'REORGANIzED DRYS
PREPARE DEFENSE
Wickersham Report Expect
ed to Precipitate Conflict
by January |.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
The drys are girding for battle in
Congress. buttressing their defenseS
around the eighteenth amendment to
the Constitution.
A recognized staff of the friends of
prohibition pushing an educational
campaign all over the country has been
called for by Senator Fess of Ohio, who
now carries the duties also of chairman
OF the Republican National Committee.
Report Expected by January /.
In his stand was seen today a warn
ing against any repeal movement within
the Republican party, Fess has been
mentioned by prohibitionists as poten-
tial leader for reorganized dry forces.
In the movement for rebuilding the
prohibition attack group indications
appeared that some of the burden of
political activity would be lifted from
the Anti-Saloon League, which for
many years has borne the brunt of the
task.
Both diys and vets in Congress are
expecting a renewal of conflict some
time after the prohibition report of the
Presidents Law Enforcement Commits
sion Is given out. Harassed by an in
slstent curiosity and speculation as to
what is being accomplished in closed
session. the members of this commits
sion have been pleading to be left alone
with their difficult task They have lit
tie hope Of completing a report by the
time Congress meets December l. Per-
haps a month later 1t will be ready.
That now is expected generally to be
the latest date it will be given out.
Enforcement Thought Ineffective.
The defense of the eighteenth amend
ment in Congress at the present time
offers the drys no difficulty. They have
ample votes for the purpose. Regard
ing sentiment on the enforcing laws
indications are less definite. Senator
Fess himself yesterday said the increas-
ing penalties imposed on liquor violators
under the Jones act had failed to be Of
hoped-for benefit.
The bootlegger is without character
and doesn't mind going to Jail to be
supported by the public" he observed.
I'VE are filling the jails, but am afraid
that is not the necessary deterrent"

POOL
TO HONOR STRAUS
Memorial Association Ac-
cepts Site Near New De-
partment of Commerce.

The Oscar S. Straus Memorial, au-
thorized by act of Congress during the
administration of President Coolidge,
will take the form of rejecting pcol
near the great new Department of
Commerce Building.
This was disclosed at the Treasury
following dispatches from New York
City to the effect that the Oscar S.
Straus Memorial Association had ac-
cepted the offer of the Treasury De-
partment fer site for the memorial.
Straus was former Secretary of Com
merce and Labor in the cabinet of
President Roosevelt, and the memorial
association bearing his name for years
has been working for memorial in
the Nations Capital.
1t seemed fitting to. the Government
that the association should be accorded
the privilege of placing the rejecting
pool in the grand plaza near the De-
partment of Commerce Building. This
pool will not be the major feature of
the grand plaza in the center of the
Federal triangle but will be one of the
beautiful features of this place.
While the exact spot has not yet been
picked, it was thought likely that the
pool may be on or near the site Of the
Fire Department truck and water tower
station on Fourteenth street.

LONDON, November 1.-THE Brit
ish Empire today kept the twelfth
anniversary of the armistice with
ceremonies of silence and prayer that
the horror of the World War may never
be repeated.

observed at IL am, while King George,

in prayer at the cenotaph, where just
two years ago today he caught the
cold which led to his long and serious
illness.
King George stood between his sons,
the Prince of Wales and the Duke OF
York, with the prime ministers of the
dominions and the Princes of the In
dian States ha..,:ing them.
Around them and the hollow square
in Whitehall r5 far as vision could
penetrate through the gray haze people
were massed in unbroken silence.
Chimes of Big Ben on the parliament
towers crashed, out the hour and sa-
lutte of guns In Horse Guards parade
signalled beginning Of the great ST.
lence.
Nearly every man, woman and child
in the country wore a Flanders poppy
emblem made by former service men on
behalf of the veterans fund King
George and Queen Mary bought theirs
just like other folk from some of the
volunteer army of 100000 who sold
the tokens.
outside Westminster Abbey there is
a field of remembrance planted around
white cross which once marked an
unknown soldiers grave in France. AS
the veterans sold the peoples they were
stuck in the ground near the cross until
it was surrounded with blanket of red.

INDIAN CONF ERENCE
MEETS TOMORROW
Three Plans of Government
Suggested to Determine
Future Policies.
BY the Associated Press.

by the Associated HTeSS.
LONDON, November 11.-Vital prob
lens of imperial unity pressed today
for settlement as Anal preparations
were made for inaugural of the Indian
round table conference tomorrow In the
royal gallery of the House Of Lords.
Upon the outcome of the conference,
which is to be convened by the King
Emperor, George v, probably will de-
pend greatly the future course of events
in India, where q large nationalist ele-
ment is conducting a civil disobedience
campaign.
Gandhi Not Represented.
There will be present at the confer
ence 66 delegates, including is British
ministers and members of Parliament,
representing all three parties, as well
as representatives of the Indian states
and political elements IN British In
dia.
There will be no representatives of
the nationalist faction, popularity epito-
mized in the person OF the Mahatma
Gandhi. now in prison in Poona, and
the all-India National Congress, who
have determined to have nothing to do
with the conference.
When the council was first called 1t
was expected that the report of the
commission on Indian statutory reform,
headed by Sir John Simon, would form
the basis for all discussions, but today
it appeared that at least three plans
for a, future Indian status would be
presented.
Three Plans Are Suggested. q
The first of these will be that
preached in the Simon report, which
advocated an Indian federation, in
which far greater degree of govern
mental autonomy would be offered. but
in which the British government would
still exercise the principal authority
in such questions as military problems
and foreign relationships
1t is expected that the government
or viceroy, Lord Irwin. will offer
second plan. Some have seen intima-
tons in remarks of Premier Macdonald
that this will involve dominion status
for India, or at least much greater
degree of governmental autonomy than
is now the case.
The Indian princes and representa-
tiveS from British India, although far
removed, possibly, from the radical
Swarajist element, already have indi-
Gated that they will not be satisfied
even with dominion status and that al
most a complete independence will be
sought.
Deadlock Is Prophesied.
In view of the Emergencies, prophe-
cies have been heard that a deadlock
will ensue and that the meeting will
come to naught. Critical comment has
stressed abstention Of the Swarajist ele-
n1ent from the conference. making the
point that any settlement arrived at
probably can not gain acceptance in
India.
The Indian princes, who since their
arrival here have appeared in public in
the gorgeous regalia of their rank, have
decided to attend the conference in
sober morning dress, In conformance
with the attire of the British ministers
and Of King George.
Although the conference convenes
tomorrow. it viii not undertake It's
first actual work until next Monday,
when Its members meet again in st.
James Palace.

monia treatment. the mixture has had
remarkable success" he said. II think
the basis Is sound and logical, and the
idea OF carbon dioxide and oxygen over
coming atalectasis concerned wi pneu-
monia in relieving cyanosis will thereby
induce decreased heart strain. Since a
great deal of the mortality from pneu-
monia Is because Of heart weakening,
any aid that we can give TO the heart
adds to the chances OF the recovery OF
the patient"
