The erowliif? zeal for arbitra

is due to fright over "the BuaiiliiK

BUCHAREST, nunmnin. Oct. 25.
Just as the country wuh settling

functioning smoothly; Kumania to
day was - thrown into turmoil by
announcement of the discovery of
a plot to re-establish the exiled!
Prince Carol upon the throne or
his father and in place of his son,
six year old king Michael. .
To frustrate any further nctlvl-1

seethed with Interest in behalf of

News of the discovery of the
plot came with tlie urrest of M.
Manoilescu, under secretary of fi
nance in the latter Averescii cabi
net on charges of plotting to re
establish Carol upon the throne
which he renounced ulmost two
years ago. '
Manoilescu, In whose possession
the police stated were found many
compromising' letters to and from
Carol, who is now living in a su
burb ot Paris, will be tried by a
military court martial.
Among the letters seized was
one addressed to Curol's mother.
Queen Marie, but this letter is pre

political character.
At a meeting of the national

Gene Tunney Says
Retire From Ring in 5 Years and '
Hold Title of the Champion
(Aw' latil Prctt Ioh1 Wire)
NEW YORK, Oct. 25. The New
York Evening World today Bays
that Gene Tunuey,will retire from
the ring within five years, but still
as the heavyweight champion of
the world. Until that time, the title
holder is quoted as declaring he:
will devote all. his time to the;
"perfection ot physical and fistic
equipment, shunning all Btage or
similar work of a title-commercializing
nature." . ! :
Gene expects to retire to the
work he has planned for the future
a millionaire several times over
from his glove endeavors. The pa
per says he expects to be in even
better trim than for his recent
title defense against Jack Demp
sey in Chicago when next called
upon to defend the heavyweight
crown. i-
Tunney Intimated that pictures
of the Dempsey fight had been "so
arranged and cut as to make the
former champion appear to the
best possible advantuge. The title
holder Baid he could have risen at
the count of four from the knock
down in the much discussed sev
enth round of thut buttle, despite
allegations that a "long count"
saved the title for him.
"I have learned two lessons from
my first yeur us chumplon," Tun
ney Baid. "One if thut stuge work
and that sort of thing Is best left
alone. Another Is thut you must
never go Into tlie ring with your

the Intermingling of residents rrom
tthe various parts of the county, as
there If no Infantile paralysis In
I the county at tho present time and
consequently there Is no reason
why people should stay away from
the' show and club fair.
I In some places, apparently, the
infantile paralysis quarantine has
i resulted In an almost hysterical
.condition among some people and
I this condition may In a measure af

no cases of Infantile paralysis In

jPosure from tho outside occurs.
' It had been planned to hold the

jes of carelessness, I could have

eree had counted so quickly that
nine would only have been the
equivalent of four."
Declaring it "Immaterial ' what
they say or write about my con
tests," Tunney said he bad "work
ed too hard to get where I am to
be wrought up about anything very
much." He suid he "knew perfectly
well that Tex Rickard was partial
to Dempsey" in the uecoud meet
ing. ( i ' - ; f .
' "But then Tex has a mistaken
idea as' to the former champion's
value as a gate- attraction, -He
could not draw ?2CU,000 In New
York against a contender like Bill
Brennau. und how near to a mil
lion did he draw with Miske?
Maybe Tunney had something to
do with the fact that my two
matches villi Dempaey. drew fur
beyond 13.000,000.
"And Btill Rickard has the pic
tures pluy up Dempsey as best he
can. Do the pictures as now ex

Tunney said he expected to de
fend his title within a year against
the best obtainable contender. He
suld there would be "no three
years between matches while I am
champion." i t
"Maybe, after niy ring farewell
In 1932, I will get marriedbut I
don't think it will be even at- soon

the plans followed In this city the

Glenn. V. Wlmberly, O. h. Johnson.

The necessary materials are
now being secured' and will be

Rosehurg people have found the
