i LONDON. Aug. 13. "Stow me!"
That will be the attitude of all the
European statesmen vhen they meet
in Washington for President Hard
ing's conference on disarmament and
Pacific bcean questions.
The powers illustrate the old Bay
ing, "Once bit twice shy." ' They feel
they were bit once. At. Versailles they
saw President Wilson and his secre
tary of state put their signatures to
a League of Nations agreement." And
then they saw the Senate turn down
the whole business.
This time, before they do any sign
ing, they Will want to see Harding and
Hughes sign and the O. K. of the Sen
ate, too. Not till then will they be
ready to append their own signatures.
But they do expect agreement will
be easier than 1n the Wilson case be
cause Harding has the Senate with
him.
Favor Ntw League
If President Harding, after getting
agreements on disarmament and Pa
cific problems, wants to go a step
tnrther and broach his Association of
Nations in place of Wilson's League
of Nations, preserving mainly the
Permanent Court of International Jus
tice, he will meet with far less oppo
sition than is generally supposed.
The 40 nations in the league don'f
care about the name of the organiza
tion, its form or its constitution, so-J
long as the United States comes in.
And there are indications that they
are ready to agree to America makipg
all the reservations it wants.
The main thing Is the tax-ridden
lowers of the world, together with
nil the little countries, want protec
tion against further wars.
That will mean partial disarmament
lower taxes, "more money for peaceful
pursuits.

Leading to Killing in

ORLANDO. Fla.; Aug. 13.-A state--wide
search is being made here for ,
"a second man" on Whom police base
their hopes of beln able to clear un
the tangle of amazing exploits that'
surround Miss Lnt Clarke, West!
Palm Beach nostrii.-Arpss. 1
Miss Clarke is (under arrest here,
charged with the piirder of Fred Mil
timore; restaurant owner, and., with
the theft of $32,0001 from theAVest
Palm Beach postofi ite.
. Officials who hlaie questioned her,
and who have oil Several occasions
listened to "conffcsliojis" that she
made, only to rep)iiate them a short
time later, believe she may be trying
to piece together i story that will
hold. water, in orrley to. shield a sec
ond man in te casq. '
Many angles of the evidence, they
say, points to the existence of this
second man. 'If 4
Developments Fast .
This s the history of the case In a
nutshell: '
On July 26 it was learned that $32.
000 had been taken from- a registered
mail sack at the' West Palm Beach
postoffice.
On Aug. 1, Miss. Clarke appeared at
the Orlando police station, asking of
ficials to go to a room in the San
Juan hotel where she said she had
drugged a man implicated in the rob
bery, and locked - him up until she
could get police help. 1
Police found Miltimore lying dead'
on the floor of the room, killed" by a
revolver bullet. A gun was on the
floor nearby, together with two mdn
c.v bags, slaslied and empty. ; Tags
on the bags showed they were sent
by the First National Bank of West
Pal mBeach to the Federal Reserve
Bank it Atlanta, and "that one had
contained $32,000 and the other $"000.
Chief Confronts Her ,
When this news was phoned to
Chief Vestal, he confronted Miss
Clarke.
"Didn't you kill Miltimore, Miss
Clarke?" - .
"No, I didn't," she replied.
Again he put the question, and MJss
Clarke, hesitated. , ,
res, I killed him," the chief saws
she then replied.
Later the chief, in a pub!i state
ment, gave' this version of the affair,
as be said -Miss Clarke had told it to
him:
"In 1918, while she was assistant
postmaster at West Palm Beach there
was a $38,000 shortage discovered, in
the office. Miss Clarke said that al
though she never was ableo get any
proof, she suspected Miltimore. Both
she and Miltimore a short time later
were candidates for postmaster, and

Miltimore was responsible for, seek

"The $32,000 theft, she explained,
was for the purpose of covering "up
the earlier shortages. She told me
she brought the money sacks and
$725 over to the hotel room and sent
for Miltimore to prove to him that in
her desperation she had taken the
mney involved to straighten up the
old accounts. She said she tried to
get him to sign a statement regard
ing the earlier shortage and that he
refused."
Her Memory Fails
Although sne once had told police
that she shot" Miltimore, Miss Clarke
told Chief Vestal on this second oc
casion that if she shot him, she didn't

LONDON. Aug. 13. The British .
government is trying to placate and
retain India, as well as Ireland.
The principal obstacle in the path of
Lord Reading, the new viceroy of
India. Is Mohandas Kara men and
Gandhi, most famous of all Hindu
leaders.
Gandhi is head of the 'cult that bea-a
his name, and is leading the fight to
gain home rule in India by. boycotting
the' British and their goods.

as a great diplomat thai led to th

And what of Gandhi, the "holy
man" who exerts such influence over
India's 313,000.000 people? What
manner of man is he?
Gandhi was born 51 years ago. his
father being chief minister of the
state of Porbender for 25 years. He
belongs to a Bania. or trading caste,
lives at Ahmadabad. the great mill
center .is married and has four ons.
He has founded a settlement near .
his home for the culture of truth In
poverty, and for hand-weaving and
primitive agriculture, believing that
modern machinery is a work of evil.
Gandhi was educated in England,
where he studied law. He went to
South Africa, where ,he later gave up
his practice to aid Hindus who were
