PATRIARCH GIVES § VIEW IN DISPUTE Is Willing to Resign to Bring End to Row—Hits League Appeal. B the Associated Press, LONDO! Februa 13.—An Ex- change telegraph dispatch from Sa- lonika says that the Most Rev. Con- stantive, ecumenical patriarch of the Greek Catholic Church, who was re- cently expelled from Constantinople by the Turkish government, had stat- ed he was ready to resign his claims 1o the patriarchate if necessary to facilitate a settlement of the Greco- Turkish dispite growing out of his expulsion It was added that the patriarch| deplored the action of the Greek gov- ernment in applyin to the League of Natious for redress.

But signs of a new Franco-Turkish rapprochement are visible.

Ruby, For- mer Operative. Four men were arraigned before United States Commissioner Mac- donald today and charged with con- spiracy, following their arrest for alleged violation of the prohibition law. They were: Terry Aloysius Rod- den of 1527 I street, Harry Maynard, John Chaconas and Harry lIsmer. They pleaded not guilty and Feb- ruary 24 was set for hearing. T. Morris Wampler represented the de- fendants, who are out on bond, and L. F. Summerall of the prohibition unit, appeared for the Government. Rodden was arrested Wednesday night ip his apartment and identified by both the prohibition agent and the informer who made the case as the man from whom the alleged liquor had been purchased. Rodden had been erroneously identifled previously, as Ralph E. Ruby, former prohibition agent, and when search was made for Rodden, after his apartment had been raided, agents thought as first they were after Ruby. This was cleared up whem Ruby was found not to be the suspect, and Rodden was identified, arrested and charged with violation of the law. Maynard and Roden are charged with possession of liquor, Chaconas and Ismer with both possession and transportation, and the quartet is charged with* conspiracy. sy Silk hosiery shipped from this to other countries last year was valued at $7,000,000.

LONDON, February 8.—Umbrellas with handles flat as pancakes have appeared in London and are consid- ered quite the thing among fashion- ably dressed young women. The umbrellas are altogether too unwieldly to be carrfed by the handle, 80 are attached to the arm by means of a heavy silk cord.
