Belgium Issues Ultimatum In Staying
Of Diplomat.

BRUSSELS, January 8 P.-Bel-
gium served sharp ultimatum on the
Spanish Socialist government today,
giving it 48 hours to deliver with mill
tary honors the body Of Baron Jacques
De Borchgrave, allegedly slain En-
bassy secretary in Madrid. and submit
apologies and pay a $35 900 indemnity.
II Spain fails to comply with the
demands. it was indicated Belgium will
sever diplomatic relations and possibly
submit the case to The Hague Interna-
tional Court.
The death of the young diplomat,
who was first secretary of the Embassy,
has aroused great indignation here,
where he was extremely popular.
Buried Beneath Nine.
A Senate committee investigating
the incident was told Borchgrave. IS,
was buried underneath nine OF 81
others slain 5000 yards north Of
Madrid.
The baron was said at the time
to be 10 miles from the front lines
visiting wounded Belgians OF the in
ternational brigade.
The committee was told Belgian
volunteers had revolted because they
had not been paid and we're shot.
Borchgrave was killed with the
others, 1t was said, although he was
only a visitor.
Foreign Minister p. H. Spaak urged
members of the committee not to
divulge parts of his statement as 1t
was likely to prove fatal to persons
still residing in Madrid"
Newspapers have assailed the gov
ernment for not taking vigorous ac-
ton.
Papers Were Missing.
On January 4 the newspaper Libre
Belgique said the baron's body had
been found at Fuencaral with his iden-
tity papers missing.
The young diplomat, missing since
December 81, was the only son Of the
Belgian Ambassador to the Vatican.
His body. the paper asserted. was
located by Belgian Consul Chalet, who
found mention Of an unidentified
blond man, wearing Belgian clothes,
in q list of daily Fuencaral funerals.
He had the body exhumed and iden-
tilted.
CAT the time the newspaper report
ed the body had been found the Ma
drid bureau of the Associated Press

fused permission to send q dispatch

into the intake valves of the yentila-
ton equipment of the busses.
The solution of that problem, Reed
suggested, rested on improvement Of
engines, gasoline and oil, to reduce the
amount OF gases which are now dis
charged into the streets.
Excessive Heating Cited.
Excessive heating Of buses also has
been cited in complaints which have
been filed with the commission by bus
passengers. Some weeks ago, the COM
mission called this to the attention of
the company and directed that bus
drivers be directed to use more care
in the operation OF the heating and
Venttlating equipment.
After reading the reports Of the
chemist, commission officials said they
were convinced there had been consid-
cradle improvement in the conditions
OF the air in busses since the ventila-
tion apparatus was ordered installed
and since the company had been
ordered to check on operation OF the
equipment.
Reed concluded from his study that
ventilating facilities on coach No. 1926,
which was tested February 26, either
we're inadequate or that they were
faulty at the time the test was made.
When this bus was empty 1t was found
to have four parts of carbon dioxide
in 10000. This content rose to 10
parts when 35 passengers had been

From the chemist, J. B. Reed, came

IIlInoisan UnreIenting After
Six Days Demand for
Street Repair.
BY the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
JOLIET, H., March 13.-The siege
of May street approached a Show
down tonight with Frank Peterlin,
the besieger, unwavering in his re-
solve to get those cinders.
For six days Frank has sat and
slept in his mud~bogged automobile
demanding that the city repair the
street in front OF his house. His
hope for victory mounted on the
strength of Street Commissioner Sam
Shepley's statement that he might
do something" about the cinders
Monday. a.
Irked at Publicity. r.
But Shepley reverted to silence to-
day. Associates reported him irked at
the publicity and disposed to let
Peterlin keep sitting from now on
1t was recalled that the commits
sioner's promise carried the reserva-
ton If the weather permits"
"Shepley has made promises to me
before Peterlin declared today be-
tween munching sandwich and
greeting the public IF he doesn't
DO something this time-well, I'm not
quitting man"
The 35-year-old electrician cooked
his feet comfortably on the front seat
of his sedan, flicked on the radio and
the electric heater and continued:
Ten loads Of cinders would fix this
street up. That's all I've been asking
Tor years. I've lived here 10 years
and have got a house now, but what
good is it if you can't get at it?"
Neighborhood Support.
The neighbors are all with me in
this. It's more than a one-man fight
Not only on May street, but a lot of
people in this town and l guess about
every other town are in the same boat.
guess this is almost national issue"
Commissioner Shepley's colleagues
on the City Council also sought to
ignore the sit-down.
I'm not interested" said Mayor
George T. Jones.

Another friend intimated that
"Putzl' had differed radically with

1t was this friends conviction that

interfering with or criticizing the Lon
don Ambassadors course.
Hanfstaengl, those who knew him
well were quick to point out. always

In ordering the first legal whipping
TO be given in 2l years, Magistrate
Fletcher directed that Crabtree be
given a physical examination to de-

The main problem facing Sheriff
Kemp was where to get the whip to
carry out the sentence. The DULL

the 20 lasheS on a man convicted in
1916 Of similar offense has been
discarded.

None of the other tests showed A

"Ventilating facilities which will
keep carbon dioxide down in heavily
loaded bus to Il parts in 10000 are
considered adequate" Reed said.
Referring to the gas fumes, Reed
told the commission: 1T is the pres

causes most Of the complaints and il
the unsatisfactory conditions are to

Merchants Group

Christmas decorations in Hender-
sons business district were virtually
completed with the wiring and light
ing of a large community Christmas
tree yesterday in the triangle of the
approaches to the underpass. All that
remained was the wiring and light
fhg of another tree at the lower end
of the Garrett street shopping dis
trict on the premises of the American
Legion hut, and this was to lie done
today or tomorrow
Sam Afford, who has been in charge
of the work, said that the tree at the
underpass had too many white lights
in it, but that these would be replaced
with colored bulbs as soon as a sup
ply could be had.
Additional expense entailed in the
elaborate decorations that have been
erected had run to a slightly higher
figure than had been anticipated the
aggregate cost of the undertaking
this season, and that this could be
provided for very easily if those who
have not contributed to the expense
would respond as others have done.
With the extensive lighting system
erected this season, it is believed that

Success in the Vance County Com
munity Chest campaign was envision-
ed today by J. w. Jenkins, general

ended. He issued a call today to all
workers who have not already done
SO to report not later than tomorrow
to their team captains, so that all
pledges and cash donations could be
turned in by the end of the week.

afternoon, at which time it was plan
ned to outline the remainder of the
drive, and to renew efforts next Mon
day to obtain the approximately $3.50,
more that is needed to achieve the
success that is so much hoped for. The
latest report is that pledges and cash
donations to date amount to about $4,-
700. ~
It is understood that MANY of the
workers have as yet been unable to

A corps of volunteer ladies joined
with WPA workers today at the WPA

and in making up dolls of cloth and
rubber to be distributed to needy chill
dren on Christmas eve. The toys were
donated by citizens but not in sui
ficient quantities to meet the needs
and Mrs. w. D. Payne, WPA dlrec-
tor, called for additional donations OF
this type at once.
Hundreds of used toys must be had
if all the underpfivileged children OF
the city and county are to De taken
care of at Christmas time, Mrs. Payn"
said, and nothing like enough have
been collected so far. Boy Scouts mad
rounds of homes donating toys, and
are prepared to call at othe" homes
where they are toys that will be given
The WPA, the Salvation Army, the
welfare department and the welfare
agency at the cotton mills are all CO.
operating in the undertaking. After
the toys have been repaired and when
the dolls have been made, they will
be labelled by Salvation Army work
ers, and the Boy Scouts will swing
into action again on Christmas Eve
to distribute the presents to homes
where they are directed
A number of ladies in addition to
those directly connected with these
organizations are giving of their time
and effort to make the undertaking a
success, and they have expressed their
thanks to all citizens who have Co
operated so far, but say it is neces-
sary that others come to their assis-
lance if they are to meet the require
