Lady Astor h whkh was prepared to- day for the annual luncheon ol the Associated Press defined as the pearl of great price which she was striv ing to place in public life by entering politics, "what any man gets from his mother and most men get from their wives if they choose wisely un selfishness, vision, courage and cleanness." But, said the first woman to be seated in the British house of com mons, to turn to practical politics, what the world needs most in ? prac-i tical way is work. Establish con fidence first confidence between cap ital and labor-, then confidence in your government, then confidence among the nations. Then, she continued, was where the press came in. "It is for the press to unite countries for traile and prosperity and peace, x x x I know many of the American foreign correspondents, xxx They are most able men, a credit t0 the American press. They are trustworthy. That is the opinion formed by the people who know in England. If the press wants to unite people it can. If it wants to disunite them, it can.

Trial of an other woman for murder in Brook lyn set for yesterday as a sequal to a tragedy that already has cost three lives, has been postponed indefinite- J.y. It is the case of Mrs. Lillian Rai zen, who shot Dr. Abraham Gilick stein, Brooklyn physician, to death in his office last December. It follows close on the heels of the trial of Miss Olivia M. P- Stc'ne, graduate nurse who recently was acquitted of a chaige of murdering Ellis G. Kin-kead,,- former corporation counsel of Cincinnati ; in Brooklyn last fall. Indeed,' the cases .hnve points of similarity. In both cases, the defendants have told a . talc' of betrayal at the hand of the man thev killed--In both- ease--? a defense of insanity was made or in dicated. In bct.h cases a triangle ex isted. A celhrfate cf Miss Stone's in the Raymond Street Jail, Mrs. Raizen followed closely every move in the Kinkead case, and at night the. two women would sit up late cha tting over details of the trial- Another point at which the cases crossed trails came shortly after the acquittal of Miss Stone, when Mrs Anna Glickstein, the physician wid ow, leaped to her death from a win dow in her home. "Any woman can commie murder now." Mrs. Glickstein said before she killed herself," especially a wom an like Mrs. Raizen- She; will be freed, too. All she will have to do is to say she was insane." As dramatic as the suicide of the widow was ithe death of the physi ciann's aged mother, Mrs. Lena Glickstein on the bier of her beloved sion, she fell dead across the coffin- The shooting itself occurred in the doctor's office. Three patients were waiting to see him, among them Mrs. Raizen, heavily veiled. She was called into the office, remained a few moments I end left hurriedly When other pat ients open the doctor's door, Glick stein was found dead- Mrs- Raizen had fired the shot which killed her victim through bev muff. Then after police had hunted hi vain for two days for the slayer, she crave herself up .td the district attor- NS ATTRACTS IERST Close nev- She pleaded that Glickstein, be i s no "fore her marriage had wronged her, and had forced her to two operations which he, himself, performed - The defendant is expected to plead insanity.

"The general being alone, compli ed and while has -arms were raised the assailants fhed into him- Sevei' al of the mutineers' officers were arrested." By the Associated Press. Genoa, April 25. The Genoa con ference is drifting toward the rocks again. Whether it can be kept from wreckage depends upon the possibil ities of adjusting the new depamds of the Russian government with the allied governments who declare they will steadfaistly stand by the demands adpoted at Cannes, where the confer ence was founded. The situation was made more critical by the French premier's frank warning at Bar le Due yester day that France will withdraw be fore she will see the ideas presented by the Russians triumph. These French demands include maintenance of the war rep'ara- tions figures, disbarment of all dis armament discussion and no changes at Genoa on existing treaties. In addition France insists on rigid ad hevende to 'the Cannes resolution which calls or the payment of .Rus sian pre-war debts and the restora tion of foreign property in Russia. The conference of experts on the Russian question broke up yesterday and adjourned sine die because the exports found the powers in absolute eontradition with the soviet. TELLS W New York, April 25. Life on a farm drove Henry Fod'd into making automobiles. Mr- Ford says so himself in an ar ticle which Ire calls "My Life and Work" written by himself in Mc Ciure's Magazine for May, with the collaboration of Samuel Crojvther, author and editor. And Mr. Ford still feels the same way about farming. Not that he has anything against farmers, he points out, but there is "too much hard hand labor on farms" Because he was born on a farm and knew with cut question just what farming means, Mr. Ford invented an auto mObile with which he hoped, first, to lighten the farmer's and, second, to aid people without a lot of money in their search for enjoyment and busi ness relief. That in a nutshell, is what Mr. Fc'rd's article gives as the reason for the Ford car. Incidentally it is the reason for his interest in farm tractors and for alo t of other things whichi have happended in De troit recently- The automobiles, however, barely escaped being a watch Mr. Ford had a desire to do fine mechanical work Gen- CONFERENCE NOW DRIFTING IN ROCKS and his ideas naturally turned tohe says, he almost started in. th -watches, he says.

Jr.) Viil the Hickory high school be in like race for the high school base ball championship this year? Mdst assuredly., and with all .he pcArtp and pep recjuired to make the other high ! . ' a" t-c ince. mis muslioii ims oev:: asKect repeated v by people who have shown their in tcrest in local high school athletics, a ndj .specially l.hoo who at some time during their high school carreer played on the "famous nine". Thus the above answer is given and to back i: up, we have ctiv to cast our eyes at xde wonderful record the boys have already made tins season. "Meeting high schools throughout western North Carolina" has been their slogan, and after meeting them, their chances for the state pennant seems more likely. The local iboys are a dandy bunch of sports who enjoy extending a chal lenge .to the high schools of this sec tion, but who do not enjoy having their challenges ignored by ever-sought-rivals- There are schools who have been asked for games, but no response has been given cur boys. The only reason that can be stated is that our locals are just a little too dangerous for them. Thev are anx ious to meet these school because they enjoy the rivalry between them and to show them that, they are good sports when it comes to athletics. The record of the local baseball club speaks for itself. Games have been played with many of the high schools in this section of the state and several more are on the sched ule for this season. In all the eleven games played thus far, the Hickor ites have lost only one high school game and that was by a close score of 11-10. Seeking revenge for this defea,t which was at the hands of Lenoir, a neighboring school, tljpy met them on their diamond just a little later and administered a 5-1 licking thereby redeeming them selves beyond any doubt. The boys have just returned from their western trip which was very succcessful. In the next few. days thev will meet Stateaville, Spencer, Gastonia, and thle strong club from Shelby coached by Dick Gurley, for mer N- C. State football star. Games are being arranged with Charlottee, Asheville, and other larger schools of western North Carolina. During the season, the local players have piled up 78 runs against 37 for their opponents A great deal of credit is due sev eral of the members of the club. All of them deserve special mention but eweing to the lack of space praise can be given to only jtwo of the local stars. Namely, Hawn who has had the honor of twirling a no hit game: and to Jones, who, not being satis fied with his splendid basket-ball season comes out as shining light in the local high school pitching staff. - OY WINS PRIZE By the Associated Press.
