LAUSANNE PACT HEART ATTACK
RATIFICATION is CLAIMS HEAD or
URGED BY DAVIS DEFUNCT BANK

MEMPHIS, Tenn, Dec 80 (AP)
Harry Cohn, rs, financier and
president of the closed Savings
Bank and Trust Company, died un-
expectedly of heart attack, SUI
perinduced, it is believed, by the
closing of his banking house and
alleged defalcations of several
trusted employees.
The aged banker was found ly-
ing on the floor of the basement
washroom of the bank today by
clerk. He was hurried to hospi-
tai where he was pronounced dead.
Mr.. Cohn's death was the second
tragedy of the bank failure. Clar-
ence Henochsberg, assistant cash
ier, killed himself at his home here
two weeks ago, after telling
friend that he was short 100000 in
his accounts.
Henochsberg' suicide, coming on
the heels of the discovery of an al
legged shortage of $1O5,O00 in the
accounts of Rush H. Parke, clerk,
brought about the bank closing
Since then two other clerks have
been arrested on charges of en-
bezzlement involving smaller
amounts. All are on bond to am
Swer to the charges.
Mr. Cohn was one of the found
ers of the bank, organized 20 years
ago and rated as one of the strong
est financial institutions of the
city. Since the bank closed, Mr..
Cohn, despite his years, has taken
an active part in efforts to
straighten out it's tangled affairs.
Worry and an overtaxing of his
strength is regarded as contri-
butory cause of the fatal heart at
tack.

er, Christian H., fatally injured
when their automobile was struck
by an eastbound Atchison, Topeka

The automobile was dragged
more than 100 yards by the train.
Bent was dead when picked up by
trainmen and Christian died while
being rushed to a Lamar hospital

to have obstructed the drivers
view. The coroner stated there
would be no inquest.
Both brothers came from Den
mark but a. short time ago. Chris
tian leaves a widow and four small
children. Bent was unmarried.
The train was in icharge of Cons
ductor Charles OYerdorf.

NEW YORK, Dec. 80 (AP)-A

cd a strike, doomed through the
Metropolitan Opera house today.
The voice. was that Of Joseph
MACPHERSON, who four years ago
was playing semi-professional base
ball on vacant lots in Nashville,
Tenn. MACPHERSON, rs years old,
and with only three years of vocal
training as. preparation for the
test, made his debut, singing the
King in Verdi's Aida at bene-
fit matinee.
Praised BY Critic. :.
Tullio Serafin, Metropolitan con
ductor under whose agile u baton
the performance was given, said of
MacPherson's voice:
1T is pleasing and rich. There

debut a success.

Pherson from a minstrel show or
ganized to earn money for his
team to buy balls and bats, trained
him and put him in the major
leagues in the three years, dash
cd into the dressing room to find
his pupil in a predicament. Mac
Pherson, kings whiskers, regal
robes, sandals and crown still on,
was being embarrassed. But he
didn't know how to get the paint
off his face. 1t was his first time
in makeup, and Delucca had to
borrow a box of cold cream and
supervise the removal of the
kings whiskers and monarchial
wrinkles.

MACPHERSON said, when he got. his
six feet something into street

to see my wife and baby" Mrs.
Louise Macpherson, his wife, was
confined to bed with a broken' hip
that made it impossible for her to

NEW YORK. Dec. 80 (AP)-John
w. Davis, candidate for president
on the Democratic ticket in 1924,
on a platform opposing ratification
of the American Turkish treaty
negotiated at Lausanne in 1923, now
favors such ratification.
In a statement issued today
through the general committee of
American Institutions and associa-
tions in favor of ratification of the
treaty with Turkey, Mr.. Davis
writes that in his judgment "the
evidence in favor of ratification is
overwhelming"
The committee also made public
letter from Charles E. Hughes,
former Republican presidential can
didate, reaffirming his opinion that
the treaty should be ratified.
What is there in the present
Mr. Davis asks after as
serting that opponents of ratifica-
tion offer no alternative that prom
lses to better things, ''to lend any
support to the belief that if the
treaty, which offers us equality
with other powers, is rejected, we
can negotiate by diplomacy or by
force a better treaty in its placer"
Asserting that it is not strength
but vanity utterly to ignore the
considered judgment of other SOW
erign powers, he says that America
must make its own decision, but
should i'll doing so consider the
fact that at least 27 nations have
since 1921 concluded treaties with
Turkey on terms no more favor
able than those proposed to US.
MIR. Davis sees another reason
for ratification in his belief that
the American diplomats who ne
gotiated the treaty are entitled TO
the presumption that they acted on
the best information they were
able to obtain and negotiated the
most favorable treaty the circum-
stances allowed.

Flyers AT Vera Cruz

YER ACRUZ, Dec. 80 (AP)-Led

four planes which were held up for
a week at Tampico, reached Vera
Cruz this afternoon. They wore

C. Eaker, flew to Vera Cluz last
week, after futile attempts had
been made to recall her on the ori-

iTampico.
The American aviators swept
down to the bay and found a safe
mooring place; then the flyers
came to shore while bands played
the nation anthems and the au-
athorities and populace gave them a
great reception.
Major Dargue said the flight
from Tampico to Vera Cruz, a dis
tance of 1876. miles, was made with
out incident The flying time was
2 hours and 40 minutes. Favorable
winds added speed to the Ameri-

the aviators had to face powerful
air currents. Tonight they were
enjoying themselves at the naval

In the tumult and discord Of cam
paigns the question arises in Wash
| ington as to whether President Cool
idgei S losing his hold as a party
leader. Sometimes his supporters
among the majority at the Capitol
chaff under the political fire of their
opponents who twit them about the
unwillingness of the President to par
ticipate in primary fights.
Nobody disputes the fact that a
pat on the back, publicly administer
ed from the White House, would les
sen the tension in the primaries.
When these accolades are not forth
coming inquiry of late shows a dis
position which is developing an indie
pendent spirit on the part of the can
didates, and take their chances on
their personal record rather Than on
the support Of the nominal party lead
er.
With Congress considering the
French debt settlement there is a
story current again in Washington to
the effect that Secretary of the Treas
ury Mellon will resign when these
international matters arecleared up.
The story is given some color as an
aftermath of the returns from Penn
sylvania, when as one keen political
observer said: GAS a political Secre-
tary Mellon is still the best Secre-
tary of the Treasury since Alexander
Hamilton" There has been consider
able discussion regarding Melons
first direct participation of the state
political affairs, because his reputa-
ton has ben built up on his success
as fnancier. "
The debate on proposed remedial
legislation for farmers continues to
hold the attention of Congress. The
Senate has held several night ses-
sions in an effort to weed out i'm
portant legislation on the calendar,
so as to be prepared for quick dis
position of the farm bill as it comes
from the House.
The public building bill carrying
an appropriation for $150,000,000 to
be expended over period of five
years has become law, with the re-
suit that several congressman whose
reelection depended upon the APP
propiations for Post Offices will now
breathe easier. These Federal build
ings will erected in principally
six states, not including the District
of Columbia, where $50,00O,000 out
of the $165, 100000 will be used for
housing Government Departments
The Senate and House are also show
ing remarkable speed in disposing of
pesniosn cases and confirming Post
master appointments. The patronage
questin is always delicate subject
around election time.
Unless there is disturbance
among the opponents of farm legis-
lation, Congress will adjourn prob
ably about June Is.

WASHINGTON LETTER

1t is rather pathetic nowadays to
note the confusion of mind prevailing
among legislators and their campaign
managers. The protracted effort to
separate prohibition form political
campaigns has been unavailing as re-
turns from primaries recently held in
the largely populated states disclose.
the result is that Congress is doing
its best to wind up its affairs and at
the same time bring about realign-
ment on policies.
For time it appeared that the pro-
hibition issue could be discounted as
extraneous matter especially on a
national scale. 1t is, perhaps, too
early to judge the effect of this issue
on party platforms, but nobody
doubts that multitude of factions will
crop up from this source to make
party success a hazardous matter.
The passage of the resolution call
ing for investigation, by select
senate committee, into the campaign
expenses and methods may have a
marked effect on Forthcoming pri-
mary and election methods. The re-
solution drafted by Senator "Jim''
Reed, Democrat, of Missouri conveys
broad powers upon the Investigating
committee. The committee has the
power to inquire into the activities of
every agency interested in the cleo
lions of senators which, of course,
gives it an opportunity for a muck
raking, if it so desired. This COM
mittee will loom like the shadow of
a policeman over the approaching
struggle for control of Congress. For
instance, it has the authority to sum-
mon, at any time, leaders of such Or
CARNATIONS as the Anti-Saloon
League, church groups, industrial as
sociations and the like, to explain
the extent of their financial partici-
patton in the campaigns of candidates
for Federal office. At the prospect
of unpleasant notoriety it is assumed
that organizations interested in polit-
ical developments will be extremely
cautious in their participation. Like
wise, funds to carry on the campaigns
