u. S. GIVES
FIGURES ON
naval CUT
Presents Detailed Answers
to British and Jap
Questions.

Washington, Nov. 2S-(By the
Associated Press.)-America ma
val experts presented to the jap
anese and British officers today de-
tailed answers to questions pre-
sented last week as to the Ameri-
can naval reduction program. The
full membership of the technical
commission of the arms confer
ence was not in, session.
The extensive examination of fig
ureS of all three powers as to eX-
isting naval strength of each coun-
try has not resulted in any change
of the original figures in Secre
tary Hughes proposal. 1t was saiC
authoritatively today that no mis-
takes in calculation had been re
vealed during the discussion by the
experts.
Points Not Revealed.
The data submitted today by the
American group had to do. it was
understood, with questions asked
by the Japanese as to the exact
meaning of certain paragraphs OF
the American reduction plan. The
Speclfc nature OF the points III
volved was not revealed 1t is
known, however, that the Ameri-
can experts feel that they have
been able to show that there ex-
lists no reason to change any of
the tonnage estimates for the three
powers on which the American
plan was based and it is assumed
that during the week, possibly in a
matter of hours. the naval reduC-
ton problem will be formally re-
turned TO the conference foI
action.
Firm for ~5-5-3''.
Assurances that the American
calculation as TO existing japanese
naval strength has been found tC
be accurate in the American view
lends additional weight to the re
peated declaration that the Ameri-
can delegates will stand firmly for
the "5-5-3" ratio proposed for linn
itation of naval construction at the
end OF the 10-year holiday period
1t would also indicate the imme-
diate probability that the Ameri-
can deIeagtes would agree to re-
tention by Japan of the battIeship
Mutsu. although no definite state
ment in this is regard has been
considered by the American dele
cation.

throwing the dancers into panic.
Nicholas Citro shot Anthony Du-

and father of the girl, when Du-

FATTY'TELLSST ON WITNESS STAND
Harding Does Not Plan Ne,U
League of Nations; Sequel
To Hague Meetings Is Idea

powers for Mr. Harding's idea is
that the conference shall make its
own rules when it meets, shall
frame its own program and take
action as individual sovereign ma
tons and not as a supergovern-
ment.
Wants Standing Committee.
The president feels that the prin-
cipal allied and associated powers
constitute a nucleus. Instead of
leaving the call of the conference
TO one executive or one govern
ment, a standing committee might
be appointed consisting of repre-
sentatlves of several countries to
whom a petition for an interna-
t:onal conference could be made.
For the moment the president feels
that meeting every year would
be a good idea but some provision
would have to be made, of course,
for the calling of a conference
when emergencies developed and
it is for that reason a standing
committee has Eeen urged by some
OF the counseliOrs who have laid
the matter before Mr.. Harding.
1t is more than a coincidence
perhaps that the first Hague con
ference was called for the very
purpose of linliung armaments but
Germany was unwilling to agree 70
a reduction or limitation. The first
Hague conference of 1899 was
more or less experimental, only
2G governments being represented.
The second conference in 1907
found A states represented, and
definite rules OF international law
were drawn up which unfortunate
l. were disregarded by many of
those powers when the war of 1914
broke out
No Rival to League.
Far from attempting to create 4
rival of the League of Nations. Mr.
Harding's idea is that the latter
body is essentially an institution
70: the enforcement of the treaty
OF Versailles and as such has a
peculiarly valuable function which
affects the peace of Europe and
Indirectly the peace of the world.
But since the Versailles league is
closely interviewer with penalties

DES MONIES TO
VOTE ON STREET
CAR FRANCHISE
Ballots VIII Decide
Fate of Much-Dis-
cussed Ordinance.

Des Moines, Iowa, Nov. 2S-tBy
the Associated Press Voters of
Des Moines went to the polls today
TO approve or reject the much-dis-
cussed street car franchise ordi-
nance passed by the city council.
Early indications are that there
will be heavy vote.
The polls opened at Z a. m and
will close at o'clock tonight.
On Saturday Judge James c.
Hume of district court granted a
temporary injunction against the
holding of the election, on the
ground that the procedure of the
city council in passing the ordi-
nance was illegal and that the
franchise itself was irregular. A
motion for a writ of supersedeas
was filed Immediately in the su-
preme court and hearing was held
on Saturday afternoon.
Sunday the judges announced
that they would nuIlify the injunc-
ton so far as the holding of the
election is concerned, but allowing
the findings of Judge Hume to
stand in regard to the legality of
the franchise pending a hearing of
the case on its merits at the next
term of court.
The supreme court ruling is in
terpreted by attorneys for both the
opponents and friends of the fran
chise to mean that the city will
not be allowed to put into effect
any of the provisions of the pro-
posed measure pending final decis-
ion by the higher court. This
would assure Des Moines of street
car service for at least several
months, no matter which way the
election goes.
If the higher court aff1rms the de-
cision of the district court today's
election will go for naught.
