Newspapers of London Insist
on Conference on 4rmaments

ately notified Japan of the fact. ia
pan was told that the agreement to
submit disputes between the United
States and Great Britain to investiga-
ton by a permanent international
commission constituted an exemption
on Great Britain's part to aid Japan.
Repeat Declarations
"If that does not explode all un-
easiness about an Anglo-Japanese at
ia ck," said the newspaper. "the sus-
picion must be beyond the power of
reasoning"
Reiterating its advocacy of an agree
ment between the three powers, the
Morning Post contended such an
agreement should not infringe upon
the province of the league of nations.
and among other things urged it
would be much more profitable to all
concerned to agree as friends rather
than compete as rivals.
Agree With Daniels
"The British government" said the
Daily News, definitely favors such
an international conference on disarm-
aments as was proposed by Josephus
Daniels, United States secretary of
navy, and maintains it is the function
of the league of nations to call it.
This would meet any possible objec-
tions here. America, while not a
member of the league, participated in
the Brussels financial conference and
thus would not be retrea ting from her
position regarding the league"

TOURS, France, Dec 3o.-The right
wing of the Socialist today declared
itself to be the Socialist party or
France. It's members have control OF
a considerable part of the party funds
and also Of the newspaper "Humanste'
which is in the name of Deputy Marcel
Sembat and various other individual
Socialists, but in reality belongs to the
Socialist party.
Efforts of the party to present
united front relative to the adhesion
of the organization to the Third Inter
nationals of Moscow have been una
vailing and it appeared that the party
had been split into three factions.
These were the left wing which has
voted to obey explicitly the commands
of Nikolai Lenine. Russian Bolshevik
premier: the Centrists, who favor ad-
herring to the Moscow Internationals.
but who urge reservations to the terms
imposed, and the Right wing, which
has opposed throwing the organization
completely in to the hands of the
communists.
Demands Expulsion.
Last nights session of the Socialist
congress which is meeting here de-
veloped into a wild and stormy sitting
G. S. Zinovieff, Bolsheviki governor of
Moscow, had sent message to the
congress demanding in the name Of
the Moscow executive committee that
the Centrists should be branded the
determined agents of "bourgeoise in
fuence and elements with which the
Third Internationale can have nothing
in common" and expelled from the
party.
A long debate ensued. A resolution
was then introduced by M. Mistral.
stating that the party refused to carry
out the demand for expulsions, but 1t
received only 1898 votes, 143 ballots
not being cast.
Great disorder prevailed in the hall,
younger and more ardent delegates
shouting "Apaches," and frequently
coming to blows NJ Paoli, leader of
the Right wing, then rose and an
nounced the Socialist party would
meet at the City hall at 10 o'clock
He was followed by NJ. Faure of the
Centrists, who declared that as M. Mis-
trails motion, stating conditions upon
which the Centrists would remain in
the party, had been rejected, the mem
hers of that faction would meet at ~
O'Clock this morning to consider what
action would be taken. Members of
the Right Wing then walked out, but
the Centrists remained.
M. Frossard then announced that
''the Socialist party of France will
continue it's session in this very hall"
and adjournment was taken a little
later.
1t was agreed here this morning that

methods of distribution were taken UP

ion miners indicted at Indianapolis on
charges of conspiracy, was followed by
statement that the committee would
not at this time call Mr.. Sims to testi-
fy. The decision to temporarily excuse
Mr.. Sims was reached, it was said be-
cause of the fact that the conspiracy
cases still were pending. and public
consideration of the governments leg

al to the defendants.

The conferences today with the

renewed confidence which is the
actual result on the recognition on

MILNE OUT; BOARD
SEEKS new OFFICIAL

w. A. Milne, of Muncie, who had
signed contract to assume the duties
of secretary of the Richmond Cham
ber of Commerce, on Jan. l, 1921, was
released from the agreement Wednes-
day evening, by the board of directors.
Mr. Milne requested that he be freed
on ordr that he might accept an offer
from Cincinnati, at about three times
the amount he was to have received
here.
Applications for the vacancy created
are said to be on file at the headquar-
ters. Members of the board of direc-
tors believ that they can obtain a man
as capable as Mr.. Milne, for the secre-
taryship within a short time.
The following statement was issued
last night by the board of directors: ::
"Mr. W. A. Milne of Muncie, Ind.
who was to take the duties of secre-
tary of the Chamber of Commerce has
been released from his contract owing
to the fact that he has been offered a
very much better position in the indus
trial field at Cincinnati, at salary at
three times that offered by us, togeth.
er with a partnership in the business.
The board regrets very much to re-
lease Mr.. Milne, but thinks it would
be unfair and unjust to him not to do
so in view of the unusual business op-
portunity offered him. This is par
ticularly true because Mr.. Milne had
not yet assumed his duties here and
the Chamber of Commerce has not
been handicapped in securing a COM
petent secretary. The board has sew
eral able and experienced men under
consideration for the secretaryship and
will select the best man possible"
