ALL FRANCE SPEAKS
THROUGH BRAND, SAY
PARIS NEWSPAPERS
(Bv Associated Press)

PARIS, Nov. 22.-"France speaks
through the mouth of BRAND" is the
almost universal caption in the Paris
morning papers over the account of
the French premier's address at the
Washington conference.
This caption, embodying the sense
of satisfaction with which the speech
is hailed here, comprises almost the
only comment, the cabled text arriv-
ing so late as to preclude extended
discussion. The only exception to
the favorable tone is taken by the
Communist newspaper. L'Humanite,
which uses the headline, BRAND De
fends Frances Militarism."
BRAND pleaded for France before
the conference; he pleaded we'll and
won his case" says the Figaro.
In the same vein is the comment
of L'Oeuvre, a widely read newspaper
which says Ito convince his hearers
he had only to reveal to them the
real heart of France"
While the comment was restricted
the newspapers manner of present
ing the speech showed an unmistak.
able hearty endorsement of II
Brands position in regard to land
ornaments.

VALUE OF COMMUNITY SERVICE To PRESENT

are wrapt up in the solution we make
of these new problems which the goth
century has brought to us.
"The eight hour work day through
legislation, labor saving devices and
labor union agitation has been practi-
cally achieved. Better transportation.
the telephone, the downtown restau-
rants, and factory and school lunch
rooms have still further reduced the
hours necessary to complete the work
ing day.
Yankee inventivenehs has made it
possible for the house wife to com
plete her household duties more quick
ly, while factory, laundry, creamery
and school have relieved her entirely
of many of the ordinary duties of u
generation ago.
The greatest cost to communities
is for jails and police protection; for
homes for delinquent boys and girls;
for hospitals. Over so percent of illeg-
itimacy comes in the leisure time peri

The duty of a community in making
the leisure time of its people an asset
rather than a menace to its life, was
the keynote sounded by Mrs. Paul
Ross in an address delivered before
the music department of the Woman $
club Tuesday morning on why Com
munity Service"
Leisure time, Mrs. Ross said, has
created a new problem in the 10th
century The Americans, she said,
instead of a day of two parts. II hours
for work and II for rest, have three
part day. The directing of this new
leisure into the right channels, espe-
cially for the young life of the com
munity, is one of its big problems, and
the speaker in her talk showed just
what the Community Service has done
and is doing to solve this problem
here.
New Conditions Here
"a new day" Mrs. Ross said, bring
ing with it new conditions, has come
upon us. America leads the world
and in leading. faces new problems
such as are always to be met with

GERMAN NEWSPAPERS
S H 0 W INTEREST AND
.SYMPATHIzE FOR JAPAN
fRv Associated Pressl

BERLIN, Nov. 22.-Japan, although
one of Germany's foes in the world
war, continues to command increasing
measures of sympathy and interest
from the newspaper commentators
writing on th> Washington conference.
Much of the comment is given over
to speculation as to whether Japan
can avoid being left at the post in
what is termed the jockeying for posi-
tion in the race for prestige in the
Pacific
1t is also asked whether Sue will be
able to escape the policy of "ncircle-
ment' to which Germany is .5quested
as falling victim.
Should Jauan emergt rom the con-
ference as an isolated power, the ed
itorial writer's believe Jhe will be
forced to seek economic and political
orientatio in the direction of Russia,
with terminal facilities" in Germany.
"a community of interests" compris-
ing Teutons, Slavs and the yellow
races is suggested as one of the pos
sibilities to be reckoned with in max
ing over the postwar world. Thus
Germany conCeives new Constella-
tiou in which the fatherland is, destin-
ed to shine brightly.
Presented in High Circles
Such speculations is not confined 10
the lay mind but is presented in all
solemnity in higher quarters, where II
is believed the absence from the con
ference of Germany and Russia will
mean the eventual curtailment OF
Japan'S sphere of influence
Aside from these conjectures, both
public and official Germany continue
to evince only passing interest in he
program of the conference.
There have been expressions Of ap
proval of the meeting and its aims
from time to time but these were
merely the sporadic utterances of pro
, fessional pacifists.
The former military leaders main
tain an attitude of scepticism. The
bulk of the newspapers give the pro
ceedings in Washington only perfume

LONDON, Nov. 22-In commenting
on Premier Brands speech before the
Washington conference, London morn
ing newspapers follow the respective
attitude which they have maintained
toward Frances policy in keeping a
big army.
There is one section of opinion which
sees in France a militaristic. revenge

stantly distrustful of Germany and
consequently regards France as justi-
fed in keeping prepared for a pos
sible fresh attack.
The Times. always skeptical as to
Germany's actual disarmament, says:
With a chronic menace hanging over
her. it would be criminal folly for
France to relax her vigilance" and

about safety for the institutions OF

The Daily Mail comments in a sim

situation in Europe, the latter news

PENROSE and
HEFLIN STAGE
SENATE FIGHT
Disorder Marks Beginning Of
Consideration of Confer
ence Report on Tax Bill
Engage in Verbal Clash.
G. O. P. SEEKING SPEED
(RY Associated Pressl

WASHINGTON, Nov. 22-Disorder
today marked the beginning of senate
consideration of the conference report
On the tax bill, the climax being reach
ed in the unusual procedure of ex
punging senatorial remarks from the
record
The words stricken out were con-
tanned in a verbal clash between Sen
ators Penrose, Republican, Pa, and
Heflin, Democrat, Ala, in which Mr..
Penrose referred to the black dark
ness" of the state represented by Mr.
Heflin, and the Alabama senator char
acterized Mr.. Penrose's state as man
ipulated predatory interests"
Bearing the stamp of house approval
by the overwhelming majority of 232
to 109, there was doubt as to the full
force of the opposition that would de.
velop in the senate, but Republican
leaders said they were determined to
put the measure through in time for
morrow night.
To Fight Three Proposals
Senate conferes receded on only
the senate but in many cases they
found it necessary to accept house
amendments to the senate changes.
Apparently there are three major
proposals around which much OF the
opposition in the senate will revOlve-
the striking out of the increased in
heritance tax and the gift tax amend
ments and the elimination of the
amendment authorizing either house
of congress to obtain income tax re-
turns from the treasury.
An examination of the bill as finally
drafted by the conferees shows that
the tax on carbonated soft drinks
manufactured for sale in closed con.
tainers is limited to a levy of five
cents a gallon on the finished foun
tain syrups used by the manufactur
ers. First announcement with regard
to this tax was that the five cents a
gallon levy was in addition to a ta2
of two cents a gallon on the finished
drinks.
The reductions in the nations ta1
bill for the next calendar year, is esti
mated by the experts on the basis oI
the tax revision bill as rewritten il
conference and approved yesterday by
the house total to 1885, 100000.

WASHINGTON, Nov. %. Shed
tear for that faithful friend of child
hood, the merrygo-round. for when
the summer comes again its gaily
painted menagerie, mounted by laugh
ing kiddies, may not circle about
prancing to raucous tunes of the
hurdy-gurdy. to the shrill shrieking of
the engine whistle.
The untimely end of the merry-go-
round will be brought about by a pro-
vision of the new tax bill, which is
now beyond the amendment stage, &C
cording to prominent Indianapolis
law firm which appealed to the In
diana members of congress to lend
their assistance to save the merry-gn-
round industry from its alleged death
sentence.
1t is pointed out that one OF the pro
visions of the pending bill eXempts
moving picture shows from paying tax

or less, but the provision has no ap
plication to merry-go-rounds or any
other amusements.
