PARIS GOVERNMENT l HAS NOT APPROVED
 FRENCH NAVAL PLAN
(oontinued from Page one.)

anese 70 per cent ratio proposal con- templated determination of national security" needs to fix limitations as does the French naval expert 1o-ship suggestion. Japan later accepted fully the American view that existing naval strength. calculated in terms of mod ern capital ships plus proportionate allowances for ships under construc- tion, and on which money had been spent, was the only practical basis of approach to- limitation agreement. The "5-5-3" ratio plan represents that system of calculation.
 The American 175.000-ton plan for Trance and presumably Italy, also un- doubtedly represents the same sys- tenn of existing strength calculation There is not available, however, de- tailed analysis for ship scrapping in the French and Italian cases, since the tonnage allowance represents in each case more than either power has. Presumably 1t does not oontem- plate the scrapping of all pre-dread- naughts of both powers as of no mill tary value. That theory was applied to American, British and Japanese pre-dreadnaughts in tho three-power preliminary agreement
 French Experts
 The French naval experts have still another conference precedent, all though they may not know it, for presenting Ntheir 10-ship estimate of Frances naval needs on 8 basis of national security. When the general board of the American navy was first directed to formulate 8 naval ratio plan as between the three leading naval powers, it Is understood 8 wholly different proposition was evolved from that presented by secre- tary Hughes at the opening of the conference. Details have never been revealed as to this American naval expert proposal, but 1t Is understood to have proposed a 1o-1o-B ratio for Great Britain, the United States and Japan, and the retention of many more capital ships under construo- ton than Mir. Hughes finally pro posed to the conference.
 As 1t happens, whether designedly or not. the "6-5-3" American plan was an exact compromise between Amer ican and Japanese naval expert views resulting from the decision to make existing strength, built and building. the basis of agreement and to scrap all projected building programs with out consideration. The same rule now has been proposed to govern expan- sion of the three-power agreement into a five-power treaty for naval limitation, coupled with a naval holi- day of 10 years. What further nlodi- fications may be necessary before such an agreement is reached can de- velop only when the attitude of the French government is known.

how to drop
 a gentle hint
 to friend wife

Wait until after dinner. Then, as you sit calmly smoking your pipe and reading the paper, with the sharer of your joys and sor- rows peacefully alarming socks or making di- does for Christmas, remark quite casually to her, Have you noticed, Elizabeth, that my suit is getting all frayed at the edges7" She'll probably say, 'FYes, I've noticed it, John." Then wait bit before proceeding with the second act
 Begin this time by saying, T see Blach's keeps on advertising their $2S.50 suits-must be mighty unusual values or they wouldn't maka such feature of them.". Pause again for q few minutes.
 Now you get in the real work. Make tho wifa feel good by remarlzing, Well, Elizabeth, looks like married life and your cooking have certainly agreed with me all these years; be- fore we married a size 35 suit fitted me just right, while today wear size ,38.". (You see in that way she'll know what sixe to buy for you).
 Now conclude the drama. Accidentally lay this paper with the ad turned uppermost, so it's bound to attract her attention; then stroll out to fix up the furnace. And maybe, we say maybe you'll find new suit on the tree Christmas morning.
 It'll be good suit, too, if it's one of Blach's $28.50 specials.

ENGINEER OF FORD
 WILL CONFER WITH
 WEEKS TOMORROW
(Continued from Page one)

!
 Shoals are unlimited. Mir Edison has added conviction that the gov ernment should permit MT. Ford to acquire the property and opinion that the original offer of the Detroit capitalist should be considered sat- isfactory, whether or not indicates that Mir. Ford has decided to stand pat" on the terms of his original offer will not be determined prior to the Monday conference.
 Hopes for Revision
 The Secretary of War, since the inspection of Muscle Shoals by Ford and Edison, has assumed an un- wonted reticence. He has permit ted it to be understood, however, that he Is hopeful that Ford will revise his original offer to such ex- tent that he will be justified in transmitting 1t with his approval to Congress. At the same time, he has made it plain that the revised Ford offer must be so alluring to the government that Congress. without extraordinary persuaslon. will be willing to indorse it, ana enact necessary appropriation meas ures MT. Weeks, it is understood would hesitate and perhaps refuse to recommend u d COA6 SSC hostile to Muscle Shoals and hos tile to Ford, a proposition which, from a purely business standpoint. could not withstand the scrutiny or unfriendly statesmen.
 At any rate, the crisis in the sit- nation approaches. Following the conference Monday, Mir Weeks VIII make a detailed and unequivocal statement to the country.
 San Francisco, December 1f.-Ad- ditional information given out today by the construction company build ing the San Francisco city water sup nly project. which has submitted proposition to the government re garding the operation of the Muscle Shoals plant, contained an estimate that the Wilson dam and power project, partly completed during the war. would require expenditure or an additional $30,000,000 to fit them to produce electric energy.
 The proposal contains an agree ment to build also what is known as Dam No. 8, with proper power plants. should the government find this feasible.
 The proponents of the plan also agree to place the nitrate plants, the major reason for the adoption of the Muscle Shoals project as war time measure, in operation whenever rep of the government and the builders find these can be opS erated at profit in competition with natural nitrate deposits. The build CTS offer to maintain these plants in condition for immediate use in any national emergency. Frank G. Hitch cock. vice president of the company, Is on his way to Washington to con- fer with government officials De- cember 26 on the proposal.

 2,40o,O00 cubic feet Volume, almost as large as the recently lost ZR-2 and little larger than the navy zR-1. now being built at the naval aircraft fac tory at Philadelphia. The army semi-rigid airship, the Roma, which Is scheduled to fly to Washington from Langley Field, Va, within the next few days, Is just half the size in volume of the German airship now contemplated.
 The German L-T0 class of airship measured TAB feet in length, 4S feet longer than the British ZR-2, but having the standard German diameter of 7S.4 feet. Their total useful load is over SS,000 pounds, or A tons. equivalent to 59 per cent of the total weight of these ships The ships carried a crew of 30 men each.
 These rigid airships were driven by seven Mayback engines of 290 horse power each, arranged In six power cars suspended below the belly of the ship, two being placed in the after car. giving a total horsepower of 2,030 and developing a speed of over so miles an hour.
 The L-71, which was delivered to England after Nthe war, is said to have developed a speed of S2 miles an hour and to have been capable of making a single flight of 11.000 miles. The L-7o was shot down in the war and the L-72 was delivered to France.

gagged on a western mat on the
 day of the explosion.
 MT. Burns reiterated that there was no question that in Iindenfeld's arrest the department of justice has a solution of the explosion.
 "We have known It all along" he said.
 He regretted, he declared. that the Warsaw police had permitted Lin- denfeld's capture to become known at this time. as 1t had been the in- tention to withhold the information so that the investigation might be unhampered.
 It was through Lindenfeld, MT. Burns said, that the Burns agency learned prior to the Wall street eA- plosion that something was going to happen. but he added that the exact location could not be determined. He refused to state whether suspects were in this country, asserting that the number of persons involved might bel anywhere from 12 to 300.
 Burns added that his agency knew some relationship existed between the perpetrators of the Wall street plot and those who sent bombs through the mails to several promi- nent men in various cities some months earlier.

 FURTHER STATEMENT

Warsaw, December 17.-F'urthe CT statements relative to the Wan street bomb explosion have been made by Wolfe Lindenfeld, arrested by the police yesterday on suspicion of hav- ing been implicated In the explosion, who subsequently, made full confess sion. giving the names of the ring leaders and other information. These statements are being translated into English.
 According to Sylvester Cosgrove of the American department of justice, at whose request the. arrest was made, Lindenfeld has persistently avoided questions concerning his whereabouts on the day of the ex- plosion. He admits however, he was in Manhattan. and to the direct ques- tion. Where were you at the time of the explosion?" he made the reply, uptown"
 The suspect, the. American agen. asserts, has not told-all regarding his New York connections, nor exactly how he came into possession of the full details prior to the explosion. His movements since he left New York have been fully traced, except ing for one month, on which he is silent.
 One admission made by Lindenfeld Is that in August he went to Moscow spending six weeks there.
