Washington, ID. g.. Dec. 90.
The French Government to-day tor.
pedoed the American plan for lin1ita-
tion Of naval armaments, although
the effect Of its diplomatic markham
ship neither destroyed nor dis
mantled its most substantial fortiA-
cations.
The French refusal to accept the
American proposal fixing percent.
ages of auxiliary craft such as light
cruisers, destrcyers and undersea
boats did, however, eliminate such
ships from the naval program.
Further than this, the French re-
lection of the American plan pro-
voked Mr.. Balfour, the head OF IT,
British delegation, to give notice q
his French colleagues that the 3gt
ish Government reserved the f,tii
right TO build any amount Of ail
iary craft tonnage which it cons'a
cred necessary 10 deal with any air-
uation that might arise.

Mr.. Balfour's statement is taken to
mean that his Government, which
consistently has fought for abolition
OF the submarine as device OF de-
Tense. will spend any amount OF
money that the exigencies created by
the French position may justify.
While admitting keen disappoint.
ment over the refusal of the French
Government to consent to a modif-
cation of its claims for privileges In
the matter of auxiliary craft and
submarines, the American delegates
declare the results already accom-.

Retired Banker and Yachts
man Sworn In So Quietly
as immigration Commis-
sioner Few Know of 1t

Robert E. Tod, retired banker.
yacAtsman and former commodore of
the Atlantic Yacht Club, was formally
inaugurated as Commissioner of I'm
migration for the Port of New York
yesterday Frederick A. Wallis, re-
tiring commissioner, turned over the
Office to his successor.
With no pomp. or demonstration, the
new commissioner was sworn into
Office by a notary public, filing the
bond required. He Immediately took
charge of Ellis Island, where even the
500 employees were in ignorance that
he was on the job.
~ know that this is one of the most
important posts in the government SER
vice." said Commissioner Tod, "and
+ there must be great spirit of CO.
operation on the part of every man and
woman in the immigration service to
make it what it ought to be. I know
further that even when we may be
doing our best there is apt to be criti.
clsm. 1t isn't within the power of the
commissioner on Ellis Island nor his
associates in the work to make the SER
vice 80 perfect that there will be no
criticism. We haven't discretionary
powers, But we can all work together.
as l know we want to do, and we will
endeavor to rigidly enforce the i'm
migration law with as little hardship
to the immigrants and their resident
relatives and friends as possible.
"The first thing is to make sure that
we keep out Of the United States all
persons who come here with a mind
made up to attack our institutions and
overthrow our government. Only this
morning read in the newspapers that
one hundred anarchists have been try
ing for month to beat their way into
the United States through the chan
nels of immigration. I am afraid that
they will atempt to get in by the sea-
mems route. I shall give special at
tention to keeping watch upon the
searnen.
1--WE have new law to enforce-the
so-called restrictive 8 per cent law. No
body can doubt the good intentions OF
Congress in passing this law to prevent
q deluge OF immigration right after the
war. In principle it is good, particu-
larry at this time, when industry Is
tagging and thousands are out of work.
1t is best for the country, best for those
grants themselves that there shall be
no overcrowding at this time. But we
must be careful to relieve, Rs far as
possible, the hardships that restrictive
immigration may entail for the new
comers and their relatives already here.
"Viewed as q business man would see
it, immigration is putting into the
United States Treasury great sum Of
money which is not available for i'm
proving the service. The SO head tax
