CANCER INCREASE
 IS LAID TO TAR
French Official Seeks To Halt
 Use As Road Material

PARIS, June Do tarred roads cause cancer? City Councillor Jouse- lin of Paris, maintains they do. Point. ing to the greatly increased mortality from cancer in recent years, he ob- serves that it is particularly prevalent among workers handling the tar. For this reason he recently demanded that the tarring of roads should cease in the Department of the Seine. h
 The board of health referred the question of Professor Vincent, an emin,, ent physician, who while admitting that the tar products, especially when handled hot, appeared to cause cancer, hesitated to affirm that the dust from tarred roads had a like effect. He further observed that the exact nature of cancer was unkoMn to science.
 After hearing other medical experts who emphasized the complexity of the question, the board decided to continue its inquiry.

ALLEGED AK MAN
 PLEADS INSANITY
Frank Owens To Face Trial June 16-Physi-
 clans To Watch Case

Pleas of not guilty and not guilty by reason of insanity were entered by Frank Owens, negro, alleged ax wield- CT, when formally arraigned Saturday morning before Judge William D. Fort on charge of robbing l.. NJ. Watkins and Richard Warner after attacking them with an ax two weeks ago.
 In setting the negro's trial for June 16, the first day of June capital week, Judge Fort appointed Dr. E. II. Wy man and Dr. Joe Leland as. special physicians to keep the defendant under close observation while awaiting trial and form opinions on his mental and physical condition for use as evidence when the trial gets under way.
 Owens was indicted by the Jefferson county grand jury May 26 after that body had been called in special session by Socilitor Davis; and his trial was set, by special request of the solicitor, for May 2S, but the defendants phys ical condition was found to be such that Judge Fort postponed it until June l6. At the hearing, physicians testified that his temperature showed wide variations, being at one time sub normal and at others several degrees above normal.
 At Hillman hospital. where the two alleged victims were taken immediate ly after the attack. it was stated Satur- day afternoon that they probably would be obliged to remain at the hospital in definitely. Doubt was expressed as to their ability to testify at Owens trial, although it is understood that the state is depending largely upon their testi- mOny to obtain conviction.

AUTHORITIES NIP FORGERY PLANS
Nine Buffalo Banks In- tended Victims Of
 J. c. Collins

BUFFALO, N. r., June "A wholesale attempt to defraud Buffalo banks was nipped early today when James Calhoun Collins, long sought fOrger, was arrested by q postal inspec- tor and detectives.
 Collins, who has a half dozen aliases had planned te cash bad checks at nine Buffalo banks this morning, the inspec- tor said. A grip containing the bad checks on the local banks was found in his room.
 A countrywide search has been made for Collins for the last three or four years. Thomas J. Penney, Jr., assist ant United States attorney, announced that Collins had confessed passing bad checks for more than $100,000. He is charged with using the mails with in tent to defraud.
 The ruse used by Collins, the detec- tives stated, consisted in writing to an official. of bank, preferably a vice president, asking for an interview, say ing that the matter was one that could not be stated in letter. When he received the reply he would practice the signature. They said he would then take check on an Out-of-tOwn bank and make it out for sum ranging from $500 to $3,O00, using the counter felt signature as an indorsement.
 At the bank he would present a check without indOrser ent at the pay ing teller's window and when it was turned back ask for the official with whom he had correspOnded. He would then walk over to the officials desk talk for few moments about the weather or some other subject, never mentioning the letter or the check. re- turn to the teller and present the dupli- cate with the officials indOrsement.
 The nine checks that were to have been passed in Buffalo this morning were made out on bank in Nashville and contained inducements said to be perfect in detail as to the signatures. The checks tOtalled $20,000.
 The inspector said Collins had worked the scheme in Nashville, Mem

BISHOP CANDLER
 FORESEESDlSCORD IN UNIFICATION
DeplOres sAcrid Personal ities' In Discussion
 Of Proposal

ATLANTA, Ga, June 7.-(By As sOciated Press. )-"Acrid personalities should be excluded from discussions of the proposed plan of unificatiOn of the Methodist Episcopal church, north and south, as ''unseemly, especially so for bishop of the church." declared Warren A. Candler of Atlanta. south ern Methodist bishop, in statement issued here tonight.
 Certainly the matter now before the church is far too serious for the in diligence of personal filings" the bishop said. But there are some things must say ip justice to myself which are also germaine to the discussion of the important issue'
 May Be Out Of Harmony
 ''It is possible that may be ont of harmony with my church with ref erence to the proposed plan of unifi- cation," Bishop Candler declared, but do not believe it.
 My church, through it's general con- ference has expressed itself as favOring the general principles of unification but it has had no chance to express it. self on the defective and dangerous plan now under discussion.
 II have made both arguments and appeals that it be given fair chance to consider deliberately this plaa' and then express itself on it but my argu- ments and appeals have not availed. Y
 The bishop said it is generally known that he believes the called session of to consider unificatiOn is unwise for al,,,rah ferences and without authority If law.
 Has Letters
 Bishop Candler said he is receiving every day letters from influential min isters and members of the church which declare he is ''in harmony witk the sentiment" of his church.
 Preachers and laymen, representa- tive men in Alabama, Georgia. the Car Olinas, Louisiana, Texas. Oklahoma. Virginia, Tennessee, Kentucky. West Virginia and Maryland have written me expressing the strongest opposition to the plan." the statement said. They may all be mistaken about the mind of the church concerning the matter and 1 may be out of harmony with my church, but l do not believe it.
 The statement sets out that Bishop Candler opposes nasty calling of gen eral conference, but says he does not fear to find out the real thought. and wishes of his people after they have been given an opportunity to consider the matter.
 Bishop Candler's statement summed up his objections to the proposed uni ficatiOn plan as follows:
 ''The plan gives the Methodist Epis- cOpal church, nOrth,-sO much advantage over our church that naturally they leaped to seize the prize which they thought they saw in sight. apparently forgetting all other considerations.
 The plan does not eliminate any overlapping of work nor any friction between the. two churches"
 The statement cites sections of the proposal to substantiate these con- clusiOns.

3 Days h Wilds Of Park

 The three adyenturers, children of Oscar Anne, Sr., left home Wednes-. day for school. When they did not put in their appearance at supper time, general police alarm was sent out.
 According to the children's story, they decided on their way to school that they would go camping for while. Charles, who is the leader, knew fine place to camp and so the young nomads set out.
 Charles took them to an abandoned shack in one end of the park and they all declared it was ''swelf' place. Then the little matter of food-came

SUMNER SEES FORD VICTORY
 N.DECEMBER
Sheffield Real Estate Man Goes To Detroit For
 Conference.
Washington Bureaul

WASHINGTON, D. G.. June T. After interviewing the President, the Secretary of War. many members of the Senate, and others in authority. Charles Sumner, we'll known real estate operator of Sheffield, declares today that in December the Henry Ford offer for Muscle Shoals will be accepted.
 Il came to Washington uncertain of the result" he said. T am uncertain no longer. The bulk of the Senatorial opposition is based on causes easily to be removed. Politics pulls this man this way, and that man that way. There will be no politics to disturb the situation in the fall.
 II am inclined to believe that the President, perhaps in delicate man. short session. Other instrumentalities will be at work. At any rate, l am confident of the outcome"
 Leaves For Detroit
 Mir. Sumner left Washington tonight for Detroit. where he will pay his third visit in recent months to Henry Ford. As to what he would bring to the attention of the manufacturer. he did not disclose. It is thought. how ever, that he will inform Mir. Ford that prospects. in his judgment, are better than they have ever been, and that it would be simply playing into the hands of the Alabama Power com pany, were he. during the recess, to withdraw his offer.
 ''I have every reason to believe that Mir. Ford will stand pat" said Mir. Sumner. II am inclined to the belief that he would be willing to make cer- tain concessions in that opposition, now existing, might be removed. He could safely guarantee to disseminate surplus power. as he has publicly promised to do. Such guarantee would bring again into the fold such men as Senator Capper of Kansas, chief of the farm bloc, and Senator Ransdell of Louisiana
 Pleased At Resolution
 Mir. Simmer was especially delighted with the resolution put through the Senate by Senator Oscar w. Under wood making Muscle Shoals the con tinuing business beginning December &
 That resolution" said he, brought the long litigation to a head It was the result of signal Outgeneraling of Senator George w. Norris of Ne braska, principal opponent of the Ford offer, who entertained hope that the short session could be wasted as was the long session. The resolution means, further. that the fight will be continued until completed. For it is specifically provided that Muscle Shoals cannot be- removed from the Senate without unanimous consent. Senator Underwood, for one. and there will be many others, will see that unanimous consent is not obtained"
 MT. Sumner spent many hours while here with Representative E. B. AL mon of the Muscle Shoals district, and J. w. WOrthingtOn, local representa- tive of MT. Ford.
