ices in many churches, special meet
ings of women a organizations and
ceremonies by civic, industrial and
political bodies, generally. Jt is prob

Harding to Speak.
Members of the foreign delega
tions may. be asked to speak briefly
at the Arlington ceremonies, where
the president will make the princi
pal address and oenerai rersning
will lay a wreath on the grave of the
unknown soldier, to be buried there.
By such an observance, officials
are said to believe they can preclude
the possibility that the tribute to the
soldier dead will be overshadowed in
the public mind by the conference
and at tne same time give tne nation
an opportunity to speak its senti
ments for armament reduction. The
plan is said to have been devised by
the president because he felt that
the tributes to those who gave their
f I J ?. . U. ...-H L.
lives in uic wunu war uugni v-u uc
mingled with a prayer for closer in
ternational understanding.
In his Arlington address, Mr. Har
ding is expected to touch on this
question, although any definite dec
laration of the purposes and hopes
of' the armament negotiations will
be reserved for the conferee when
he will welcome the delegates

Impossible to Stop
Brewing, Illinois
"Dry" Agent Says
Chicago, Sept 21. "Ve canuot
stamp out home brewing in Chicago,'
said John Kicllander. prohibition
officer for Illinois, discussing th:
dictum by the Treasury department
that home brew Is illegal
"We would have to station men
on every doorstep in Chicago, night
and day. We cannot enter a house
without a search warrant and. then
we must have reasonable around
for believing home brew I being
sold. XI it is made solely for home
consumption, I believe the brewer is
safe.
"However, the home brewer is tak
ing a big risk in any event More
dangerous than the law is the stuff
he makes. No one can have in his
kitchen or basement, the proper fa
cilities for making beer. Vessels
should be sterilized and the liquor
should be filtered through wood
fiulp, pasteurized and aged in steril
zed air. Home brew, is certain to
be green, unclean and injurious."
Stillman Plans
To Drop Divorce
Fisht in America
j .
New York Banker May Re
new Charges Against Wife
In Paris Expense Es
timated at $1,000 Day.
New York, Sept 21. James A.
Stillman plans to drop his divorce
suit against Mrs. "Fifi" Potter Still
man and the legitimacy attack on
Guy Stillman.
The "scheduled hearincs of wit-
nessca in October may not be held,
the entire proceedings dropped and
he will bo to Paris. Abroad, it is
learned, he plans to file new charges
against his wife and Guy Stillman.
News of Stillman's plans to trans
fer the local fight to Paris came as
a result of inquiries about the rea-
fconi for his recent disposal of vt
Texas properties, the placing of Jay
"Leeds" in an orphan asylum and
other significant developments.
The attempt to divorce Mrs. Still
man has been a mighty expensive
fight It was calculated the former
National City bank president has
spent at least $J0O,000, and the cud
is not yet in siuht. Legal expenses,
temporary alimony for Mrs. Still
man, counsel ices, investigations,
witnesses and the so-called "nusctl
Inneous" total about $1.0UO a day.
J he case has been going nearly a
year.
If Stillman does drop his divorce
action on this side of the Atlantic,
there u Mrs. Stillman's counter
suit for divorce to be considered.
All her witnesses are yet to be
heard and they are expected to prove
her charges that there were many
women in his affairs outside the
Stillman home. There is particular
ly to be related Mrs. Stillman's
charges involving Mrs. "Leeds" and
her son, Jay, who is about the same
ago as Ouy Miiinian.

though she did win a decree of di
vorce, Airs. Miuman woum nave
