BLANKET APPROVAL OF
ARMS PARLEY PACTS
OPPOSED IN FRANCE

Paris, oct. II (by the Asso-
ciated Press) Opposition to
blanket ratification of the Wash
ington naval treaties is certain to
flare up in the French chamber
of deputies when the question is
brought up probably next week.
When Premier poincare carries
out his intention of proposing rat
ification of the treaties by parlia-
ment both Georges Mandel, for
merry chief clerk in tho Clemens
ceau ministry and Lacour dc
Grandmaisou. will recommend
that notifications and reserya-
tions be inserted in the treaty.
Neither is opposed to ratifica-
tion, but both will insist on
amendments, especially to that
part of the naval treaty covering
capital ships as they desire that
France shall have eight units in
stead of six in this type Of float
ing armament.

The dirigible CO, the United states
army's best and largest "blimp
on a return trans continental fllSht
from Ross Field, California, to
Langley Field, Virginia, was purh-
ed today and seven persons were
injured, according to Major II. q,
Strauss commander of the Ill lateu
ship. The accident was due prl-
marily to the pulling out of the
fabric of the envelope during a
strong wind.
A board of inquiry was appointed
by Major Royce, commander OF
Brooks Field, to investigate the ac-
cident. The ship, which Major
strauss said was valued at possibly
$4,000. originally cost the govern
ment $4,000.
The seven injured are:

FORMATION Of A
Ne VI POLITICAL
PARTY FAVORED
Coalescence of the Demo-
Gratis and Republicans
Advocated by President
of Columbia University.

New York, Oct. Information
of a, cratic-republican party
which would represent the pre-
dominant liberalism Of our peo-
lple," was advocated by DR., Mich
olas Murray Butler, president of
Columbia University, in an address
tonight at the opening of the tenth
Iyear of the university's institute of
larts and sciences. He declared the
time had come to 'move toward
higher ground"
Coalescence OF the two old par-
ties, DR.. Butler said, would lead to
the organization of distinctly
radical party, thus bringing about
an "honest and sincere division of
political forces in this country"
Constructive liberals would be
brought face to face with destruc-
tive radicals under such re-organ-
ization, he said, and the question
whether the present federal form
of government established by the
constitution would be preserved or
discarded.
The American people must move
toward higher ground in interna-
tional relations, he asserted. and
suggested a division of the world
into three administrative areas. the
effect of which would be a.Mon-
roe doctrine for each area. The
first would inciuee Europe, Africa
and those parts of Asia Immediate
ly adjoining Europe and Africa, or
which for long time past have
been directly dependent on Europe.
The second area would be tho
American continent and the third
the Orient, including Japan, China
and Siam.

DENBY OPPOSES USE or
INEIlMMiBLE GAS

Washington. Oct. 17.--tby the
Associated Prcss) despite the
loss by fire today AT San Antonio
Of the semi-dirigible c., army air
service officials announced tonight
that ",rhe program for lighter than
air craft will go forward as origin
ALLY contemplated" In the three
other ships of the same type being
constructed for the service by an
Akron, Ohio, plant it was said,
however that netium gas would be
used instead of hydrogen. with
which the CO was inflated.
Opposition to the use Of the in
flammable gas for dirigibles Of the
navy was voiced by Secretary
DENLY. He expressed the hope that
il would be unnecessary to send
any of the big dirigibles up with
out helium gas" in the future. At
the same time, Secretary Weeks
was prompted by the destruction
of the CO to make inquiries as to
progress being made in army eX-
periments with helium for initiation
of lighter than air craft.
Army air service officers pointed
out that the CO could not have
made the flight from Langley
Field, Va. to Ross Field, Cali
fornia, which, they declared was
success at every stage of the
trip" had it been inflated with
helium. The craft was constructed
for use with hydrogen gas and
would have required alterations
amounting to an almost complete
change of designation before it
could have used the noninflam
mable gas.
The statement that the lighter
than air program would be con-
tinued was made by Lieutenant
Colonel j. II. Fechet, chief of the
training and war plans division OF
the army air service, who declared
that the C-2 proved its air worth
mess and reliability in the most
exacting conditions, while flying
over the desert, over mountains
and over water.
"That the unfortunate accident
occurred is to be regretted" he
added, "but it is obviously true
that the accident was not due to
any fault of design of this Amer
icsn-made airship,
This type of airship Known as
the c type" Colonel Fechet con-
tinued, has been adopted as STAN
dard in the army air service and
three ships of this kind are now
being constructed at Akron, OHIO.
All of the ships of this type on
order, however, are being con-
structed' for use with helium gas.
because of the fact that helium
has not the lifting power of hy-
drogen, it has been necessary to
enlarge the envelopes Of helium-
filled ships above that of hydro
gen-filled ships, to obtain the same
lirting capacity.
"This country is exceedingly
fortunate in having the only known
supply of helium gas in the world.
The gas is being extracted and
sorted by plants operated by the
bureau of mines from funds sup
piled in equal amounts by the war
and navy departments. it is not
deemed wise, because Of the linn
tied amount of helium available
and the high cost of the gas, to
use it until airships especially de-
signed are at hand. The first of
the new helIum-filled ships is to
be delivered about January l,
1925"

the army air service, received late
today the first official report on

Grand Rapids, Mich, OCT. t.,
What was termed Is months OF
business in government under the
Harding administration was re-
ceiyed here tonight in an address
by Secretary of Commerce Hoover
AS outstanding Accomplishments
he pointed to the Observation-Disclosures

ference. reductions in federal eN-
penditures and the public dept,
inproyement in agricultural ana

Of the arms conference, the COM
merce secretary said 1t had sue
ceeded in not only in reducing the
nayies of the world, but had set
tied the two outstanding dangers
in our eneration--naval rlValfy
with England and the rising con
flict with Japan
Hammerng for Economy
The second outstanding marx "
he attacked was the reduction ol
governmental expenditure and tax
es" continued Mr.. Hoover. "As a
result of hammering for economy
in every direction the expenditures
of the federal government have
been reduced from $5,5SS ,0O0,OOO
for the year ended Juno 80, 1921
10 an expenditure not exceeding
sS,77O,O0O, for the fiscal year
ending June 80, 1928, for which
appropriations have already been

'tIn the meantime, between March
3, 1921, and September 80, 1922, the
national debt has been reduced
from $24,045,000,00O to S22,Sl2,-
100000.
drhe funding commission has
been established TO handle the
foreign debt. Practically no inter-
est or payments on principal had
, been made by foreign governments
during the previous administrator.
Under this funding commission We
are rapidly reaching d settlement
with tho British government Wtiie'
comprises As per cent Of this debt,
by which their payments are TO
begin at once. This viii bring into
our treasury somewhere from
$175,000,0 to 100000 per
annum.
Liberty Bonds at Par.
Liberty bonds have been re-
stored to par with an increase of
IA per cent in value since March
4, 1921, or saving of over three
billion dollars to the eighteen mill
lion holders OF government secur-
tiles. Gradually the great national
debt is being converted into new
securities at lower rates of interest
and with steady saving to tax
payers.
"TaXes have been reduced by
over $S00,000.000 by repeal of the
nuisance taxes and other war taxes.
There remains much to be done,
but IS months is too short time

London, Oct. 17.-Whethcr Pre-
mier Lloyd George, whose admin
listration has long outlasted the
administration OF all the great
! statesmen concerned in the Yer
sailles treaty and the making OF
! peace, will fail as q secondary et-
feet Of Mustapha Kemal's victory
| in Anatolia, stlil hangs on the re-
suit OF Thur.day's meeting of the
lunionist members Of commons,
In all political quarters in Lon
| don today there was Il state OF
feverish activity. meetings ana con-
SITUATIONS occupying the entire
day. The prime minister himself
returned to town and besides con-
sulting with the members of his
cabinet, presided this evening over
a large meeting of liberal minis
ters, under secretaries. party whips
and others.
No report of the proceedings has
been issued. but it is supposed that
Mr. Lloyd George desired to ascer-
tain how far he could still depend
iupon support from the liberal wing
of the coalition in the coming de-
| lvelopments and in the event of the
conservative revolt against his
| leadership proving dangerous.
Opinion tonight seems to be
veering toward the belief that the
rebellious conservatives will at the
last moment recoil before the
prospect of breaking with Mr..
Lloyd George, who clearly still re-
tains the support OF Mr.. Chamber
| lain, and that the latter may secure
majority at the Thursday meet
| ing. 1t is understood that should
the Carlton gathering vote against
Mr.. Chamberlain. neither the Earl
of Balfour nor Mr., Bonar Law
would undertake to form a con-
servative ministry should Mr.
Lloyd George resign.
Mr.. Bonar Laws health is re-
stored. through his prolonged alb
stention from politics, but it Is said
that he lacks the physical endur-
ance which would justify him un-
dertaking the responsibilities OF
government. The Earl of Balfour
has been SO closely associated with
Mr.. Lloyd George in all phases of
the prime minister's administra-
ton that he probably would not be
inclined to take charge OF new
administration almost certain to
be short lived.
No Dissolution Arranged.
No dissolution of the council has
yet been arranged nor any formal
tiles even tentatively looking to
dissolution ana nothing definite is
likely to develop until the end of
the week.
If the Carlton meeting registers
a vote Of confidence In Mr.. Cham
berlain. it is reported that Mr..
Lloyd George will insist upon inn
posing his own strict terms as q
condition Of continuing to lead the
reunited coalition. If dissolution
is decided upon, there is already
evidence OF many changes in the
new parliament. Cecil Harms
worth, under secretary of the for
eisn office, is among those who
have announced their intention not
to seek reelection.

Tom was most generous and
