MOVE BY JAPS
Press Reports Indicate Toxic
Has Accepted Four Power
Treaty Plan

WASHINGTON, Dec. 3 (By The
Associated Press) The rapidly
moving arms conference had reached
point of comparative pause today
with the Far Eastern committee in
adjournment until tomorrow and the
next important step in negotiations
on naval ratio and proposed four
power treaty apparently waiting on
a definite statement of the attitude
of the Japanese government Mean
while the japanese and Chinese dele
cations were scheduled to hold ses-
sions of separate conferences on the
Shantung question.
AS a major feature in the prospec-
tive agreement the question of limit
alton of fortification and naval bases
in the Pacific islands had been
brought into prominence for the first
time today. Although the subject
has not advanced TO the stage of
formal exchanges. the American del
egates have gwen assurances TO the
Japanese that it would be considered
as a natural collorary of the naval
reduction plan and indication points
to an ultimate agreement on the
principle of abandoning further de-
velopment of the island defenses.
Press reports that the japanese
government had decided to accept
the four-power treaty plan for pre-
serving peace in the Pacific condi-
tional on agreement of the naval ra-
ito and further application of the
American four points. TO China were
accepted here as further emphasiz-
ing the inter-dependence of the ne
gotiations on those problems.

HAIR PULLING
CHARGE MADE
Disagreement Between Two
Women Over Actions of
Children Causes Warrant

Katie Santuck OF 72S State street,
appeared at the police court yes
terday morning and swore out q
warrant Tor the arrest of Katie I've
nall, who lives at the same address.
The complaint was assault and
battery and Mrs. Santuck alleged
that Mrs Ivenall had pulled out a
quantity of her hair in the course
of a disagreement over actions of
their children. In proof of that
statement Mrs. Santuck showed a
parcel containing thick bunch OF
hair and also o bare spot upon her
scalp. Recorder Pickersgill issued
the warrant.
In court this morning both women
appeared with their children and
evidently felt inclined to continue
the argument. The recorder put a
stop TO this, however. and heard
tho case in question. The defendant
then produced bag of hair which
she said Mrs. Santuck had extracted
from her head. In view of the fact
that honors seemed to be even in
the fracas. the court fined each
weman SIS, plaintiff as well as de-
fendant.
