U. S. Awaiting Action
Of Powers on Treaties
tContinued from Pare Ome.)

that of the United States and Great
Britain. 1t has been recognized in
Japan that there was no real hurry
about ratification and Japanese Off
cials have considered it wise to wait
until all the people could understand
the exact treaty provisions. With
the people generally satisfied. the
japanese parliament is said to be
ready now and ratification will be
almost immediate.
As soon as Japan ratihes the
treaties, in the opinion of Washing
ton officials, all eyes will be turned
toward Europe, waiting for Great
Britain, France and Italy to act. 1t
is doubtful if these three nations will
want to be in a position of holding
up the naval limitation program and
the fulhllment of their obligations
under the other treaties.
One troublesome factor, however,
so far as the European nations are
concerned, is said to be the relation
ship between Russia and Germany,
which easily might become
menace to Great Britain and
France. This difficulty had not ap-
peared when the delegates left
Washington and officials here be-
lieve it has been one Of the elements
in the delay, particularly with Great
Britain and France.
Claim France Less Eager.
In France officials have been say
ing that the delay is not unusual,
that there have been so many other
things to be considered, including
the Genoa conference. that they
have been unable to get to the CON
sideration of the Washington agree
ments. Yet it is felt here that there
is something greater than that back
Of the delay.
France, it is reported unoficially,
is less eager to, ratify the navy
treaty than either Great Britain or
Italy. The navy treaty has not
been so popular in France as in the
other two countries, as was evident
even during the Washington nego-
tiations when the French ratio was
objected to by French delegates.
Unofficial reports now being circu-
lated in Washington 20 so far as to
say that France has no intention OF
ratifying the navy treaty any time.
Such a delay might, it is recog-
nized, influence the action OF Great
Britain, although efforts will Be
made to have Great Britain and
Italy take the lead in ratification il
necessary, to induce France to
adopt a less militaristic attitude.
The Washington government, Of
course, will not fail to use any
proper influence to obtain early rat
ification.
In view Of the delays, attention
has been directed to the fact that in
none of the treaties is there a time
limit for ratification. The nations
can delay for an indefinite period
This raises diplomatic question as
to how long anybody would Be
bound while waiting for the others

All OF these men are charged with de-

sressive leader like Charles w.
Bryan should enter the race and
Hitchcock should support him.

is back in the progressive democrat-

with Hitchcock.
Candidates Are Wet.
The democrats are pointing to the
scarcity of anything except wet
democrats running for office SO far.
There is hardly one time-tried demo-
crat in the race for a state office
and the reason assigned for this fact
is the refusal OF Hitchcock SO far to
SO to bat for real progressive dem
ocrat.
They refer to the candidacy Of
Hanley in the second district for
congress, Morehead in the first dis
trict, Shallenbcrger in the fifth dis
trict and O'Gara in the third district !
as proof that the only democrats to
seek major offices are we'll known
wets so badly needed in congress by |

are wondering if these men will be
supported by Hitchcock and if they
will aid in the wet plan to tie up

MADALYNNE OBENCHAiN IS
FREED AT Los ANGELES
judge Holds Burch for Observation
as to Sanity Following Petition by
His Attorney.

Los Angeles, Cal.-Mrs. Madalynne
Conner Obenchain and Arthur c..
Burch, indicted more than a year ago
for the murder Of J.. Bolton Kennedy,
were released.
Burch, however, was Immediately
placed under arrest on an insanity
warrant issued by Judge John w.
Sherk, as the result Of an affidavit
made by Burch's chief counsel, Paul
w. Schenck. Madalynne was free to
go wherever she wished.
District Attorney Thomas Lee Wool
wine moved for the dismissal of the
charges against Burch and Mrs. Oben-
chain following a conference with the
Judge and Attorney Schenk. He gave
as his reason the fact that five juries
had tried the issues in the case, and
had been unable to reach a verdict.
He felt it vas fruitless to try the
issues again.
Schenck wanted Woolwine to say
there was insufficient evidence to con
vict, but Woolwine would not admit
that.
When the judge had ordered both
defendants discharged from custody
Schenck moved that his client be
arrested and tried for hts sanity.
81 am convinced that Burch is in
sane he said, land have been cor
WINGED of it ever since | talked TO him
first, more than a year ago. | feel it is
nothing less than my duty to ask that
he be tried by a jury who can de-
termine whether he is sane or insane.
Here is my affidavit to the effect that
| believe him to be afflicted with dc
ment!a praecox in a p~aranoidal form,
and that l consider it dangerous to let
him be at large"
Thus ended the case that has
caused eight months of trials-actual
time, the impaneling of six juries,
comprising rs regular and substitute
jurors. 1t should be explained that in
/ Madalynne's second trial a jury Of IL
was dismissed on charges that invest
had tried to tamper with the panel
and which q cost the county at least
$4,000, this at a conservative esti-
mate.
Kennedy was shot to death on the
steps of his cabin in Beverly Glen on
the night of August 5, 1921. NADIA
lynne, who was at one time engaged
to him, was near by when the shot
was fired. Burch, who came to Los
Angeles from Evanston, to spend a
vacation here, was arrested in Las
Vegas, New. 1t was charged that he
had killed Kennedy because he, Burch,
was jealous. 1t was charged, too, that
he and Madalynne conspired in the
murder. Kennedy had refused to
marry M%adalynne, the prosecution de-
clared, and she wanted revenge.
