“Makes it harder with the weeds

“No, it’s easier,” retorted the enthu

In a western city, just before an

from bis ward, made a house-to-house
canvass, soliciting votes.
At one place his knock brought

leaped through the open door whan it
was opened by tlie lady of the house
and ran the candidate off the porch
and down tire front walk toward the
gate.
Tlie woman at the door, knowing
the dog to be harmless, called to tire
fleeing candidate, “What are you run

And Mr. Grow, with the office in

WARREN MAY
WED UNWED
WAR MOTHER
Kansas City Attorney Insists
Interest of Self and Divorced
Wife in English Girl and
Baby Altruistic.
By Jack Carbarry, Universal Servic*
Correspondent.
Kansas City, Mo., Nov. 27.—Life—
the unseen stagehand who set the
scenes In the post war tragedy of
Nancy Jordan, English gentlewoman,
for her story of ennobling altruism as
enacted by herself, Frank G. Warren,
Kansas City attorney, and his di
vorced wife—arranged a new set for
the dramatic third act of the story
tonight—the probable wedding of
“the man" in the piece, and “the
girl."
For Warren tonight expressed the
belief that "events may so shape
themselves that he and Miss Jordan
may marry." giving a name to the
cultured English girl’s three-year-old
war child, Francis Warren, Jr.
Warren, in a statement to P. E.
Reynolds, immigration inspector here,
expressed this belief as the probable
outcome of the "sorry plight In whlcji
ono of the finest women. In whose
veins runs the noblest strain of
England,” now finds herself.
Notified by Mrs. Warren.
Warren refused to make public a
telegram he received from New York
from Mrs. Warren, in which she told
him of Miss Jordan's release from
the Immigrant station, and of her
plans to bring the girl and her buby
to Kansas City.
"My former wife will post the fe
quired bond to assure Miss Jordan’s
entry into the United Stales," War
ren said, alter reading the message.
Mrs. Warren, daughter of R. W.
Van Trump, late Kansas City capital
ist, is wealthy. Warren’s finances
are those of the struggling young at
torney.
He was married to his former wife
in 191!. They divorced in 1920 aft^r
Warren had told his wife of Miss
Jordan and her child.
Met Her in London.
At the beginning of the world war
Warren enlisted. He was sent over
seas as a first lieutenant. In London
he met Miss Jordan.
Miss Jordan’s story is without
precedent In the "hundreds of cases
of this nature which come to the at
tention of the immigration depart
ment,” James .T. Davis, secretary of
labor, visiting hero said tonight.
The secretary had just heard Miss
Jordan’s story as revealed in her tes
timony before the Immigration of
ficials at^Ellls Island.
“Mr. Warren is not the father of
my child” Miss Jordan said, "lie is a
noble gentl^nan who has taken pity
on me.
“I was employed during the war.
In my work I met a British officer—•
a John Smith.
“We loved. Loving 1 listened to his
promise of marriage. I will pay for
that mistake all my life. There came
a day when ‘John Smith’ was called
to France. When he returned we were
to wed.
“When 1 learned a. little soul was
to be horn to us I sought my lover at
the addresses lie had given me. He
was unknown. 1 have never seen him
since.
“Then Mr. Warren came into my
life. He learned my story and pitied
me. Upon his return to America, Mr.
Warren told his wife of my sor-y
plight She wrote me. H°r sympathy
grew until she uent me passage to
come to America, offering to take mo
to her own hearthstone and to adopt
my child.”
Immigration officials here tonight
revealed that since Warren’s return
from overseas he has sent almost
monthly sums of money to Miss Jor
dan. Mrs. Warren has also contri
buted to the girl’s support.
“Marriage between myself and Miss
Jordan has not been discussed,” War
ren told Inspector Reynolds In reveal
ing his story/today. “However events
may so sh.ijpe themselves that Miss
Jordan and I may marry.”
“At all events Miss Jordan will find
a welcome home with my former
wife here,’’ Warren stated. “All that
can be done for a girl who has made
one mistake will be done by Mrs. War
ren.”
New York. Nov. 27.—Miss Nancy
Jordan won her fight today against
the Immigration laws which automat
ically bar unmarried mothers from
this country. She will soon enter the
United States with iier three-year
old son to work for his future away
from tile shadow of tier folly.
Assistant Secretary of Labur White
in Washington signed an order per
mitting her to enter under bond. The
bond will be signed by Frank (1. War
ren, attorney of Kansas,City, and his
wife, who recently divorced him.
The English girl s victory over de
portation will take to Kansas City
one of the strangest triangles grow
ing out of the world war. She will
live with Mrs. Warren, who wants
to adopt the baity, in spite of the ru
mors whicli connect Miss Jordan with
Warren, whom she met in England
during the war.

MIXUPIn BALKANS
FURTHER TANGLED
European Diplomats Introduce
New Complications Into
Perplexing Frontier
Question.
BY ISAAC DON LEVINE
Universal Service Correspondent.
Special Cable Dispatch.
laiusanne, Switzerland, Nov. 27.—A
new ftalkun conundrum, which only
the best minds of old European di
plomacy could Invent after a whole
week of secret deliberations, Is the
achievement of the l^tusanne con
ference to date.
Gathered here to create problems,
not to offer solutions, the,. European
diplomats have produced a situation
on the Greco-Turkiah frontier In com
parison with which the old Balkan
affairs are simplicity itself.
The rlRlit half of the de-mllttarized
zone east of the Maritza river belongs
to Turkey but Is controlled by an in
ternational commission. The left half
of the same zone lying west of the
Maritza, Is a Greek possession under
international control.
The latter half includes the railroad
from Adrlanople to the Aegean sea,
which was given to Bulgaria, and
which Is thus put under the triple
control of Greece, Bulgnriu and the
International commission.
The same is true of the port of
Dedeagach, which remains a terri
torial possession of Greece, but In the
Immediate control of Bulgaria under
the supervision of the International
commission.
Even more involved Is the Adrlan
ople solution, providing that Adrlan
ople Is Turkish, while Karagach,
across the river where the Adrlanople
railway station Is situated, is Greek.
The station itself is Turkish.
Should Turkey, Greece and Bulgaria
begin fighting over their Interest In
this frontier, which is almost cer
tain to happen sooner or later, the
European powers, thanks to the con
trol they assume at this congress,
would become involved in a new Bal
kan war.

BRITAIN BACKS AMERICA.
By Henry Weed, United Press Staff
Correspondent.
Lausanne, Nov. 27.—America won
her fight on the open door In the Near
East today when the British delega
tion announced that Britain had
abandoned the San Itemu oil agree
ment.
The British, they said, considered
this agreement nullified und stated
that It would not be applied.
This announcement followed For
eign Secretary Curzon’g declaration
that no divergence of views existed
between England and America on the
open door auestton.
Marquis Curzon, foreign secretary
announced officially tockiy that Eng
land and America were completely
agreed on the open door policy In the
Near East.
Mandate Battle On.
The Turkish fight for the Mosul oil
legion today threatened the structure
of the League of Nations and the
whole system of Near Eastern man
dates, *
The British claim they cannot sur
render mandatory rights entrusted to
them by the League of Nations with
out the latter’s consent, while the
Turks claim that all the Near East
mandates are invalid.
The Turks see the mandates as pr</.
elded for them under the Sevres
treaty which was never ratified even
by the mandatory powers, lienee the
league's action In approving and is
suing the mandates was premature
and Illegal.
The British say the fundamental
object of the ' league’s control over
mandates was to protect the interests
of the native population and there
fore they cannot admit a change In
the Mosul district without consent of
both the population and the league.
Although the Turks maintain that
the Kurdish population Is all pro
T'irk, England claims the contrary.
Turkish delegates prepared the way
'.’or Turkey’s fight for abandment of
the special extra-territorial privileges
to foreigners, by distributing copies
of the famous "national pact.’’ This
convention, adopted by the Turkish
national assembly, embodies their
demands at Lausanne.
Article VI Insists that Tprkey’s
complete independence Is necessary
for the country's national develop
ment and that every juridical and
final restriction imposed from without
will be opposed.
The Lausanne conference is prov
ing a good second to Versailles in
the large number of petitions received
from peoples and races demanditif
recognition and independence.

slclan. Her condition was described
as “it complete nervous breakdown.”
The Issue of their domestic wel
fare was left In us helplessly huphaz'
ard state as when Mrs. Tlernan Ini
tiated her action against Harry Pou
lin, t he haberdasher, three months
ago. charging him with the paternity
of her third child, "Baby Billy."
Tuesday Billy’s Birthday.
Tomorrow, as though by weird co
incidence hi tho tragic cycle of
"Billy’s” life the famous “state’s ex
hibit A” will celebrate the first anni
versary of his birth. Tho outlook is
not propitious for u birthday party.
The latest abrupt change In the re
lationship of the former Notre Dame
university professor and his wife,
which vacilllates between passionate
ardor and most violent animosity
within the space of a few moments,
was first disclosed when Tlernan
failed to make his announced ap
pearenee before Judge Chester Mont
gomery and move to dismiss his cross
complaint against his wife.
This was the action that he had
planned yesterday In the roseate op
timism of his new resolution to “re
main true to his first love through
thick and thin.” This would have
cleared the docket or all legal obsta
cles to permanent peace In the Tier
nan household.
Now Ho Defends “Blanche.”
When the professor awoke this
morning the firmness of his resolu
tion was somewhat shaken. A few
Invidious remarks about “that
Blanche woman” from Mrs. Tlernan,
and the professor could not summon
the necessary courage to withdraw
his action for divorce.
He entertained thoughts of aban
doning all hope of reconciliation,
prosecuting a new divorce action and
fleeing to his second bride.
T’nder the Indiana law his cross
hill for divorce Is practically void
now without being formally dismissed
because he tactily condoned the
grievances against his wife which he
enumerates in that action, when he
returned to live with her yesterday,
even though the reconciliation was
only for one night.
New Marriage in Tangle.
Adding to the complications of
his hectic romance with MA. Brim
mer, Prof Tlernan said that she had
expressed a doubt as to whether she
was really divorced when she married
him.
Prof Ticrnan pondered the state
ment. Relaxing Into tolerance, ho
embraced his “new wife” and fondly
kissed her farewell, returning Immed
iately to South Bend.
"(io and redeem yourself In my
eyes,” was Tiernan’s injunction.
Tearfully the bride replied, ”Oh, I
will, dear John.”
Just how much beclouded Mrs.
Brimmer’s previous marital status is
remains somewhat a matter of con
jecture. According to her own state
ments, before she left Chicago to re
turn to Marshalltown, la., she could
at least match her spouee of a few
hours us to variety In her matrimon
ial career.
At the age of 18 years, eight years
ago, she eloped with Floyd L. Rash,
Marshalltown baker. Four days af
ter receiving a notice that Rash had
sued for divorce, she said she mar
ried Arthur H. Brimmer at Oska
loosa, la., only to learn later that
Bash had not obtained a final decree
when she married Brimmer.
Nothing was done about the mat
ter, she says, and she and Brlmier
came to Chicago, where she ootanie
a check girl In a Chinese cafe. Soon
after this she learned that BHn mer
had been sued for a divorce by an
earlier wife, so she left him, but later
rejoined him at Kansas City. He then
deserted her, she says, and his broth
er informed her that Brimmer was
dead.

DEATH BLOW
GIVEN LOAN
FOR LIBERIA
Senate Kills $5,000,000 Bill
by Sending It Back to Com
mittee — Strongly Opposed
as “Graft Measure.”
Universal Service.
Washington, Nov. 27.—The proposed
loan of $5,000,000 by the United
Htates to the republic of Liberia was
killed In the Senate this afternoon. A
vote of 42 to 33 sent the resolution
back to the finance committee where
it is certain to remain until the end
of the session. The complexion of the
next congress will make It impossible
for the measure ever to be revived.
Opposition centered on two things,
first the charge that a large share of
the money was to go to International
bankers who bought up Liberian
bonds, which are now held far be
low par; second the additional charge
that an organized lobby was to "split"
the sum of $550,000 for getting the
loan measure through. A further
charge made by democratic senators
was that the republicans who favored
the measure were seeking the negro
vote.
Senator Heed, of Missouri, who was
^present In tile Senate today for the
first time since his re-election, de
clared the measure would never have
been heard of "If It were not for tho
graft that there is In it." He added
that the loan was proposed "merely
because certain speculative gentle
men bought up the bonds of Liberia
and wanted to get their money back.”
