HRPOPLACED UNDER ARREST
 FOR BRINGING WOMANTOU 5.

Commissioner Curran at Ellis 1s- land, Mir. Whites action had the approval of Commissioner General Husband of the immigration bu- reau with whom he conferred after the Curran report reached Wash ington.
 Will Not Stop Bout
 The expectation is that the war rant, sent to New York by tele- graph, will be served on Firpo to- day, and that every step will be taken to expedite his hearing. His accusers, headed by Canon w. S. Chase of New York, are seeking to secure final action in the case in time to prevent Firpo from meet ing Harry Wills, the American ne- gro heavyweight in their sched- uled bout in Boye's thirty acres at Jersey City on September II.
 Firpo's attorneys are expected however, to take the case into the courts if an actual deportation order is issued, and officials here think it improbable that deportation can be accomplished before the date set for the fight.
 Acting Secretary White said today that Firpo would be required to at tend the hearings in his case before the board of immigration inspectors and that he must appear in person to be questioned. He can be repre- sented by his attorneys at all other times.
 The formality of serving the war rant in New York may be waived and Firpo's attorneys may volun- tarily produce him and make bond.
 After the immigration inspectors at New York complete their hearing and submit a report with their rec ommendation to the labor depart ment here, the board of review, an advisory body to the secretary. will condense the transcript of the evil dence and submit 1t to Acting Sec retary White, who will review the case and hand down decision on the question of deportation. If a de- portation order then is issued, Firpo doubtless will ask the courts for a writ of habeas, ,vorpus.

pelled to abandon the search. In spite of a loan of 30,000 gallons of oil from the destroyer Coughlan at Labrador the Richmond, with an oil capacity of 5OO,OOO gallons, had only 5000 gallons when she reached the tanker Brazos at Bay of Islands, N. F. One of the de- stroyers reached Bay of Islands with only 1000 gallons"
 The Richmond held stations on every leg of the transatlantic flight except one, that along the west coast of Greenland from Fred ericksdal to Ivigtut. She picked up Wade and Ogden after their plane, the Boston, had drifted about for six hours off the Farce Islands,
 It WAS also Richmond luck that found Locatelli and his compan- ions one dark Sunday night off southeastern Greenland whom a signalmau on the cruisers bridge picked out the flash of tiny hand lamp on the drifting plane many miles away. The Richmond saw the fliers off at Houton Bay. Orkney Islands, and welcomed them at Reykiavik, Iceland, Ice Tickle. La brador and Boston.
 Nearly HOO miles was added 10 the Richmond's itinerary when she was compelled to return from Cape Farewell, Greenland, to Reykjavik, Iceland, with spare parts for the planes. and the search for IocateI- lt added several hundred miles to ths flagship's record.
 The cruiser Raleigh interrupted her shakedown cruise in Europe to join the convoy, received the fliers at Hornafjord, Iceland, and dam aged two propelers in the floating ice while rcconnoiterinE the Gteen- land coast near Angmagsalik. The Richmond's single important cas- ualty was the loss of scout plane which burned on the vessels deck while being prepared to go out in search of the Italian fliers.
 Distances covered by the several ships in connection with the flight are: Richmond S,1O0 miles; Mil waUkee 3,5S5; Raleigh 3,40o; Bar ry $500; Coughlan $500; McFar- land 5000: Lawrence 2,7OO; Charles Aushurn 2,70o; Reid 2.2oe; Bill ingsley 2.20O; BraZos 1,4lo; De troit 9S0.

CHILEAN CABINET
 NEWLY FORMED
Soldiers Granted Wish for Po-
 itical Reorganization
FAIL TO ADJUST PAY
Military Objects to Bill Giving Legis- lators Salaries While They Are Neglected.-Three Days of Excite ment Ended by Move.
By The Associated Press.

By The Associated Press.
 Santiago, Chile, Setp. s.-A new cabinet was in power in Chile today. having been sworn in late last night after the days of excitement. The crisis was precipitated by army of- ficers who demanded the constitu- ton of a non-political ministry and other reforms.
 The cabinet is headed by General Luis Altamarino as minister of the interior. The other members are:
 Minister of Foreign Affairs-Emil- iano Figuerca, former Ambassador to Argentina.
 Justice and Instruction-Greogor- io A. Untegui, Rector of the Univer- sity of Chile.
 War-General Bennett.
 Public Works--Angel Guarello, former Minister of Justice and the most prominent democrat in the country.
 The events leading to the re-or- ganization of the government began when a number of young army off cers visited the senate and voiced their disapproval of the passage of a bill granting salaries to the legis- lators while parliament failed to ap- Nf @ ha army and the working class.
 President Alessandr thereupon summoned the commanders of the regiments and demanded a written expression of the officers aspira- tions. These, when summoned, re- quested the formation of a non-poli- tical cabinet, mediate veto of the bill providing salaries for legisla- tors, prompt passage of the budget law, payment of the public employees who have received no money for several months and the adoption of measures now pending in congress for the welfare of the working peo- pie.
 The president accepted the written petition, as did both chambers of parliament In special session, and the cabinet resigned.
 When the news spread yesterday that the demands had been favor ably received and the cabinet was being re-orgaplzed popular demon strations of approval took place be- fore the Moneda Palace and the Parliament building. Advices from the provinces say public opinion there is favorable to the anti-politi- cal movement

Indian Delegate opens Morning ses- sion, Talking in Same Strain as Those Who Have Gone Before Panaman Describes Pact in The U. S. Which Allows Money to Be Saved For Sanitation.

By Tho Associated Press
 Geneva, Sept. 6.-Judging by the ovation accorded the sentiments ex- pressed by Nicholas Politis of Greece after his address in the debate on the reduction of armaments in the assembly, of the league of nations to- day, the sentiment of the assembly distinctly favors a system under which compulsory arbitration will always be accompanied by effective guarantees of security.
 Poitis, a former foreign minister of Greece, is an authority on inter- national law. When he resumed his seat after concluding his remarks Premier Herriot Of France and all the members of the French delega- ton warmly wrang his hand while Mineichiro Adachi, of Japan, who with Elihu Root helped frame the protocol of the present world court of justice, left the Japanese bench on the other side of the auditorium and rushing up warmly felicitated Politis.
 Prime Minister Macdonald later called a conference of the British delegation and Premier Herriot con- voked the French group. It was an- nounced that some concrete resolu- ton, placing the entire problem of arbitration, disarmament, and secur- ity before the assembly. probably would be introduced at the after noon session when it was likely that Mir. Macdonald and M. Herriot would both speak.

Magrudcr, commanding the light cruiser divisions which had charge of patrol operations, announced to- day as the work of the navy Tn protecting the flight came to an end here. Among the 12 navy ships which took stations along the flight course the scout cruiser Richmond. Admiral Magruder's flagship, was first in distance covered, cruising more than S,100 miles. The de- stroyer Barry stood second with B. 500 miles.
 Contending with fog, pack ice and bergs, conditions almost con- stant in sub-Arctic waters, the ships carried out the tedious and arduous duties assigned to them with accuracy and promptness. the admiral said The long delay of the fliers in Iceland due to ice con- ditions on the east coast of Green land brought about a serious fuel shortage, while food supplies on many of the patrol vessels dwindled to sea stores" when the cruise stretched many weeks beyond the period provided for.
 Several times it looked as though the flight would have to be discontinued because of the fuel shortage on our ships" Admiral Magruder said. When We were searching for Locateli off the coast of Greenland We were almost at the end Of our fuel resources and in 8 few. days would have been com-

MOTOR CAR INCREASES
CLOTHING SALES

The wall of the tailors that nobody
bought clothes any more since they
took to motoring, for which any old
suit was good enough, has been
choked to splutter by bulletin
from the International Association of
Garment Manufacturers.
This organization finds that the
motor car increases the sale Of sport
clothes, due to the increased use Of
country clubs, which comes from the
motor; reports an increased use Of
camping clothes, due to the enormous
number of "tin can tourists" and
greatly increased use of fine gar
ments for social purposes which, be-
fore the motor, could not be indulged
in for lack of time.
There is no industry, no occupa-
ton, no man, woman or child in the
country, not affected favorably by
the increased mileage of good roads.

spot indeed. God pity it! What COM
munty ideals and heart can be pro-
NOTED or maintained with no reg
ular and dependable organ to voice
them? What community sympathy
and fellowship can be developed
where there is no clearing house for
the heart-where there is no com
mon parkway where the myriad
hopes and discouragements, joys and
heartaches, successes and disasters
may be blended into that intangible,
the very real, thing or substance that
we call community spirit?
Every community feels the need
for a good, level headed newspaper.
It has its work clearly defined for
if it fulfiils its mission it deserves
the loyal support of the town and
the country round. Such a paper
can render Invaluable service in
breaking down that foolish but age
old barrier between town and coun-
try by keeping leach class supplied
with the point of view Of the other.
After all, folks are about the
same whether in town or country,
and the country roads are but ex-
tensions of the city streets.
