NEW YORK LEADER
 REFU7ES COPELAND
Denies Democrats in State Lack
 Proper Directing Force

Syracuse, N. Y, Jan. S.--Denial that the democratic party upstate is suffering from Hack of leadership" as charged recently by Senator Royal s. Copeland, in his newspaper, was made here today by William H. Kelley, Onondaga county democra- tic leader, and recognized chieftain of the party of the Central New York district.
 As their real leader the democrats of upstate New York look to Gov ernor Smith, Mr. Kelley asserted, both by virtue of his office as gov ernor and because of his manifest popularity in several past elections" |" Without his approval or consent, the Syracuse democrat contends, there can be no change in leadership, nor are upstate democrats desirous of such a change.
 If Senator Copeland has in his mind party boss" Mir. Kelley add ed, "it might be well for him to un- derstand that the democratic party never had such a thing,
 "The democratic party upstate is not suffering from want of leader ship. at least 1t is not so badly in need of leadership as he would have us believe. Senator Copeland must remember there is a wide stretch of territory in York state above the Bronx. New York city is thorough ly populated and 1t is comparatively easy to effect a compact organization of any kind.
 "Up-state not only is the popula- ton widely scattered, but there is a different element in almost every community, and there would be great resentment if a man from one locality attempted to tell those from another how they should act politi- cally.
 'The last election should not be taken as a criterion of upstate dem- ocratic strength. The bulk of the independent vote in New York is upstate. Then too upper New York is strongly republican and has been since the Civil war. Leadership in the democratic party is not going to change the habits and customs of the people who for years have been accustomed to vote the republican ticket in national elections.
 Upstate New York has looked 10 the greater city for leadership since New York city became more strong ly democrat and upstate more re- publican"

The eagle, which is made up of Bulgaria, Chile, and Zanzibar, has a small red eye and blue lids. The best work, however Is in the borders and floral ornamentation. Here literally hundreds of pieces an eighth of an inch in size were fitted together to form beadwork and other compli- cated decorative forms, all being cut and glued so well that there is not single misft in the whole work, which has been placed under glass and framed.
 The interest in this piece attaches to it's novelty, for the stamps them selves, mostly of little value original ly, have been so mutilated that they are now worthless as individual specimens. MT. Khanzadian has q separate collection, mounted on cards, which contains stamps of a much better class, including rare old Western Australians and many scarce surcharged stamps issued in the Near East during and after the war. Peculiar interest attaches to pair of British one shilling stamps, bear ing King Edward WIS portrait, plainly cancelled, Buckingham Palace"
 Mir. Khanzadian is seeking to eX- hibit this frame at the convention of some philatelic society in the hope of bringing 1t to the attention of the stamp collecting public.

LONDON PRESS IS
 AIRING ITS VIEWS
Dissatisfied With AmeriCa'S
 War Claims
By Tho Associated Press.

By Tho Associated Press.
 London, Jan. S.-Dissatisfactio with Amerlca's claims for war loss es crops out again in todays news paper comment on the Paris fnan- cial conference, although several Of the editorial writers remain silent on the subject.
 The Westminster Gazette, regret ting that the conference meets in an unfavorabe atmospehere, says: "The attitude of the unHed States so easily lends itself to distortion as huckstering that 1t is difficult to expect very favorable consideration for it."
 Admitting that If a long period for laying the American claims is conceded 1t is hardly worth while troubling overly much about them. the paper nevertheless contends that the United States does not seem to have legal claim,-inasmuch as she
 ''The British offer of arbitration ton the claims question: was per- fectly reasonable" the paper con- tinues, 'and the American rejec- ton of the proposal is indefensible. If the allied conference should sup port the British contention, 1t Is dif- ficult to see how the United States could object"
 Tka hoiIty AfoiIS ie cerned chiefly with the inter-allied debt settlement, and it declares that the British funding agreement with the United States constitutes lone of the most serious obstacles to a sat- isfactory settlement in Paris"
 The paper also attributes the fact that France has hitherto ob- tained practically nothing in repara- ton from Germany" to the "vaclla- ton and weakness" of the British government, and maintains that "all the negotiations in Paris can result in nothing of importance unless it is clearly understood that what France pays must depend upon what Ger many pays"
 It reiterates it's view that "the British debt to America was in mo- wise a commercial one, but repre- sented money spent for the common allied cause in fight for freedom and life"
 The Daily Telegraph. in a rather | viction that "the allied governments will do their utmost to satisfy the re- quirement of Washington. where ! there appears to be a genuine will lingness to agree to a period of re- payment so extended as to trench as little as possible upon the sums recovered from Germany"

REJECTEDLOVEA AS KEY ID TRAGEDY
This Undoubtedly Is Reason for
 Wisconsin Shooting

Madison. Wis, Jan. S.-The req son for the shooting of Miss Lora Palmer, young teacher of romance languages in the University of Wis consin, and the suicide of Francis x. Bernard, Hibbing, Minn., chemist. was sought today in a score of let ters written in feminine hand found in Bernard's trunk at Hibbing.
 Miss Palmer, who received three bullets from Bernard's pistol, one of them in the abdomen, reused suffi- ciently last night to say: T helped him; he fell in love; l could not make up my mind to marry him." Phil La Toilette, district attorney, visited her last night but her con- ditton was so serious little informa- tion was obtained.
 In Bernard's pocket were found several letters and a note: "Moral: Never trifle with a mans love-"
 Bernard shot Miss Palmer yester- day morning while they were in French house, a campus home for girls studying French, where Miss Palmer was chaperone.
 Bernard divorced his wife a year ago, she said last night in Superior, Wis. She said he sought a recon ciliation last Sunday, and, failing, said he would kill himself.
 Miss Palmer became acquainted with Bernard while she was a teach CT of French in the Hibbing school. of Wisconsin, from which she was graduated, her Hibbing position was given Bernard upon her recommen- dation. Recently Bernard had sought a place in the same department with Miss Palmer at the university, but was refused because he did not have college degree. He was educated in chemistry in Europe. He was born in Sicily.
 The letters looked to for an ex- planation of his actions further than that pieced together by the Madison police, were mailed from Paris at the time Miss Palmer was a student there, and more recently from Madi- son. They were signed with differ cnt names, the police said, none bearing the signature of Miss Palm CT, but all were in the same hand writing and bore many affectionate phrases.
 Prosecutor La Toilette said an in- quest over Bernard's body probably would be held today. Bernard died from a bullet fired into his temple.

Also FaYorS Strict Enforcement
 Of Eighteenth
By The Associated Press.

Concord, N. H., Jan. S.-Enact- ment of a 4S-hour week law for women and minors in factories, viz ourous enforcement of the prohibit tion law, and ratification of the fed eral child labor amendment were urged by Governor John G. Winant today in his inaugural address be- fore the state legislature of New Hampshire.
 Governor Winant recommended that the legislature investigate the possibility of consolidating various state departments and urged the creation of 0 definite policy in con- nection with the development of water power. He called attention to the pledge of the republican party to reduce the poll tax.
 Governor Winant declared 1t as his opinion that the return of funds totalling approximately SS00,00O, il- legally collected under the 1919 legacy tax which was declared un- constitutional, must be met by a bond issue.
 He mentioned as a problem of ut most importance the proposal of the Boston and Maine railroad to discon- tinue 400 miles of trackage in New Hampshire and asked the legislature to empower him ito employ special counsel to protect the rights of the communities affected and see that justice Is done"
 Other recommendation included complete audit of the states books and an inventory of state property, the construction of new dormitory for the keene Normal school. an ar rangement to set aside a portion of the federal forests as game pre- serves, and a possible increase in the gasoline tax with. an accompanying reduction in automobile fees.
 Governor Winant suggested an in- yestigation of the financial condition of the state hospital, the change Of the name of the New Hampshire school for the feeble minded to La conia state school, the appointment of a committee to investigate fire hazards at state institutions, the adoption of a reasonable state ad- vertising program" and the support of agricultural extension work by public funds instead of partly by outside funds.
