stores every month. The prices OBJ

stores, according to the Bureau OF
Labor Statistics. Several representa-
tive stores Of the chain-store groups
operating in Washington are included
in those from which prices are oh

the average workingman or the man

The larger stores catering to a spe-

saw the highest recorded food prices

since the war in 1921. Beginning late
in 1921 food prices again began TO

The increase in the average cost OF

C|TZENSARE URGED

Opposition to Return of As

Declared Ingratitude.

With the election scheduled to take

GRAFTON of Citizens Associat tions came
out today in appeals to their asso-
ciates to re-elect Jesse c. Suter presi-
dent.
George A. Kicker. delegate from
Kalorama Citizens Association. ad-
dressed a letter to all of the delegates,
calling attention to the many impor-
tant matters pending in which the
federation is actively engaged and
urging the members not to change
leadership in midstream.
Mr.. Kicker characterized President
Suter as d progressive and earnest
worker for the federation, and ex-
pressed the belief that he Is entitled
to more than one term.
William =. Torbert OF the Rhode
Island Avenue Association made public
a statement in which he deprecated
the opposition which had developed
against re-electing Mr.. Suter. Mr..
Torbert said he thought it would be
ingratitude not to give a second term
to a man who has worked as long and
induStriouSly for the federation as Mr..
Suter.
While not always in accord with
Mr.. Suter." said Mr.. Torbert, IT be-
lfeye In his honesty of purpose, his
constructive policies and his extra
ordinary energy, both mental and
physical. / believe the best interests
OF the federation dictate that he be
continued in Office for another term"
Supporters Of Mr.. Suter are also
pointing out that two terms has been
the general rule in the federation in
past years.
The group of delegates opposing Mr..
Suter have put forward Charles A.
Baker. a former president. for head
of the federation, and William Henry
White for vice president. Mr.. Baker
also is popular delegate in the fed.
Grafton. and it is expected the election
of officers will transcend all other bust
ness at the meeting tomorrow night.

DE JOUVENAI. CHOSEN.
Editor TO BE High Commissioner In
Syria, Says Report.

PARIS, November 6 CP).-It Is un-
derstood the French government has
decided to appoint Senator Henri de
Jouvenal, chief editor of the Matin, as
high commissioner for Syria.
The official announcement OF the ap-
pointment is expected 10 be made
shortly and NJ. JouVenal will leave
Paris TO take up his duties in Damas-
Gus at the earliest possible moment.
The Syrian situation, suddenly
sprung upon the unsuspecting Pain
leve cabinet by the parties of the
Right and Center in the Chamber OF
Deputies yesterday in the form of a
demand for immediate discussion of
the grave events in that country,
merely had the effect of rallying the
entire parties of the Left around the
wavering ministry and gave 1t an op-
portunity to score what will proba bly,
be the greatest parliamentary success
of it's career.
Premier Painleve refused to discuss
the situation until the arrival in Paris
of Gen. Sarrail, high commissioners In
Syria, who has been recalled, and
made 1t a question of confidence. He
was upheld by the chamber, 400 to 80.
The chamber fixed November 20 as
the date for the Syrian debate. Gen.
Sarrail himself will then appear be-
fore the parliamentary committees
NJ. Painleve once more gave the on
cial figures OF the French losses in
Syria since France accepted the
League of Nations mandate. He ad-
mitted that France had lost 6,S22 men,
killed. died of wounds or illness, or
missing but he produced figures de-
signed to show that nearly 10 per cent
of the losses occurred under the gov
arpp,ept of the Conservative md Right
parties.
As officially stated. the losses were,
1920, 2.192; 1921, 2,032; 1922, s3S 1928,
298: 1924, 239.
The losses for the period of Gen. Sar
rails tenure of office, which was par
ticularly under fire, were e24 from
January /, 1925, to October Is. The
losses since that date were not given

Continued from First PaEeJ
French negotiations having ended un.
satisfactorily.
From foreign quarters in Washing
ton today II was still evident there is
feeling that should the Italian ne
gotiations fall down, in all proba bility
there will be called in Europe a gen
eral conference to consider the whole
interallied debt problem.
From some American sources prior
to a meeting at the Treasury Of prin-
cipal figures from the two commits
sions there were Indications that the
outlook for u settlement was very
fair"
On the other hand, from other
sources, it was learned that some of
the negotiators felt gloomy to the
point of predicting that no settlement
was in sight.
The veil of secrecy which both the
Italians and Americans have thrown
around actual negotiations has kept
from the public any details as to the
actual progress.
Wide Gulf Exists.
Informality was understood to be
the outstand feature OF the pres
ent efforts to get together. and as no
offer has definitely been made before
a Joint session OF the two commits
sions. even though the first offer and
counter offer may have been far apart
it was considered that the negotia-
tions would proceed with earnest en-
deavor on the part of both to recon-
cile the differences. As a matter Of
fact, it was learned that though def
mite figures in the first Italian and

in the American commission was one
more likely to hold out for terms

5000 KLANSMEN
SECEDE FROM BODY
Arkansas Chapter to Form
New Order-Greater
Secrecy Planned.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
LITTLE ROCK, Ark. November G.
Declaring that efforts to induce James
A. Conner. grand dragon of the realm
of Arkansas, Knights of the ku klux
Klan. to resign have failed, and that
there has been a general loss Of con-
fidence in imperial officers, Little Rock
kIan. No. l. last night adopted a reso-
luton severing its connection with the
imperial office in Atlanta, and calling
for the formation OF a new organiza-
ton, to be known as "the Grand Clan
of America
The resolution was signed by p. H.
Baird, exalted cyclops OF the local
khan, who said that "all but four or
five of approximately 5000 members
attending the meeting voted for its
adoption" The action is said to have
followed several weeks Of internal diff
ferences in the order. The resolution
said it was decided to make the action
public so that there may be no guess
ing or speculation by the khan public
or the general public.
National Order Is Aim.
In regard to the resignation Of
the grand dragon, the resolution said
that his Usefulness was at an end,
and has been for many months, on ac-
count of inactivity as leader of the
State orga nization and because of loss
Of prestige" The local klan will sur
render it's charter to the imperial
office and cease all connection with
the general orga nization, the resolu
ton says.
The new organization Is to meet
here Monday night to complete de
tails of orga anization. II was said. He
said it was probable that the organi-
zation would be national in scope.
but that decision was left open for
then present.
More Secrecy Planned.
Two outstanding accomplishments
that are to be realized Immediately.
according to the resolution, are
greater secrecy and utter Danish
ment of the spirit Of monetary gain.
The new organization will start with
the knowledge that there may be
threats and hints of legal proceedings
by those who have profited
from our ng-suffering submission
the resolution concludes, adding that
this will not interfere with plans Of
the new clan.
1t was announced that the first
official act of the new Organization
would be to vote donation Of 81 900
to the Little Rock community fund,
to be paid during the coming year.

PLAN FOR STADIUM
GETS NEW IMPETUS
Sheriff. Lays Proposal Before
Chamber of Commerce
Committee.

Further steps in the direction OF pro-
viding a large stadium here in which
might be held national and interna-
tional competitions, such as the Army
and Navy foot ball classics and inter
national polo games, as well as the
Olympic series, were taken To-Day
when the matter was under discus
sion between Lieut.. Col. c. o. Sheriff.,
director of the office OF public oulld-
ing and public parks of the National
Capital and a special committee on
stadium of the Washington Chamber
of Commerce. This latter committee
consisted of NJ A. Leese, first vice
president; Ivan c. Weld, second vice
president; Robert y. Harper, former
president of the association and one
OF the prime movers In the conStruc-
ton of the Washington auditorium.
and Arthur +. Seymour, secretary of
the association.
Sheriff. Explains Plan.
The conference lasted for more
than an hour and a half. during
which, 1t was said, Col. Sheriff. laid
before this committee his idea as to
the means of providing such
stadium as well as furnishing SuS
geStionS for providing the necessary
site and the funds for its building.
The committee of the chamber is
expected to report the results of this
conference to the main body for fur
ther action.
Col. Sheriff.. author of this new
plan TO provide the National Capital
with a place for holding national and
international games, has not as yet
seen fit to make public his plan in
detail. He has submitted it to repre-
sentatives of local organizations. in
Guiding the Washington Board of
Trade. the Merchants and Manufac
turers Association. the Federation OF
Citizens Associations and the Cham
ber of Commerce.
Will Publish Plan
One result of the conference this
morning. II was learned. is the pro-
posal of a plan to lay the whole mat
ter before the public through these
local bodies. Col. Sheriff. said he was
going TO prepare a statement outlin-
ing his proposal in detail and within
a few days would start presenting il
to the civic bodies, and in that way
get it before the public generally. 1t
is probable that the Chamber of Com
merce will extend to him an invita-.
ton to appear before it and lay the
stadium question before a meeting of
that body.
