Defeat Move to Unity
French P Parliament
Socialist Moved That Both
Houses Hold Their Meet
ing at Versailles

Paris, July q (Delayed).-Pierre
Renaudel, leader Of the majority So
cialists in the Chamber Of Deputies,
moved in the Chamber to-day discus
sion of the revision Of the constitution
so as to permit both chambers OF the
parliament to meet together at YER
sailles. The discussion was postponed
indefinitely by vote of lsl to 800.
The Socialist leader argued that the
proposal was in no way a maneuvre
against the prerogatives OF the Presi-
dent, but was intended 70 economic
time, the slowness of the workings OF
the parliamentary system being dan,
eerous in time Of war, as was lnstanced
by the delay in the legislation over the
questions of the payment OF rents, the
Price of coal and the paper crisis, which
last was threatening to imperil the ex-
istence of the newspapers.
When the time for pourparlers be-
tween the belligerents came, NJ. Renau-
del maintained, there would undoubt-
edly be a meeting of the National AS
sembly, so that preparations for such
meeting ought to be made.
CASTOR Thomson, former Minister Of
Commerce, who had reported against
NJ. Renaudel's bill, opposed the pro-
posal, causing laughter by suggesting
that it would lead to other propositions,
such as the suppression of the Presi-
dency. Premier Ribot spoke in opposl-
ton to any weakening Of the country
institutions as constituting a weaken
ing ofythe national defence.

Finnish Freedom Asked
OF Russian Government

Helsingfors. Finland, July 2s.-The
Finnish Diet has adopted a resolution
for presentation TO the Russian gov
eminent, in which 1t is pointed out that
while the Russian revolution put an
end to the enslsvement of the Finnish
people by the government Of the En-
peror the Diet nevertheless is Of this
opinion:
1.-THE introduction in Russia Of new
political regime does not give the Pro-
visional Government the right to ad-
minister Finland, for that would be
equivalent, as before, to the restriction
Of Finland's constitution and would
seriously compromise her political sit
uation.
an order TO maintain the internal
independence Of the country which its
constitution guarantees TO it," con-
tinues the resolution, at has been nee
essary TO transfer the internal govern
ing power. which must be fundamental
ly national, to the Finnish nation"
The address gives assurance that the
rights of Russian citizens in Finland,
as we'll as those Of the Jews. will not
undergo any modification, and declares
that to live in harmony with the Rus
sian people has always been and will
be an essential condition of the pros
perity of Finland

The following cablegram was received

SOLDIERS and sailors at Sevastopol
have demolished the headquarters Of
the Extremists. Sevastopol is the most
important Black Sea port and was the
scene of disturbances at the time Ad-
miral Glennon, of the American Com

fleet.
"A feeling of resentment is growing
among the radical and labor element OF
the capital against the prosecution OF
the Extremists and against being &C
cused of serving the interests OF Ger

the government formal protest.

Britain's Airship
Output Is Tripled
Programme for Defence and
Offence Grows With
Rapidity

London. July 6.-The output of air
craft in Great Britain is considerably
on the increase, according to DR.. Addi-
son, Minister of Munitions. He stated
that since last January, when the min
istry became responsible to the flying
services for supply, the programme had
been steadily and largely increased. 1t
was still expanding, and no limit could
be set to it until the country had
enough airplanes and seaplanes both
for attack and defence. DR.. Addison
said:
"No fewer than hundred factories
are engaged on some process or other
connected with the construction and
equipment Of the flying machine. Out
put is increasing by leaps and bounds.
II, for the purpose of comparison, you
put the number of airplanes produced
in May, 1916, at 100, then in May of
this year the number rose to rather
more than 800. Even this rate of in
crease is being accelerated. The output
in December will be twice what it was
in April, and the December total will
be far surpassed in succeeding months.
The number of airplane engines turned
out monthly has been more than
doubled this year already, and this
total will be doubled again before the
close of the year.
"a growing number Of workers are
employed in the airplane factories, the
increase IN the last five months being
rs per cent on the previous total. To
meet the demand for labor, special
schools have been started all over the
country, where a training Of about two
months qualities a pupil to carry out
some simple process in airplane manu-

American Military
Commission in Turin
rrrom Ths Tribuns Bureau


Washington. July 28.-An American
military commission. engaged in the
inspection OF airplanes and dlrigible
plants and other military works in
italy has arrived at Turin. according
to dispatches from Rome to-day. The
commission is visiting several Italian
cities.
Rome, July 2s.-Both the army and
civilians are enthusiastic over a report
that the United States government pur-
poses to send aviators to the Italian
front. King Victor Emmanuel sought
information on this subject from the
American mission while here and the
American Embassy has taken up the
matter.
Official opinion here is convinced that
America can give the speediest aid to
secure an early victory by sending
