The motor boat Heron was seized
in the Golden Gate and brought into
port here at Q 4. m. today, loaded to

The coast guard patrol boat Tu-

FREE SKATERS MAY
REFUSE DE VALERA
NEW PEACE MOVE
Governments Demand to
Surrender Arms
Halts Move
by UnIt.d Press Leased Wire

DUBLIN, April 2S. "A hasty
conference Of free state cabinet
members was called today at the
Mansion House to form the govern
ment' s reply to the DeValera peae"
move.
Indications were sIrong tIac 1t
would be rejected.
The plea that has been transmit
ted from DeValera does not mention
a surrender Of arms which the
government heretofore has always
insisted must be the first basis OF
peace.
1t only orders suspension of hos
tilities on Monday under certain
conditions which DeEalera, its an
thor, pronounces essential to- sue
cessful enforcement of peace.
The DeFalera plan suggests as
basis of peace:
Sovereign rights of the nation be
declared inalienabie.
All legitimated authority be de-
rived from the people exclusively.
The ballot box be considered the
ultimate court of jurisdiction.
These terms plainly are 4 reiter
alton Of the primary DeValera plea
for n plebiscite to decide the issue
between his rebel forces and the
free state government.

by United Press Leased Wire

LAUSANNE, April 2s.-The ac.
tion of the United States in back
ing the allies against Turkey in the
matter of capitulations threw the
near east peace conference into still
further dissension today.
The Turks, who Jecently granted
the Chester group of America val
uable oil leases and concessions in
Anatolia, had professed their be-
lief that the United States would
abandon its former stand and side
with them on the capitulations issue,
Joseph c. Dew, head of the Amer
lean delegation. however, thorough.
ly dissipated this hope by interven-
ing in the debate and making plain
the position of the United States.
The American government, he
said. would never consent to any
proposition that rights acquired in
u treaty eouio 10 aorogated by ac-
tion such as was taken by the Turks
in 1914.
The Turks maintained that the
treaties made before the war were

Hughes Repeats His
Opposition to

Hy United Press Leased Wire

WASHINGTON. April 2S. - a
threatened split of the Republican
party over President Harding $
world court issue ostensibly has
been avcrted today.
President Harding, so far as ap-
pearances went, has either silenced
or won over all the "regular repub-
licans who had manifested either
uneasiness or hostilitv.' The ire
eonelables like Borah and La Fol
cite alone are standing oat against
him.
This situation was brought about
when the "uneasy' group declined
the president 5 challenge to risk a
party split now by contesting the
court issue. That challenge which
he flung at them in his New York
speech Tuesday, was definitely de
clined last night by Senator Wat
son, spokesman for the group, in 4
speech in Pittsburg. Watson said
in effect that there would be nc
party split, no discord, nothing but
harmony within the party ranks.
At the same time Secretary of
State Hughes addressing the Amer
lean Society of international Law
virtually repeated the President 5
New York speech by saying that
membership in the court was not 1
step toward membership in th'
league; there would be no entangle
ment, and that this government was
set against joining the league.

CLASS PLAY IS
CLEVERLY DONE
BY SENIOR CLASS
Pupils Des erve Much
Credit for Ambitious
Undertaking

''The Admirable Crichton', the
James Barrie play presented by the
senior class Of the high school last
night was q brilliant success in ev-
cry sense of the word and too much
credit cannot be given Chen Rice,
director, and every member of the
east who helped to make the affair.
The South Sea island scenes were
painted and assembled by the pupils
themselves under the direction Of
Prof. Allen and show real art.
The vivid thunder and lightning
effects, as well as the real looking
camp fire, are also worthy of spe
cial mention.
Kleigel Is Splendid
Every member OF the cast por-
trayed his role so splendidy Y that
comparisons are difficult, but if
forced to select the outstanding
characters, the honors would be ear
ried off by Russell Kleigel, as the
perfect butler Crichton, Hoyt
Striekier. blase young English
rh"" and Tweeney, the scullery
maid, portrayed by Katherine Sey-
iuUur.
Lord Loan, with i6eas on equali-
ty, handled by Cecil Gibbs was par
tieularly well done Crichton is n
difficult role and might have been
made laughable by over-acting, but
the poise and dignity that eharac,
terized the handling of the part by
young Kleigel was surprise and
delight to everyone in the audience,
The portrayal of Lady Mary by
Darleen Penny might almost have
been professional, and her sisters
were ably portrayed by Dorothy
Waite and Blanche Cummings.
Others Did Well
Jack Carr as the ministerial
friend of the family, Frances Fuller
as the naughty grand English dame
and Lord Brocklehurst, her son, en-
acted by Donald Starr were others
who did equally well.
The servants who were bid to sup
tea with aristorrRcy were clever in
dress and action and created a gale
of mirth.
Certainly no one should fail to
see the play tonight for which a
great number of tickets have al
ready been sold, according TO report.
Vocal solos by Delbert Finley and
selections by the high school orches.
ira were delightful additions to the
program.

SPLEN DID new
HOME PLANNE Ed
FOR HUGE BANK

The FL Centre Branch of the Pa
cific- Southwest Trust and Savings
Bank has Just announced the plans
for the building of a new home for
the Pacific Southwest Trust and
Savings Bank in Los Angeles. The
details of the transaction are as
follows:
As result of a contract worked
out by the Pacific Southwest Trust
and Savings Bank. Desmonds and
the Columbia Investment Company
of Los Angeles, the bank will build
new Glass A History unit next to
the present banking quarters of its
central office in Los Angeles. on the
ground now occupied by the Des-
mond s Clothing store. Under this
plan, tile present banking quarters
will be more than doubled. The
first and second floors of the new
building will be occupied by the
bank while the Hine stories above
will be given over to general office
use.
As soon as the new Desmond
Building on Broadway can be erect
I'd, the present structure occupied
by Desmond = will be wrecked and
the new bank building will be built
thereon.
Present Building Inadequate
The Trust and Savings Building
which is one of the outstanding ar
chiteetural features OF the city, is
inadequate for the present needs of
the Paeifie-Southwest Trust and
Savings Bank. The building was
designed TO house q banking institu-
tion with approximately $l0,000,000
resources. Today the resources Of
the Pacific Southwest Trust and
Savings Bank alone total more than
Sl53.OO0 900 while the aggregate re-
sources of The First National Bank
and the First Securities Company
total more than $243,000,000.
