Wales Villagers
Seek Smugglers'
Gold i'm Old Ruins
Children Find Coins and
Map in Wallet When
Masonry Falls.

BY the Associated Press.
NEWTON, Wales, September g.
Residents of Newton, an Old World VII
lage near Porthcawl. Glamorgan, are
trying to discover o chest Of gold which
is reputed to be buried among the ruins
of Ty-Coch, house situated at the far
end of Newton Bay.
These crumbling ruins, which are re-
puted to have been the haunt Of the
Smugglers who at one time infested the
Glamorgan coast, have always had the
reputation among the older inhabitants
of being o treasure house, but, though
previous expeditions had been made,
those conducting them met with no
success.
Now, however, interest in the sup
posed treasure has been revived by the
discovery at the old red house Gas Ty-
Coch is more Familiarity KNOWN Of o
leather wallet containing some old
coins and plan purporting to indicate
the spot where the gold chest is hidden.
This find was made by some school
children, who were playing among the
ruins, when a large piece OF masonry
fell from the fireplace, revealing the
wallet. The children communicated
the discovery to their parents, and after
a study of the plan, which indicated
flights Of steps and underground pas
sages, searching parties were organized.
Many tons of sand have been excavated
by willing workers, but the only
treasure" so far discovered Is George
III 5-shilIing piece and some bronze
figures. Stone steps have also been I'M
covered, which it is thought lead to an
underground chamber.
Much more excavation, however, is
necessary before this can be properly
investigated. A large number of people
are working on the ruins, and many are
convinced that treasure is to be found.
The house was formerly an old inn
much frequented by smugglers.

MACDONALD VICTOR
 ON CENSURE VOTE
Real Battle Is Expected When Naval Con-
 ference Ends

London. March 14.-fPl-The gov crnnent of J. Ramsay Macdonald emerged today victor in ono fight with it's oposition, but of necessity looked forward to an impending moro dangerous tilt d week from now when the coal mines con- troVcrsy is resumed.
 The conservative motion of censuro blaming the government for the general depression failed to pass the house of commons last night after d lengthy debate by vote of sos to 2S5, a majority Of 7S for the government.
 There are indications that the con- scrvative attack was moro of a gesture than real assault. In open ing the debate Stanley Baldwin. conservative leader, predicted that and about 25 conservative members absented themselves from the house just before the division was taken.
 Despite the victory of the sov- ernment the feeling was general that the ministrys defeat Tuesday on a minor amendment to the coal mines bill--which the coal mine owners yesterday at a meeting con- demned in it's entirety-might be regarded as the handwriting on the wall.
 MT. Macdonald was not present at the debate, and was said 10 be in no wise perturbed in expectation of a defeat, since there seems to bc q tacit truce until the naval conference shall have been concluded, when the labor prime minister almost cer- tainly will have 10 fight to maintain his government.
 Tho Daily Chronicle. liberal or gan, today editorially described the commons debate as q sham fight q demonstration and nothing more,' adding that i've all knew before hand what tho conservatives would say and what the lrcc-tradcrs would say in reply"

 'Thc parties are at issue on al- legations of/the petitioner that the machines in question are not gam bling devices under Section 6476 and 6477 of the General Statutes of the state, prohibiting the keeping or possession of such devices when used for gaming or used for the purpose of gambling.'
