LIQUOR SEIZED ELLS STANDS FLAT ON LAW ENFORCING Fullerton Marshal Says He'll Be "Fired" Before Force is Changed. There will be no shakeup in the Fullerton police department unless the marshal is "fired" first because evident this morning when Arthur Eells, Fullerton marshal, announced he had made an investigation of complaints against his men and declared they amounted to nothing. He said he had found his men efficient and not negligent nor discouraged. Lloyd George Warns Against “Next War” (I. N. S. Staff Correspondent) OXFORD, England, June 22—Warning against the next war was sounded by former Premier David Lloyd-George in a speech here today. "The signs are ominous that peace has perished upon the ammunition dump," said the former premier. "The next wah will blot out civilization unless the world is safeguarded against war." WOMEN TEND TO BOILING MASH KANS WEL HA Thousands tuous Ow Executive By GEORGE (I. N. S. Staff Correspondent) KANSAS CITY dent Harding c this morning, stop on his lo thousands Station and a motor parade, executive and M tous ovation. The president There will be no shakeup in the Fullerton police department unless the marshal is "fired" first because evident this morning when Arthur Eells, Fullerton marshal, announced he had made an investigation of complaints against his men and declared they amounted to nothing. He said he had found his men efficient and not negligent nor discouragous. Practically all arrested have pleaded guilty to the charges brot against them. He pointed out that complaints against the department are not to the effect that the officers have not done their duty, but that they have done it. All the clamor for the dismissal of the force, he said, has come from those who had violated the law and failed to get away with it, said Eeils. They "came back" at the department by "howling" to the C. of C. and the board of trustees that the police were so rigid they were driving people from Fullerton. The marshal said he welcomed any candid investigation into the conduct of himself and his men, and that so long as he is city marshal the policy of law enforcement without fear or favor will be carried turn, and if that policy is not agreeable there is only one thing for the trustees to do—"can" the present police force and hire a new squad. "We will continue to arrest those who violate the law regardless who they may be so long as we are here," said the marshal, "and then if we got 'canned' we'll go out and shovel dirt, or dig ditches or something." He said there are two sides to every problem. He affirmed that the newspapers have been representing the Fullerton police force as radical and running things with a high hand, whereas they have simply been doing what they were sworn to do, enforcing the law. "If you saw someone doing a wrong while police looked on and they didn't trouble him, and you did the same thing and they 'pinched' you, you'd feel they were partial, would you not? Well that's just what we don't do. We treat them all alike. And if we don't make an arrest when we see them violating the law, we've failed in our duty. It is wrong to break the law. It would be wrong for us to shield anyone who did so. Go to the law-abiding citizens of this town. They are not kicking. Some of them say we are not stringent enough. The kicks all come from those who broke the law, and got caught." DELAY MOTION FOR NEW FERAUD TRIAL WOMEN TEND TO BOILING MASH Barrels of mash were boiling away nicely, with the women of the house in charge, but no man in sight, when a raid was made about 9 o'clock last night at a house not far from CyPRESS by county officials and others.

By GEORGE R. HOLMES (I. N. S. Staff Correspondent) KANSAS CITY, June 22—President Harding arrived in Kansas City this morning, the second speaking stop on his long western journey. Thousands packed about Union Station and along the route of a motor parade, accorded the chief executive and Mrs. Harding a tumultuous ovation. The president was in good spirits. He feels that in St. Louis last night he spoke the last word on the world court issue, and is content to let the issue go to the people along the lines he laid down in that address. Here, in the gateway to the west, the president tonight will deliver the second of his scheduled speeches, dealing with the railroad problem. He will stress the necessity of consolidating the country's lines into a few great systems, and suggest some legislative remedies which he hopes will be adopted by the next congress. Upon arriving here today the president was taken immediately upon a two-hour motor drive about the city. Due to the intense heat, the president cancelled his arrangements to play golf this afternoon, deciding to remain at the hotel and keep cool. Later in the afternoon, when the heat lessened, he and Mrs. Harding plan to visit a veteran's hospital. EN ROUTE WITH PRESIDENT HARING, June 22—President Harding sped on his way westward today convinced that he has immeasurably strengthened the case of the new international court before the people. He has said he is "not wedded irrevocably to any particular method" of showing America's willingness to embrace the principles of international arbitration; he has indicated clearly that he is willing to accept any "reasonable reservations" which the Republican irreconcilables may decide are necessary, but further than this, his friends say today, Mr. Harding will not go. The president considers that in his speech at St. Louis last night he made every concession to the opposition that consistently can be asked of him—even by the irreconcilables. He takes the position that Republican platform for 20 years have pledged the party to the world court idea and he considers that he has now offered the party an opportunity to "make good" on the pledge and with its own terms in doing it. "I am so eager for the ultimate accomplishment," he said, "that I am interested in harmonizing opposing elements, more anxious to effect our helpful commitment to the court, than I am to score a victory for executive insistence." With this disavowal of White House dictation which was loudly cheered by his St. Louis audience and with the reiterated pledge that ORANGE-CO HOME BUILDERS FORMED The Orange-co Home Builders Finance Corp., which filed articles today, includes Peter Palm., Jr., and H.

ATTEMPT TO LEARN SLAYER OF BANDIT (By Interational News Service) LOS ANGELES, June 22—Police today grilled Cruz Jarmillo, asserting leader of the "handlers" who disposed of $450,000 worth of bonds recured in the First National Bank holdup, in an effort to learn who killed Sam McGee, bank chauffer, Feb. 21, last when the bonds were stolen in a daring holdup. A chance remark reaffirmde officers suspicions that Jarmillo knows McGee's slayer. Reports that an underworld gang might try to rescue from jail the persons already under arrest in connection with handling the stolen bonds was belittled by the officers. Two of those arrested are women. It was asserted that some of the men arrested were dealers in narcotics.

"I am so eager for the ultimate accomplishment," he said, "that I am interested in harmonizing opposing elements, more anxious to effect our helpful commitment to the court, than I am to score a victory for executive insistence." With this disavowal of White House dictation which was loudly cheered by his St. Louis audience and with the reiterated pledge that joining the court does not mean joining the League of Nations, Mr. Harding is content to rest his case. He will refer to the court only incidentally during the many other speeches he will make between St. Louis and San Diego. From now on his major speeches will be devoted to questions concerning domestic issues—transportation, taxation, law enforcement, social justice, etc. The president left St. Louis early this morning on the second leg of his western trip. The presidential special is due to arrive in Kansas City shortly before noon and there night Mr. Harding will deliver his expected address on the railroad situation. It is expected that he will endorse the plan of consolidating the railroads of the country into a few great systems as the only method of obtaining that orderly and adequate service which the public demands.

ALLEGES HUSBAND CRUEL TO DAUGHTER Many cruelties including improper behavior toward her 17-year-old daughter are alleged by Bertha E. Nichols of Howard N.

On one occasion the plaintiff avered she found the names, addresses and telephone numbers of several Los Angeles women in the auto, and garments of one of them. On or about June 8 the defendant drew a check on her account for $400, which was approximately $125 overdraft, but later returned $135. LESS ACTIVITY IN MT. ETNA VOLCANO ROME, June 22.—Mount Etna's eruption waned in fury today and there was only a small trickle of lava advancing at the rate of six yards an hour.

Army aviators who flew over the crater, thru clouds of black smoke and sickening fumes, reported that lava was flowing from only some of the half dozen fissures that had opened since the eruption began last Sunday. Altho the agricultural loss is put at $10,000,000, King Victor Emmanuel, who investigated on the scene, informed the authorities the catastrophe was also appalling than at first believed.

LIFT MARTIAL LAW (By International News Service) SAVANNAH, Ga., June 22—Marals by the White Star Liner Baltic and the Cunarder Berengaria will be seized and taken from the ships early tomorrow by U.S. customs officials, it was learned late today from a high official of the customs service. NEW YORK, June 22—Following eleventh hour instructions from the treasury department, the U.S. customs authorities this afternoon boarded the Cunard liner Berengaria, broke the British customs seal on a supply of liquor in the ship's store room and officially seized it. The arrival of the White Star liner Baltic a few hours earlier, also with liquor aboard for beverages purposes on the return voyage, was not expected, as in the case of the Berengaria, and the Baltic's liquor was merely placed under guard. It will, however, be dealt with later in the same fashion as that of the Berengaria. It was the first test of the treasury department ruling following the U.S. supreme court decision concerning the bringing of liquor within the three-mile sea limit. In both cases liquor was acknowledged in the ship manifest and was evidently intended to create a situation requiring further decision by U.S. courts. The recent liquor ruling of the U.S. supreme court prohibited "import and export" within the three-mile limit, and it is evident the purpose of the British to have it settled, whether liquor under sea lis for export or import. The Berengaria, according to her customs manifest, brought in sealed in her medical storeroom 46 1-6 gallons of wine, 20 5-8 gallons of spirits (whiskey and brandy) and 150 battles of beer, ale and stout. But in the ship's store room, and frankly for beverage purposes on the return voyage, the Berengaria had under British customs seal 108 5-6 gallons of wine, 110 2-6 gallons of spirits, and 3,887 bottles of beer, ale and stout. The U.S. officials, in a wholly formal procedure, broke the British seals on both store rooms, subbattituting American customs seals and put a guard before the doors. On the Baltic they did not immediately go as far as on the Berengia. The customs officers merely put a guard outside her store rooms. After boarding Baltic and establishing guards on liquor supply, New York Washington for instruct. These instructions flatly liquor must be seized in violate the American dry law and the but turned over to prohibition office. Prohibition authorities were told give the captain of the Baltic a ceilpt for the wet supply, and to hold all of the liquor pending further word from the treasury about disposition. The entire liquor supply on the Baltic. BY HOMES BETTY STRICKEN June 22—Few homes more than $100 worth of cost of the automobilesunky old things, worth Local women wear little of which is of paste.
