BoBBED TREsSES SAFE,
HAIR DRESSERS SAY

ATLANTIC CITY, Sept. 1O.-The
bobbed.haired girl is not in such a
precarious position as Humpty.
dumpty, who could not be put to.
gether again, according to reports
at the National Hairdressers' Asso.
citation, in convention here.
Although short hair has become
passe, for those wishing to follow
the latest decree OF fashion there Is
a solution to the problem. The
effect Of long hair can be produced
with natural hair pieces pinned on
in a manner that best suits the
individuals profile and figure. Golf
fures high or low, waved or drwan
straight back, can be accomplished
with perfectly natural results.
The arrangement of the hair can
be changed as often as a hat or
gown. For sports wear, matinees
and teas the bobbed head is per.
fectly proper. In the evening a
more elaborate couture is preferred,
and this is easily executed with the
aid Of few hair pins. a net, deft
touches and the hair pieces.

tiers, all of whom are drawn from
the social courts familiar to the
man or woman of the world.
The plot has to do with an "oc-
topus of finance" The plotters,
therefore, are all persons of abun-
dant wealth.

bear striking resemblances to per-
sons closely connected with Mr..
Gibson's three matrimonial ven
lures.
His wives were respectively the
granddaughters of Marshall Field
and the late Senator James Nc
MILAN. of Michigan, and a former
wife of Alex Pratt and daughter
of Park Benjamin.

Mrs. Peter Larson was rumored to
be impending this autumn.

ANTIETAM BATTLEFIELD, Ma,

ANTIETAM BATTLEFIELD Nd,
Sept. 10. - The marine force en-
camped on this historic battlefield
preparatory to the realistic enact.
ment of the battle Of Antietam on
Friday before distinguished audi.
ence, are laying plans to pay hon.
age to the world filters.
It was announced today that
every one of the twenty-five air

escort planes win sound their
sirens, drop bombs, flowers and
confetti and let the fliers know

with them.
Frost was reported in the low
places here today, and the boys got
warmed up rehearsing for the big
battle Friday. In spite of the
heavy storms, which have visited

hours the Marine camp has still
preserved its record for good luck
in connection with the weather.
1t is reported that a flock of
buzzards in the vicinity Of the
camp have learned to initiate the
tactics Of the airplanes. The avia.
tors, who are responsible for the
information, contend that these
birds have watched the evolutions
of the planes with great interest,
and have been seen to adopt for
nation flying such as is practiced
by the Marines aviators and also
to perform the most intricate
stunts" which form part of
the training Of the Marine aviators.

BERLIN IS HIT HARDEST
BY GERMAN CRIME WAVE

BERLIN, Sept. 10.---Berlin was hit
hardest by the German crime wave.
During the last year no less than
a hundred thousand crimes have
been brought to the notice of the
Berlin police. according to statistics
issued by Berlin police .headquar,
ters. Half of all cases are thefts
of various shades. Police returns
of 1923 show an alarming increase
of crimes against 1922 reports.
The increase of crimes in 1923 is
attributed to the demoralizing Of.
feet OF the initiation period, which
reached it's climax in the preceding
year. 1t is generally assumed that
with the return to normal currency
and decreasing unemployment Law.
breaking cases win be considerably
reduced.

j. s. To OPPOSE
WAR NOTE BY
GERMANY
DisavowaI Of Guilt for HOSTILE
ties Is Against Treaty,
Officials Say
By H. X. REYNOLDS,
International News Service.

Although not officially advised Of
tAe intent Of the Berlin government,
the United States looks with dis
favor upon the German plan to
send notes to the allied powers
denying responsibility for the world
war, it was learned here today.
Great Britain, France, aad Bel,
alum have already made repre-.
sensations to Berlin in hope Of dis
suading German officials from issu-
ing the note, which Is understood to
have been drafted ready for delivery
to the powers which signed the Yer
sailles treaty.
The United States as yet has
taken no action looking to the head.
ing off Of the German note. but
agrees with the British. French. and
Belgium governments that no good
purpose would be served by such
a disavowaI on the part OF Ger
reparations settlement in accord
ance with the Dawes plan might
be jeopardized thersby.
Attitude in Doubt.
Whether or not this Government
will join with other powers in max
ing representations to Germany
against the proposed note could not
be determined here today, as State
Department officials ere desirous Of
getting the matter settled amicably
without stirring up a row among
the governments concerned, and do
not like to discus the situation for
publication.
Ambassador kellogg at London is
keeping in touch with the situation,
however, so that this Government
can act promptly when the time Is
ripe.
1t is fully expected in diplomatic
circles that the United States would
get a copy of the German disa-
vowal note along with Great Brit
ain, France, Belgium and other
powers.
Admitted in Treaty
This Government is not signatory
to the Versailles treaty, due to the
failure Of the Senate to ratify the
document, but the separate treaty
between the United States and Ger.
many, concluded early in the Hard
ing Administration, is based, the
same as the Versailles treaty. on
the admission by Germany of re-
sponsibility for the war.
At the present stage Of develop
ments, officials here were unable to
say if the status of the $3.50, 200, 900
worth of American war claims
against Germany would be changed
by the German denial of war guilt,
but it was learned that this ques.
ton might be involved, thus giving
the United States additional cause
for alarm.

POISON GAS USED TO RoUT
JAP BEETLES FROM LINKS

RIVERToN,' N. j.. Sept. 10. -
Poison gas is being used in an
effort to drive the Japanese beetles
from the grounds Of the Riverton
Golf Club. Carbon disulphide is
the mixture. An examination of
two of the putting greens recently
revealed that just below the sur
face there were about 1000 grubs
and eggs to the square yard. Sim.
liar conditions are said to exist
on the golf courses at Tavistock
and Moorestown.
Putting green's are especially at.
tractive to the beetles because the
grass is finer, and constant water
ing keeps the ground so moist
that the pests can penetrate 1t
readily and deposit their eggs.
