PROPOSES BAN

PRESIDENT WILL GIVE APPROX
AL TO U. S. DELEGATES AT
GENEVA MEET
Ohio Representative Would Prohibit
Use of Gases in Time of War;
Many Nations are Represent
ed at Gathering

Geneva.-Condemn of the us
of poison gas and prohibition of it
expectation for war purposes is pre-
posed in a new article of the draf
convention offered by Representative
| Theodore E. Burton of Ohio, headins
the American delegation of the inter
national conference for the control o
traffic in arms.
Mr.. Burton said he expressed the
desire of the American government
and people that some such provision
regarding poison gas be adopted. He
said the subject had been brought
to the attention of President Coolidge
and that the President would approve
a prohibition of the expectation of
poison gas for war purposes.
He recalled that nine of the pow
ers that signed the Washington treaty
agreed to try to induce other powers
to agree to measures forbidding the
use of asphyxiating gases in warfare,
but he admitted that there are OBJ
stac1es to prohibiting the export OF
such gases.
The article proposed by Mr.. Bur.
poisonous gases and liquids has been
justly condemned by public opinion
and that the prohibition of such use
has been incorporated in treaties
which have been signed by majority
of the civilized powers.
1.-THE high contracting parties there
fore agree absolutely to prohibit the
export from their territory of any
such asphyxiating poisonous or other
gases and all analogous liquids in.
tended or designed for use in connec.
ton with the operations of war;" the
article says.
Mr.. Burton also submitted an alter
native text, as follows:
ITO the end of lessening the hor-
ors of war and ameliorating the suf-
ferings of humanity incident thereto, |
the high contracting parties agree to
control the traffic in poisonous gases
by prohibiting the expectation of all
asphyxiating, toxic or deletorious
gases and all analogous liquids, ma
erials and devices manufactured and
Intended for use in warfare, under
adequate penalties applicable in all
places where such high contracting
PARTIES exercise jurisdiction or con-
roll"
Before the Burton proposal was re-
erred to a committee of experts, del
gates from France, Italy and China
themselves in favor of the
roposal.

Teapot Dome Lease
Is Not Closed Case

Washington-The refusal of Fed
eral Judge Kennedy, at Cheyenne, to
grant the governments request that
the Teapot Dome case be reopened to
hear new evidence makes it probable
that this question will again be con-
sidered by the next congress.
Connected with the trial was the
alleged transfer of 100000 in Lib
erty bonds to former Secretary Of the
Interior Falls account by the Con-
tinental trading company, a Cana
dian concern. Last February Judge
Kennedy refused the governments re-
quest for additional time to secure
verification of this charge. Proceed
ings were then started at Toronto to
compel witnesses to testify and the
supreme court of that city ruled that
witnesses must testify. The main
witness for the government fled to
Africa. The government also started
court proceedings in France, where
other witnesses were located
Almost to the hour that the trial
ended in Judge Kennedy's court the
government witnesses returned. They
are now in this country, and the gov
eminent intended that they be held if
Judge Kennedy would reopen the
case.

Deaths From Autos
For Fifteen Years

Columbus, O.,-The following sum-
mary of the number of fatalities oc-
curing in the state of Ohio from au-
tomobile accidents from the year 1910
to 1924 inclusive, is compiled from
death certificates on file in the Di-
vision of Vital Statistics. During
these fifteen years 1913 certificates
of death have been filed, 5,813 be-
ing males and 1880 females, and the
compilation reveals the significant
fact that children are the most fire.
quent victims of automobile acci-
dents.
The state death rate for automobile
fatalities for Ohio has increased from
II per 100000 population in 1910 to
1876 in 1924
There were 32,9421 automobiles in
the state in 1910. For that year there
were "a deaths per 1000 machines
For the year 1924 we have 1,203,930
motor vehicles in Ohio and mortal
ity rate of .08 deaths per 1000 ma
chimes.
Better enforcement of traffic laws
in the various municipalities and on
the highways, together with educa-
tional campaigns carried on by safe
ty councils, automobile clubs and by
school authorities, has undoubtedly
been a large factor in curbing the
rising death rate from this menace to
life which is increasing with the in
creased number of automobiles.

BOllwOrm Invasion
Menaces Cotton Belt

Washington-The $5,000,O0O which
the federal government has spent for
the eradication of the pink bollworm
in the cotton belt proper is menaced
with notification unless the officials
of Texas and New Mexico supplement
the federal restrictions with state reg
ulations prohibiting cotton seed from
infested territories to move to other
parts of the state and shipments of
lint before having been fumigated,
declares the United States depart
ment of agriculture in a statement
regarding its work to free the cotton
belt from the bollworm.
The federal department can pro-
hibit the interstate shipment of seed
and lint from infested regions, but
has no control over the movement
within the state. The border lands
of western Texas and New Mexico
have become so thoroughly infested
with the bollworm this season as to
make necessary a united effort on
the part of both federal and state
officials if the scourage is to be pre-
vented from extending throughout the
entire cotton belt, declares the de-
partment.

JUSTICE FOR CHINESE PEOPLE
URGED BY PRESIDENT GREEN

Washington-Th right of China
to control its internal affairs is urged
by VIM. Green, president of the A. +.
of L., in a letter to President Cool
idge.
The trade unionist further urges
that the president take the initiative
in calling an international conference
to make plans to abolish eXtra-terrl-
torial rights in China. Under this
system the various world powers that
have established themselves in China
refuse to recognize the laws al that
country.
President Green calls attention to
the Washington conference on the
limitation of ornaments in 1921,
which provided for commission to
study this subject, but to date no ac-
ton has been taken.
"This declaration" said President
Green, "was in fact a pledge to help
China, then struggling with the prob
lens of reorganization as we'll as to
countries participating in the confer
ence which wished to assure China op-
portunities for self-development and
reorganization.
'There is every reason to believe
that the fundamental cause for pres
ent disturbances in China is due to
special privileges given foreign ma
tions in treaty pacts, and that the
abolition of extra territorial rights Of
foreigners is necessary to Chjna's ad
ministrative integrity and sovereign
ty.
"The Chinese are an ancient and
honorable people who have developed
a distinctive culture of rare qualities
and they have right to demand the
respect and Difference accorded to ma
tional sovereignty.

Chicago-The Chicago Federation
of Labor has appealed to the Amer

to full affiliation the Amalgamated
Clothing Workers of America, with
the object of eliminating disputes
which arise between the Clothing
Workers and the United Garment
Workers.
The action of the Chicago Fedora

written by the Chicago Board of the
Amalgamated wherein they alleged
that the United Garment Workers
had accepted employment and agree
ments with clothing firms against
whom the Amalgamated were out on
strike against a reduction in wages.
