Washington, Dec. 1s (by the As
sociated Press Proposals made
by the French delegation Thursday
to the naval committee of the arm
ament conference included a de-
finite schedule of construction
which contemplated the replace
ment by 1941 of the present French
battle fleet by ten new ships to-
falling $4,000 tons.
The proposals and the accom-
schedule of planned con-
were presented with the
full authority Of the French gov
ernment, it was learned on best au-
thority tonight, and were not, as
has been indicated in some quart
ers, merely "a tentative depart
mental plan"
Authoritative French opinion as
obtained tonight was that the plan
and its resulting ratio for France
was entirely reasonable. 1t was
made plain that there was no dis
position to modify the proposals in
the vital features, or to accept the
$4,000 ton ratio proposed by the
American delegation.
The first new ship would be aid
down in 1925, under the French
plan submitted to the COMMITTEES
and each year the keel of an addi-
donal ship would be laid to gradu-
ally replace and augment the pres
ent capital ship tonnage Of France
which, in the opinion of her gov
is antiquated in design
and Inadequate to properly protect
the nations interests.
The naval experts OF the French
estimated that the last of
the new ships would be ready for
service in 1871, or not before ten
years after the period of the naval
holiday contemplated in the limita-
tion agreement now before the con-
ference.

FIRST CHARGE
IS DISMISSED
Complaint Against L. Manch-
bach Arrested in State Ex-
else Law Dismissed.
TAKE FEDERAL ACTION
Only One Arrest Made as New
State Liquor Enforcement
Law Goes Into Effect.

The complaint against Louis
Manchbach. the bartender in the es-
tablishment of Morris Manchback at
SIS Smith street, on Saturday after
noon for violating the state excise
law, was this morning dismissed as
far as the local recorder is concern
ed, in accordance with section II
of chapter 103 of the laws of 1921,
but Chief Niels j. Tonnesen has
taken the matter up with the federal
authorities at Newark, and this case
will be handled at that end. This
was the only arrest by the police in
liquor cases, for violations covered
by the new state law which went
into effect Saturday.
According to section II. chapter
103 of the laws of 1921, the magis-
trate referred to in this act. is the
judge of the court of common
pleas. who is empowered to issue
search warrants, and give defendants
a hearing. The supreme court JUS
tice is empowered to take the place
of the common pleas judge in hand
ling these cases. The recorder has
no power in cases of this character.
This will mean that when an Of
ficer requires a search warrant, it
VIII Dc HeCtSSdiy " StCuIc Sduit
from Judge Peter f. DAILY, and when
an arrest is made, to take the de-
fendant to New Brunswick imme-
diately. or to hold the party until
it is convenient to do so. The law
also calls for the giving of a copy
of the search warrant to the party
whose place is raided. and also to
give a receipt for any goods taken.
This was not complied with in raid
ing Manchbach's place.
The law states that the violation
of the state excise law is not a mis-
demeanor, which does away with the
trial by jury, the judge of common
pleas being enabled to try defend
ants without a jury on a disorder
ly act charge.
Before the defendant was brought
before Recorder Pickersgill this
morning. information from the pros
ecutor's Office was to the effect that
cases oftthis kind cannot be handled
by anyone but a judge in common
pleas court, or a supreme court JUS
tice. David Wilentz appeared for the
defendant and asked for dismissal of
the complaint on various grounds.
Manchbach after his arrest on
Saturday was released in $500 bail
pending a hearing this morning. All
of the patrolmen covered the saloons
on their beats, over Saturday and
Sunday. and two other search war
rants were issued. but no arrests
made.

All Employees Of Master
Builders Assn Quit;
Marine Workers Strike
Many Union Men Idle Here
Today as Result of Bakers
and Carpenters Strike.
DEMANDS ARE REFUSED
Open Shop Conditions at Two
Places biggest Strike at
Barber Co. and SimmenS.

A considerable number of union
men are idle in this city today be-
cause of two strikes brought about
by the refusal of the employers 10
agree to new wage scale scheduled
to go into effect today for continu
ance in force for the new twelvo
months. In this wage scale the men
demand that the bosses continue to
pay the rate of wages of last year.
This the bosses refuse to do and de-
mand that lower wage scale be
agreed upon. One of the unions
which is not working is the build
ing trades council. whose men are
employed by the master builders,
members of the Building Trades AS
sociation, and the other the union
bakers.
The unions could not see the re-
duction, and decided to take the mat.
ter to the public, so a p,.sic meet
ing will be held tonight u the high
school auditorium at 8 o'clock, at
which time several prominent union
speakers will be present to discuss
the reduction and lay the facts be-
fore the public. In the meantime,
all union workers employed by the
master builders are idle.
FOR the past several weeks af-
fairs between the Building Trades
Council and the master builders
have been anything but satisfactory
The master builders Informed the
unions that they would not continue
to pay the wage scale of 1920 and
demand that when the new wage
scale was submitted for 1921, it
should show reduction of about 81 a
Ia IF p1 nf do hi he
unions refused to do, and stated in
various conferences held by the two
organizations that the living costs
did not warrant such a reduction at
the present time. The builders,
however, were just as strong as
the unions in their demands that
the reduction take place in order to
stimulate building.
At the Building Trades Council in
Maple street today, it was reported
that only one-sixth of the 1900 un-'
ion workers members of that Or
ganization were idle today because
of the lock out. Among the jobs on
which work has been stopped are:
The new city stables. the men en-
pioved by lowering &, Garragus of
New York city. builders of some of
the buildings at the new plant of
the Barber Asphalt Company, ana
the men employed on Nathan We
deem building now in course of erec-
tion in State street. Some other
work has also ceased, but nothing of
any great importance. The facto-
ries are still paying the 1920
scale of wages. as are several con-
tractors who are not members of
the Building Trades Association.
iS
Just what the lockout will amount
to could not be learned today. 1t
is pointed out that the unions in
other cities have been successful in
having the 1920 scale readopted for
1921 and the general opinion among
the union workers seems to be that
the master builders here will agree
to it before long. 1t is expected that
some development in the deadlock
will take place following the public

PEACE: ME- As!||RE:
NOW IN HOUSE
Knox Resolution, Passed by
Senate Saturday by Vote of
1929, Now in Committee

WASHINGTON, May 2.-The
Knox resolution declaring peace
with Germany and Austria passed in
the senate Saturday by a vote of 29
to AZ, was sent to the House today.
1t is not expected to be called for a
week or more, as it first goes to the
foreign affairs committee, where eff
forts will likely be made to amend
it, so rs to declare peace without
repeating the war resolution.
The House forces will continue
discussion on the army appropria-
ton bill expected to be adopted to-
morrow and then take up the bud
get bill. In the senate the emer-
gency tariff and immigration bills
have the right of way. A lengthy
debate on the first named is antici-

Expect Issuance of Orders in
Paris Today for Mobiliza-
ton of the Class of 1919.
MAY GO TO RUHR VALLEY
Negroes Not Expected to Be
Included in New Forces.
Some May Be Exempted.

PARIS, May 2.-Orders for the
mobilization of the class of 1919
which will take part in the possible
occupation of the Ruhr district were
expected to be issued today. The
orders will be sent to individuals
who will be instructed to report for
duty and the entire class will not
be called as formerly. This was
made possible by the passage of the
new mobilization act.
Negroes are not expected to be in
cluded in the forces. 1t is possible
that the governments orders will
exempt student soldiers living in
devastated regions and those who
served in the colors outside OF
French territory.
The understanding in official cir
cles is that nothing can nowprevent
completion of the French Nan OF
mobilization of the necessary oces''-'
patton which can be prevented only
by Germany giving ample guarantees
that she will pay according to decis.
tons OF the reparation commission.
Such acceptance and an order mobile
izing 10000 of the class of 1918
is expected al any moment.
The French government despite
the lack of final action by the su-
preme council in London on the re-
parations issue is proceeding with
the preliminaries necessary to occu-
patton of Ruhr valley. A brigade OF
cavalry was in training at Meaux to
join detachment of infantry on the
way from Lyons in addition to artil-
lery from Vincennes and other gar
risons no won the move.
A HaVas dispatch from London
reporting the meeting of the council
of foreign ministers says the inter-
val to be allowed Germany for ac-
Ccpting the allied ultimatum will be
twelve days. The Ruhr valley will
be occupied Immediately afterwards
if Germany fails to accept. according
to this source. The notice to Ger
many of the twelve days delay is to
be given by the reparations COM
mission it is added.

The sporting goods store of Fish

o'clock last night and 8 o'clock this
morning, and goods valued at about
$4,000 are reported missing by the
owners. This establishment was pre-
viously robbed about three times
over a year ago. and the party re-
sponsible for the theft is serving a
term in the Railway reformatory.
Entrance to the store was gained
by breaking a pane of glass in the
skylight. and spreading the iron bars
on a level with the ceiling of the
store. Once these bars were spread
. the thief squeezed his way through
and made his way to the floor of
1the store by climbing down big
cabinet directly under the skylight.
The robber then took his pick of the
merchandise on the show cases, and

The loot taken consisted of Came

cash also was taken, according to
the owners. Judging from the
amount of merchandise taken, and
the difficulty encountered by the rob-
