FINAL DECISION ON
AUXILIARY CRAFT

WASHINGTON, Dec. 29-The
arms conference today entered a
phase of its negotiations which will
determine whether it is to be sue
cessful in imposing limitation on
any class of warcraft except capi-
tol ships. The immediate proposal
before the naval committee was Il
plan of the American government
to limit the tonnage of airplane
carriers to be maintained in the
future navies of the powers. 1t is
on this proposition of proposals
to restrict the use of submarines
and the size of individual warships
of the auxiliary classes that the
American delegation now pins its
hope of amplifying the capitol ship
agreement already reached but to
which France yesterday attached
a reservation as to replacement
The new angle taken by the neg
citations was described to Pres
dent Harding today by Secretary
Hughes, who went to the White
House before the naval committee
met and was closeted for nearly an
hour with the chief executive. The
trend of their discussions was not
revealed but there were indications
that Mr.. Harding was seeking
some means of at least bringing
the powers together at later con-
ference when present strains on
international relations may have
been removed.

toi Games "A. Reed, counsel for
Pelletier,said today in outlining the
defense to this, one of the many
charges on which the prosecutor
Is being tried before the supreme
court, which has power to remove
him.
The charge made by Atty. Gen.
Allen was that the district attorney
improperly threatened Miss Cote
with criminal prosecution to in
fiuence her to drop the suit and
that in making the alleged threat
Pelletier conspired with Daniel H.
Coakley, a local attorney, whose
client, Guy W. Lawrence, had ori-
glnally given the car to Miss Cote.
William F. McCallum, the law
yer who represented Miss Cote at
the time, came up for cross ex-
animation when the hearing was
resumed this forenoon. Senator
Reed in outlining the Pcllctier de-
fense, declared:
II purpose to show that Miss
Cote and Guy w. Lawrence We're
lovers and had lived together for
a period of several years.
"That they had a violent quarrel
and she went to a lawyer planning
to extort or force Mr.. Lawrence to-,
give up an automobile.
"That she hesitated at actually
bringing the suit hoping to make
up with Lawrence but finally de-
cided after frequent conversations
with her attorney. to bring the
suit which was really black
mailing proceedings;
81 propose to show that Mr..
Pelletier did the perfectly proper
thing in advising this attorney to
go no further with suit of that
sort"
