Declare French Delegates

WASHINGTON, Dec. 2S.-(By The
Associated Press) - Discussing the
conclusion of consideration of the SUBJ
marine tonnage question by the Wash
ington conference, French delegation
spokesman tonight said their govern

Members of the delegation smiled at
suggestions Of A. J. Balfour, of Great
Britain, in the naval comittee, which
they interpreted as attributing to
France a desire to make a sea war on
England. Deprecating this, they
pointed to the relative size of the two
fleets and declared there was a great
difference between being unarmd and
being moderately armed"

Diplomatic Offices in u. S. to

NEW YORK, Dec. 2S.-(By the AS
sociated Press) - Germany's diplo-
matte and consular forces today press
ed their preparations for hanging out
their flag again in Washington, New
York and other cities.
The steamer Nieuw Amsterdam ar
rived with Carl Lang, charge of the
German embassy, and consular agents

The new German consulate here

already has arrived.
Among those who arrived with
Herr Lang-who, on appointment of
a German ambassador will become
German consul general at New York
was Armand Valette, vice consul
at San Francisco. Herr Lang, who
has been "a years in the German dip

''At present. Germany cannot pay.
We must devise new ways"
Expanding on conditions at home,
he continued:
Economic conditions are much

good conditions. If they leave us the
means to do things, We will certainly

1T is very hard for the people to

FRANCE UPSETS
BRITISH PLANS
To LIMIT NAVY
English Delegates Say More
Craft Will Be Needed to
Combat Submarines
DEPLORE FRENCH VIEW
Conference Regarded Success
in Spite of Developments
in Session Yesterday

WASHINGTON, Dec. 2S.-(By The
pressed by British delegates tonight
over developments in today's meeting
of the conference naval committee,
and it was said time would be requir-
ed to study the proposition to limit ac-
tivities of submarines as we'll as to
analyze possible results of the French
refusal to limit tonnage of submarines.
1T is sad" a British spokesman
said, at is deplorable that any nation
should have taken such position as
we have seen taken. There can be no
limitation now on the number of craft
that we must build for anti-submarine
purposes"
Cannot Trust France
1t was fortunate for Great Britain,
he continued, II there was to be un-
limited submarine construction, that
she possessed great fleet of trawlers
and other steel fishing craft which
could be used for anti-submarine pur-
poses, so that she would not have to
build to the same extent as other
nations.
'.fs declared that the British were
in hearty sympathy with the resolu-
tion proposed by Root regarding use
of submarines but he said plan to
restrict submarine attacks to naval
vessels would have no effect on Great
Britain. She would build anti-sub-
marine craft, he said, as no nation
could be trusted to abide by such
rules when it's back was against the
wall The British case would be fully
set forth at the next plenary session,
he added.
Conference Not Failure
Although the conference had failed
to stop expenditures for submarine
fleets, he continued, it would be in er-
ror to regard the conference as fail
ure. 1t was an extraordinary thing
he contended, to have reached an
agreement on capital ships.
1t was further said by the spoke
men that the failure to fix limit TN
submarines made it difficult to fix a
limit on the size and character OK aux

quarters that the approaching conver-
sations of M. BRAND and Lloyd George
at Cannes, on reparations and associ-
ated economic subjects, will touch
Washington conference questions. The
question of submarines and other light
tonnage vessels is believed by the
French to go far deeper than current
financial problems and OF having in 1t
something fundamental and tradition
al reaching back into the long rivalry
which has existed more or less since
1858 between Great Britain n d
France.
The policy of Great Britain is now
said by French spokesmen to look
toward the subordination of France,
something which Frenchmen will not
consent to, with their eyes open, al
though unseeing American opinion
may be against them"

Dies as Result of Stroke
Suffered Christmas Eve
Charles r. PhiIbrook, for many
years superintendent of Warren

best known educators in the
southwest, died in the. Copper
Queen hospital at 1850 this
morning.

morning.
Death came as the result of stroke
of paralysis suffered by Mr.. Philbrook
on Christmas Eve just as he had fin
ished assisting members of the miners
and Legion Christmas tree committee
in distributing presents to hundreds
of local children. At that time at was
thought that Mr.. Philbrook had mere,
ly tainted from over-exertion, as he
had worked long hours for several
days previous. He was taken to a
nearby drug store and, after a hurried
examination, was removed to the hos
pital.
Almost physically helpless from the
stroke, Mr.. Philbrook nevertheless
fought bravely against the ailment
Mrs. Philbrook and cousin, Miss Eva
Philbrook, were at hrs bedside when
death came this morning. Funeral ar
rangements have not as yet been de
cided upon. The local Masonic lodge
will probably have charge of the ser
vices.
BY the death of Mr.. Philbrook Ari
zona lost one of its foremost educa
tors and active residents, and Bisbet
will mourn the loss Of the man through
whose untiring efforts local schools
were developed to stage where the!
ranked second to none in the south
west. 1t was through Mr.. Philbrook'
efforts and under his direction tha
many vocational studies were made
part of the curriculum of Warren Dis
trict schools.
Although he devoted long hours t
school work, Mr.. Philbrook alway
found time to join in any move 70

undertaking, he was always one o
the most energetic and sincer'
workers.
