DENY TROUBLE BETWEEN
BRAND AND SCHANZER

WASHINGTON, Nov. % (Associated
Press) Reports cabled from Washing
ton to foreign newspapers to the effect
that Premier BRAND of France and SEN
ator Schanzer. head Of the Italian dele
cation to the armament conference, had
engaged in a harsh debate" at the meet
ing of the conference committee on naval
armaments last Wednesday were char
acterized by Italian spokesman to- day as
utterly without foundation"
ut is worth while to let you know"
said the spokesman. that nothing OF
the kind happened. 1t is true that SEN
ator Schanzer pointed out the Italian
aim in coming to the conference and NJ.
BRAND repeated what he had said at
the plenary session on the question of
land arnaments for France There was
nothing harsh about the debate, both of
the speakers being animated by the most
cordial feeling. Senator Schanzer merely
reiterated his views as to what he
thought Italy should do with respect TO
land armament"
ITALY Is not afraid of any nation in
Europe" a delegation spokesman said.
She has no cause to fear France and
there Is no more reason for such fear
than on the part Of America Italy
wants to be big factor in Europe in
bringing about peace. In q word our
aim Is to be the mediator and we think
we have already accomplished something
along this line"

make painful impression upon French
opinion.
The Figaro expresses regret that there
appears to be an attempt to perpetuate
and aggravate Observation-Disclosures be-
tween France and England. but declares
that the soil of France covers too many
English dead for the declaration of Lord
Curzon to disturb the two peoples, whose
need to understand and have affection
for one another is so great.

agreement on the fundamental princi-
pies, to indorse which the conference
was called.
Hence it is that every official of
this government. while endeavoring to
maintain a sympathetic attitude
toward the representatives of both
countries, have adopted a policy Of
isolation. as far as verbal commit
ments are concerned.
They permit the charge, voiced in
French quarters. that Great Britain is
trying to break down the conference, to
pass without comment.
The statements of British partisans
that France deliberately set about de-
stroying the conference" also fails to
elicit comment that could be construed
as rejecting American concurrence.

Policy of Standing Pat.

In other words, representatives of
the American Government have
adopted a policy of standing pat" on
their own programme, and making 1t
extremely clear that they will continue
to cling to it.
Regarding the major naval ambitions
of the three leading Powers, Japan con-
tinues to remain the disturbing factor,
although the American delegates are
confident that the arbitrary attitude
adopted by the delegation from Japan
will soon be removed.
The naval advisers of the Toxic Gov
ernment are still insisting that it be
permitted to retain the superdread-
nought Mutsu, which has already been
completed. Great Britain and the
United States are standing shoulder to
shoulder against this proposition. Their
objection is not based on any tonnage
consideration, although the Mutsu is
1000 tons larger than any warship on
the programme Of either the British or
American Government.
The representatives of Great Brit
ain and the United States hold that
exemption Of the Mutsu from the
schedule accompanying the American
plan for limitation of naval armament
will perpetuate just this sort of thing
1t was designed to prevent by inviting
competition in types Of capital ships
in the future.
Japan Expected to .Acquiesce.
The Japanese delegates have been
% t,t
have inspired the United States to op-
pose the demands of the Japanese
naval experts. They express conf
dence that when the matter has been
fully debated at Toxic the Japanese
Government will acquiesce in the logic
of the programme and agree to scrap
the Mutsu. Up to tonight no state
nnent of the Japanese position in the
matter had been received.
The committee considering the sub
ject of naval armaments is apparently
conducting it's investigations under
tranquil and harmonious conditions.
While no official announcement re-
garding progress to date has been
made, some of the participants in the
sessions say it will be at least a week
before report will be ready for dis
cussion in the full conference.
Confirmation of this statement was
obtained from the officials of the con-
ference tonight who said there would
probably be no plenary session next
week. Secretary Hughes, chairman Of
the conference. declined to make any
statement as to future sessions be-
yond saying that one would be con-
vened as soon as any one of the COM
mittees is ready to report.
The New York herald., 1921-11-26

AS the French understand II, British
opposition TO the naval ambitions of
France and italy is largely based on
the ground that the combined sea
forces Of France and Italy would ex-
coed the maximum allowed Great
Britain provided by the Hughes plan
for the Limitation Of sea armaments.
Members of the American delega-
tion assert that Great Britain has not
founded It's opposition upon any such
grounds, but on considerations OF the
national defence requirements OF both
France and italy. In trying to
straighten this tangle the sea arma-
ments committee has encountered an
other knotty problem projected into
the discussion by Italy. whose repre-
scntatives have demanded equal naval
privileges with France. The contro-
versy between France and Italy. how
ever Is regarded as susceptible OF "iu-
dicious adjustment ard is not nearly
so disturbing as some other features
Of the problems confronting the con-
ference.
The storm precipitated by Lord
Curzon's statement Is certain TO exer-
else direct Influence upon the rela-
tions between the representatives of
Great Britain and France at the con-
ference. American spohesmen pri-
vatciy express the view that neither
country will permit It's national anil
nj ksities to stand in the way Of an

game would have been battle be-
tween pitchers had it not been for the
errors made at critical points OF the
game. The Burnham battery was
working IN perfect order. due to the
wonderful control of their new south
paw twirier who struck out of the
South Chicago heavy sluggers. Catch
er Fuehrmeyer was his old form al
lowing no stolen bases and making
two remarkable catches by picking
off high foul balls a few inches from
the backstop and also pegging to men
at home plate.
Tho victory Is also due to the sup
port given by the other players who
after the first inning In which two
changes were made in first basemen,
settled down and played baseball in
big league fashion.
Burnham is scheduled TO play Hege'
wisch Saturday. July %. at the Burn

will be the main event Of the Burn

hot game is anticipated in view OF
