By the Associated Press. PARIS, May 2.—Ras Tarfari, prince regent of Ethlopia (Abyssinia), will be the official guest of France for a week, beginning May 15, on the oc- casion of his visit, the principal ob- ject of which is to thank France in person for the support given by the French delegation to Ethiopia's suc- cessful application for admission to | the league of nations. The prince while here will have the opportunity of seeing 300 Ethiopian manuscripts, which are said to be {among the oldest Christian manu- | seripts in existence, comprising one |of the most prized treasures of the | French National Library. The question of giving Ethiopia a freer outlet for her products through the ¥rench colony of Diibouti (French Somaliland) has been raised in con- nection with the prince’s visit. It is officially stated, however, that France {has no intention of alienating any part of her African possessions and that discussion of the subject is not on the program for the prince's stay, although it may be brought up if he sees fit. Tt is understood the French government is favoradbly disposed to an arrangement under which Ethi- opia would use the French railroad to the sea.

By the Associsted Press, ATLANTA, May 2.—Two years ago Gov. Warren T. McCray was a dis- tinguished visitor to Atlanta when he attended the southeastern fair in charge of an exhibit of fine cattle from one of his Indiana farms. He departed happily with many blue ribbons. Today he is just one of more than 2,000 inmates of the Atlanta federal penitentiary, Within the brief span of thirty- six hours he was changed from gov- ernor to convict. The metamorphosis was made com- plete yesterday when the great iron gates of the prison clanged behind him. Inside, he was bathed, assigned to & cell and a regulation blue denim ul\llh‘rm and became simply “No. 17,746." Tho former governor was received yesterday from Indianapolis with a large party of federal prisoners to begin serving a ten-year sentence for using the mails to defravd. A forced jovial mood to cover the nervous straln _under which he was laboring was apparent in the crowded statlon, but he later greeted newspaper men and a few of his friends warmly. At the prisou there were no for- malities. He was recelved just as any ordinary prisoner is admitted and taken to his cell as soon as the routine a: mments were mad: 316 7th MAY 2, 1924, CARR FUNERAL SUNDAY. Burial at Durham, N.
