LONDON, June 12.--Much space is
devoted in all the London and proyin-
cial newspapers to the Republican con-
vcntion at Kansas City. which is de-
scribed as "one Of the most interesting
events in the history of American pol
itics."
All the special correspondents, who
are struggling for accommodations in
overcrowded but hospitable Kansas
City" agree that 1t is impossible 70 fore
cast who the Republican nominee Is
going to be-
Herbert Hoover's name, of course, is
in the forefront. while Dawes and
Lowden are the next favorites. with
President Coolidge listed as a dark
horse. The British newspaper men are
emphatic in saying Mr.. Hoover's sup
posed pro-British sympsthies are csus-
ing him probably more harm than the
fact that he was once Democrat and
has the farmers against him
The English observers report that
Vice President Dawes chances are
greater than LoWden's. but they still
seem to think President Coolidge is the
man who Will sit in the White House
for the next four years. They base
their prognostications on the theory
that unless Mr.. Coolidge is reelected
America faces a serious economic crisis,
and that Mr. Coolidge is the only man
able to avert this danger.

In Doubt on Vice Presidency.
F.. Scott Mcbride, superintendent of
the Anti-Saloon League, who Is leading
the united movement, said that the
united committee was satisfied with all
of the outstanding presidential aspi-
rants He asserted, however that feel
Ing was developing against some of

We expect to oppose the nomination

holds such views az does Senator Edge

The dry leader said that plank such
as he understood had been prepared by
Senator Borah Of Idaho would meet the
demands of the united committee. and
that 1t was planned 10 ask hearing

Mcbride said that he understood the
Borah plank covers everything the dry
groups are asking for and does not go
beyond that" He made 1t clear that
his organization and those affiliated
with 1t in the battle are not seeking the
insertion In the platform Of a declara-
tlon against the repeal of the eighteenth

GIRL WEDS HER
NEGRO CHOICE
Justice Performs Rites as
KIan Threatens.
By United Press

By United Press
ROCKVILLE, Conn, Feb. T.
Justice of the Peace Carl Goehring
Of Ellington announced today that
he had married Miss Beatrice Full
ler, white, and her mulatto sweet
heart, Clarence Kellem.
Goehring said the ceremony was
performed at Kellem's home here
early today. The couple left Sc
cretly for Philadelphia Immediately
afterward, the justice said.
Undismayed by the refusal of the
Rev. George S. Brookes, Congrega-
tional pastor, to perform the cere-
mony late last night, the 19-year-
old girl, who claims descent from
Mayf1ower stock, and her dusky
fiance were reported to have ap-
pealed later to Goehring, who
agreed to marry them.
In taking the "blue- -blooded"
American girl as his bride, Kellem
defied not only the conventions, but
also the Ku-Klux Klan, who, he
claimed, had threatened to fog him
if he insisted OH the wedding.
The Negro said last night he had
received threats from the Klan. AS
confirmation Of his report, a fiery
cross hared from atop Pillsbury holl,
near the Kellem home, while the
mulatto was seeking minister to
perform the ceremony.

John SMITH, 10, Negro, claimed
y he had been in no trouble be-
fore, when tried for burglary to-
day before Criminal James A. Col
Inns, but the records showed other
wise.
John L. Niblack, deputy prose-
cutor, called for the file on John
Smith," and found the record
quite voluninous.
A total of 129 charges, ranging
from fishing on Sunday to murder,
have been placed against John
Smiths Of The past and present,
and the whole bunch was paraded
before the scared eyes Of a 19-
year-old Negro boy, facing an
austere court for the first time, as
he claimed.
He explained that he works
for 81 a week in a shine parlor,
but Judge Collins couldn't believe
it, he said, when evidence showed
the youth had bought two suits Of
clothes and had $18 in his pocket
when a. a.-'ested. The burglary
charge was taken under advise
ment.

Bitter Fight Seen

PV OHlLtU ffG66
MARION, Ohio, Feb. IA fight
between Secretary Of Commerce
Hoover and United States Senator
Frank B. Willis for control of the
Ohio delegation to the Republican
national convention might precipi-
tate a party split similar to the
Progressive move of 1912. Fred B.
Warner, chairman of the Repub-
1ican State central committee, de-
clared here today.
Warner deplored the brewing
struggle between supporters of SEN
ator Willis, whose candidacy for the
presidential nomination has been
indorsed by the committee, and ad-
herents of the secretary of COM
merce, declaring such fight would
deliver the State to the Demo-
Gratis"
He assailed the present primary
system of choosing convention dele
gates and said:
1.-THE organized fight being made
by Hoover followers will bring about
the state of affairs that existed in
1912. 1 appreciate the lack Of elias
ITCHY to the present method of Sc
lecting delegates and for a long
time have endeavored to formulate
laws whereby voters more easily
could express their choice.
"Under our present arrangement,
neither Senator Willis nor any one
else has authority to name a Sec
ond choice for the voters of Ohio.
The various districts have a right
to be for the man whom they may
choose"

Attorney Will Take Over
Tuxedo Affairs.

George M Barnard, attorney with
Offices in the Chamber of Commerce
Bldg, was named receiver for the
defunct Tuxedo State Bank by Pro-
bate Judge Mahlon E. Bash this

Naming Of Barnard is satisfactory
to officers of the institution, George
Snider, former bank vice president

Bernard was sworn in as receiver
and preparations started for max
ing of bond.
The courtroom was crowded with
creditors and others interested in
the institution when appointment

In choosing Barnard, Judge Bash
