WORK'S RENOVAL ASKED BY DANIELS Former Navy Hoad Scores Him for Sinclair Ol Lease Waynesville, N. C, Oct. 23 P— Josephus Daniels Raleigh publisher and secretary of the navy during the administration of President Wood- row Wilson in an address here last night called upon Herbert Hoover, republican presidential nominee, to remove Drl Hubert Work, his party's pational committee chairman. Mr. Daniels charged that the Coo- lidge administration is carrying out the policies of Albert B. Fall, in *‘making royalty oil contracts” and that Dr. Work had knowledge of the Galt Creek lease to the Sinclair in- terests. “Unless,” he said, “the authorities of the national republican commit- tee removes Dr. Work for his lease of the Salt oil lands the republican party officlally assumes responsibil- ity for that wrong transaction, as it was compelled to assume full blame for the corrupt conspiracy of le: ing Teapot Dome, when Will Hays took Sinclair's money to pay off the debt incurred in electing a republi- can president.” The former secretary of the navy declared that “the latest exposure of secret leasing of oil lands, shows that Albert B. Fall is still, in fact, secretary of interior and that the re- publican national committee must bave a new chairman if that party expects to retain the confidence of even its most lonl stand patters.” CHIVA WARNED OF HONARGHIST PLOT General Chang Huseh-Liang Is- stes Statement From Mukden — Peking, Oct. 23 UP—Chinese newspapers today published a proc- lamation issued by General Chang Huseh-Liang, ruler of Manchuria, at Mukden, in which he warned China and Manchuria against a plot to restore the Manchu dynasty. The proclamation charged that Chang Tsung-Chang, governor of Shantung until ousted by the na- tionalists, was planning a comeback from his retreat at Port Arthur. He would head a royalist army with the aim of establishing the former “boy emperor” Hsuan Tung on the dragon throne at Peking. Chang Hsueh-Lian accused Chang Tsung-Chang of seeking to aid the deposed dynasty and of having held several secret conferences with the places. Several trains were derail- ed on smaller lines, but there was not loss of life. Traffic was para- lyzed. The city of Briancon was com- pletely isolated from the rest of the department. The rivers were con- tinuing to swell today. LONDON HIT BY SHALL TORNADO Twister Leaves Wreck and Ruin io Path London, Oct. 23 UP—Unroofed buildings, shattered glass and fallen masonry today marked the path of 2 minfature tornado which swept upon London last night with & vio- lence rarely experienced in England. It had been raining steadily but otherwise the weather was farily calm when people were startied by a sudden roar and whirled helpless- ly around amid crashing glass and falling stones, tiles and bricks. Oxford Circus and the neighbor- ing streets were the center of the storm’s violence. In that neighbor- hood parts of the roofs of several buildings were ripped off. Plate glass windows _of the big shops were blown in. " Goods and dressmaker's models displayed in the windows were whisked out into the street by the wind. Busses Rock Passing omnibuses rocked like ships on a stormy sea, to the terror of passengers. Two of these huge automobiles were stopped and driv- en backwards by the force of the wind. Buildings exposed to the full ghock of the storm shook as if be- ing rocked by a small earthquake. The wind lifted off a large part of the roof of the labor exchange and dropped it into the street, which fortunately had been almost emptied of people previously by the heavy rain, the glass dome of the college of music crashed in to the alarm of 40 pupils, who escaped in- jury. 8igns hanging over the street were torn off by hundreds. Smashes Windows The wind invaded a big restaurant through smashed windows and swept tables of flowers, other decor- ations and glass and plate. The diners were covered with dirt from the outside and soot from the chim- neys. Having expended most of its fury in the Oxford Circus neighborhood, the storm swept northward, break- ing windows, hurling down signs and tiles over a path of 200 yards wide. Only two persons were injured, this small casualty list was attrib- uted to the rain, which had cieared the streets before the storm broke in all its fury.

SARNOEF MAY HEX NEW CORPORATION Will Run Gombine of Keith and Radio Gompany New York, Oct. 23 UP—A plan for the formation of a new entertain- ment enterprise involving the Radlo Corporation of America, the Keith- Albee-Orpheum Corporation and F. ®. 0. Producers, Inc., was before the stockholders of the Keith-Albee interests today. The plan calls for formation of a holding company to be known Radio - Keith - Albee Corporation which would acquire the common stock of Keith-Albee-Orpheum and | the capital stock of F. B. O. and would issue stock to Radio Corpora- tion in return for the use of certain patents and an exchange of services in the broadcasting and amusement field. The plan for the new com- pany was explained in a letter sent to Keith-Albee-Orpheum sharehold- ers. Coatrol With Keith .... ~. Control of the new company would remain with the Keith-Albee- Orpheum Corporation, stock of the new company being issued on the! following basis: 1,100,000 shares of class A stock to Keith-Albee-Or- pheum, 500,000 shares of class B stock to Radio and 200,000 res of a stock to F. B. O. The two classes of stock would have equal voting righta but dividends would be paid on B stock only after A rtock had been paid a $2 annual dividend. Sarnoff Head David Sarnoff, vice president and general manager of Radio, would be chairman of the board of the new company. The plan will become operative when 51 per cent of the shares of Keith-Albee-Orpheum Corporation have been deposited with the Em- pire Trust Company of 120 Broad- way, which has been named deposi- tary. Holders of 40 per cent of the stock already are said to have agreed to the plan. November 15 has been set as the deadline for de- posit of stock. A similar offer is to be made to F. B. O. stockholders later. The plan marks the entry of Keith-Albee-Orpheum into the talking movie field, as its contrac- val arrangements with radio would give it the use of photophone, ra- dio’s talking movie device. A co-op- erative booking service for artists employed by the National Broad- casting Company, a radio subsidiary, and Keith-Albee-Orpheum also is provided for as well as the broad- casting of joint programs and co-op- eration between the two companies in the development of public elec- trical entertainment. Large Assets The assets of the new company will be approximately $100,000,000, Radio’s evaluation not being includ- ed as its relations with the holding company will be purely contractural Keith-Albee-Orpheum operates a chain of nearly 250 motion picture and vaudeville theaters while F. B. O. is engaged in producing and dis- tributing motion pictures.

She can be be- cause she has profited from her worldly experience.” “The younger generation think more intelligently about fitting their children for life,” sald Miss Pnney. “For one thing they don't tell their children myths about their origin.” HIS BUSINESS DIED Boy Lost Wealth With Death of Two-Headed Calf.
