INVENTOR ENDS
 LIFE WITH GUN
Prof. E. J. Christie Prefers Death To Spending Rest Of
 Life In Asylum

CAMDEN, N. |, Feb. 6,-Prof. E J. Christie of Marion, Iowa, inventor of a, gyroscobic unicycie, which he hoped could attain a speed of 25O miles an hours committed suicide in a hotel here today.
 Christie's body was, found on the floor fully dressed with a pistol in his hand. On the bureau was a note ad- dressed to Coroner Robert C.. Schroeder of Camden which read:
 Il have taken my own life because would rather die now than spend the rest of my life in an insane asylum. Kindly prepareo my body and notify my brother, Honorable John T. Chris tie. Marion, Iowa.
 In his pocket was found Philadel- phia newspaper clipping describing his work on the gyroscopic unicycle in a workship in Philadelphia.
 Mir. Christie was about B years old.
 Possessed of Funds
 Prof. Christieo had been at the hotel since September. He lived quietly and seemed to be possessed of funds. He was graduate of Iowa univer- sity and was friend of the late Char les P. Steinmetz, electrical wizard. He served as an instructor in mathematics, astronomy and chemistry inS Indiana Normal university and later was on the faculty of St. Johns College, An napolis, Md, and Tasting College, Neb. He was also for short time president of Garfield university, Wichite, Kan sas. During the war he did experi- mental work for the government.
 During his lessons in astrohomy he used a gyroscope made especially for him to demonstrate the rotation and momentum of the earth. This led him to speculate on the possibility of apply ing the principle of the gyroscope to some new formation of locomotion. He constructed his first model at Cedar Rapids, Iowa, in 1919.
 On his arrival here more than a year ago Prof Christie said that if his ex- pectations came true, methods of trans portation would be completely changed by .ae principle of his gyroscopic uni cycle.
 Its design, he pointed out, was

IDEA OF SECRET RHINELAND PACT
 BRNGSA DENIAL
London Papers Create Sensation About Wilson
 Clemenceau Agreement

>LONDON, Feb. 6.-London news papers are making a sensation out of Mir Lloyd Georges statement in an interview with The Associated Press sunday, last, that an agreement exist ed between Mir. Wilson and NJ. Clem- enceau regarding the French occupa- tion of the Rhineland of which the then English premier was unaware m til the French government sought per. mission to publish the memoranda.
 The Evening Standard in & double column story refers to Mir. Lloyd Georges statement as "a disclosure which could not easily have been made public during Mir. Wilson's lifetime"
 The British foreign office, however which is preparing an explanation, throws cold water on the story by say ing that the so-called secret agreement was nothing more than a routine mem- orandum which the French government vas seeking to publish in ordinary course.
 Officials expressed the belief that Mir. Lloyd Georges statement has be- come. greatly exaggerated since it was first made to the Associated Press. They. point out that the document to which he referred as having been se- cret is only one of many memoran- da exchanged among the big four during the protracted negotiations re- garding the Rhineland. Each of the allied premiers outlined his views on the Rhineland issue St the time and exchanged memoranda with his col leagues.
 PARIS DENIES IT
 PARIS, Feb. 6.-Declaring that no secret pact between NJ. Clemenceau and Woodrow Wilson had been concluded, as alleged by Mir. Lloyd George, the French foreign office issued brief statement tonight, setting forth that the French government reserved its re- ply to the allegations of Mir. Lloyd George until it was in possession of the exact text of the former premier's s utterance. In the meantime part of the text of Mir. Lloyd Georges inter- view declaring that MT. Wilson and M. Clemenceau had made a secret agreement for the occupation of the Rhineland in the face of his opposi- tion reached Paris just when the cham Der of deputies was adopting resolu- tions of condolence on the death of the former president. The report ere ated sensation in the lobbies of the chamber, where the news was received through the Associated Press.

ALABAMA FARM
 WORK DELAYED
Good Progress In Other South ern States Reported By Agri-
 culture Department

WASHINGTON. Feb. 6.-Crop and weather conditions during the week ending yesterday were summarized by the department of agriculture today as follows:
 The week was characterized by un- usually mild weather for the season in practically all section of the country until near the close, when severe storm, accompanied by sleet, high winds and drifting snow, prevailed in the northwestern states and extended southward to the central plains and lower Mississippi valley.
 The temperature for the week as a whole averaged above normal in all sections except locally in Utah and Florida. East of the Mississippi freez- ing weather did not extend into the gulf and south Atlantic states, ex- cept in Mississippi, where it occurred as far south as Vicksburg.
 Precipitation was moderately heavy to heavy in the lower Mississippi and upper Mississippi valleys and rather heavy at the close of the week in some southeastern localities.
 Fair weather prevailed in the south during most of the week and sunshine was rather abundant. These condi- tions were more favorable for field work in that area and very good progress was reported as a rule though in some cases the soil continued too wet for proper working.
 Flowing and seeding of spring oats made generally good advance in Texas but all farm work was still backward in the eastern portion of that state. Rainfall was rather frequent in Ala bama, which delayed work consider ably but in other east gulf states out door operations made better progress than during preceding weeks. It was rather too wet in southern Florida, but spring planting, in general, .ad- vanced very well, while considerable preparations were made in the South Atlantic area.
 Two splendid tracts of redwood tim Der have been saved and funds estab- lished for the purchase of three more hy a California nrotpctiyp 1aayua

FIVE KEPT SECRET Four Women and Man Knew Box
 Peace Prize Winner.

NEW YORK, Feb. 6.-Five persons kept the secret of the identity of the Box peace prize winner and four of them were women. The man was Dr. Charles Herbert Levermore himself. Dr. Leyermore said today that on De- cember 26,. Miss Father Everett Lape, secretary of the American peace award, informed him of his success in the 5000 contest. One of Miss Lape's office associates also knew he had won, he said. Then he told his wife and his stenographer. The latter had typed the plan, anyway, he explained, and would have recognized it in the news papers. He pledged her to secrecy.
 "She must have done the same thing did" Dr. Levermore. said with a laugh. "that is, tell a number of whop- pers.''

WASHINGTON, Feb. 6.-Prospects G. that the.

While the rules committee had not finally decided upon the re- quest of Representative Mckenzie, author of the Ford bill, to give the bill an early right of way, it was generally felt today there was little chance that the House program could be so ar- ranged.
