POWERS DIFFER
OVER RUSSIA
Divergencies of Opinion Re-
ported at Genoa Conference
documents Not Endorsed

GENOA, April IA (By The Associ-
ated Press) ).-Divergencies Of opin-
ion over Russia are reported to have
developed this morning during the
big four's conference on Russian
power.
The participants were representa-
tives of France, England, Italy and
Belgium. The Italian delegation
afterward confirmed the report that
the documents drawn up by allied
dealing with Russia,
had not been endorsed by the various
allied governments. The Italian ex-
pert had disapproved of the clauses
of the report that humiliate Rus
sia. Mr.. Lloyd George had favored
the Russian proposal to grant Rus
sia damages as result of military
operations against the Soviet regime.
GENOA. April II (By The Asso-
ciated Press) :-Europe's financial
tangle was brought to the front for
consideration at today's session OF
the conference, further discussion of
Russian affairs having been post
poned until tomorrow.
Sir Basil Blackett, comptroller of
finance of the British treasury, call
ed his special consultative commit
tee OF a, ancial experts together hop
ing to evolve the basis for pre-
liminary report to the financial COM
mission tomorrow.
This special committee. which was
appointed yesterday, comprises rep
resentatives of nearly every Euro
pean country excepting Russia and
its members are reputed to be the
leading financial experts of the con-
tinent.
M. Bartheaus address yesterday,
the report of which quickly spread
to official conference circles, was
widely commented on this morning
as indicating that France, while per-
sistently conciliatory, is determined
to play no second fiddle at Genoa.
On the contrary the impression is
strong that France will insist to the
bitter end to her right to live as
the French put it.
The head of the French delega-
ton, who is one of his countrys
most winning orators, was never in
better form than when he scored
those whom he charged with unjus-
tifiably indicting France as mill
taristic nation.
He added:
1T is the very existence of intel
lectual France which is at stake and
we are vain enough to believe that
the world still needs France. We
are not excited; we are calm and
reasonable and ready to work in the
great task of saving Europe, for
work, not words. is the great need
of the hour. France wishes to be
judged by her acts. not be words"

Woman Mayor viii
Not Ban Short Skirts
From Ohio Village

MAGNETIC SPRINGS. Ohio, Jan.
1S.-Bobbed hair and short skirts
will not be banished from Magnetic
Springs under the old-fashioned adj
nlinistration which Mrs. Mary Nc
Fadden, eighty, oldest woman
mayor, launched today.
II can stand it if they can," she
said.
Mrs. McFadden, just appointed
head of this little village, was busy
experimenting baking of doughnuts,
cookies and cakes with which she
will open her first council meeting
tonight.
"I'm going to give this town a
scrubbing behind the ears, too" she
said as she busted herself with Otti-
cial preparations. II will have this
village as clean as a pin by spring.
MY plan is to recruit the men
folks to help make this health resort
the prettiest place in the state. Any
one who refuses to work for me
will be fed on bread and water.
And bootleggers-I have no SYM
pathy for them. AS judge of the city
court 1 will deal with them severely
and give every one the limit. The
city Jail hasn't had an occupant in
three months, but I'll get the cob
webs out and have it ready for COM
Dany."

CONGRESS CREATES
FARMER member
Of RESERVE BANK

WASHINGTON, Jan. 1S.-The
first step to bring about farmer rep
resentation on the federal reserve
board was taken by the senate Tues
day in the passage of the Kellogg
Smith compromise bill increasing
the boards appointive membership
from five to six and providing that
the agricultural interests shall have
a spokesman among them.
BY the bill, which constitutes an
amendment to the federal reserve
act, the limited designation of the
present law is wiped out and instead
of the specific provision for the
naming of two bankers to the board,
the statute, if agreed to by the
house, will direct the president in
making appointments to the board
to have due regard to fair repre-
sentation of the financial, agricul-
tural, industrial and commercial in
terest and geographical divisions of
the country" The measure also
provides that hereafter no federal
reserve bank may enter into a con-
tract for banking homes if their
cost is to exceed $250,000 unless the
consent of congress is first given.
Vote GO to 9
The vote by which the bill passed
was 63 to 8. Seven Of those who
opposed the proposition were Re
publicans and two Democrats. They
were: Brandegee, Connecticut;
Calder, New York; Edge, New Jer-
sey; Keyes,i New Hampshire; Nc
Lean, Connecticut Moses, New
Hampshire, and Wadsworth, New
York, Republicans, and Pomerene,
Ohio, and Williams, Mississippi,

ARMY PROBE YEARS
US. CRAVE WORKERS

WASHINGTON, Jan. 1S.-Former
service men detailed for duty with
the American Graves Registration
Service in France denied before a
senate investigating committee Tues
day that the bodies CT soldiers legal
ly put to death in France were
buried with a stub Of rope around
the neck and the black cap which
had been placed on them on the
gallows.
George A. Bamford, of Washing
ton, and John r. Flynn, CT Cam
bridge, Mass, both testified they had
heard of nothing to substantiate
such charges. Flynn declared that
Rufus P. Hubbard, of New York,
who had testified that he saw bodies
with a rope and cap intact, was
''trouble-maker," who had to be
transferred on that account.
The committee went into hanging
methods as part of its general in
vestigation of charges laid before
the senate by Senator Watson, DEM
ocrat, Georgia, that soldiers were
hanged without trial in France.
Flynn insisted that if the service
was unable to identify a body for

member of his platoon.

Witnesses Don't Agree

JOHN D, WALKER
IS NOW IN FRANCE,
LETTER DECLARES

SPARTA, Ca, Jan. 1S.-John D.
Walker, former Georgia banker,
prominent church lay leader and
business promoter, at one time presi-
dent Of chain Of ninety-seVen
banks in Georgia, Alabama and
Florida, who was indicted at the
September term Of Hancock supe-
rior court for embezzlement five
years ago, of the city of Sparta
sinking fund Of twenty thousand
dollars in money and municipal
bonds from the vault Of the First
National Bank of Sparta, has left
the continent and is now in France,
according to a letter just received
in Sparta from a trustworthy pas
senger on the same boat, the Ac-
quitania, on which Walker is said
to have taken passage.
When the Indictment against Wal
ker was returned by the grand jury,
he was q prominent Oil field pro-
moteri at San Antonio, Tex, and at
the instance of authorities here
Governor Thomas w. FIardwick
made requisition on Governor Pat
M. Neff for his extradition to Han
cock county to stand trial on the
indictment.
Walker was arrested by the sher-
iff of Bexar county, Texas, upon tel
egraphic request from J. M. Jack
son, sheriff Of Hancock county, but
was later discharged from custody
by the courts in San Antonio when
the requisition papers which had
left Sparta by registered mail from
the Hancock county sheriff were
alleged. to have been intercepted in
the mail and failed to reach their
destination.
Governor Hardwick issued second
extradition papers on Governor
Neff for Walkers extradition as
soon as it was brought to his
attention that the original pa
pers had miscarried. These were
sent direct to Austin from Cover.
nor Hardwick's office, and upon
them eXtradition was granted, Wal
ker having interposed no objection.
Governor Neff issued his warrant
for the re-arrest of Walker and for
warded it to Sheriff Tobin at San
Antonio, who has been unable to
apprehend the former banker, who
has been thought to have taken resi-
denca in ] Mexico until the letter re
ceived from France declares him to
be in that country.

WEEKS MAKES HOT
REPLY To FORD

WASHINGTON, Jan. 18.-Secre.
tary Weeks in a formal statement
Tuesday described as "unwarranted
criticism the assertions of Henry
Ford that action on the proposal of
the Detroit manufacturer for pur-
chase and lease Of the Muscle Shoals,
Ala, nitrate and power projects had
been unnecessarily delayed by the
war department.
The war secretary in his state
ment added that Mr.. Ford during
their conference here last Saturday
made no complaint as to delay and
gave the secretary to understand
that he would make no public state
nlent on the conference. Mr.. Weeks
stat ;ment was brought forth by
charges of unnecessary delay in
declarations made by Mr.. Ford prior
to his departure from Washington
after the conference.
The statement issued by Secretary
Weeks follows:
Eyes, I have noticed the comments
made by Mr.. Ford and sent out
through the press associations relat-
ing to his offer for the Muscle Shoals
plant. The facts are that after Mr..
Ford left my office he sent his secre.
tary to me to say that he did not
wish to make any statement to the
press and asked that 1 make what
ever statement seemed necessary re-
lating to our interview. This I did
within very few minutes, as repre-
SentatiVeS of the press were wait
ing in my office. The statement in
effect was that proposed to trans
init Mr.. Ford's offer to congress, the
only action 1 could take, as even
Mr.. Ford knows that I cannot sell
real estate without authority of con-
gress, and that nothing could come
of his offer, involving an appropria-
ton as it does. without the action
of congress-!
Apparently by the time Mr.. Ford
reached his hotel he had forgotten
the message he had sent me through
y
quoted, INDUCED in unjust and I'M
warranted criticism. I regret that
Mr.. Ford, by this action, seems to
have put himself in the class of
those who go to the press with that
kind of sentiment rather than saying
it to the individual concerned. 1t
would have been easy for him to
have done 50, as he had been taking
1on1
had not suggested any such thought;
neither has he nor his representa-
tives ever made any complaint to
me that I was unduly delayed ac-
ton. If they had done SO could
easily have demonstrated that there
was no basis for the charge"
The secretary explained that he
had mo intention of entering into a
controversy with Mr.. Ford, but the
statement Of last Saturday was too
raw to let it pass unnoticed."

HIS |*NERVE" COMPLETELY
GONE, PEACHTREE BANDIT
COMES BACK TO ATLANTA
By Angus Peterson

Sunday Magazine Editor of The Journal)
Frank B. DuPree the "Peachtree
bandit" arrived in Atlanta Wednes-
day in handouts in custody of At
1anta detectives who had gone to
Detroit, where he was captured last
Friday. The nineteen-year-o killer
was on the verge of collapse when
he faced a huge crowd that met his
train at the Union depot. He is eX-
pected to be given a speedy trial
nthe charge Of murder.
Nerve Completely Broken
DuPree may have been of the
bold, reckless type when he held up
the Nat Kaiser Jewelry store, but,
if he was, he has changed through
to his very liver since then. That
part of him seems to have become
perfect white. Today he is a
trembling, pasty faced, sometimes
fearful, boy. Last night, just after
supper had been brought in to him,
he became so hysterical that ar
rangements to interview him had to
be abandoned Officers decided he
had such a case Of nerves that to
cross examine him even in the mild
est way might cause him to collapse.
He lights one cigarette from anoth-
ed and seems intent on nothing SO
much as what quantity OF smoke
he can get into his lungs. L saw
him twice yesterday morning as ne
was being led to and from CONFER
ences with detectives. And each
time he walked in an uncertain wa
vering fashion with his head down
l. race.
To think of him as bandit VINO
entered a store alone, snatched
diamond from the hands of a sales
man ,pistoled a man who attempted
to stop him and shot another who
got in his way, seems impossible. In
his fit of Mysteries last night ne
looked much more like patient SUI
fering from nervous maiady IMAM
like a gunman.
Detectives who are bringing Du-
Pree to Atlanta, T. o. Sturdivant, OF
the city force, and F. E. Fem, as
sistant superintendent of the Allan
ia Pinkerton agency, have worked
up the case against DuPree and are
ready to bring him to trial imme-
diately. They believe it is possible
he will be put on trial this week IN
the criminal division of the superior
court on the charge of murder.
Blames Drunkenness
In his statements to detectives
and in the interview he gave me
yesterday, which is the only inter
view any newspaper man has secur-
ed from him, he attempts to stress
one point in particular-that he was
drunk when he killed Irby c. Wal.
ker, and that his mind was a blank
from the time he snatched the dia
mond ring until he found himself
in the haberdashery store in the
Kinlball house. tS5 ....
