shall say that "God
Knew best.

TO come no one but the three must
know Of the marriage.
Pollyop had learned great many
things in two years What girl does
not after she's passed her fifteenth
birthday? One of the things she had
found out was that Oscar was dread
full person, more dreadful than most
of the squatter men. or course the
men folks Of her people did beat their
women, now and then. That was their
right without any question. The blood
colored even her ears as she remem-
bered how Oscar hectOred his wife for
the money IL was so hard for Evelyn
TO get Another thing she had come
TO understand was that, If Oscar had
not been afraid OF the powerful Rob
ertson family, he would have forced
Evelyn into his home long before this.
Ii had been a hard two years task TO
keep him quiet.
"Mebbe you are gettin' sick, Oscar"
she nterposed 81 don't know
mebbe; but you know what that old
Miss Robertson would do to you an
her girl If you told. You'd get Eve,
mebbe, but you sure wouldn't get any
more money"
The mans face darkened.
That's just the rub" he conceded,
but at that Eve amt playing square
with me. The Robertsons have money
TO burn. and she deals IL out to me In
small little dollars. / tell you I'm sick
Of the whole thing"
Polly noted the glitter In Benefits
angry eyes and felt again the quiver
OF fear.
'She gives you all she gets her fin
gers on" she came back at him i'm de-
fense Of the absent Evelyn. Lots Of
times she's got along on about nothin'
TO send you cash. an didn't | come
runnin up here with il as soon as she
give it To me? Now her mas gettin'
on that Eve amt spendin' her money
on herself, an she watches 'er like a
hawk does chicken. She told me
that only yesterday"
The squatter girl rose TO her feet,
anxious TO be gone.
Oscar, you might be lettin' me
have just wee bit Of milk. You
amt losin' nothin through me-"
She picked up the pail, and with a
growl the man snatched il out of her
hand.
"Womenre ID nuisance" he
grumbled. "Well, wait here"
He went out Of the room, and Polly
Hopkins drew a long breath. 1t was
getting harder every day to get the
milk she needed.
When Bennett returned, she was
standing with her hand on the door
knob, ready to GO In silence she took
the pail he offered her.
"Looka here, pollyop," he began alb
ruptlv. as Polly opened the door.
The Belding banner-news., 1922-02-08

Whats 10 hinder your paying for
your milk yourself?"
He said II with extreme deliberation,
making emphatic the last words.
Polly threw up her head and eyed
him sharply. II run my legs most Off
for you as 'tis Oscar" she retorted,
between here and the Robertsons' !;
but don't never have no money. You
know that, an Daddy Hopkins don't
get much, either. II had a dollar,
bet I'd spend every penny Of 1t film
up Jerry an Daddy an Granny Hope
with milk an eggs" To make him
understand how anxious she was TO
please him. she went forward a pace.
AN I'd buy 'em all Of you, Oscar.
That's rs true as Granny Hopes God
is settin' up in the sky"
81 didn't ask you for money" an
swered Bennett, staring at her. Sud-
denly he came close to her; and Polly
backed to the door. His face was red
and agitated: the cords In his neck
