Miss Alice spoke beautifully of re-
tirement and the joy of home life, but
now she has a clerical job in a gov
eminent bureau. She is now getting
a regular salary again and undoubt-
eddy finds it convenient. Her present
pay is much less than her income as a
congresswoman, but her pay as con-
gresswoman did not leave much of a
margin She left congress with less
to live on than she had when she
went in Prior to her election she had
a prosperous little cafeteria. Leaving
ization of defeat she had no cafeteria
and no inclination to start one. Being
in congress is not conducive to a de-
sire of humber employment. One

AUTO FATALITIES IN 1922.
nndnstrial News Rnreaul


Figures compiled by the national
bureau of Casualty and Surety I'm
derwriters reveal that $4,000 people
were killed in America last year as a
result of automobile accidents.
This represents an increase of 1900,
or II per cent. over 1921 Automobile
accidents in 1922 were responsible for
81 per cent of all of the vehicular ia
talities within the last sixty years,
more than four times the number
caused by railFoad trains and seven
times those due to street railways.
The only ray of sunshine in the re-
port is revealed in the fact that while
the number of automobiles have in
creased five fold since 1915 the total
of automobile fatalities has little more
than doubled.
Education apparently is the only
remedy since the traffic regulation
has proved a failure. Carelessness at
railroad crossings is one of the great
est causes of automobile fatalities and
this in spite of the fact that transpor-
tation companies do everything in
their power to keep people off the
tracks.

I cause they expressed opinions; they
are under lock and bolt because in
their conspiracy to hamstring the
country they committed overt acts in
violation of the law.
1t is not the truth that they were
tried in an atmosphere charged with
prejudice; on the contrary, their
rights were carefully protected dur
ing their trial. On their innocence

there are any number of people who
have an idea a newspaper is merely

GRAHAM MOVES
FOR ANOTHER
TRIAL
NAVY Man Asks Court to Re-
vive Humes 100000
Love Suit.

Counsel for Lieut.. Lorimer c.
Graham, U. 8. N, today submitted
to Justice HitZ, in Circuit Division
No. 1, motion for a new trial of
the half-million-dollar suit filed by
him against Augustine L. Humes, of
New York, for alleged alienation of
the affections of formers wife, now
Mrs. Humes.
The naval officer, represented by
Attorneys Daniel Thew Wright and
Philip Ershler, claimed that Humes
persuaded the then Mrs. Elsa Port
ner Graham to secure a divorce from
him at Reno in January 1919 and to
marry Humes in the following April.
The case was taken under advise
ment.
The trial of the case, which lasted
five weeks, resulted, December IA
last, in a verdict in favor of Humes.
Graham, through his counsel, claim
ed the verdict was contrary to the
weight of the evidence and that the
court erred in allowing certain testi-
mony and excluding other evidence
submitted by him.

CANCELLA ton
Of DEBT HERE
FLOUTED
State Department Will Refuse
to Consider Preparations
Plan involving Them.

While viewing the European stu
alton with undisguised apprehension,
and sincerely DESTROYS of seeing a
settlement of the reparations contro-
versy, this Government will not con-
slider even for an instant any settle
ment plan that is based in whole or
in part upon cancellation of any, of
the $11, 200, 900 900 owed the United
States by foreign nations.
This flat announcement was made
at the State Department here today,
in response to cabled reports from
abroad that French experts were
engaged in drawing up a new repa-
rations settlement plan, based upon
partial cancellation of the British
debt by the United States.
Efforts Useless.
II the French experts are pre-
pairing such a plan for presentation
by the French government, they
might as well conserve their eff
forts, for they are being expended
uselessly, it was officially stated.
One official laconically observed
that it should not be necessary
to inform Europe more than once
a day that the United States does
not intend to cancel dollar of the
indebtedness"
Officials were inclined more to
amusement than irritation over the
latest suggestion emanating from
French sources. In official COM
munications, in private converse
tions and in many other ways, the
American Government has informed
it's debtor nations. chiefly Great
Britain, France, Italy and Belgium,
that it does not intend to entertain
cancellation proposals, yet per1od1-
cally such suggestions are made
abroad, and Washington off1c1aldom
has reached the state where all
such plans and stories are now con-
sidered merely propaganda.
Officials Pessimistic.
In official quarters today, the
Francois situation was viewed
with deepest pessimism, and the
opinion was put forward that a
crash" is not far distant. The ex-
tent or consequences of such a
crash were subjects that Admin
istration officials did not care to
speculate upon, but it was predicted
by those in close touch with the
situation that the present state of
affairs cannot continue longer than
thirty days.
BY that time, it was said, Ger
many will be virtually coal-less in
the dead of winter, and the chaotic
effects of such a condition were
left to imagination.

ton, az viewed by officials here, is
