PEDESTRIANS FAIL
TO WATCH SIGNALS
Police Efforts to Apply New
Traffic Rule NuIIified
by Careless.

Despite the redoubled efforts Of
most of Washington's traffic police
| men to give pedestrians time to clear
the busy crosswalks before turning
traffic against them, observation at
the more congested intersections to-
day showed little disposition on the
part of many pedestrians to cooper
! ate in a movement that is designed
| for their own safety.
Sure of their immunity frons ar
rests for acts that would send a mo-
torist to Jail for 80 days or more, and
, probably result in his right to drive
an automobile in Washington being
revoked summarily. many pedestrians
of all ages and all stations walked
helter- -skelter, sublimely oblivious to
the warning screech of the guardian
policemen's whistle or the position of
his semaphore.
Every traffic officer in Washington
now has been instructed by Inspector
Albert ]. Headley, chief Of the Traffic
Bureau, to sound a warning blast on
his whistle, stopping all vehicles, and
then permit sufficient time to elapse
before sounding the second. which
moves traffic, to allow not only pass
ing vehicles, but also passing pedes-
trians, to be out of harms way before
the traffic could reach them
Police Watching Rule.
An impersonal survey of the past
few days has proved that most of the
officers are doing this to the best of
their ability under existing condi-
tions. Some yet need to be warned
that they must think of the pedes-
trian as well as the vehicle before
opening the signal and releasing the
stream of traffic. But the majority
are bending every effort to comply
with the spirit and letter of their in
structions.
Trials have proved that it is not al
together possible to set an arbitrary
length of time during which traffic
must not move in any direction Diff
ferent conditions govern different
corners For instance, three or four
seconds may be sufficient warning at
one corner, but perhaps 10 seconds
would not be sufficient at another. On
rarer occasions no interval is essen
tial during those infrequent periods
when there is a lull in both pedes-
trian and vehicular traffic.
The orders given to every officer now
are: Sound a warning blast on Your
whistle stopping all traffic. Allow suf-
ficient time to elapse to have your cross
walks and intersection cleared to the
point where there will be no dangerous
situations when the streams of traffic

Interpretation of Treaty Cause. of
Trouble.
BY CONSTANTINE BROWN.


BY Cable to The Star and Chicago Daily News.
BRUSSELS, october 29.-The Brit
ish and Turkish dispute over
the Mosul boundary was caused
by the rare gift of the Turks in in
terpreting treaties in their own way.
Under the clauses Of the Lausanne
treaty the Turk submitted to arbi-
tration by the League of Nations the
question Of the future of Iraq and
the Turkish frontiers, while. commits
ions we're dispatched into Mesopo-
tamia.
The Turks advanced with a few
battalions into the territory which
was hitherto considered no mans
land, and there siginfied to the Mes
torians, who were Christians, and
therefore, friendly to the British, that
with or without the leagues consent
they were to remain Turkish citizens.

EARSETTLEMENT.

Dispute.

By the Associated Press.
BRUS ELS. October 2y.-A COM
plete settlement of the controversy
between Great Britain and Turk ey
over the status quo frontier between
Turkey and Mosui viii be reached
at the afternoon session today of the
council of the League of Nations, In
'pecial session here, 1t is expected
by league officials. ~-,..-s
This opinion, it was explained. was
ton of the controversy, work ed out
by DR.. Hjalmar Brantins. the Swed-
ish premier, would fix a frontier line
acceptable both to Great Britain and
Turkey pending settlement of the
larger problem of sovereignty over
.Iosui.
Alberto NJ. GUAM, Uruguayan Min
lister TO Belgium, and Count Quinones
lie Leon, Spanish Ambassador to
France, played important roles in
effecting the settlement, cooperating
actively with DR.. Branting in in
ducing the British and Turks to ac-
cept.
The expected solution saves the
prestige both of Britain and Turkey
and, while insisting upon the justice
of their respective claims. the repre-
sentatives of both nations apparently
have bowed to the compromise solu-
tion suggested by the councils arbi-
traitors.
Avert Armed Conflict.
Britain and Turkey will be asked
to regard the new compromise line
as a sort of neutral zone pending
final adjudication of the sovereignty
over Mosul. so that the danger OF
armed conflict between the local
lorces of both nations may be
avoided.
The neutral commission of investi-
cation, appointment of which was an
nounced last night, probably will pro-
Ceed in the near future to the MoSul
district to make an inquiry into the
local aspect of the controversy. The
commission later will report to the
council when that body is ready to
take up the problem of the Mosul
sovereignty.

bers of the commission. is a former

this afternoon at the headquarters
"i the three political parties, was the
f'&'urc OF the halluting in the
Rriiish general election
official reports indicated that an
s" per cent poll might be expected
In 4 majority of the constituencies.
The reports Indicated that women
were casting a greater number OF
votes than ever before, being especial
ly active in the East and South Lon
don working class districts.
The party leaders admitted that
the w"mcn's vote. which had been al.
entirely unknown quantity, was the
feature OF the day. adding great.
To the uncertainty as to the tina
outcome. This was especially tru.
III the provincial constituencies
where all the parties had devoted
an important part of their campaign

the woman voters.
Candidates Active.
Although the campaign proper
closed last night. political leaders
continued to eXhort the voters Oh
behalf of their candidates at many
inpromptu meetings held today to
catch the lagEards.
Winston Churchhill created some
thing of Il sensation in his division
of EppnS when he drove throughout
the entire constituency in "a coach
drawn by eight horses, decorated
with blue ttreamers and with horn
blowing merrily as his supporters
shouted: Vote for Churchill"
While some of the Laborites today
expressed confidence that the result
would show the people favorable to
their remaining in power. the general
opinion was that the government
would be repudated. The respective
strength of the parties in the new
house, however. was subject on
which TO political observer would
venture to give public prediction. ~
Only the returns will tell whether
the Conservatives have been able to
regain the majority over all other
parties necessary to put them back
into office and bring to an end the
arrangement whereby they and the
Liberals until recently allowed the
Laborites to run the government.
Up to d few days ago public inter
oereSt in the outcome seemed apethet-
ie but the sensational eleventh. our
publication of the alleged Zinovien
letter urging the British Communists
to intensity propaganda and organi-
zatioa o. units within the British
Army and Navy served to fan the
sentiment against the LaboriteS be-
cause of their reputed lenient atti-
tude toward the Communists. The
true effect of this development cannot
be sauged accurately in advance. If
straw votes can be taken as indicat-
ing which way the wind blows, the
strength of the Liberals, headed by
former Premiers Asquith and Lloyd
George. is on the wane. and that of
the Conservatives and Laborites both
is increasing.

New Haven, May @s.--The differ llnquent on probation as compared with support in an institution is ! quite an item. Charles l.. Chute, sec rctary Of the National Probation assn- ciation, said at a luncheon held at the lawn club here yesterday at which the State Child Welfare association was the host. He said'it costs about SioO a year to conine the individual and only about s2l year to super wise him on probation.
 Mir. Chute said that probation is the best method of handling a delinquent, either minor or adult, as well as inc cheapest with the additional ady8n- tage of putting him on his feet" The s2l q year cost of supervising in- cludcd the salary of full-time proba- ton officer and clerical assistants to- ecthcr with other overhead expense, tho speaker said. He claimed keen attention to his analysis of costs when hc advocated as the minimum salary of trained probation officer sS,0o0 with the scale running up to 5000.

 Prof. Hans zozher. in an address before the German Chemical Society, asserted that he frequently had made artificial wings which would make "any butterfly .n the world turn green or black with envy"
 The coloring in real butterfly wings is brought about by light reflections on the same principal which causes soap bubbles to glisten colorfully in the rays of light. Prof. Zozher sx- plained that he used resin as the basis in his experiments.
