Paris, Nov. 27.—Preparations of a separate treaty between Turkey and the United States is under con- sideration at Lausanne, says a dis- patch to the Temps. The correspondent suggests that this perhaps was the subject of yesterday’s long convention between Richard Washburn Child and Ismet Pasha. fj TURKS ADAMANT (By the Associated Press.) Lausanne, Nov. 27.—Turkish dele- gates to the Near East conference today prepared the way for Turkey's fight for abandonment of the special extra territorial privileges enjoyed by foreigners, by distributing copies of the famous “national fact.” This convention adopted by the Turkish national assembly embodies the Ottoman demands at Lausanne, Article VI of this pact insists that Turkcy’s complete independ- ence is necessary for the country’s national developement and that every judicial and financial restric, tion imposed from without, will be opposed. The Lausanne conference is prov- ing a good second to Versailles. in the large ceived from peoples and races de- manding their recognition and in- dependence. < The arrival of the advance guard of Russians headed by M .Rakow- sky, president of the Ukraine re- public, has given new zest to the conference deliberations. On his a rival last night M. Rakowsky said that the Ukraine stood “cleanly be- hind Turkey in all she may ask for in open or neutral waterways, which means go much to southern Russia.” The Russian delegation to the Near East conference sent a com- munication the president of the con- ference today demanding the ad- mission of the Russian répresenta. tives for the discussion of all ques- tions on the Agenda so’ that-a dur- able peace might be assigned, _ FEATURE U. 8, DEMAND ¥ (By,.the Associated Press.) London, Nov. 27,—The statement of Ambassador Child at Lausanne last Saturday is the outstanding feature of the London morning newspapers, which having no Sun- day issues, take the first opportuni- ty today to-discuss what some term “dramatic American intervention” and “the American bombshell.” Although some regard the Ambas- sador’s pronouncement as intended to give notice to an American deter- mination to have a share in the Mosul oil fields, this view is not universally put forth ang several in- fluential papers treat Mr. Child’s declaration as timely and welcome. The Times says: “The statement is of wider importance than any- thing yet settled at Lausanne. It contains no new ‘doctrine but reaf- firms an old doctrine at a*moment which has been carefully chosen.” It suggests Americans do not in- tend to allow anything to happen without protest, which would make more difficult. the maintenance of. American gights when they come to make their own treaty with Turkey. The Daily Mail believes there is no difference between the views of the British and American govern- ments respecting the quality of op- portunities in the Near East. Mr. Child’s speech is welcomed by the West Minister Gazette, “as at least the beginning of a recogni- tion that the United States cannot wholly disinterest herself “from European problems.” Lord Curzon, the British foreign secretary today authorized an of- ficial, statement to the press that England supports’ the American “open door” policy in Turkey, and regards thé San Remo agreement for division of the Mosul oil district as null and void. . DELINQUENT TAX LIST SHORTER The delinquent tax list of Burleigh county is approximately one-fifth shorter than last year, County Audj- tor Frank Johnson said today.

The tests, however, show a considerable variation ir: the amount of gluten in the samples from the same locality, and for that reason the decision was made that it would be impossible to accurately construct such a map. The lowest test of the 147 samples was 8.6 per cent gluten, a sample from Donnybrook, but in the same county, Ward, samples ranged up to 12.6 per cent.

Phimmer, commissioner of the | United States shipping board, de- \clared in a speech prepared for de- llivery today before the Middlewest Merchant Marine and Foreign Trade conference. Alarmed at the possibility the American ships will take from them some 68 percent of American exports which are now carried in foreign ships, the foreign shippling inter- ests are using every possible means to discourage the upbuilding of the merchant marine in this country, Mr. Plummer said. “They've been feeding their, cattle in our pasture so long that they’ve come to think they own: the land,” he declared, “so when we start to put in some stock of our own they proceed to charge us with about erything from™trespass to man- slaughter.” Every sort of discrimination has been practiced against American ships in foreign trade, Mr. Plummer said, hut when Americans propose to do a little discriminating in favor of their own vessels British inter- ests charge the United States is try- ing to create a monopoly. | ) \ AY, NOVEMBER 27, 1922 CLAIMS HE _ HASSOLVED GRAVITATION |Cause Ascribed by Capt See To Invisible Ether Waves DEMONSTRATES THEORY U. S.. Astronomer Uses Mag- nets in Developing New- ton’s Law (By the Associated Press) San Francisco, Nov. 27.—Claim to discovery .of the cause of gravitation —something that Sir Isaac Newtor., discoverer of the law of gravitation a could not find—is made by an Am- ‘jerican naval officer, Captain T. J. Je} ; See, government astronomer at the} Mare Island navy yard near here. Captain See announced his discov- ery in a lecture before the Califor- nia Academy of Science. Discovery by Captain See of the cause of magnetism, also announced. in the lecture, led to the finding of a definite connection between mag- netism and gravity. Both, -he sai are due to invisible ether waves tra-| veling -across the heavenly with the speed of light. For forty years Captain See has spaces been doing research work in magnet- ! ism and gravity. The astronomer said his theory is a distinct development on Newton’s law’ of gravitation. Magnetism, he explained, is a million times more powerful than the corresponding force of gravitation. Captain See demonstrated during his address that -a small magnet, when suspended by a thread near a large one, is pulled bodily toward the nearest pole of the large mag- net. Yet he showed while the nearer pole has the greater power, the re- moter power of the large magnet actually pulls back’ on the opposite end of a magnet needle suspended ‘by a thread about its center. The re- sult is to make the lines of force tension lines stretched like taut ropes. At the equator, therefore, _ the two poles of the earth’s magnetism | being equally distant, attract equal- ly in opposite directions. But at the poles, the needle stands on end and is pulled downward bodily by the magnetic force. By an extengion of the theory of the earth’s magnetism by gauss, cele- mathematician, in 1888; Captain Sée:draws. two -eonclu- sions; 1—That magnetism is due to the waves, the rotary motion of the ether particles being about the lines of! force, which is also confirmed by Faradays’ experiment of the mag- netic rotation of a beam of polarized light, 1845. - 5 2—As magnetism as connected with gravitation by See’s mathemat ical law of 1922, it follows that gravita- tion also is due to waves like those of magnetism.
