Dominions Asked to Aid
St. Johns, N. F., Sept. 19, In
response to Great Britain's requctt
as to the Dominion's readiness to
furnish troops for operations in
the near east. I'remier Sir Kich
ard Squires, of New Foundland,
who is m London, has replied:
"New Foundland does not want
the Ilrilish empire to grt into an
other row, but if there has to be a
row we want to be in it."
Paiia, Sept. I9By A. P.)-Tbe
French cabinet today unanimously
approved what is characterised as the
Pacific policy of Premier Poincare
in the near east and the withdrawal
of all French troops from Asia Minor
to the French side of the straits of
the Dardanelles. The cabinet went
firmly on record a being opposed to
any form of military action as a
means of settlement in the Turko
Greco situation. It emphasised the
necessity of reaching an agreement
through diplomatic channels and
eventually by a peace conference.
The order for the withdrawal of
the rrenclt forces troin Lhanak in
the Dardanelles area was sent late
last night by I'remier Foincare and
will be carried out tonight or tomor
row. The F'reneh high commission
er, General Fclle, bas been sent to
Smyrna to confer with Mustapha
Keinal Pasha and inform him that
France does not approve the bel
ligerent attitude of the British gov
ernment and that it intends to con
line its efforts to the diplomatic field,
it is stated.'
It is believed the arrival of Lord
Curzon, the British foreign secretary,
who is expected tonight will prob
ably result in a Franco-British ac
cord. British Cabinet Firm.
London, Sept. 19: The British
cabinet takes the attitude that Great
Britain will undertake military ac
tion alone if necessary, independent
of France and Italy, to protect the
freedom of Dardanelles, it was au
thoritatively stated after this fore
noon's protracted cabinet meeting.
An official communique issued from
Downing street this afternoon de
clares in substance that the govern
ment stands by its pronouncement
of policy issuerj to the press Satur
day, notwithstanding newspaper re
ports to the contrary.
An official statement issued by the
cabinet declared:
"As repeated iu the telegram sent
by the cabinet to the prime ministers
of Australia and New Zealand, yes
terday, the empire will not consent
to sacrifice the result of, the gallant
struggle and decisive victories of its
sons in the western theater."

Belfast, Sept. 19. The Royal Fu
sileer regiment will leave Belfast to
night for England, it was announced
this .afternoon. It is believed the
regiment is destined for the near
east.
Italy's View.
Rome, Sept. 19. Foreign Minis
ter Schanzer'g attitude regarding
the near eastern problem is ap
proved by the cabinet, it is an
nounced. Italy, it is stated, is in agreement
with her allies in insisting upon the
freedom of the straits of Dardanel
les and hopes that the questions out
side the Greco-Turkish conflict and
having a larger scope will be solved
at a conference.
Chance for Coupe Gone.
Constantinople, Sept. 19. (by A.

Samson's Subjects
View Coronado's
Entry to Quivera
Serond Part of Pageant as
Brilliant as Monday Night's
Sperlacle Children
Win Applause.
All roads led to Ak-Sar-Ben field
last night and the spectacle
was just as brilliant as Mon
day night, when Francisco Vas
ques de Coronado and his fol
lowers started on their long journey
to the land of Quivera in quest of
gold at the end of the first part of
what was beyond doubt the most
brilliant dramatic representation with
music ever presented in the middle
west.
Coronado and his glittering caval
cade entered Quivera, only to be
disillusioned; to find the land of
King Tartarrax is not one of gold,
but rather a land of rolling, fertile
prairies and broad, kindly streams.
Climax of Ak Activities.
And with this unhappy climax of
Coronado' expedition comes also a
glorious climax in the activities of
Ak-Sar-Ben in Omaha. For 28 years
King Ak has ruled his kingdom of
Quivera. It has grown and flourish
ed beyond all expectation. But until
Monday night and last night the
mighty Samson has never essayed to
give his thousands of loyal subjects
a picture of the early incidents from
which the idea of Ak-Sar-Ben grew.
New voices were introduced in
the second part of the pageant last
night. Likewise new dances and
dancers, new scenes and new char
acters. The pageant staff is as follows:

Keenly as the big audience followed
the historical thread of the story, if
was the spectacle of more than 1,000
little folk, rainbow-attired, and mov
ing over the vast stage in sprightly
dance, which drew thunderous ap
plause. Beset with numerous hardships,
particularly the cold, for the little
tots were clad in sheerest gauze, each
did her part cheerfully.
"It was an assemblage of the most
perfect youngsters I ever saw," is
the tribute of Miss Belle Ryan, as
sistant superintendent.

The fact that the party was late
on its schedule Monday and did not
arrive at O'Neill until midnight, ne
cessitating an extra hour there this
morning, made it compulsory to cut
Ewing froitu the schedule. Similar
tactics were planned at Neligh, but
when Mr. Howell learned that a num
ber of farmers had driven into town
from miles distant to hear him. and
had been waiting several hours, be
refused to disappoint them. He be

House May Override Acl

hi veto power in emphatic maimer.
President Harding today dealt th
olilint' bonus bill what appears to
be a death blow, tie not only reject
ed the bill, but in hi inetsage em
plaining hi act, questioned the poli.
icy of awarding patriotic service with
cash.
Nothing short of a political miracle)
can save the bill. Its supporters, ena
thusiastic in their optimism for two)
year, have now practically gren uu
hope of miracles.
The house of representative un
doubtedly will override the veto by
a wide majoiity tomorrow, but iu the
senate the anti-bonus forces appear
to have control by a slender majority
of two or three votes. Tonight there;
appears to be no present prospect of
a break in their lines.
Senate Behind Harding.
Only 3.1 votes, counting pairs, are
needed to sustain the veto, and the
careful canvass today indicated thai
there would be 35 or 3d votes to sup
port the president.
President Harding vetoed the bo
nus bill and sent it back to congress
for two main reasons which he set
forth at the outset of his message.
First, because it failed to. providn
the revenue to defray its expense.
Second, because, he said, "it estab
lishes the very damrcroua nrcrp,Ui,t
of creating a treasury covenant to
pay wnicn puts a burden, varioinlv
11a.ru octween qrt.uuo.iKJom and
$5,000,000,000, upon the American
people, not to discharge an obliga
tion, which the government always
must pay, but to bestow a bonus
which the soldiers themselves, while
serving in the world war did not ex
pect." Perversion of Funds.
He further declared that a "peace
iestowal on the ex-service men. a
though the supreme offering could
be paid for with cash, is a perversion
of public funds, a reversal of the pol
icy which exalted patriotic service in
the past, and suggests that future
defense is to be inspired by compen
sation rather than consciousness of
duty to flag and country."
Mr. Harding took occasion to call
attention again to the money pent
by the government on disabled vet
erans which he said in the course of
tune would exceed $5,000,000,000. He
predicted that in the years to come
congress would be called upon to ap
propriate money for pensions to
world war veterans and added that
this would cost "more billions than
1 venture to suggest." The govern
ment's ability to meet this prospec
tive outlay wouldbe. serioimtv im
paired, he argued, if the bonus bill
occame a law.
To emphasize further bis eontm-
tion that the treasury can not bear
the additional burden of the bonus,
the president stated that the govern
ment was confronted bv a deficit of
$650,fHt0,(KK) for the current fiscal
and "a further deficit for the year
succeeding, even after counting upon
all interest collections on foreign in
debtness which the government i
likely to receive.'
Governmental Folly.
fo add to our uledae to nav.'-
he added, "except as necessity com
pels, must seem no less than gov
ernmental folly."
The house heard the readinor t,t
the veto message in complete silence.
When the cL'rk bad concluded, there
wa a feeble ripple of applause, prin
cipally from the republican side, it
wa plain that the house was rea.lf
to pas the bill promptly over tba
president's veto, but upon motion ol
Representative Momt.ll, Wyoming,
republican leader, action was dtier
red until tomorrow ""to give mem
bers an opportunity to, tudv it aM
In enable absentee t& return ttt
