SUIT TO PREVENT STORE
FROM OPENING HERE

NEWARK, Nov. 23.-The Thrift
Stores Company, of Perth Amboy,
has instituted a suit in the chancery
court to prevent Joseph S. Abrams
from opening store at 70 Smith
street, Perth Amboy. Vice Chancel-
lor Backes has directed Abrams to
answer the complaint in the chan
Gerry court next Tuesday.
Wight. Wight and Golenbock rep
resent the Thrift Stores and accord
ing to the complaint, the Thrift
Company obtained a ten year lease
on the building in question from the
r. M. Kelly Realty Company last
January. The building was not to
be sub-leased without the consent
of the realty company, and last July
after obtaining the consent of the
owner, the Thrift company SUBJ
leased the store to Leo Berlow. Two
weeks ago, Berlow turned his lease
over to Abrams and it is said, the
realty company would not give per-
mission for the latest deal unless
certain improvements were made
to the property.
Abrams took the assignment from
Berlow without making any i'm
provements and has advertised to
open tomorrow. The Realty com
pany has threatened to cancel the
whole lease.

GERMAN CHANCELLOR
MAKES DEMAND FOR
Vote OF Confidence
PREPARATION COMMISSION
HEARS GERMANY'S PLEA

PARIS, Nov. 23 (By The Associat-
ed Press) Tho Allied Reparation
Commission today heard the German
delegation regarding the capacity of
the Reich to pay. The sitting was
opened at 1915 o'clock and lasted
an hour and a half, being entirely
occupied by an exposition of the
German economic and financial sit
uations by DR.. Fischer, under-secre-
tary of treasury for the Reich.
DIR. Fischer spoke sometimes in
French and sometimes in German.
In conclusion he informed the COM
mis- ssSn that number of documents
were available in support of his dec
larations, and that the German dele
cation would hold itself at the dis
posal of the reparation delegates for
any information it could supply
verbally to supplement his state
ment.
The commission, which seemed to
find the statement sufficiently ex-
plicit, will consider DIR. Fischer S
declarations and the supporting doc
uments next Tuesday and probably
will then decide whether it is neces-
sary to all the delegation again.
All the delegates and assistant

OKLAHOMA CITY, Okla, Nov.
% (By The Associated Press) u.
c. Walton, removed Monday as gov
ernor, was today indicted by the
Oklahoma county grand jury on two
counts charging diversion Of public
funds and interfering with the con-
vening of a grand jury.
DR.. A. u. Davenport, state health
commissioner, and T. p. Edwards,
the former governors personal
chauffeur, were also indicted on
charges of diverting state money.
The indictment regarding the al
legged diversion of funds charges a
felony. The grand jury charge con-
stitutes a misdemeanor.
The allegations are virtually the
same as those involved in the i'm
parchment articles, upon whlch
Walton was found guilty. They
charge the former executive with
placing Edwards on the payroll on
the state Health Department at the
time Edwards was acting As his
chauffeur, and with preventing a
special grand jury in Oklahoma city
on September IT, by use of military
force, The indictments against Dr.

THREE IN RACE
FOR COLLECTOR
Sheehy Says He Will be Glad
to Accept Position If Of
fered to Him
RHODES AND MUlLlN ALSO
MuIiin Candidate Last Year
When Effort Was Made to
Gust HornSby

'If the appointment is offered to
me | will be glad to accept 1t. Ihls
was the statement made to an EVEN
ing News reporter today by John n.
Sheehy when questioned concerning
the truth of the rumor that he Is
candidate for the Office of collector
of revenue in this city.
According to the talk in politlcal
circles today, there are three candl-
dates for this position, which VIII
become vacant on January /, Wheh
the term of Joseph Hornsby, the
present collector, expires. The three
candidates mentioned for the ONCE
are John X. Sheehy, James Rhoaes
and James Mullin. Mullin was
candidate for the office last year ana
as such was appointed to the posi-
ton. However, Hornsby contendeu,
that his term did not expire until
January, 1924, and the court pattie
which resulted upheld Horhsny
claims and he remained IN once.
/ The rumor which is receiving con-
zsiderable attention by the politlclans
of both the Republican ana DEM
ocratic parties, contends that al
though Mullin is probably the one
10 whom the appointment should go
named last wear to succeed Horns
by. that when the matter is again
taken up it will be doubtful if he
will receive the required number OF
votes. This doubt on the part of the
politicians is said to be responsible
for the fact that Sheehy and Rhodes
have been mentioned as candidates
for the office.
