GHOST TOWN

Removal of Street Car
Tracks Serves As Last
Chapter.
By Times Special

By Times Special
CHESTERTON, Ind, Aug. a.
Goodrun has been added to the list
Of Indiana ghost towns. Removal
of street car tracks to the site Of
the proposed town recently was the
last step in wiping out venture
that cost thousands of dollars.
Twenty years ago promoters
dreamed of fast electric train SER
vice between New York and Chicago.
Goodrun was to be an important
point along the line. The first work
on building the railroad was on a
link between Goodrun and La Pore.
Branches were also built to Vel
paraiso and Chesterton. The La
Porte link was finally completed and
cars we're run but never carried
enough passengers to show a profit.
The Chesterton branch also was a
failure. Out of the entire project.
the Valparaiso Gary link only Is
left, and it is making money.
Six men lost their lives as one
tragic chapter of the dream that
never came true. They we're men,
bers of force working on grading
the right of way for the Goodrun-
La Porte link. A trestle crashed
down upon them during a heavy
rain.

from three to fifteen years in the
Detroit house of correction.
The girl attempted to hold up the
Peoples Savings Bank here recently

mortgage on the farm where she
lived with her father in log cabin.
BY pleading guilty, the girl was
liable to a sentence of life. but Judge
w. H. Martin imposed the lighter
sentence, with recommendation that
she serve only three years.
His investigation of the case, he

GIBSON GROPES
FOR PEACE KEY
IN NAVY MAZE
Japanese Reported to Have
Tentative Plan Looking
Toward Accord.

: BIZ United Press
GENEVA, Aug. 2.-Hugh S. Glib
son, chief of the American delega-
ton to President Coolidge's naval
limitations conference, visited the
japanese and British leaders today
but there was no announcement OF
his purpose.
The visit to the Japanese took
place first and it was reported that
Viscount Ishii and Baron Saito
offered Cancellation proposal along
the lines of the British suggestion
that there be a naval holiday.
A plenary session of the confer
enCe, with full representation OF
Japanese, British and American
delegations, has been set for Thurs
day. The session apparently will
provide each delegation with oppor-
tunity to state it's position and to
explain why it was not responsible
for the difficulties which have de-
veloped here, after which the con-
ference presumably will adjourn.
Cruisers Are Snag
To- +. ne has been no progress to-
wa9A limitation of the cruiser class
of warships. Submarines and de-
stroyers were less difficult. The
question of cruisers involved naval
bases, of which Britain has many
widely scattered along the world
trade routes and the United States
has few.
With bases from which to operate
small cruisers, Britain preferred to
limit the number of 10,000-ton
cruisers as much as possible. The
United States wanted to build TO-
O00-ton cruisers according to its
needs, within the tonnage limit to be
decided upon.
In principle, the conferees agreed
to parity in naval strength as be-
tween Britain and the United States.
Britain now has considerable
superiority in auxiliary vessel
strength and parity would have
been obtained either by Britain
scrapping vessels or by the United
States building up to the British
strength.
Far Apart on Ideas
Gibson suggested that 100000 tons
be maximum cruiser strength and
that within such quota each nation
be permitted to build ships up to
10000 tons, according to require
mentS.
The British countered by explain
ing their necessity for large num-
bers of smaller cruisers, so many OF
the 3OO,0O0-ton quota there would
not remain enough to permit build
ing of many large cruisers.
To provide parity in the British
sense, the British delegates proposed
that there should be further limita-
ton within the 300,000-ton quota.
Thus each nation would be per-
nlitted to build only a certain num-
Der of large cruisers and on the
smaller cruisers the caliber of guns
would be reduced from eight to six
inches.
That proposal was Objectionable
to Gibson. 1t would require the
United States, he said, to build ships
of the small cruiser class, which ii
did not neer( or to permit Britain
to have the stronger Navy.
