London. September 19.-For the
time being the scene in the Near
EAST shifts to Paris where Lord
Curzon. the British secretary of for
eisn affairs. Will seek to obtain har-
mony of views between his own and
the French government. The MINIS
terial conferences in London have
ended for the moment and Premier
Lloyd George has gone to the coun-
try.
That the general situation is re-
garded as easier is shown by the
fact that Mustapha Renal Pasha,
leader OF the Turkish nationaIists. is
apparently making no new move, al
though according to an Athens re-
port which has reached LONDON he
left Smyrna for Nicomedia, adjoin-
ing Ismid. south of Constantinople,
while 1t is said tonight that Admiral
Earl Beatty may find 1t unnecessary
OF proceed to Paris.
On the other hand, perhaps. the
most important news of the day
comes in the Associated Press dis
patches from ConstantinopIe stating
that Renal Pasha has sought per-
mission OF the allies to occupy part
of Thrace Immediately, and discuss the
question of the status of the Dar-
danelles later in connection with tho
general peace problem and with the
of all the Black Sea
countries.
This touches the crux OF the whole
question. There may possibly be an
agreement between Great Britain,
France and Ietaly on the question OF
the neutrality of the straits. and a
further agreement that Constanti-
Eople shall eventually be returned to
the Turks under certain conditions.
But on the question of the future OF
Thrace. outside the neutral zona
ouch an agreement is lacking.
Renal Pasha seemingly takes the
view that there is nothing in the
maintenance of the neutrality OF the
straits and the neutral zone to pre-
vent his forces from pursuing the de-
feated Greeks into those portions OF
Thrace outside the neutral zone. The

Roads Blowing Up;
Repairs Delayed
at a Heavy Cost


Five blowouts on the Hastings and
San Mateo brick roads occurred dur
ing last week, causing damage that
increases with each day that repairs
are not made. The blowouts are
caused by the intense heat which fol-
lows rain, the steam under the brick,
and the expansion, causing the road
bed to buckle and heave up. Those
who have been near them when they
blew up said it sounds like an explo-
sion.
Repairs have not yet been made,
and with hundreds of cars humping
over these places deterioration is
rapid.
Some time ago committees repre-
senting the various civic organiza-
tions of the city went before the coun-
ty commissioners and asked that a
road engineer be named. The board
promised to take the matter under
advisement, and is expected to take
some definite steps at the next meet
ing.

THE BELLS

Innumerable and interesting are the
traditions surrounding bells.
Bells have ever played an important
part in religious ceremonies.
There are numerous legends that
consecrated bells would, if stolen, re-
turn to their own home, ringing all
the way.
st. Paulinus of Nola and Pope
Sabian in the Seventh century are
each credited with the introduction OF
bells at mass.
The Angelus bell, always rurg
thrice a day, takes its name from the
first words of the prayer. The De-
Profundis bell sounds one hour after
the Ave.
It was only a comparatively recent
date that bells were used for calling
people to church. For ages they were
designed solely for keeping evil spirits
at a safe distance.
In the books of Exodus and Ecclesi-
astes the ornaments Of the high
priests ephod include bells, so that
their sound might be heard whenever
he goeth in or cometh out of the sane
tuary."
In many English parishes the shriv-
ing bell used to be rung the morning
of Shrove Tuesday to remind the
faithful to confess before Lent. This
has now changed its name to "Pan-
cake bell"
AS nearly as may be determined the
object of the curfew, or couvrefeu
(cover fire), rung in olden times as a
signal for the extinguishing Of all
fires, was exclusively political or so
cial, and not religious.

FAT PURSES PLAN
G.. o. P. CAMPAIGN.

u. 1
In defiance and contempt Of popu-
lar opinion concerning the huge ex-
penditures of money in the Newberry
and Pinchot primary campaigns, the
republican national committee recent
lye called together the "fat purses"
and representatives of special inter-
ests for the purpose of raising huge
campaign fund, with the sky as the
limit, for the purpose of controlling
the general election this fall.
The list of those in attendance COM
prises big bankers, representatives
of various trusts, railroad directors,
multi-millionaire manufacturers and
officials of corporations making huge
profits and paying huge dividends.
In the list we find Henry Buckley
Wilcox, the big Maryland banker;
Henry P. Scott, the big Delaware
banker; George S. Stevenson, the big
Connecticut banker; William H.
Crocker, the big California banker;
E. T. Stotesbury, the big Philadelphia
and New York banker, and member
q fthe firm of J. P. Morgan & Co.;
Arthur V. Davis, of Pittsburg, presi-
dent of Mr.. Melons aluminium trust;
Fred B. Patterson, of Ohio, president
of the National Cash Register COM
pany; D. H. Kroger, the Cincinnati
multi-millionaire baker and grocer;
Roy Dikeman Chaplin, of Michigan,
motor car manufacturer, William
Wrigley, head of the chewing gum
trust, and Charles D. Hills, former
chairman of the republican national
committee, now identified with big
New York corporations.
In the published list of those pres
ent are the names of the following
republican officials:
Vice President Coolidge (although
it is not reported that he gave nay
thing); Secretary Mellon, Secretary
Weeks, Attorney General Daugherty
and Senator DUPONT of the powder
trust family and New York hote
magnate.
Of those present William Wrigley
of Chicago, who is reported to have
given $4,000, just to start the thing
has already received substantial ben
efits by the taking of the tax of
chicle from which chewing gum is
made, and Mr.. Patterson has beer
benefited by taking cash registers off
the free list and putting 25 per cent
tax on them. The DuPonts have re.
ceived incalculable benefits in the
chemical schedule of the pending. tar.
iff bill.
The important decisions arrived al
were to take off the limit of 1000 or
contributions alleged to have beer
imposed by former Chairman Hays
and to raise S5OO,OOO for educationa
purposes, which, in the opinion OF
4 many here, would not be enough tc
educate one orthodox republican; ed
cational," in this respect, however, is
merely a camouflagel term. The
amount of money to be raised for 9th
er purposes was limited by the sky.
The reactionary leadership of the
republican party, with nothing in the
record of the administration to at.
tract or hold voters, has initiated the
campaign of 1922 by adhering to the
policy of Hannaism and Newberry'
ism of rallying around the dollar
mark.
