Wathington, CKW 5. Three

and Portugal were Jnvite J ljr the
United Statet fovernsient to partici-
rate in the di uio of IViiic ami
Sar eut queitiotti in connection itn

tvai made known hy high almini-
tration cfiicult that the Untied
State doe i not anticipate considera
tion o( interallied UobU at ine con
ierence.
, The formal invitations to the three
additional nations were forwarded to
the respective capital and were ex
tended after correspondence hetween
Secretary Hughes and the four prin
cipal powers originally invited to
send representatives to the confer-
mce. The important interests of
each of the three nations in the far
east led to the extension of the in
vitations. ,
China was invited to participate in
the Pacific and far eastern discus
sions when the first invitation were
issued and acceptance by Belgium,
Holland and Portugal, which is re
tarded here as assured, will mean
that nine nations will sit together
when such discussions are entered,
into.
Debts Not in Category.
The question of armament limita
tion will be discussed only by the
five major powers.
The attitude of the administration
with relation to discussion of the
interallied debts was developed in
connection with recently published
(suggestions in London that the
British would welcome consideration
of loan matters at the Washington
meeting. Officials here were repre
sented as taking the view that the
conference should be limited to mat
ters which might involve differences
of a nature likely to lead to armed
conflict. Interallied debts is not
considered by officials here in that
category.
The further statement was made
that the American delegation at the
forthcoming conference, lacking con
gressional authority, could not agree
to such consideration of debt ques
tions, even if it was desired that it
should be .undertaken. The admin
istration's desire that debt-fi'nding
legislation be enacted in advance of
, the conference, it was said, was based
bn practical matters and not on
anxiety that the debt question might
arise to disturb harmony among the
conferees.
Text of Invitation.
The invitations to the three addi
tional nation were accompanied by
the tentative suggestions as to the
conference program, insofar as it re
lates to Pacific and far eastern ques
tions, and were identical in language.
That sent to Belgium reads ts fol
lows: ' ' - . ?
"The invitation of the president of
the United States to France, Great
Britain, Italy and Japan . to send
represetatives to a conference to be
held in the city of 1 Washington on
November 11, 1921, on limitation of
armaments, in connection with which
Pacific and far eastern questions will
also be discussed, has been graciously
accepted. The government of China
also has accepted the president's in
vitation to participate in the discus
sion of Pacific and far eastern ques
tions. "It is the earnest wish, to this gov
ernment that with the facilities af
forded by a conference it may he pos
sible to find a solution of Pacific and
far eastern problems by a practical
effort to' reach such common under
standings with respect to : matters
which have been and are. of interna
tional concern as may serve to pro
mote enduring friendship.
"In view of the interest of Belgium
in the far east, the president de
sires to invite your excellency's gov
ernment to participate in the discus
sion of Pacific and far eastern ques
tions at the conference and I have
the honor to enclose herewith the
tentative suggestions as to the con
ference, relating to Pacific and far
.astern questions proposed by the
government of the United States."

Ambitious Heiress
P Kiss- Muriel
Miss Muriel McCormick, heiress to two fortunes, grand-daughter of
the World's richest man, John I). Rockefeller. Her life's ambition is fame
in the theater. Whether it be opera or drama, she does not know, but Miss
McCormick hopes it is opera. She attends the opera every night in its
season and goes to every rehearsal. Her dress is black and white, for
she believes one's colors should express one's personality.
Miss McCormick said she planned to make her debut last year in the
Burgh theater. That is as famous in Vienna as the Comedie Francaise is
in Paris. "But the newspapers published about two lines on my work and
my study and almost a whole page on who my parents were and who my
grandfather was, I was disgusted. I determined that I should never ap
pear on the stage if I could only be 'sent off' by my family."

Wood Retires to
Become Governor
Of Philippines
General Voluntarily Termi
nates 36 Yean Active Serv
ice in Army to Assume His
New Duties.
Washington, Oct. S. MaJ. Gen.
Leonard Wood, retired today from
active service in the army to accept
appointment as governor general of
the Philippine Islands, thua termi
nating voluntarily more than 36
vears of distinguished mil'tary life,
His retirement was caused by .in
sistence of administration officials
that he accept the new post and the
refusal of congress to permit him to
do so while continuing bis active
army status.
In announcing the general I retire
ment. Secretary Weeks said he
would select a vice governor for the
islands and expected immediately to
commiss'on General Wood to duty
as governor general.
Entered Army in 1885.
General .Wood began- his army
career as a surgeon in June, 1885,
immediately entering service with
troops in the Apache campaign in
Arizona and Northern Mexico. As
commander of an infantry detach
ment in that campaign, he was com
mended "for gallant and hazardous
service, courage and energy" and
later was awarded the Congressional
medal of honor, the highest com
pliment the nation has to give, for
distinguished conduct in the Apache
fighting.
When the Indians were pacified
and their leader, Geronimo, taken,
the surgeon dropped his fighting
weapons temporarily and again re
turned to the practice of medicine
and surgery at army headquarters in
Arizona. When the spanish-Amer-ican
war was declared in 1898 he re
entered combat ranks, organized and
commanded the First United States
volunteer cavalry (Rough Riders)
and later was transferred to com
mand the Second brigade cavalry di
vision in the Cuban campaign, in
which capacity he entered the fight
at Las Guasimas and San Juan.
Governor of Santiago.
When the Spanish forces surren
dered the general was appointed mili
tary governor of Santiago, com
mander of the department of San
tiago and civil enginees of that prov
ince and military governor of the
island of Cuba. He turned the gov
ernment of the island over to
Thomas Palma, first president of the
republic of Cuba, in 1902 and re
turned to the United States.
About a year later he was ordered
to proceed to the Philippines as com
mander of the department of Min
danao, t
He also acted as civil governor of
the Moro provinces and in other ad
ministrative work until 1908. The
experiences and -understanding of the
natives thus gained and later as a
member of the . special commission
sent by the president to investigate
conditions, in the Philippines un
doubtedly were responsible for his
selection for the new post His rec
ord in the world war began with his
assignment to select for the War de
partment the sites of the great ma
jority of the training camps for na
tional guard and national army
troops in the southeastern depart
ment, which he then commanded,
Trained 89th Division.
Later he was assigned to Camp
Funston, Kan., to organize the
Eighty-ninth division. With other
divisional officers he went on a pre
paratory inspection trip to France
while the American army was in the
making and was injured there by the
bursting of a French gun.
On his return to the United States
General Wood completed the train
ing of the Eighty-ninth for battle,
but got no chance to serve with it
abroad, as he was relieved on tli
eve of embarkation, precipitating ;
controversy that raged in the press
for months, even during General
Wood's campaign for the republican
nomination lor the presidency.
An achievement for which General
Wood has been greatly praised was
the development of the "Plattsburg
idea" of civilian training camps,
evolved as a measure of prepared
ness before the United Mates en
tered the world war.
Wood Praised in Letter
By Secretary of War Weeks
Washington. Oct 5. Major Gen
eral Wood was declared to have
done more to remedy America's un
preparedness prior to the nation's en
trance into the world, war than any
other individual, in a letter written
by Secretary of War Weeks to the
general whose retirement from the
active list of the army became effec
tive, permitting him to assume the
governorship of the Philippine is
lands. . ...
Briefly reviewing the officers
military career. Mr. Weeks said,
"the wise foresieht" displayed by
ftenera! Wood in onzanizing the
citizens' military trqaining camps be

Absent Ones Returning. '
Several very well-known Omaha
men are speeding to Omaha from
distant places to answer criminal in
dictments returned against them by
the late grand jury.
This was made known last nipht
by Assistant Attorney General-rMc-Guire.
-
Some of these will reach Omaha
today and will be placed under ar
rest by the sheriff. ,
The total number of men indicted
for alleged wildcat" promotion op
erations is between 50 and 60, Mr.
McGuire stated. The total number
of indictments is 97, but some In
dividuals are indicted on several
charges. Fifteen men and one wom
an have been taken into custody. So
there are still 35 to 45 to be ar
rested. Deputy sheriffs who have found
various individuals out of the city
when they went to arrest them left
word with their attorneys or rela
tives to summon them back at once.
The attorney general's office does
not apprehend that any great per
centage of the absent ones will at

Alliance School Bonds
Will Be offered for Sale
Alliance. Neb.. Oct. 5. (Special.)
The Alliance school board at a
special meeting voted to offer . for
sale 'bonds for the building of a new
high school' and grade building.
More than a year ago a bond issue
of $250,000 was .voted for this pur
pose, but the bonds were not put on
the market because of. the low prices
being offered by the -bonding com
panies. Recently several inquiries
have been received from bonding
firms wanting to buy the bonds and
offering -better prices than before.
Owing to ; the decreased cost of
building material and labor probably
only $200,000 of the bonds will be
sold, as this is deemed sufficient to
construct the two-buildings.

I Commerce Says
Washington, Oct. 5. Active
American participation In the eco
nomic stabilisation and rehabilita
tion of Europe is recommended in
a report by a special committee of
the Chamber oi Commerce of the
United States, winch has juot re
turned from an extended investiga
tion of conditions abroad.
The committee includes three Chi
cagoans and Joseph II. Defrees,
president of the chamber; Sitae
'Strewn and Robert V. Laniont,
president of the American Steel &
roundry company.
A chief obstacle, at present, to a
return to normal business conditions
throitshout the world, the commit'
tee asserts, is found in the armed
conflicts in progress and in the con
tinued threat of renewed clashes.
Business will not resume its forward
movement, it is declared, until the
menace of recurring warfare is re
moved.
- Conclusions of Committee.
Conclusion of the committee fol
low:
"There is a heavy financial bur
den involved in continuing the
armies of occupation, but the re-
moval of this load depends on some
effective plan for the maintenance
of peace, on which the nations shall
unite.
"The United States and the allies
should present a solid front in de
manding that Germany make good
in the matter of reparations.
"The United States should parti
cipate in the work of the repara
tions commission and in the work
of the other commissions now ex
isting or to be created, which may
deal with economic and financial
questions which affect the United
States.
"There should be formed an in
ternational commission of business
men to aid the reparations com
mission in working out difficult prob
lems concerning reparations.
"The United States should not
withdraw at this time, its army on
the Rhine.
"The world is operating on a ba
sis of less than cne-half of the pre
war standard.
Peace Not Established.
. "The consumption of 300,000,000
persons is reduced to 30 per cent of
normal.
"The stronger nations cannot ad
vance credit to relieve the situation
unless there is assurance of stable
conditions.
"Peace still is not established,
three years after the armistice.
"The present German government
is trying 'to meet the required rep
arations payments.
"If the opposition gets control in
Germany and attempts to evade or
repudiate the reparations settlements
a crisis' will be precipitated which
will be a jstill further menace to
peace.
"France and other countries bor
dering bn Germany need protection
against future attacks, ..
"Financial aid cannot be extended.
to Germany to enable it to pur
chase raw materials with which to
manufacture goods for the purpose
of paying its obligations unless there
remains a strong central . govern
ment." Teachers' Institute
