With Militarism

BY SIR PHILIP GIBBS.

Special Cable TO THE NEW York HERALD.
LONDON. Oct. %.
TIME men and women In England
who are doing their best to pro-
mote friendship between their
country and the United States are Sc
riously disturbed by criticism that is
coming across the Atlantic regarding
British concessions to Turkey during
the Near East crisis.
One eminent American journalist,
whose opinions are respected in Eng
land for fearless truth telling. states
In a long article that American opin-
ion of British policy and character has
been severely knocked by the British
Governments acceptance OF Turkeys
return to Europe. without adequate
defense of the Christian minorities.
England. he said. stood high in Ameri-
can opinion when, alone. her troops
faced the Turks at Chanak and ac-
dropped to zero when that war did not
happen and the Turks. fresh from the
bonfire Of Smyrna. were allowed back
to Constantinople and Thrace. The
enthusiasm of Christian churches in
America on behalf OF England's war
like defense Of Christian Europe
against Mohammedan invasion was
he added, utterly chilled.
II that Is true disagnosis of Ameri-
can opinion it is very disturbing. and
will lead to complete misunderstand-
ing between American and British
democracy. Liberal opinion in Great
Britain believed for long time that
enlightened thought in America and
the very instincts of the American
people were steadily in favor of all
efforts on behalf of world peace and
rehabilitation of standing armies and
reduction Of naval armaments. Did
! not the Washington conference up
hold that ideal? Has not every word
that has come from the White House
on the subject OF international policy
been in the nature of warning tina,
the United States desired a peaceful
spirit in Europe before interesting her
self directly in its economic troubles?
Only the other day Hoover issued 9
solemn demand for payment Of Euro
pean debts and expressed his belief
that these could be fulfilled if the Eu-
ropean nations were to establish them
selves on a peace footing and reduce
their armies and navies. With that
attitude there Is no quarrel among the
majority OF British people who are de-
termined to avoid war il 1t Is humanity
honorably possible to do SO. and tc
allay war fevers in the world wherever
they may break out.

II Harrington had not put an iron re-
straint upon the young British soldiers
surrounded by the Turks and under
great provocation. England would now
have been mobilizing all her citizens.
and spending all that remains to her
in wealth, which Is not much. After
that war Great Britain would pay no
money over to America, as she is now
doing. Her financial ruin would have
been complete. All the world. I am
certain, would have been ablaze before

TO DELAY DECISION

Carson City, New, Jan. 31.-No de-

of reopening the divorce of Mary
Pickford. now Mrs. Douglas Fair

supreme court for at least ninety days.
The ease was submitted to the state
tribunal after six hours Of verbal ar

In his argument against the reopen

counsel for the motion picture star.

OTHERS GOT AWAY WITH IT

Chicago. Jan. S1-Athletic authori-
ties at Notre Dame and the University
of Illinois are looking for the man
higher up in the football scandal
that has wrecked athletic teams at
these two institutions. The "fixer'
who induced the college stars to par
ticipate in the outlaw football game
at TaylorvilIe, H., is being sought.
Protect go Between"
So far the players who admitted
participation in the game have re-
negotiations or induced them to play.
With traditional college stoicism, they
have taken their medicine" and re-
fused to peach on the man or men
who involved them in the scandal
The authorities of the two schools
whose players are involved desire to
learn the identity of the men who
tempered with the college players as
a protective measure against future
happenings of the sort. If there exists
an agency outside of college circles
that is responsible for inducing ath-
letes to break college athletic rules.
the authorities are eager to learn OF
it, that they may taken cembative
measures.
Stamp Out Professionalism.
Action to stamp out professionalism
in middle western schools is certain to
be one of the chief Subjects for dis
cussion at the annual meeting of the
big ten" conference athletic author1-
ties at Iowa City next June. Coach A.
A. Stage, of the University of Chicago,
has announced he will bring the mat
ter before the meeting.
Among University of Illinois players
there is a disposition, according to re-
ports here, TO resent their Punishment
from athletics because OF participation

man. star quarterback, who was one
of the nine Illinois men suspended
from further participation in athletics,
is quoted as saying:

baseball players in the big ten break
the rules in the summer but nothing
is done about it"
George Huff. director of athletics
at Illinois, declared that any coach
or director who thinks his athletes
are living up to the rule against play
ing summer baseball 'is kidding him
SELF He expressed the opinion that
the rule is a failure.
Teams Are Wrecked.
The probability is that athletic au-
thorities of the various schools will
take steps either to assure enforce
ment of the rule as it applies to base
pail players, or 10 resclnd OF hOdlIy II
There is considerable sentiment in
favor of permitting ball players to
play semi-professional or professional
baseball during the summer.
At Notre Dame, one of the i'm
mediate problems of the athletic heads
is to rebuild the teams that have been
wrecked by the exposure that eight
star athletes participated in the ''out-
law football game and their resultant
suspension. Eddie Anderson. Kiley
and Mehre were regulars on the has
ketbau team, while Chef Wynne and

feated Sailor Jack" Woods, a To-
peka boy, by winning two out of three
falls in a match Monday night at War
hicks hall.
After wrestling for one hour and
one minute Pappas secured a head
scissors and arm lock and the first
fall went to him. In eight minutes
Wood took the second fall by means
of a body scissors and half Nelson.
The third fall went to Pappas, which
was sort of a flying reverse full Mel
son. which Pappas calls the aeroplane.
Wood hit the mat hard following the
third fall and tainted Practically
all Of the Woods supporters waited for
him to revive, which he did shortly,
and then cheered him.
Wood applied the deadlock time
after time but was unable to pin
Pappas' shoulders to mat Pappas
Woods by his litheness and speed
broke away several times from holds
that looked like a sure fall.
The affair was q better exhibition
bout than a match, as many varieties
of hold were displayed and broken.
In a preliminary match KID Orr
and Carl Magart wrestled twenty
minutes without a fall. Dummy
Davis and KID Palmer boxed for
three rounds
Harper Rigby. promoter Of the
match. announced that he would try to
arrange a bout between Davis and Joe

LEovIL1E WINS IT'S FIGHT.
Judge Whitcomb Decides That Side
track Must Be Built.

The little town of Leoville, in De-
catur county, came out victorious in
its fight for a sidetrack when Judge
George Whitcomb in the district court
Monday handed down a decision deny
ing the Rock Island railroad an in
junction against the public utilities
commission which would have pre-
vented the commission from enforcing
its order compelling the railroad to
build a sidetrack to the little Ger
man-Catholic settlement.
Leoville is only two and a quarter
miles from Dresden and six miles
from Selden, but it was growing so
rapidly that it asked for a railroad
station. The railroad refused to build
it on the grounds that the other two
stations were so close, but Leoville
applied to the utilities commission
and won. Then the railroad asked for
an injunction. The case was argued
before Judge Whitcomb January 5,
and he took it under Amusement The
decision Monday insures the town of
a sidetrack to its elevator, unless the
case is carried to the supreme court.

to Bring Relief.

Leading authorities are using every
effort to arouse the public to the dan

cations such as pneumonia. grippe.
etc, are the direct result of colds that

any cold they may contract, before

three days cough is natures warning
and the time for immediate action has
arrived.
OF all the cough and cold remedies,

which has been accomplishing such re-

first dose usually stops the tendency to

the feeling of discomfort. and the sec

READY TO SOW SPRING CROPS
Kansas Farmers Plan on Putting in
Crop of Oats.

Freezing weather over the state
makes it impossible to tell exactly
the condition of the wheat crop, ac-
cording to the crop report issued to-
day covering crop conditions in Kan
sas up to January %. The report is
sued by the state board OF agricuI-
ture is supplemented by information
from the county farm bureaus, county
agents, oranges and county deputies
Soil blowing is reported, as a result
of high winds in Wichita and Greeley
counties Farmers are planning for
the sowing of spring crops, the first
of which will be oats, and with the
announcement that prices on live
stock. particularly hogs, have been
better than usual at sales which have
been held during the week, is the
statement that the spring pig crop will
probably be bigger than has been the
rule in the past few years
The complete report is as follows:
The dry weather continues over
most of the state, a1tho some snow fell
in the east central and southeastern
portions last week. In east central
Kansas the depth registered from one
and a half to two inches, while coun-
tics in the southeast received from
three to four inches of snow. Only
light SHOWS, One-eighth inch or less.

state. The week has been cold and
cloudy most of the time and the
ground is frozen. A high wind on Sat
! urday was reported from Wichita and
Greeley counties causing some soil
blowing

/ impossible to tell much about the con-
dition of the wheat and only the COM
| ing of spring temperatures will reveal
1 this information. Farmers are plan
ming for the sowing of spring crops,
the first of which will be oats. 1t is
! expected that this work will start in
the southeastern counties within two
or three weeks if weather conditions
are favorable.
THE freezing temperatures have
been of assistance in harvesting ice
in northwest Kansas. and this work
has been pushed during the past week
Live stock, particularly hogs. has
been bringing fairly good prices at
sales which have been held lately, and
the outlook is for a much larger spring
pig crop than has been the rule in the
/ past few years. An interesting item
from Clark, a western county. is that
two full carloads of poultry have been
shipped from Ashland within the
seven days just closed"
