FORMER FRENCH
 PREMIER SAYS
 NO PEACE MOVE
RibOt Characterizes Erzberger's Statement as ''DistOrtiOn of
 Truth"

Paris, July 28.-"A distortion of the truth" was the, characterization applied today by Alexandre Ribot to the recent statement of Matthias Erz- berger, the German finance minister, declaring that Great Britian and France made peace overtures to Ger many through the vatican in 1917, which Germany rejected.
 M. Ribot, who was French premier and foreign minister at the time in question, made this declaration in a statement to Marcel Hutin of the Echo de Paris.
 The former premier explained the occurance as follows:
 "Pope Benedict in August, 1917 suggested proposals to serve as a basis for overtures to Germany France and Great Britain both decided to decline the proposals. The politest acknowledgement was made to the pope but nothing more. The British minister to the vatican, in his own name, pointed out that the proposals did not contain sufficient guarantees for Belgium"
 Cardinal Gasparri, the papal secra- tary of state, M. Ribot continued seized up onthis to telegraph Germany for explanations on the subject of Belgium. It was an attempt to start conversation, M. Ribot declared, but the British government cut it off short and the British minister went nc further.

Governor Without Pardon or Parole Power in Such Cases,
 Court Decides.

County Judge R. H. Williams re- cent ruling, upon the petition of At torney H. Kemp Toney, ordering. the release of two boys held at the Boys Industrial school, near Pine Bluff, brought to light that the governor is without authority to pardon or par ole boys sent to the schol. This was the contention of MT. Toney at the beginning of the case. Attorney Gen. eral John D. Arbuckle. Circuit Judge John w. Wade of Little Rock, a member of the board of control of state institutions, indicated he might carry the case to the supreme court in order to have the question defin- itely settled.
 The attorneys general came here yesterday at the request of and ac- companied by Judge Wade to serve as counsel for John Deaton superin- tendent of the school. Mir. Deaton, under instruction of the board, had refused to comply with the Jefferson juvenile courts order to release two of the boys and was cited for con- tempt. After hearing MT. Toney's presentation of the case, and the law, the attorney general acquiesced in the view of Judge Williams, sit ting as juvenile court judge, that as the boys sent to the school have not been convicted of any offense, they are entirely and exclusively within the Jurisdiction of the juvenile or county court.
 With Judge Wade agreeing that the boys would be released in ac- cord with the court order, the con- tempt charge was dismissed.
