That is not the usual method of work
for the c. G. s.. but it is the best. He
can express my views as well as
should have done myself. In

Was there any need, then, to evince
surprise when the papers announced, on
April 20, 1928, the dispatch of Gen.
Weygand to Syria as high commits
sioner? Was not the situation there one
of the worst. Well, then '!
The night before. the marshal, on his
return from the Academic Franchise,
had shut himself in his office. Shortly
question at issue, arrived Gen. Wey-
gand.
He had abandoned the course of map
reading that he was conducting at the
Staff College in response to an urgent
telephone summons from the marshal.
A very long consultation took place
between them. Nothing leaked out. the
next day the surprise was complete.
Every one racked his brains to find the
toll Of Nyiln ut nf
a vice royalty.
Poincare Wanted Weygand.
Gen Weygand was not elated at the
prospect. But the marshal told him in
confidence: M Poincare spoke to me
about 1t at the Academic yesterday. He
took me on one side and said: Are you
willing to let me have Weygand-f it
is necessary! Yes, he Is important, l
know. He is your C. G. S. We
all know what he did in Warsaw. If he
goes to Syria, we shall feel easier in
mind"
On this occasion, moreover, the most
malicious rumors were spread about.
Some regarded it as the removal of
this too conspicuous general by ap-
pointment to an extraordinarily diff
cult and delicate mission III the hope
that he would lose his reputation.
Others insinuated that it was revenge
on him for not having approved all
that was being done in the Ruhr.
"Weygand! He is a paragon. He
has the necessary range. Now was the
time for him to spread his wings. 1t
was not without many heart-burnings
that let him go, but 1 had not the
right to clip his wings"
How can these two men sever their
connection? Within 10 days they were
to leave at the same time for Poland

and Czechoslovakia! Since August,
1914, they have continually worked to-

On April 80. 1923, all the members
of the interallied military committee
and many Poles came to the Care de
lest to say farewell to the marshal.
BY general consent, they left Gen. Wey-
gand to talk with the marshal. They
walked to and fro along the platform
beside the train.
Keen Emotion at Parting.
There followed a moment of keen
emotion. The two inseparable COL
leagues were parting-one for Warsa@,
the other shortly for Beirut.
Gen. Weygand is rather pale and IS
chewing a cigar. The marshal is
gloomy and absorbed. At this moment
of parting nothing seems to exist for
him but the presence of Weygand. 1t
IS farewell to his most intimate col
league, his most devoted disciple, his
best friend! He embraces him, kissing
him affectionately on each cheek. He
boards the train, but remains on the
footboard and leans towards him.
Remember what 1 said to you just
now"
Standing in the frame of the door,
waiting for the train to start, he re-
mains sad and silent. but still thinking
of some last word of advice, which he
throws to Weygand in disjointed
phrases, while the general listens with
respect and approves BE strong

Roll yourself up into a ball like
a porcupine and then get to work!
Eh?" " Each word is punctuated by
a determined gesture.
The train is on the point of leaving.
The marshal comes down a step, leans
over Weygand, keeps his gaze fixed
upon him: he seems to be smiling at
him. but with a superficial smile to hide
the profound pain which the separa ion
causes him. The train starts. One last

next time to break air records she
will keep her boots on.
And from the way Miss Trout
talks there is going to be a next
time.
The girl who Monday established
two records for women in endurance
flying by keeping her plane aloft
for seventeen hours, said her only
trouble was with her feet. She took
of her boots and put on moccaSi1S,
to keep her feet warm. and it was
hard work manipulating the rudder

What seemed to please Miss
Trout most was the fact that she
gave those eastern women some

Agree on Amendment to
Traffic Ordinance: Some
to Be Exempt.

The city council has changed its
mind about regulation Of Stickers
for traffic violations and agreed to
amendment of the traffic ordinance
to restore the right to exercise dis
cretion on the violation notices to
the board of safety, it was learned
today.
The new ordinance, effective
Jan. 1, required the city clerk to re-
port to council the disposition OF
every sticker. Police promptly
stopped exempting tagged motorists
with good excuses.
Several hundred motorists were
arrested for failure to obey the
Sticker notice to report to the city
clerk and pay the 81 first penalty,
but Municipal Judge G. R. Cameron
threw the cases aside as fast as they
came to him on the ground citizens
had not had time to became famil-
lar with the new ordinance.
Councilmen protested they were
being ''goats" and declared police
still had the right to exercise dis
cretion, but the board of safety and
Chief Claude M. Worley replied that
they were not gonig to be made
goats" in any investigation and
continued to enforce the new sticker
provisions to the letter.
Several councilmen bitterly as
sailed The Indianapolis Times be-
cause it disclosed that Councilman
Edward Harris went to Chief Worley
with a business friend seeking ex~
emption from stickers, a few days
after the new ordinance went into
effect.
The climax of several informal
conferences came Monday afternoon
in a friendly meeting between Coun-
cilmen Robert. E. SpringSteen, Paul
E. Rathert, Albert T.. Meurer, Mere
dith Nicholson, Harris. Herman P.
Lieber and John F. White, the
safety board, Chief Worley and
Smiley Chambers, assistant city at
torney.
The seven councilmen joined in a
request of Chambers that he pre-
pare an amendment, specifically re-
storing TO the safety board power to
exempt motorists with sound ex-
cuSeS for minor violations.

Some time Monday DR.. Shu-
maker decided he wanted to go
to the farm at once.
Plans Kept Secret
Arrangements for the trip were
kept a deep secret, in contrast to
the fanfare of publicity which ac-
conpanied DR.. Shumaker'S elaborate
scene of marytrdom at his home
when he first reported tc the farm
last October, to be met at the door
with the news that Governor Ed
Jackson had pardoned him.
Late Monday afternoon 1t was
stated at Sheriff Resoner'S Indian
apolis home that plans for DR.. Shu-
makers transportation were indefi~
mite.
At that very moment Marion
County Sheriff George L. Winkler,
to whom Resoner had delegated his
authority, was preparing to start
for the farm with DR.. Shun1aker
by automobile. They left at p. m.
1t was not generally known until
z p. m. In Indianapolis that the
superintendent had started paying
the penalty.
Bu1ks With $50 Others
Routine necessary to formal ad-
mission of DR.. Shumaker was ac-
conplished Monday evening and he
was assigned to cot in a dornlitory
with $50 other men, some of them
bootleggers. Farm life began in
earnest for him when he was routed
out with the others at 5:45 this
morning. The temperature was
near zero. The dormitories are not
quite so warm as DR.. Shumaker's

Plea for a $4,000 annual appro-

a survey of Indiana coal lands by
Purdue university engineers was
made today by Senator Carl M.
Gray, Petersburg, speaking for the
bill he has introduced.
According to Gray the state has
slumped unnecessarily in coal pro-
duction during the last few years,
while Kentucky and West Virginia
have made constant progress.
He attributed the decreased pro-
duction to the propaganda that In
diana coal is inferior. With the
survey this would be disproved,

WHOLE WORLD Is
BLESSED BY POPE
Thousands KneeI in Rain at
Gesture CroWning Tri-
umph of Church.
BY THOMAS B. MORGAN
United Press staff Correspondent

ROME, Feb. 12.-While a great
multitude that filled the vast square
in front of st. Peters paid him
homage, Pope Plus XXI appeared on
a balcony today and gave his bless
ing to the whole world
It was the crowning act of the
pope's day of triumph, in which he
celebrated the seventh anniversary
of his coronation and the consum-
nation of peace between the Vati-
can and Italy after fifty eight years
Of estrangement.
The blessing "urbis ct orbis" (of
the city and the world came at the
conclusion of pontifical high mass
in the cathedral, at which crowd
that filled every available inch of
space paid tribute to the pope and
the Roman settlement.
When the pope went out on the
balcony to bless the crowd, thou
sands knelt in the open, despite the
drizzling rain. The pope wore a
white cassock with red mantle
above it., and the papal red hat with
gold embroidery.
Cheered by Crowd
The pope lifted his hand and pro-
nounced the blessing. He repeated
the formula a second and a third
time.
When he had finished the crowd
broke into vociferous cheering.
The blessing was significant of the
pope's changed status and the res
toration of his temporal sovereignty.
1t was a custom abandoned by the
popes in 1870, when they retired into
seclusion in the vatican.
It was estimated that the blessing
was bestowed in the presence OF
100000 persons.
The pontiff appeared on the bal
cony accompanied by cross-bearer,
the cardinals in their scarlet robes,
and the members Of the papal court.
1t was a pageant of medieval Splen-
dor.
Celebrate High Mass
The crowd was one of the greatest
ever gathered in the square.
Inside, the pontifcal high mass
was celebrated at the papal altar in
front of the tomb of st. Peter, the
apostle.
Borne aloft on the apostolic chair,
the pontiff was carried in solemn
procession through the aisles of the
vast st. Peters cathedral and borne
to the high altar to offlciate at the
high mass of thanksgiving.
The pope entered, preceded by the
college of cardinals in their full
robes and surrounded by the papal
court. Silver trumpets sounded the
papal fanfare
AS the colorfuI procession passed
through the aisles the pope be-
slowed a benediction to right and
left. The crowd broke into ap-
plause and then cheering while the
Basilica rang with cries, Long live
the pope"
