FRANCE IS NEAR
LONDON, Nov. 15 (By AsHonlated
ProBs). Prime Mlnintor Btanloy 'Bald
win, In answer to the labor motion of
censure In the hoiiHO of commons to
day, paid with reference to the Ruhr
and reparations situation that ho had
spared no pains to let It be known to
Great Britain's allies that the British
people could not continue indefinitely
to maintain the spirit necessary for
co-operation If the present sltuutton
were allowed to continue.
Mr. Baldwin declared It might be
difficult to maintain Indefinitely
efforts to work together with allies
who made It so difficult.
"I had high hopes," he said, "that
when the communications with
America began they might really be
productive of solid progress, but here
again, as so often before, our efforts
came to naught, not by our own
action, nor by the action of America,
but by the action of two of our
allies."
With rognrd to his tariff protection
program, the premier said he did not
propose under any circumstances to
put a tax on wheat, flour, ehccHO, but
ter, eggs or meat, including mutton.
He reserved a perfectly free hand on
everything else.
Formor Premier TJoyd George said
he was amazed that Mr. Baldwin had
chosen this moment for diverting at
tention from the settlement of Eur
ope. Ono of tho most hopeful events
since the armistice, Mr. IJoyd George
declared, was that tho United Hiatus
had for tho first time declared her
Intention to nsnist In tho Hettlement of
Europo, which would affuct unem
ployment Infinitely more than any
tariff.

quainted with the highways and by

There exists almost every kind of ti

most fledging of princelings. .
Not only do the "mayors" hold title

some of those quasi rulers has been so
strong that tho fame and the glumor
surrounding their names havo been
transmitted to lineal descendants. So,
Tor Instance, did Krwln Stelngut,
"mayor of Hecond avenue" come into
the title which gives him social lead
ership In that section whore he reigns.
Most of tho city's "mayors" and
"nobility," however, are the first pos
sessors of their titles. Among the
best known of those Is "Stitch" Mc-1
Curthy, "mayor of Grand street,"
whoso real name Is Bald to be Rosen

one of the lundmarks of tho East Side

Mr.' James H. Allen suffered for

Ho freely gave hl discovery, which

Sunday "Big Dan" with Chas. Jones.
probably will not be for somo time.
Mrs. Mortimer accompanied her hus
band and Forbes and his orricial party
on tho famous Pacific coast trip In the
summer of 1922 and it was understood
Unit she was questioned concerning
Incidents on that trip.
"Are you a native American or a
naturalized citizen?" Forbes wns ask
ed by General O'liyan at the outset
of today's examination.
"I am a naturalized citizen."
O'ltyan wanted to know If tho
formor bureau director had had an al
tercation with Mortimer on Labor
day, 1922.
"Was It about Mrs. Mortimer?"
"I don't remember. It might have
been partially about her."
Found with Mrs. Mortimer
Forbes conceded that Mortimer had
found the former director and Mrs.
Mortimer In an apartment at the
Wanlinan Park Inn here, but declared
tho door was wide open.
The former director donled that It
was a few days later that he became
Indignant because of Mortimer's con
nection with tho Sutherland Construc
tion company.
Forbes snid ho had givon a position
as mechanical engineer in the bureau
to George 11. Tullido, Jr., a brothor of
Mrs. Mortimer. He was 22 years old
and his salary, Forbes said, was JliOOO
a year.
"Do you swear that that appoint
ment wns not made to please Mrs
Mortimer? naked O'Ryan.
"I swear," said Forbes.
O'ltyan wanted to know if Forbes
knew that IS. Tripp of the supply di
vision of tho bureau bad put the pro
ceeds from tho Perryvlllo, Md., sale of
supplies in tho bunk In Tripp's namo.
I hoard about It when I returned
from Now York," Forbes Bald. "It
was an unusual occurrence, of course."
Committee counsel nalied what snfo
guurds there were to prevont this
practice.
"The matter was In the hands of the
finance division," the ' witness re
plied. General O'Rynn's cross examina
tion was sharp and nt times he declln
od to pormlt Forbos to Biipplemont his
direct answers.
"Can't I answer those questions In
my own way?" asked Forbes.
"You have answered," O'Kynn said,
"and I don't want you taking up tho
committee's tlmo making a stump
speech."
"I think Colonel Forbos should he
allowed to oxplnln his direct anscwrs,"
salil Chairman Hoed. "Hut the expla
nation should not bo an argument."
"No nrgumont, Mr. Chairman." Bald
Forbes.
Ho wns being cross-questioned
about the employment of Matthew
O'llrlen, a San Francisco architect who
prepared the unused plans of the
LIvormoro, Cnl., hospital.
Forbes said he employed O'Drlon;
that President Harding had told him
to get a competent architect suitable
to tho California congressional delega
tion. "And I prosumo that was tho way
government employes hnvo heen se
lected slnco tho days of Andrew Jack
son," observed Senator Heed.
Forbes said there had boon some
roport about alleged Incompetency of
O'Hrlen ns an architect for hospitals,
but added that his plans had been ap
proved by the medical division nnd
others vested with such responsibility.
Tho witness said he never was strong
for tho appointment of an archltoct for
Llvermore.
"Do you now swear that you think
the appointment of an outsldo archi
tect for Llvermore was justified!" ask
ed O'ltynn.
"I cannon answer that quostlon,"
an It! the witness, but O'ltyan pressed
him.
"Docs tho question embarrass you?"
he asked.
"Embarrass me," Forbes exclaimed.
"Certainly not. I think 1 have answer
ed that question. I have stated the ap
pointment was mndo by direction."
"All right, lot It go." said O'Ryan.
HARD TO SECURE
CONSTANTINOPLE Germany Is
making a drive for the Turkish mar
ket with Qormnn thoroughness. With
an all sea route from her ports, and
unhnmptred by the restrictions of the
overland shipping through European
statos, she is getting ready to regain
her prewar prestige here.
German merchants, commercial
travelers, artisans and engineers are
already here in considerable numbers.
-German and Austrian goods are be
ginning to show in the Bhops, and for
the first time since the world war,
German Is heard on the streets.
During the occupation no national
of nn enemy state was permitted in
Turkey without nn Interallied visa,
something almost lrnposslblo to ob
tain. Now Turkey Is encouraging the
Teutons to come, and It is reported
that a great Influx of them is expect
ed this winter. They will largely take
the place of tho exiled Greeks and Ar
menians In retail business. .
The German consul here has said
that Germany considered It "her duty
to aid Turkey .in her new era of devel
opment and reconstruction," and that
he wns in receipt of hundreds of let
ters from his countrymen who were
seeking opportunities here.

A n enterprising proprietor af a
music hall hired a member of tho

brief and witty talks on what went on

He made three appearances, but each
