FREE SEAMEN BILL HAS BEEN DEFEATED American Propesals Voted Down 5 at Genoa Gonoa, June l4.~—~American pro- posals that seameon submit to the in- ternational conference of labor of the league of nations a proposition to make seamen all over the world free men, was defeated at the prelim- Ynary meeting of international sea- tmen's conference today. The project was favored by Italy, Holland, Nor- way, Germany, Sweden and Japan, and was opposed by England, France, Belgium and Spain. While as t6 na- flons the proposition had & majority, the vote by delegates stood 15 to 28 with five refusing to vote and ten absent Amenrican delegates at the meeting were Andrew Furuseth, president of international seamen's union; Paul Charenberg and Oscar Carlson. Fur- useth told the conference that at pres. ont European seamen had the status of “serfs, being unable to énjoy the liberties and rights acknowledged belonging to all men. He explained that the American seamen's act was passed to induce American citizens to g0 to #a, which he sald, they would not do because their status was not that of free men. A#8 a vesult of thia law he declared, native Americans going to sea had increased from'about seven per cent to 47 per cent in the Inst four years. “It s my opinion,” he added, “there will be an effort on the part of the International conference of labor of the league of nations to nulify the American seamen’'s act or at least prevent any other nations from adopt- ing the same kind of law. The re won for this is that when the seamen act is In full operation it would be impossible to have & ship carry Dutoh officers with a Chinese crew or Eng- Wsh officers with & Hindu crew as 76 per cent. of the crew must speak the language used by the officers. Each nation must then provide seamen from its own popuiation and the tendency would be give each nation a fair pro- portion of wea power in aoccordance with its sea coast and its population.” Furuseth, Charenberg and Carlson have not been invited to be present at the conference even as observers. How Do They Get That Way, Justice Wondering A well known justice of the peace, who was called updn yesterday to upite in matrimony a very devoted young couple, i& since after develop- ments, wondering “how do they get that way.” After tying the nuptial knot so tightly that even the sword of Alexander could not undo it, the jue- tice announced his fee. The bride and groom went ecarefully through thelr pocketbook and pockets re- spectively, and announced that all that was keeping them from the Rocky Hill avenue residence was nnsl dollar and seventy-five cents. They proffered the dollar “on account” and departed upon the sea of matrimony svith seventy-five cents their mmll oapitalk . & ON CITY ITEMS A Victrola for $1.00.

Di Gebriele appeared in Oaxaca early nwluming himsel fto be the Savior, and so worked on the super- stitious and ignorant Indians that they crucified him, using rallway spikes to nail him to a fide cross. He was taken down the next day and survived his ordeal, being viewed by thousands on Easter. News of the crucifixion reached the capital of the state, Tehuantepec, and the governor ordered ‘Di Gabriele brought there. A great procession fol- lowed the cart in which he was trans- ported. Later the mayor of Tequizist- lon, who acted as the Roman centur- ion and four other principal figures in the crucifixion, were arrested. DECISION UPHELD Court of Errors and Appeals Gives Water Company Right to; Divert Stream. Trenton, N. J., June 15.—The court of errors and appeals in an opinion Jjust rendered has upheld the action of the state board of conservation and development in granting to the Eliza- beth Town Water company, the Plain- field Union Water cempany and the Middlesex Water company permission to divert 20,000,000 gallons of water daily from the Raritan and Millstone rivers at a point just above their junctions. In a recent opintbn the supreme court upheld the state board's action following an attack upon it by the city of New Brunswick on the ground that its water supply from the same source would be jeopardized if the diversion were allowed to the three companies mentioned, which serve respectively the cities of Elizabeth, Plainfleld and other municipalities in Middlesex county, as well as Somerset county communities. In all nearly 30 cities and towns having a combined popula- tion of more than 200,000 are sup- plied by these concerns.

Staff Correspondent Marion, Ohio, June 15.—Marion is simply swollen up with pride—an ounce more and it will break the galluses it wears. From Clarence Sipes, the little Quaker, who runs the little “any- where-for-a.aquarter” jitney car, to Lou Miller, who is close to 80 and one of the first printers Garren G. Harding hired to work in the dingy pressroom of the Marfon Star, they “know there never was a man like Harding.” But that doesn’'t mean that Marion thinks Harding will be next president by any means. At least half of the Marion folks never dreamed he'd get the nomina- tion and there are still a lot of them who think “he won't cut the mus- tard.” But that doesn’t prevent them from celebrating the “home town' victory in the G. O. P. nomination. DR. HARDING TELLS OF SON’S BOAST all the ‘When Boy, Warren Announced He ‘Would Be President of the Uinted States. George T. Harding. Mrs. Heber Votaw. Marion, Ohio, June 16.—"I'm going to grow up into a great man and be- come president myself.” That was Warren G. Harding's boast when he was 12 years old, ac- cording to his father, Dr. George T. Harding, who is still practicing medi- cine here. “It was on Washington's birthday in 1877, sald Dr. Harding. “The church bells were ringing. Warren was playing with some boys in the back yard. They stopped to listen. Then Warren first “announled his landidacy.’ " Dr. Harding was 76 years old the day his son was nominated, and Sen- ator Harding will be 55 years old on Nov. 2, 1920—election day. Harding's sister, Mrs. Heber Vo- taw, was for 11 years a Baptist mis- sionary in Burma. Later she has been doing social service work in ‘Washington.
