FRANCE, ITALY AND JAPAN IN FIVE-POWER MEET Premature Reports Said England Already Had Sent Out Call for Session. Invitations to the proposed five-power naval conference will be issued within & few days from London. The invitations will go to France, Italy and Japan. Great Britain and the United States have been engaged in negotiations looking to such a confer- ence on armament limitation. The invitations to the conference will not be sent out jointly by Great Britain and the United States, but by Great Britain, It has been suggested in some quar- ters that the invitations to the naval conference would be a joint affalr, is- sued by this country and Great Britain. Decision Favors London. It was learned today, however, on high authority that the invitations to the conference would soon be sent out and that they would be sent cut by the government in London and uot from ‘Washington. The expectation is that France and Italy will undertake negotiations be- tween themselves regarding the matter of naval limitations and their attitude to the propesed conference. The United States and Great Britain have already gone far along the road toward an agreement in_the matter of the limi- tation of auxiliary naval craft, includ- ing cruisers, destroyers and sul es. France and Italy have their own prob- lem to consider in this matter. They must consider the question of naval power in the Mediterranean and safeguarding their lines of communica- tion. Another angle to their problem is that which takes into consideration the naval power of Great Britain as it affects themselves and particularly Britain’s naval strength in the Medi- terranean. Parley in January. The invitations which are to be is- sued will call for a conference of the powers the latter part of January, and probably in London. There is no longer any necessity of delaying the issuance of invitations to the proposed naval conference, it is be- lieved. Indeed, if the nations are to properly prepare for engaging in such a conference during January they must have notice within the immediate fu- ture. The co-operation of France, Italy and Japan in the conference on naval limitation is highly essential if the proj- ect is to be successful. While the United States and Great Britain have in a large part ironed out their differences over cruisers, it is well understood that the other three nations will have important claims to advance. LONDON HAS NOT ACTED. LONDON, Sepetmber 18 (#).—Inquiries were made today at the British foreign office regarding a report that Prime Minister Ramsay MacDonald had in- vited France, Japan and Italy to par- ticipate with England and the United States in a five-power naval conference 1o be held in London the third week in January. b2 High British quarters heard with sur- prise reports printed in London and New York that Prime Minister Mac- Donald already had invited the powers. There was no official confirmation available of reports that London will finally be chosen as the scene of a five- wer conference, but it was generally lieved here that since much of the spade work has been done in England, London would likely be the most central place to suggest for such a meeting. Much depends on the attitude of France, Italy and Japa#, and it already has been suggested that France favors some neutral city in the event of & meeting being called. Premier Visits King.

VARE SLATE SWEEPS IN' PHILADELPHIA Campbell Leads Dugan by 160,669 Votes—La Guardia Wins in New York. By the Assoclated Press. PHILADELPHIA, September 18.— United States Senator-elect William S. Vare still had a tight grasp on the leadership of the Philadelphia Repub- lican organization today despite the efforts of the Republican League to un- seat him. The candidates slated by Vare for nomination for county offices swept to an overwhelming victory in yesterday's primary election, the real fight being for control of the party machinery. The battle centered around the of- fice of register of wills, for which Wil- liam F. Campbell, slated by the organi- zation for a third term, was opposed by John F. Dugan, candidate of the Republican League. Campbell Leads Dugan. The complete vote was Campbell, 277,- 842, and Dugan, 117,173. The other Vare-slated candidates, George E. Kemp, for:city treasurer, and Fred Schwartz, jr., for coroner, won by even larger pluralities. The Republican League, headed by Thomas Raeburn White, for years a leader in independent Republican circles, was supported by Mayor Harry A. Mackey and his friends. Mr. Mackey, who managed Vare's senatorial campaign in 1926, broke with the organ- ization when the Senator-elect refused to slate John Dugan, a member of thf‘s mayor's cabinet, for register o* wills. ‘The mayor denied accusation of Vare leaders that he was using the Repub- lican League to further his ambition to be Governor of Pennsylvania. He de- clared that his action was solely in the interest of econmy and efficiency in municipal government and clean elections and to defeat the “fee-grab- bing” candidates of the organization. A “Personal” Victory. The result of the primary was hailed by Vare leaders as a personal victory for the Senator-elect. “The vote in reality,” said James M. Hazlett, chairman of the Republican city committee, “is a mandate of the people that they will not tolerate a mayor playing poliics. I want to em- phasize that all of the ward leaders who supported the ticket recognized the leadership of William S. Vare and will acknowledge it in the future.” Harry C. Davis, executive director of the Republican Central campaign committee, said: “The overwhelming victory of the candidates of the Republican organiza- tion is a triumph of Senator Vare. To him is due the credit of this great victory over men and interests who conspired not only against his political leadership, but sought to take advantage of his iliness to drive him to his grave. The victory further solidifies the lead- ership of Senator Vare of the Repub- lican organization.” LA GUARDIA WINS IN NEW YORK. Will Oppose James J.

Butler. By a Staff Correspondent of The Star. QUANTICO, Va., September 18.—The mayor and city council of the small community hedged in on all sides by ths Marine base here, aroused by a civic urge to “clean up” that is founded on economic necessity, set out on a broad scale today to force all undesirables from the town, while Maj. Gen. Smedley D. Butler, commanding the Marine base, applauded. Aroused himself in the last several weeks by a series of automobile acci- dents in which members of the Marine command were injured, Gen. Butler, on the basis of reports to him, promulgated an order that the town of Quantico would be out of bounds to Marines, and since last Saturday the little town has been almost a deserted village. Mayor Confers With Butler. Mayor A. E. McInteer and nine mem- bers of the city council called on Gen, Butier yesterday, and after a conference, during which the city officials assured him of their earnest desire to co-operate in making the community more desira- ble, set out on their own account to read the riot act to bootleggers and other objectionables. Immediate results were forthcoming. The mayor today busied himself in raiding places where whisky is known to have been sold and aided by fellow citizens he posted word at the resi- dence of a man regarded as the ring- leader of the lawless element to leave town by tonight. Mayor McInteer was confident the man would leave. Mayor McInteer pointed out teday that the element in Quantico which furnishes the conditions objectionable to Gen. Butler is transient for the most part, composed of hangers-on, both men and women, who exploit the desires of the Marines. Acting on reports of the sale of whisky brought from Richmond last week, Federal authorities last Fri- day night conducted raids on several establishments. Gen. Butler, who in- vestigated reports made to him before any action was taken, was seated in an automobile at the head of the main street when the Federal authorities came out from their raids and saw visible evidence to substantiate the reports of unwholesome conditions. Whereupon he issued the order. Marine Base Surrounds Town. The town of Quantico is entirely sur- rounded by the Marine base and until about six years ago was under ‘the supervision of the commanding officer so far as police regulations were con- cerned. At that time the town was in- corporated and quite naturally the lead- ing citizens were elevated o positions of authority. The report made to Gen. Butler by Mayor McInteer and members of the city council was that it is very difficult for men who have been living together for years to interfere with each other. Gen. Butler agreed that he could not impose himself upon a munlclpll.l:{, but he informed the mayor emphatical that it was his duty to protect the Ma- rine command and that the town would be barred to their entrance until places where liquor is sold were cl and other unwholesome conditions obliter- ated. Gen. Butler planned this afternoon to have Mayor McInteer attend the regu- CAROLINAFLOGGERS AGAIN APPLY LASH 10 UNION WORKER Labor Speaking Stand ‘Also . Reported Wrecked at Kings Mountain. 7 TEXTILE MEN ARE HELD ON MOB VIOLENCE CHARGE Court Scores Disorders as “a Dis- grace to Gaston County.” Dynamite Is Stolen. By the Associated Press. CHARLOTTE, N. C., September 18.— Cleo Tessner was taken from an office maintained in Kings Mountain by the National Textile Workers’ Union during last night and flogged, it was learned here today. Tessner came to Charlotte and reported to offclals of the Inter- national Labor Defense. Tessner said that three men took him from the office, clalming they had a warrant for his arrest. A speakers stand erected by the union in Kings Mountain and from which union leaders addressed mill workers every Saturday night was dynamited a half hour before Tessner was scized. The blast awakened most of the people in the city. Otherwise no damage was done by the explosion. Tessner was arrested two weeks ago on complaint of mill officials, when he posted circulars inside the mill. County Recorder Horace Kennedy found him guilty of trespassing but gave him a suspended sentence. Ben Wells Again Chased. Ben Wells, who was taken from a rooming house in Gastonia 10 days ago and flogged, reported today an at- tempt was made last night to seize him again, this time in Charlotte. He said he was walking on one of the principal streets of the city when an automobile drove to the curb and he heard a man say, “There he is, let’s get him.” Wells saild he ran, going to the headquarters of the International Labor Defense by a circuitous route. A state- ment was issued this morning by J. Louis Engdahl, national secretary of the International Labor Defense, in which he said: “Hardly had the eal filled in the grave of the mart; mill worker Ella May Wiggins before she same Loray mill, Gastenia, mur- der gangs that took her life were again active. One of these sought to kidnap Ben Wells for the second time, appearing openly on the streets of Charlotte Tuesday night, Wells es- Tdle. g North Carolina caped.” o Tegal has been machinery in textile centers, which with charges ranging from and flogging to conspiracy to over- throw the Government and murder, all growing out of strike violence, rested today for the first time in almost a month, preparatory to resuming its dell;n‘ with strike cases later this week. ‘The courts became idle late yester- day after Judge Thomas J. Shaw, sit- ting as a magistrate in lleu of a grand jury, ordered seven men, held as being members of the mob which early last week kidnaped three men ted with the National Textile Workers'|in Union and flogged one of them. Seven others arrested were released. Those ordered held by Judge Shaw were placed under $7,500 bail each. ‘The men were alleged to have taken Ben Wells, British Communist labor organizer, and C. M. Lell and C. D. Saylor, Gaston County members of the National Tetxile Workers’ Union, from Gastonia to a lonely spot in Cabarrus County, where Wells was flogged. Judge Shaw found probablg cause after a week's inquiry for c es of kidnap- ing, conspiracy to kidnap, assault with a deadly weapon with intent to kill and false imprisonment and arrest.
