In an answer to Senator Caraway, | Democrat, Arkansas, Secretary of the Treasury Mellon last night again denied he was interested in the manufacture of liquor. His only interest in such a business, the Secretary wrote Senator Caraway, had been the purchase of $25,000 of stock of the Overholt distil- lery, which “absolutely ceased from the manufacture of whisky and from doing business” several years before the pro- hibition amendment went into effect. His holding of the liquor stock, the Secretary’s letter sald, had been ex- ploited since his name was first under consideration for appointment to the Treasury by President Harding. “This matter was exploited firs read, hen my name was under co; THE GERM DETECTIVE By the Assoclated Press. BIRMINGHAM, England, October 4. —Public ownership of agricultural land, coal mines, transportation facilities, electric power and life insurance com- panies was favored in the platform adopted by the annual conference of the Labor party here yesterday. On this platform the party will stand for the general elections that are expected next Spring. s The program, introduced by J. Ram- say MacDonald, the Labor leader and former prime minister, was embodied in a 50-page booklet. It was prepared by the executive committee of the party and circulated among the delegates prior to the vote. The booklet declared that there could | be no equality between labor and capi- | tal while the suppliers, labor, were kept in one class and the owners in another. Banks, said another section, must con- sider the interests of the nation as a whole and not the interests of finan- ciers. The program said further that the minimum wage law must be made ef- fective, and lhl{tdthe trades union act should be repealed. - Many angry clashes marked today's session of the conference, James Max- ton, extreme leader, usually being at least one of the combatants. ‘Maxton strongly objected to the Labor party's announced policy toward the Communist elements and suggested that the party would get a majority at the next general election if instead of get- ting the communists by the throat it would start to get capitalism by the throat. His declaration caused an up- Toar. Later MacDonald h‘::u Mn.an' ag ed in & warm excl of remarks.

Excluding the 15 original signatories, Russia was the fourth country to ac- tually deposit adherence, being preceded by Peru, Liberia and Rumania. Forty-two of 49 countries have either adhered or have announced the inten- tion of signing the pact. Afghanistan, Colombia, Ecuador, Hungary, Iceland and Paraguay have not yet answered. The State Department, in behalf of Seccetary Kellogg, said it had no views to disclose on what effect Russia’s sign- |ing the compact would have toward gaining recognition for that country from the United States. 6 Good Reasonshy You ets! it Should Patronize 45c0 Mark Better Quality—Courteous ‘Service— Larger Variety to Select From— Convenience—Economy-Unfailing Satisfaction There are man; the most skeptical able.
