In this case the 20th really means the 13th, which is the point that the assocla. tion has gone at lengths to impress upon subscribers. Honeymooners on Platform The concert tomorrow will be given by Nanctte Guilford, prima donna soprano with the Metropoli- tan Opera, and Max Rosen, known in Europe and America as a violin- ist of high caliber. The pair were married a month or 80 ago, which was the chief reason they wanted to appear on the same platform here. Originally Miss Gull- ford was to have appeared here at the first concert, and when the re- | quest camg, from New York to have | her appear with Max Rosen instead | the 1ocal ofticials gratefully acceded. | A little later they read of how the | couple were married. | The appearance of the pair here | will be one of the first times, i not the very first, when a joint appear- lance has been possible since the marriage. Immediately after the | knot was tied Mr. Rosen had to fill his vigorous efforts at general re- form and partly as the result of his radical fundamentalist views. He came even more prominently into view two years ago when he shot and killed D. E. Chipps, wealthy lumberman, in the study of the church. He was indicted and tried for murder, but was acquitted on his plea of self-defense. ‘The pastor has repeatedly charged from the pulpit that threats have been made against his life and the ichurch establishment. Recently he {has been unusually vigorous jcampaigning against alleged | conditions here, ’ Dr. Norris was charged a number of yeats ago with burning a church of which he was pastor, but was ac- quitted after a long and stormy trial, one of the most sensational in the history of the state. He main- tained that his enemies burned that church and laid the blame on him.

The premier won a victory over his critics of the left side of the chamber more signal than his most sanguine supporters had hoped. In- stead of a maximum of 50 he got & majority of 64 on one vote of con- fidence and thia rose to 7¢ on the second vote. The first vote came when the pre- mier put the motion of confidence against a radical-socialist motion for priority for the order of the day. Tantamount to a motion of non-con- fidence the radical-soclalist motion was rejected, 317 to 253, a major- ity of €¢. Confidence was then vot- ed 335 to 251, & majority of T4 Radical leaders were intensely disappointed at the result. In spite of appeals to party discipline, seve eral radicals voted with the govern- ment or abstained from voting. It was understood today the recalci- trants would be summoned to appear before the executive com- mittee with a view of their exclu- sion from the party. The premier before the vote wa taken made an appeal for full and undivided support for his govern- ment while it was engaged in set- tling those questions which were the aftermath of the war, Buch settle- ment, he said, would assure univer- sal peace and prosperity. Negotiations He vigorously combatted the idea that now that the franc had been stabilized parliament could afford to engage in “politics.” “The government,” he continued, “is engaged in delicate negotiations for the liquidation of all questions holding over from the war and re- quires the prestige of the solld back- ing of parliament behind it. If you propose to overthrow the cabinet, do it now.” The premier said if the eventual report of the committee of experts on reparations failed to do justice to France, the government could in- sist upon reverting to the conditions of the Dawes plan and require pay- ments sufficient to pay the war debts to the United States and Great Brit- ain and to provide for the interior debt incurred for the reconstruction of northern France. The premier said that it was the intention of the cabinet to demand that parliament discuss and ratify the Kellogg pact renouncing war “in order to show how much France fs determined to emphasize her desire for peace.” Buch ratification is un- necessary under the French consti- tution which makes the signatures of the president, the premier and the minister of forcign affairs the only ones needed. STIR ANTI-CUBAN FEELING INHEICO i Disturbers Making Capital of | Metia Slaying | Mexico City, Jan. 12 (I—The |slaying of Julio Antonio Metla has |Tesulted in agitation by communists and students against the govern. ment of Cuba, of which country Mel- la was an ex-patriate. The students’ federation of the federal district sent a message to | President Portes Gil today saying {that in view of the “shamcless at- titude of the Cuban government, which apparently believes Mexico to | be the proper fleld for its crimes, it is necessary in the name of Mexi. |can dignity to sever diplomatic re- lations.” A similar message wam sent to the permanent congressional |committee which functiéns during |the recess of congress. The national confederation of Mexican students issued a statement urging an investigation of the slay- ing and meverance of relations with {Cuba if the Cuban government were proved guilty. Similar declarations were issued by several other organi- | zations of workgrs, students and communists. Love Affair in Background? Police today claimed, however, that they had a clue that indicated {thd slaying was not a political crime {but that it was due to an amorous entanglement. Jose Magrinat, who | was underatood to be the person who |talked with Mella shortly before he |was slain, was questioned by po- lice. He denied he had warned the Cuban agitator that agents were in | Mexico from Cuba to kill him. Mag- rinat was said to have expressed the belief to the police that Senorita | Tina Modotti, who was with Mella when he was slain, was involved in ilhe crime. | HEADS CONFERENCE B. H.
