mont Avenue, Orange. N. j., took the
family automobile yesterday afternoon
and went to East Orange shopping

in Newark in an open trolley car, recog-
nized the automobile standing at the
curb in front Of store in Central
Avenue and got OF to 60 home with his
wife.
Discovering that she had neglected
to lock the car, however, he thought
it would be better to give her an OBJ
ject lesson. So he turned tho ear
around and parked it on the opposite
side Of the street, catching the next
trolley car to his home.
Mrs. Schindel, unable to find the car
when she came out Of the store. re-
ported II to the police as stolen. Cities
and villages for miles around were
warned to be on the lookout for the
car. About 10 O'Clock last night Mr..

Barthou Asserts Soviet
Would Use Opportunity
to Spread Propaganda

GENOA, May 13 (By The Asso-
ciated Press) France has appealed
to the United States to participate
IN the proposed international COM
mission to investigate the Russian
situation. The American Ambassa-
dor, Richard Washburn Child, in
formed The Associated Press to-
night that such proposal had been
submitted to him by the French dele
cation.
The Ambassador understood that
the French proposal suggests that
the United States, if the invitation
is accepted, would have a dominant
voice in the action Of the commission,
but would not be bound by her ac-
ceptance to any decisions of the COM
mission which she did not approve.
If the United States accepts,
France would agree to the Russians
being represented in the commission.
The Havas correspondent here say.
that the conference has practically
terminated with the understanding that
commission of experts will be ap
pointed later by the various govern
ments to consider Russian affairs.
However. there are to be fuller dis
cussions on Sunday among the chiefs
of the delegations, with a meeting of
the subcommission at 1880 o'clock
Monday morning.
Lloyd George. according to this cor
respondent, said tonight that if a
1ull agreement was reached regarding
the manner in which the comsniseio''
of experts should function. he would
not insist on the other points of his
program and that the conference
would end with full session on
Tuesday.
