GREAT BRITAIN ABANDONS HOPE LOCARNO PARLEY EUROPEAN DISSENSION AS SIGNED AS CAUSE OF FAILURE LONDON, July 14 (TP) .—British officials apparently abandoned hope today of getting the Locarno powers together for a conference this month. The conference had been called for July 22 at Brussels to discuss German remilitarization. Now Premier Mus solini demands that Germany be al lowed to attend the party. France opposed German admission on the grounds that Chancellor Hitler had let himself out when he renounced the Locarno pact last spring. Italy also insisted that all Britain’s Mediterranean guarantees be dropped. Great Britain still clings to the naval agreements she made with Mediter ranean nations when the Ethiopian war brought the League of Nations down on Italy. British officials say the only chance of holding a Locarno confer ence at all is to persuade France to relent on her opposition to Germany. Unless the conference is attended by the full five powers it is feared that no conference will be held at all. BRIBERY CHARGES ARISE FROM LIQUOR CONTROL OAKLAND, Cal..

W. G. WARNELL. Attorney for Petitioners. STATE OF GEORGIA CHATHAM COUNTY: In the Office of Clerk of Superior Court of Said County. I, William L. Grayson, Clerk oi the Superior Court of Said County hereby certify that the foregoing is a true and correct copy of the appll cation for charter, as the same ap pears of file in this office. This 14th day of July, 1936. WILLIAM L. GRAYSON, Clerk of Superior Court. “Our purpose is to revive an inter est in the temperance cause and to do what we can to make it ‘a house by the side of the road and a friend to man’. I have been a pastor for five year, and we hear a good deal about Carrie Nation yet.” When Hatchet Hall is rebuilt, it will be made into "a national temper ance and religious education tourist home, according to the Reverend Selle. Carrie Nations raids were spectacu lar. Those were the days when saloons operated freely, inspiring the author ship of “Ten Nights in a Bar Room” and similar ditties. Carrie’s first smashing act was staged on June 6, 1899, when she wrecked a place at Kiowa Kas. From then on she be came known “smashing Carrie Na tion.” Her followers termed her a “Loving Home Defender” and for 12 years she traveled throughout the United States, Canada and once went to old Mexico, England and Scotland. She landed in jail 33 times. Her last raid was in the Union station in Wash ington D. C. Although liquor was the biggest foe she recognized during her eventful life, Mrs. Nation had a strong desire to eradicate all forms of vice. When she led a march on a saloon even the toughest of the tough saloon loafers soon scattered to a place of safety. Armed with a hatchet, she also be came known as the “hatchet woman.” Bom in Kentucky on Nov. 25, 1846, in Garrard county, she became re» ligiously minded early in childhood and joined the Christian church. On Nov. 21, 1867 she married a Dr. Gloyd, but was left a widow in less than a year and a half, with a six month-old girl. Carried became personally acquaint ed with the evils of liquor because Dr. Gloyd according to old news paper stories, was a heavy drinker. Following her unfortunate experiences with liquor in her own family, she stated out to reform the world, al though she did not take up her fam ous hatchet until a number of years later. She married again, this time to David Nation, editor of a weekly newspaper at Warrensburg Mo., who was also a lawyer and an ordained minister. Her second marriage was another failure, however, because her husband was not in sympathy with his wife’s crusades. God has given me a mission ” she told him. "I dare not turn back. Shall I hearken unto God or unto man? Judge ye.” But Nation divorced his wife. He died in 1907, four years before Car rie. In December. 1910, Mrs. Nation’s health was failing and she returned to Hatchet Hall here for a rest. It was quiet, and in the afternoons she liked to sit on the porch and read. She preferred the solitude of Hatchet Hall to the hustling, bustling cities with their saloons and vice. She was taken to a Kansas City hospital for treatment two weeks lat er and died soon afterward, at the age of 65. Mrs. Kendrick who was Mrs. Na tion’s secretary the last three years of her life, is interested in seeing the cursader’s temperance work carried on. So is the Reverend Selle. They believe by making a memorial of Hatchet Hall that the name of Carrie Nation will be preserved for all time.
