The Shoals declaration reiterated the Grange’s stand for private opera- tion of the property, but with a compromise stipulation that “unless a satisfactory lease can be effected soon the property should be operated | by the government.” The Grange also voted to adopt the policy expressed by Senator Mc- Nary, that “unless a comprehensive program, including tariff revision, can passed at the short session, we favor calling a special session of congress for the purpose.” On the question of prohibition the delegate body insisted that the gov- ernment “honestly strive to make this country dry.” Other resolutions adopted at the final session approved continuation of the present immigration restric- tion policies, approval of practical methods of cooperative control of the farm loan syste equate state and federal appropriation for indem- nification of owners of cattle which react to the tuberculin test, and the restoration by the federal radio com- mission of full-time allotment to ap stations serving the farmer. TROOPS MARCH 10 NAB REBEL Bulgarian Government Orders Arrest of Belligerent Macedonian Sofia, Bulgaria, Nov. 24.—(AP)— Troops were marching today on Petritch, stronghold of Ivan Mich: loff, leader of the belligerent tion of the Macedonian revolutio! ary party. The order that soldiers arrest Michailoff came after an ex- change of defiances between the leader and the government. It was expected that bitter fighting would ensue in the attempt to capture Michailoff. The government sent an ultimatum ordering him to discontinue all acts of terrorism and to abandon his march on Sofia. He replied that federal members of the Bulgarian government deserved death and termed them the greatest enemies of the Macedonian people. The government then sent troops after Michailoff and rushed large contingents of soldiers into Sofia from the outlying districts to rein- force the garrison. Strong sentry forces were pieced around all gov- ernment buildings and a doubled po- lice guard protected members of the cabinet. Athanase Buroff, foreign min- ister, acknowledged in parliament. that the government was powerless to crush the revolutionary move- ment. This statement added to the fears of the population which be- lieved that general martial law was inevitable. Should the situation force the cabinet to resign this would prob- ably only throw the country into further confusion and possibly give Michailoff the upper hand. The main purpose of his threatened march is to show that he is master of the revolutionary forces and to insist upon their demands being granted. He also wishes to remove y violence all those who have joined rival Macedonian groups. 90 POLICEMEN Says Cleveland, Nov. 24.—The steam- shio Vestris was a floatin> death- trap for months before it finally went to the bottom with 114 people in mid i This is the rtion of Miss Ilse Ludwig of Cleveland, who made a voyage from Buenos Aires to New York on the Vestris last spring.

It is understood that pleurisy in the king’s type of lung congestion is nothing out of the ordinary, and that therefore there need be no anxiety on this account. London, Nov. 24.—()—Hope that the worst of King George’s illness was past was replacing today the alarm that followed the announce- THK BISMARUK THISUNIE Physicians Report There Is No} ment that there was congestion in one lung. All court life, however, has been stopped. At the end of an anxious day of watching for news from the sick room, the nation was somewhat re- lieved when the offi bulletin of the king’s physicians, Sir Dawson of Penn and Sir Stanley Hew issued. The statement sai “The king @ quieter day. His temperature lower and there was no further extension of the mischief in the lung.” If the king’s illness now follows a mild course leading to recovery, there is little doubt that he will be lescent to he did dur- st serious illness about four go. His physician at that time ed him never to spend another winter in England but to seek a milder climate. The king, however, set public devotion to duty first. The Daily Mail today said that despite his illness the king seemed very cheerful when he was visited by a number of personal friends. The newspaper said that he had not been informed of his lung infec- tion. While it was announced that the Prince of Wales, who is hunting in east Africa, was being kept posted on his father’s progress, it was stated that no arrangements had been made for the prince’s return and that his plans had not ‘been al- tered.
