CHILDRESS, Nov. 13.—
(P)—Fear of possible mob
violence as result of bring-
ing Frank Morelos, a Mex-
ican, charged with the kill-
ing of J. L. Newberry, was allayed
here tonight by the arrival of five
truck loads of soldiers from ort
Bliss. El Paso. Morelos was rushed
to jail here for safekeeping after
his arrest at Claude.
The soldiers, a part of an engi-
neering unit, arrived shortly after
Morelos was brought in and camped
on lots opposite the jail. The troops
have full complement of rifles and
side arms and can be used to pro-
tect the prisoner. More soldiers of
the same organization were expected
tonight from Fort Bliss.
Morelos, arrested in Claude today,
after the killing of Newberry, a
section foreman at Goodnight, Tex-
as, was said by officers to have
confessed to not only killing New-
berry, but also a Mexican.

can. Sheriff John Compton is ab-

NEW YORK, Nov. 13.—
Summing up for myself in
the leisure of the return
voyage the impressions of
the last eight weeks spent
in four European countries and, in
reality, ths impressions of 22 weeks
in Europe during the current year,
one fact stands out with almost
startling clarity. That is the ex-
tent to which there is becoming
manifest something which one
might perhaps decribe vaguely as
an European sentiment.
The -war and post-war periods
have been times of intense divi-
sion between nations and races, be-
tween the nations and races which
have in the main dominated Eu-
rope and, indeed, the world, aside
from the Americas, for long cen-
turies. We have become accus-
AX tomed to thinking of Europe as di-
‘4 vided by frontiers almost as for-
midable as the oceans themselves.
We have become accustomed to
think of secular hatreds and pres-
ent as well as past grievances as
constituting a permanent barrier to
anything even remotely suggesting
any form of real European combi-
nation or even co-operation.
New Coalitien Forming
And yet nothing is more impres-
sive than the extent to which in
western and central Europe, in
France, Germany, Belgium, Hol»
land, Austria and all three of the
Scandinavian countries, as well as
in Switzerland, ideas which must
be described as European are being
voiced and are obtaining a wider
and wider hearing. And if the
British situation is somewhat dif-
ferent, as a consequence of the in-
sular fact and tradition, Britain
herself is being driven more and
more to recognize the fact that
she is in Europe and is condemned
to participate in continental af-
fairs.
At the bottom of this European
sentiment is the clear perception
A by every belligerent in the war
( that it was a common diseastere
which, if repeated, would mean a
common ruin. Indeed one may go
further and say quite accurately
that there is a very considerable
body of opinion in all countries
which holds that the war was so
much a complete disaster that Eu-
rope collectively will never recover
what it had in 1914 and lost in
the next years.
Mistaken Ideas of Victory
In 1913, when peace was made, it

sults of the war and the word and
the Idea of victory wore still very

GEORGE WEST, Nov. 13.—(—
One juror mutually acceptable to
the state and defense was found1
late today' after attorneys in the
trial of Harry J. Lehay for the
murder of Dr. J. A. Ramsey last
May, had examined 41 venirement
and had spent a week in wrangling
over motions.
W. W. Curry, a farmer of White -
sett, was accepted by both sides
just before court closed ' aturday
afternoon. With his selection, the
available Jury material was reduced
to 282 men, the state having used
eight of its 16 peremptory challenges
and the defense two. Sheriff Key
estimates that shoulud the venire
be exhausted, only 200 more men
would be available for an extra
venire. If the selection and rejec-
vtion of jurors continues in the
present ratio, there is a chance that
it will be impossible to obtain ft

Defense attorneys questioned each
venireman at length while the state
seemed eager to qualify anyone that
had no scruples against capital
punishment.

OOMERVILLE, N. J., Nov. 13.—
W—Mre. Frances Stevens Hall cat
in a little court house here today
and hoard letters, telling of the
professed love of her dead husband
for another woman, also dead, read
to a jury, which seemed less inter-
ested than the curious throng in
the courtroom.
The widow of the slain rector sat
between her brothers and co-de-
fendants. Willie and Henry Stevens,
as extravagant phrases, represent-
ed as those of her husband, ad-
dressed to Mrs. Eleanor R. Mills,
singer in his church choir, were
read into the record by the state,
which charges the trio with the
murder of Mrs. Mills.
The letters dwarfed all else of
significance of the trial day. Sub-
mitted as evidence in the morning
after they previously had been
identified, they were admitted but
not until the defense had vainly
urged their exclusion, the after-
noon brought the reading.
Most of the letters were written
from Maine where the Rev. Ed-
ward W. Hall was on vacation in

read as bearing the name of the
minister. The use of the initials
was not explained.
“Queen" was often used, "Gypsy
Queen" being a favorite expreselon,
and once "Royal Queen." "Dear,"
“Dear Angel Sweetheart" was a
salutation as were "My Own Dear
Wonder Heart" and “Dear Heart of
Mine.”
The impatience of the lover was
reflected in an expression "Darling
only seven more days,” referring to
a separation and a suggestion for
a meeting was alluded to as "seeing
you on our road."
One letter spoke of "burning
kisses,” and another of "holding you
for the peace that nothing else
brings." “I am not wild nor fierce,"
said the writer in another letter
"but peaceful and exalted." “I want
to feel the wonder of the universe
with you, hold you close with my
left hand and stroke your dear face
with my right,” was one sentence
read to the jury.
"I am storing health and strength
to be your Gypsy king," was a dec-
laration and later "Oh. how I did
want to get away with you to

TURKS FEAR ATTACK
Congress should create a board,
bacted by United States treasury
certifiates, to mak possible the
orderly marketing of surplus cot-
ton, Congressman J. P. Buchanan
of Brenham - Saturday wired from
Washington to Judge A. 8. Walker
of Austin.
Judge Walker asked Congress-
man Buchanan his views on tho
cotton situation.
“In order to procure the passage
of this legislation through congress,
one would have to concede the
same character of legislation for
the wheat farmers ana the corn and
Nivestock producers,” Buchanan
wired.
I “In this legislation, the govern-
ment would only be loaning its
credit in an organized capacity to
aid 'the farmers of the nation in
procuring a reasonable price for
the products of the farms. It is
and has been for years doing mors
than this for the organised manu-
facturers through tariff legislation
and for the railroads.
Thinks It Only Effective Way
“I have studied this agricultural
problem for years ad ths remedy
herein outlined is the only effective
one I have been able to work out.
“It should remain in force until
the tariff and freight rates are ma-
terially reduced and national trade
restri< tions and barriers removed
and a free, unhampered exchange
of products between nations estab-
lished. When this is dons thers
will be no necessity for class legis-
lation of any character.”
Buchanan described as "excellent
for temporary relief" the plan now
being worked out by the bankers,
b siness men and farmes, and de-
cl red. "thia plan should be sup-
plemented by an act of congress
authorizing the issuing of treasury
certificiates bearing such rate of
interest as will command an imme-
diate market for the amount of
$500,000,000."

BERLIN, Nov. 13.—The
creation of a “United States
of Asia" as "a rival league
to the league of nations,
with Germany as a neutral
bulwark between the two—that is
the real object of a conference be-
tween Foreign Minister Tchitcherin
of Russia and Tewfik Rushdi Bey,
the Turkish foreign minister at
Odessa, according to reports from
Moscow and Constantinople.
The two foreign ministers, it is
asserted, will sign a treaty of al-
liance between Russia and Turkey,
The plan is to enlarge this alliance
by taking in Persia, Afghanistan
and China. The conference is said
to be a direct answer to the recent
meeting at Livorno between Sir
Austin Chamberlain and Premier
Mussolini.
The alliance is said to have the
double purpose of balking the sup-
posed anti-Russian policy of Eng-
land and forestalling a possible
joint offensive against Anatolia,
which the Turks fear is being
planned by Mussolini in combina-
tion with Greece and Bulgaria.
When it was first disclosed this
spring that a rival league was be-
ing planned the disclosure aroused
a furore in the German press be-
cause at that time Germany was
negotiating for entry into the
league of nations. Now it is open-
ly discussed in the German papers.
The German consul at Odessa is a
member of the reception committee
to welcome Tewfig Rushdi Bey.

Two things set Banta Claus' party
at Scarbrough’s apart from other
parties. The first was the fact that
Mrs Banta Claus came along from
the polar regions for the first time
in history, and made a speech to
the big crowds of youngsters at
both the morning and the afternoon
party in Scarbrough’s Saturday.
The second was the dignity and
naturalness with which Santa Claus
upheld Ills side of tha party.
Santa Claus, and Mrs. Santa
Claus, heralded by a bugler,

mient, amid acres and acres of toys
