BY International News Service.

CHICAGO, Feb. 21.-Wilbur Glenn
Voliva, overseer of Zion City, to-
day faced the possibility of a term
in Jail. He was found guilty Of
criminal libel by jury last night.
Counsel for Voliva annoNnced he
would demand a new trial.
Six months Imprisonment or a
fine of $4,000. or both, is the
maximum penalty that may be
melted out to Voliva.
The criminal libel charge against
Voliva was preferred by the Rev.
Thomas Nelson. pastor of an indie
pendent church in Zion City. He
accused Voliva of calling him a
billy goat" tom cat" and a
"blatherskite" among other things
in a pamphlet which Voliva dis
tributed.
Voliva and Nelson have had a
number of controversies. AT one
time VoliVa contended that Nelson
was attempting to displace him as
overseer.

trial has been set for March 10s

FOREIGN ROWS,
SAYS SCHWAB
Steel Magnate Tells London Of
American Sentiment To-
ward Europe.
By LUTHER A. HUSTON,
international News Service.

Copyright, 1923, by International News
Service.)
LONDON, Feb. 21.-Popular senti-
ment in the United States is opposed
to mingling in European political at
fairs, it was declared here today by
Charles M. lSchwab, one Of America s
greatest manufacturing magnates
and a close student of American
opinion. Schwab said that, while
Americans were willing to contribute
money to relieve suffering abroad,
they were disposed to let European
nations work out their own problems
FavOrs Active Interest.
II believe personally that the in
terests of the world would be pro-
NOTED by the United States taking
an active interest in the solution of
Europe's difficulties said -Schwab.
But popular sentiment, especially in
the middle West, is not in favor of
participating in European politics.
IF our money can help, then our
people are willing to do what they
can, but they are innately opposed
to allying themselves in any politi-
cal way with Europe. They are
more disposed to let Europe work
out her own salvation.
"Of course, I have views regard
ing the Ruhr, but am not a polite
ian. I am not going to express
them.
u. s. Shares I'm Suffering.
I'VE hope that the Ruhr problem
will be speedily adjusted, but it is
a great mistake to believe that
American industries are profiting
from the Ruhr situation. In fact
they are suffering more than they
are profiting by the general up
heaval."
Schwab has been Ill, but is I'M
visitors today for the first time
since last week.
Schwab said that Europe had a
misconception Of Americas wealth,
adding:
I'VE who are supposed to be so
wealthy have never been so poor
They talk about our having all the
gold. Il do not see it. Why,
could double my income by retiring
and putting my income in tax-exempt
securities.

lures"
Schwab said that the American
tariff was not affecting imports.
Touching upon the AngloAmer
lean debt settlement, he said it was
the greatest step ever taken for
binding British and American rela-
tons"
Schwab said he did not believe
that the other allied nations would
be pressed to pay their debts to the
United States during the present
European troubles.

Gated at Oatman Flat. The parents
were killed by Indians and two daugh-
ters, Mary Ann and Olive, seven and
sixteen years old, were carried Off as
slaves. Mary died after having been
traded to several tribes, but Olive sur
vived and was recovered by American
troops five years later. She was sent
East to be educated and returned to
Arizona, where she lived to a ripe old
age and was leader in social affairs.
However, she always wore a veil in
public, for the Indians had tattooed
their tribal insignia ON her chin and
lower law.
Gold was discovered in Oatman by
United States soldiers in 1865. Johnny
Moss made the first big strike. The
gold hunters of California heard of 1t,
and soon George Hearst, father of
William Randolph Hearst; Levi Par
sons, Joe Clark and other notable fig
ures came over and started prospect
ing syndicate. Many fortune was
taken out of the earth in the years that
followed. But the real Oatman boom
began with the finding Of fabulously
rich ledge by the United Eastern IN
1914, which shows no signs of ending.

by the Tifanys of New York, which
first led adventurers up into the region
from Mexico as far back as 1880. 1t Is
history that at that date several hun
dred Spaniards and 1900 Indians left
Mexico City to find the precious treas
ures of the Seven Cities of Cibola, in
the present state of Arizona, and that
from 1880 to 1889 Cortez sent four ex-
peditions up from Mexico one of which
he headed himself. Friar Marco de
MIA ii was who brought back to the
Spaniards the wondrous tales of the
Cibola villages where they use vessels
of gold and silver, for they have no
other metal"
But the present prospectors at Oat-
man are all of the sort of folk who
never look back. They live romance in
stead of reading it; their lives are
filed with the adventure of pioneering,
unchanged from the days of Cortez ex-

danger enough to make it attractive,
what with dynamite and moonshine

follow in the train of sudden wealth.
