(By the A P.)— There was distinetly less' confidence i the Kemalist camp here today when it becamo thoroughly ‘under- atood that theré is now compiete unan- imity among the allies. The plans for dividing the allles having failed, it was realized that Kemal Pasha had the world atraved against them. - The Greek deicgates also came into line with ‘the three allied Colonel Mazarakis informing General Harington that Greece would “con- form to whatever measures the allied generals recommend.” 11 powers also as- sured the commander in chief that in case of necessity, “the whole Greek, rmy in Thrace will rally (0 the sup- port of Great Britain. il KEMAL PASUA IN TOUCH WITH HIS DELEGATES AT MUDANIA Mudania, Oct. 9—Mustapha Kemal Pacha keeps in continual touch with his delegates at Mudania over «a long distance” telephone line - recently in- stalled, 300 miles to Angora. Ismet Pasha *personally speaks with his chief several times daily, reporting him on the progress of .the negotia- tions and receiving instructions as to the exact procedure to be followed. There is consiant evidence of this dual direction of the negotiations, Is- impetuosity contrasting strangely with Kemal's cool and calculating inoderation. FORMER EMPRESS ZITA FEELS PINCH OF POVERTY Budapest, Oct. 9 (By the A. P.)—For- mer Empress Zita is anxious to leave Spain, where poverty compels hee ‘“to play the poor relation” according to Count Joseph Karolyi, the royalist Jeader, whose "return from Spain recently in- spired the royalists 1o bring her back to Hungary. 3 The former empress has sold all her Jewels, “according to the count. The in- come from her estates in Hungary is in- sufficient’ to mieet her expenses because of Mungary's depreciated currency. She is willing to ltve wth. her children in the castle of Goedello, near Budapest: and will promisc not to interfere in politics, the Toyalist leader claims. !

Lioyd George pointed out that re- fuzal to refer the matter to the league of pations came from other nations, not Engiand. Asked whether freeiom of the straits meant fortifications in the hands of some international body, the premier replied that thac would be for ihe league to decide. He also admitied that there should be. no interference with the straits either by Great Britain or any other nation. Otherwise, he add- 36, “that is mot internationalization.

Several of these cases had been pending in the courts for many ears.

Representative Burton conferred with President Harding today and, after campaigning in Ohio will return herc for the meeting this month of the allied debt commission with Great Britain's financial representatives. : “There arc many reasons why th allied debts should not be cancelled, said Representative Burton. First, they are binding obligations, a national debt,, and their ' cancellation would throw doudt on national credit which is an all- tmportant part of all commercial and in- Qustrial relations. “Second, these loans are not made from an abounding revenue, but were obtained by borrowing from our \people with no small dificulty and 'with a great deal of sacrifice. There was no thought at the time that they would not be repaid and indeed the law under which our people took our bonds provided for. their exchange in kind. “Third, the United States is sincere- 1y interested in world peace. If these debts were cancelled it would lead to an expansion of the military and naval establishments of other countries and ‘hereby bring a threat of war and all the waste it entails. “Fourth, proportionately, the in- crease in the debt of the United States s a result of the war is greater than that of the borrowers. The increase in taxation also is proportionately greater. “Further, while we recognize the wonderful sacrifices made by the allies during the war, their danger was more imminent and we have gained no ter- citory and are mnot expecting any targe indemnities. The general feeling abroad is that these debts ought to be_paid. Mr. Burton also declared against any further national, loans abroad adding that private credits for Amer- ican raw materials might and should be arranged, but that the United States treasury should not be called upon again to aid*any foreign country He did not appear to be impressed the league of nations, several of whose mcetings at Geneva he at- cemed like a big debating he said, declaring that a number of irrelevant and academic questions seemed to be receiving un- due attention.

Chairman Payne also an- nounced that Dr. A. Ross Hill, vice chair- man and director of foreign opcratons, would sail Friday to take charge of the expanded relief efforts. The executive committee, it was an- nounced at the opening of the convention, had placed in the chaifman’s hands all the organization's funds and facilities, ad- vising him o use them as he dcemed ad- visable. That action brousht an cxpres- sion of gratitude from President Harding, who further informed the convention in a message of greeting of his satisfaction at the willingness of the agency to co-oper- ate in Near East refef and again extend a helping hand across the seas. Ap- proval of the committee's action also was given by the convention through addi- tion of resolutions. In signally expanding the agency’s for- eign relief operations, Chairman Payne cabled the American committec at Athens to draw on the relief fund to the extent of $100.000 immediately.

S—(By the | but I want to tell vou to keep A. P.)—Clifford Hayes, a youth of nine- teen, was held incommunicado in the Somnerset county jail at ‘Somerville to- night on a warrant charging him with the first degree murder of the Rev. Bd- ward Wheeler Hall and Mrs. Eleanor Reintiadt Mills, on September 14. But if the authorities- who caused his snow a logical motive for his alleged act they have carefully withheld it. The explanation of Raymond Schneid- ner, 22, whose accusation caused Hayes' arrest, was that it was a case of mis- taken identity. Hayes, he said, thought he was shooting 15-year-old Pearl Bah- mer and her step-father, Nicholas Bab- mer. But .the only motive he”advanced for the crime was a sort of Quixotism on Hayes' part—a desire to right a sup- who, although married, admits he is in Tove with Pearl. Hayes' retort was that Schnelder was “a damned liar”, He admitted going to the deserted Phillips' farm, where the bodies were found, in search of Pearl and her stepfather. \ I They heard shots and screams, he said, where the shots seemed to come, obsery- ing an automobile dash away as they ran. Beneath the tree, he declares, they found the minister and the ehoir singer dead and—he added—Schneider bent down and stole the minister's watch. This Schneider hotly denied during the all-night grilling to which both youths were subjected. He in turn. accused Hayes of committing the theft. One of the most glaring discrepancies in Schnelder’s story is his assertion neither he nor Hayes tot ‘the boi except for the f the wateh—of which he accuses Hayes. It has. established by a beldted au- topsy that Mrs. Mills throat was cut from ear to ear, and her head almost der’ could not explain this. sabstully,; sife “He ?~ us how ‘the lova: Jetters written by Mrs.] Mills to ‘the ministér came to be scat- Tndependent Oil & Gas Ce., of Okia-tered about he scene—or who propped one of the: minister's cards against the sole. of his shoe, as if to make sure of identification. His story does tally remarkably, how- ever withthe first statement attribut- ed 0 Mrs. Hall after the murders were were discovered,—that her theory of the double slaying was *mistaken identity.” This: statement later was repudiated by 1 Miss Sally ‘Peters confidant fuf Mrs, Hail, who said the rector's widow could imagine no motive, except ibly that of robbery, for the murders. w| Although they openly expressed con- fidence that the case had been practi- cally solved, -the uthorities were still hard at work tonight trying to reconcile all the tangled kein of evidence with Schnelder’s story—or to batter him down further admissions which _would make his story more plausible. He was subjected to repeated grillings throughout the day. A part of Schneider’s story—as much as she could have been expected to know —awas corfoborated by Pearl Bahmer. On:the night of September 14, she said she was out with Schneider, remaining until about 8 o'clock. When she return- ed home, she continued, she found hel step-father on the porch, intoxicated and consented to0 g0 With him-while he at- tempted to “walk off” the cffects of his drinking. . They passed Schneider, Hayes and Leo Kauffman ‘on a_street corner. she said and the three youths followed them. After they had walked some distance she said, she became tired and wanted to return home, but her step father seized her by the arm and insisted that she continue. She began to crv, she said, and the trio rushed up, Schnéider doffing his coat and expressing his determination to beat Bah- mer. The encounter ended - without blows, however she said, and she and her step- father returned home. Schneider’s story tallies with her’s per- fectly up to this point, except that Schne- ider sald Pearl and Bahmer walked on toward the Philipps’ farm. Kauffman left them then, he said, but he and Haves determined to follow on, Hayes showing him a 32 calibre pistol and assuririg him there ‘was no danger. Euddenly, he said, they saw s couple bereath the crab apple tree and Hayes whipped -out his pistol and began to fire exclaiming, “There they are—T'll fix "em.” . After the struggles of the pair beneath the tree were stilled,. he. said, he stole forward, struck a match and cried to Hayes: +| “My_God, man, you've' made a terri-] -1 ble_mistake. .| TFayes then snatched the minister's Yesterday Vaughan was fined 350 and|watch and they both fled, he declared.. -| Schneider was quoted as teliing the authorities he had taken Pearl to the scene on Saturday—two days after the shooting—gartly out of morbid curiosity and partdy because he wanted to show her how nearly she had come to being slain for her walk with her step-father, ]n was_Schneider and Pearl who first “dizcovered the 'bodies and nétified the police.
