BRITISH SOLDIERS
REMAIN IN CHANAK
r. IS, Sept. 21 ME;'- Ihc Associate i
1". us). ?Great. Bflta n^has refused
c. to ' ically to wvhLraw her troops
from (lanak and has so informed the
fo:ich government. This, was deftni(e:y
stated in official British circles
tonight in reply to a persistent report
i i French quarters that the Brit,
isli f irees would nrohablv he retire*!
on th ? other-side of the straits.
Lord Corson, the British foreign
o niy, wag in communication with
Pr mi -r Lloyd George by telephone
. *..<1 legraph throughout the day, ai\d
the flench premier received notification
late this afternoon of the decision
to hold the troops at Chanakk.
The British government has beei
; advised by military and naval experts
that the troops are in no dan'
ger .of attacq by the Kemallsts. It
further stated that the British navy In
cooperation with the land forces could
withstand -a strong attack by the
Turks, but, if overwhelmed by su
\ ertor numbers which- is regarded as
highly unlikely, the troops could bt
yasily withdrawn, to Gallipoli under
cover of the naval gunds.
Meanwhile, according to dispatches
from Constantinople, the French and
4 Italian contingents have been withdrawn
from the neutral zones By or.
der of their governments. -The British
say they h#ve the assurance of
Premier Poincare himself that the
Turks will not attackk, the premier
declaring that the only danger was
from Turkish irregulars.
M. Poincare, however, has made m]
. ? - v strong plea for the retirement of the
British forces on the ground 'that
such a move would hasten peace and
would cam the more warlike party iu
the Angora government.
A further decision, of the' British
government which will be formally
announced at' tcgnorrow's meeting >a
that its reprssentatives will go^to the
proposed conference with an open
kmind and will refuse to concede the
Turkish claims to Thrace, Adrianople
and Constantinople in advance of the
peace meeting. The two - decisions
HQpomo as a great diaappointment -to
SET The British contend that if the
Turkish demand were accepted im
' mediately there would be need of a
f. conference. Complete accord between
France and 'Great Britain, therefore,
HK > is remote. Tomorrow's session of the
allied conference will confine itself Lo
fixing the date and place for the conference
and the possible drawing up
of the agenda.
Ferid Bey, the ationalist representative
in Paris, informed the_Associated
Press this evening that the
< reply of the Angora government regarding
the conference would probably
come within two or thrao day:\
"Whether there is trouble in Asia
Minor and an advance of our forces
into our rightful territory depends
entirely on the good will of Great
Britain," said the Turkish envoy. "If
Great Britain gives ap indication that
she will grant our . just demands for
Thrace, Constantinople and Adrianople
our forces would remain where
there are, pending the conference. If
we do not get this assurance Turkey
will be forced to make further sacrifices
for her rights. We prefer to
obtain our rights by diplomacy, an 1
peaceful methods, but we may have to
insist on them by other-means."

MAKING NO PLANS
TO JOIN PARLEY
Washington, Sept. 21.?Suggestions
In press dispatches that Great Britain
would welcome the presence of the
United States in the forthcoming conference
on the problem of the Dardanelles,
brought the statement from
administration officials today that
possible American participation is being
given no consideration in Wasnington.
~
- Since the United States, without
having been consulted, was named m
the treaty of Sevres as one of the
nations to share in an International
administration of the. Dardanelles,
suggestions for American participation
in the proposed peace conference
vtith the Angora government are not
unexpected. It was emphasised today,
however, that whatever interest |
Cbe United States may have in the ultimate
disposition of the problem i*|
confined to the necessity that frtte!

these waters be assured.* Thin far no1

refugees from Smyrna "and as

FORD PLANTS 1
GO TO WORK
Detroit, Sept. 21.?Henry Ford's
'industrial strike" came to an end tl
tonight. ii
At midnight his great automobile E
plants in the Detroit district employ- l<
ing upwards of 70,000 men, and which h
were closed for an indefinite period p
last Saturday at the manufacturer's o
protest against what he termed "ex- f<
cesslve" coal pricea, again were the o
scenes of industrial activity. fi
The order for the reopening of ? the
plants came this forenoon from Edsel tl
Ford, son of the manufacturer and tl
president of the Ford Motor com- n
pany, who made arrangements to oh- c<
tain coal during a long conference in f<
Cincinnati yesterday with 50 mine v,
operators. The reopening order was si
approved by Henry Ford and official ti
announcement giving to the heads of s
Ford workers throughout the coun- n
try, who daily since the shut down r
have scanned the newspaper head- C
lines in their eaferness to learn when b
their wages would start again.
Edsel Ford, in his telegram, copies p
of which were dispatched to every ti
Ford essembling plant in the country, r
said the interstate commerce com- s
mission's latest order permitting the c
flow of fuel to automobile plants, pre- '
viously put in the non-essential class, n
made it possible to obtain a sufficient tl
supply of the class of coal required e
to operate the Ford enterprises. t
Executive offices of the concern, w
that since the shut down have been
the scenes of almost feverish acttvf- s
ty in the effort to solve the company's h
coal problems, saw the setting in mo- t
tion of machinery for the reopening ?
within a few minutes after the presi- r
dent's message was received. It was e
I announced the late night shift of
I workers should report at midnight t
I and that succeeding shifts should re|
sume the usual routine tomorrow. v
| The Ford company, it Was announced, f
: will start at 18:01 o'clock tomorrow
I morning on a capacity production ?
1 Schedule in an effort to catch up on v
accumulated orders. t
The jTeopening order today not only ]
puta aack on tike payrolls the mote ,
small machine shops and accessory t
concerns, chiefly in the Detroit dis- r
i trict, that were obliged to close last t
| week because the Ford company is c
I Iheir sole consumer. These smaller r
! concerns employ some 120,000 men. t
Ford employees who let it be known s
known last Saturday that they feared ?
a protracted shut down received the ?
, news of the receiving plans with un- "0
disguised relief. Knots of workers v
'gathered on the streets of Highland ?

where-the chief Ford plants are lo- 0
cated, as newspaper extras began to r
f.ood the city bringing word that the t
' factories tomorrow would be operat:ng.

The night shift workers in many t
instances hastened to their homes to f
obtain several hours' rest before their a
vacations ended. The same feeling F
of relief was evidenced in all of De- (
troit's business and industrial world.
The Ford closing put nearly half the
district's, workmen out of jobs.

PRESIDENT GIVEN
BROAD AUTHORITY
Washington, Sept. 21.?American,
tariff making will enter a new phase
tomorrow with the coming into force
of the tariff act of 1922. For the
iirst time in history congress has delegated
part >of its authority over taxes
at the customs houses; conferring
upon the president broad powers to
increase or decrease rates and to
change from foreign to American valuation
as the basis for assessing ad
valorem duties on imports.
Referring to the sections carrying
jhis grant of authority, President
Maiding, in attaching his signature to
i he new act today, declared that 'if
we can succeed, and I hope we will
succeed, in making effective the elastic
provisions of this bill this will
prove the greatest contribution toward
progress in tariff making in a ,
entury." * (
The tariff commission created during
the administration of President ,
Wilson will be the agency through
which the president will exercise his '
new authority and present expecta- ;
lions are that its work will rank almost
in importance with. that of the |
interstate commerce commission. The ,
commission wiR make extensive in- .
vestigation into costs of production ?
it home and abroad and will report \
its findings with recommendations for {
rate valuation changes to the presi- ,
dent. t
Applications from manufacturers, |
importers or other interested per*
ons for changes in rates or valua- t
lion basis may be made to either the t
president or the commission, but such f
r.s were addressed to the executive i
would be referred to the commission. ,
The first step would be a determin- ,
ition of whethe# the facts, presented
justified action.. If the decision were j
that they did, investigation, and, per- j
haps, hearings would follow. 0
Chairman Marvin said today the
commission had not yet had time to t
Work out details of methods of pro- ^
cedure: When thiB task has been n
completed rules and regulations will jj
be made public. While the commission
has for years been engaged in 0
making investigation as te differ- _
efrtes in cost ahd production a? home ?
and abroad and gathering facts about
domestic industries, Mr. Marvin said. I
its functions would be greatly enlarged
under the new.
Aside from inquiring into questions
of rates upon the committee will devolve
the ascertaining whether Amer- j
ican commerce afld trade is being .
discriminated against in foreign ,
countries and making recommenda- <
Lions as to means of meeting situa- A
lions where discrimination is deter
. , V 1
mined to exist.
The ascertainment of production <
costs in foreign countries is expected
by commission officials to prove the
most difficult of the varied tasks. It (
is anticipated that in some cases the
i ommission's agents in foreign fields
may meet with obstacles in gathering
all the facts desired. However.

STEAL PRISONER
IN COURT ROOM
1
New York, Sept. 21.?Walter Socolow,
19, wanted in Baltimore on a
charge of murder in connection with
a payroll robbery, was the center of
a football rush in the supreme court
today when three Baltimore detectives
grasped what they seemed to
think was the psychological momeilt
between the dismissal of one writ
of habeas corpus and the signing of
another and hustled him away.
Justice Martin protested vigorously
against such action and ordered
court officers to stop the Baltimore
detectives, but before anything
could be done Socolow and his
captors had sped away i^ an automobile.
Ferry terminals and railroad
stations were being watched by
New York police with orders from tho
court to intercept the prisoner and
uetecuves.
"I never saw anything like it in a
supreme court," said Justice Martin
from the bench. "It's an outrage.
They can't pull off that rou' stuff
in my court room."
Socqlow was in court W\ oesday in
h.abeas corpus proceedings when Assistant
District Attorney Driscoll
isked that the writ Solocow's counsel
sought to be dismissed on the ground
hat it had been sued out after the
prisoner had been committed by a
nagistrate and before the arrival of
he warrant of the governor of Maryand.
" Justice Martin granted the two atorneys
until today to argue the mat;er.
Today Socolow's counsel asked
or a week's continuance and Justice
Uartin dismissed the first writ. A
lew writ, based on the governor's
varrant, had been prepared and was
[bout to be handed to Justice Martin,
t was just at this moment that the
Baltimore detectives seized the prisoner
and dragged him away. i
Justice Martin immediately signed
he writ, served it on the representa- !
ive of the 'district attorney's office
nd declared to a New York police i
ieutenant: 1
"You have that man here .at 2 1

BOYHOOD HOME
HONORS McLEOD
Lynchburg, Sept. 21.?Thomas
Gordon McLeod came back to his boyhod
home tonight to be honored by
his fellow citizens of days gone by
and the celebration was befitting for
the governor-elect of South Carolina.
The little town of BOO people did
itself proud in honoring a native son,
who is soon to become the governor
of the state. The occasion was enhanced
still further by the presence
of Ellison D. Smith, senior senator
from South Carolina, also a native of
Lynchburg.
Featuring the celebration in honor
of the new governor was a barbecue
served in a large tobacco warehouse.
Plates were set for nearly 500 people
and the seats were all occupied. The
tables formed the letter 'M."
The celebration began at 8 o'clock,
but long before this the tobacco warehouse
began filling and when Mr.
McLeod arrived he was oreeted
several hundred of his former fellow
townsmen. As he entered the warehouse
