Seventh Week; End

Republican A. p. Leased WIre1


Los ANGELES. Jan. 6.-The sew
enth week of the trial of Arthur G.
Burch for the alleged murder of j.
Bolton Kennedy ended late today
with taking of testimony still in
progress. Judge Sidney N. Reeve, in
announcing adjournment until Mon
day, told the jurors to be prepared
for night sessions next week.
DIR. Louis J. Webber, alienist. called
by the prosecution in rebuttal, was
under cross examination during the
entire afternoon session and will take
the stand again Monday.
DIR. Webber testified to a belief
that Burch was Stimulating insanity"
and declared he found no indication
of mental arrangement in the de-
fendant.
Burch this afternoon denied a re-
port made by a deputy sheriff that
he had tried to jump over a railing
from the second to the first floor of
the county Jail while on his way to
the court room. The deputy said he
pulled Burch back when he was half
way over the railing.
THE truth of the matter was that
I stumbled" the prisoner said, "as /
did so / caught the deputy about the
neck and l was at no time in danger
of falling over the railing. If want
ed to commit suicide, as has been in
timated, there are plenty of other

There was also hurled at the New
berry supporters the prediction by
Senator Heflin, Democrat of Alaba-
ma, that "the American people will
lash out of the senate chamber every
man who casts vote for Newberry."

Although the consent agreement
provides that the Newberry question
shall be considered to the exclusion

his speech to attack the federal re-
serve board for not having cut down
expenditures by the reserve banks in
the construction of new banking
homes. He spoke particularly of
the New York bank and concluded
that phase of his discussion by the
expression of his belief that the New
York bank was hooked up with Wall
street so closely that he would not
be surprised if some of it's officers
favor the seating of Newberry."
Attack Newberry Silence
As heretofore, the fight of the
Democrats was directed chiefly at
the claims advanced that Mr.. New

tivities OF his primary campaign

CANNES, Jan. 6.-Definite action
looking to the rehabilitation of Eu-
rope from an economic standpoint
was taken at the first session of the
allied supreme council here today
when unanimous approval was given
for the calling of an international fl
nancial and economic conference in
which Germany and Russia are to
have a part. Some time during the
first two weeks of March has been
set for the momentous gathering, and
Genoa. Italy, has been designated as
the place where IL shall be held.
An invitation to the United States
to participate has been extended
through the American ambassador TO
Great Britain. George Harvey, who is
here as official observer for his gov
ernment.
Russia's participation in the Genoa
conference is conditional upon ac-
ceptance of a number of conditions,
namely, that she cease bolshevilS
propaganda abroad; that she under
take not to attack her neighbors and
that she recognize all the honorable
obligations entered into by preced-
ing Russian governments.
Premier Lloyd George of Great
Britain took the most prominent part
in the deliberations. Describing the
present meeting of the supreme
council as the most important since
the armistice, he declared that that
the public opinion Of the world de-
manded that the allies take wider re-
sponsibilities to revive Europe.
George Sounds Warning
The prime minister sounded a
warning that the allies themselves
must solve the problem of rehabili-
tating Europe economically and he
appealed to them to forget their
prejudices and cooperate with this
end in view.
Given the floor Immediately after
the French premier, nj. BRAND, had
welcomed the delegations in the
grand salon Of the Cannes Yacht club,
Mr.. Lloyd George launched into
sharply pointed references to the
French claims growing out of the
war. He said the British were equal
ly entitled to put forth claims, since
their taxes as a result Of the war
were twice as heavy as those of any
other country.
The remark of the British premier
that most impressed the delegates
was his reference to the prejudice
that might exist against entering into
relations with the soviet government
because 1t had blood upon its hands.
But" he declared, Il know a coun-
try which quite recently took the
hand Of an assassin in the Near
East
The passage was Immediately
translated for M. BRAND, who first
smiled at the reference TO the An
CORA treaty between France and the
Turkish nationalists, and then re-
torted:
Yes, but we made his acquaintance
in London"
This reference to the fact that the.
Kemalists were invited to London to
confer with the allies last spring pro-
voked laughter. The French premier
refrained from other comment.
After the decision to call the eco
nomic conference was made, the
question arose as to its seat. The
Italians strongly urged their country.
Prague was the only other suggestion,
but all the delegates approved Genoa.

cussion of simple facts about taxes,
tariffs, transportation, wages, cost
of production and distribution.

probation Of turnover.
Restore consumer confidence and
energize retail buying, which, after
all. is the economic pendulum that

SUB RAIDERS To
BE PUNISHED AS
SEA PIRATES BY
BIC 5 CONTRACT
[RepubIIcan A. p. Leased wire1


WASHINGTON, Jan. GA five
power contract to impose the age
old penalties for piracy against naval
laws of naval warfare was approved
today by the armament committee of
the Washington conference.
1t completed the Root formula for
suppression Of U-boat terrorism at
sea and then the committee moved
forward toward q prescription of
gas warfare on sea or land.
Again Mr.. Root drew the resolu-
tion to effect the prohibition. Again
an immediate five-power contract to
abandon gas or other similar chemi-
cal weapons as beyond the pale of
human tolerance is proposed, to be
worked out later by world agree
ment into the fabric of international
law. And again it seemed certain
that under American initiative, war
in future would be stripped of others
Of the horrors German ingenuity let
loose upon the world.
Italy gave prompt adhesion to the
anti-g gas project as real step in
the path of progress and civiliza-
ton. Adjournment of the committee
prevented the views of other dele
cations from being presented, but
all were said to favor the ban on
gas warfare.
AS the naval experts shaping tech
nical questions in the naval limita-
tion sections of the Forthcoming
treaty still were wrangling over
definitions to make clear the agree
ments they have already reached,
the armament committee adjourned
on call. The navy men toiled all
day in the hope of concluding to-
night, but without success. They
will complete their work tomorrow,
however, and the full committee will
be in a position to resume Monday
with the way cleared for quick
framing of the naval limitation
treaty and its omnibus burden of
allied pacts, understandings and
declarations.
1t was not definitely decided to-
night whether the anti igas declar-
alton was to be incorporated in the
voluminous treaty that will be re-
quired to cover the naval under
standings. 1t may be put forth as
a separate product of the confer
ence if final approval is given the

seemed more likely, however, that
it would go into the general treaty,

WASHINGTON, Jan. 6.-The SEN
ate began today its final discussion
or the Newberry case, precipitated by
the contest of Henry Ford against
the seating of Senator Truman III.
Newberry, of Michigan, his Repub-
ncan opponent in the 1918 elections
and was told by Senator Spencer,
Republican OF Missouri, chairman of
the senate privileges and elections
committee, that Senator 'Newberry
himself would take the floor Mon
day and defend himself against the
charges which involve his campaign
expenditures.
The subject, under an unanimous
consent agreement, will remain con-
tinuously before the senate until dis
posed of. A vote is expected some
time next week.
During the debate today, Senator
Newberry's claim to his seat was
denounced and defended. Crowds
filled the galleries in anticipation of
a bitter fight and they could not be
said to be disappointed, for at the
outset, Senator Caraway, Democrat
of Arkansas, launched an attack on
ton he said they were preparing to
take while Senator Spencer and Sem
ator Williams. Democrat of Missis-
sippi. soon Joined in the debate.
When Senator Spencer announced
that he had been informed Senator
Newberry would take the floor Mon
day, it was said by leaders that it
would be the first time in the two
years since his election that the
Michigan senator has addressed the
senate. There was also a prospect
OK speech tomorrow by Senator
Townsend, Mr.. Newberrys Repub-
lican colleague, who was said to be
prepared to speak for three hours in
defense of the junior senator from
his state.
Senator Williams had not long en-
tered today's debate when the presid-
ing officer was frequently forced to

ators shafts produced laughter and

materials for the defense of the re-
public.
Later on he complained of the in
reference of Michael Collins with
the army in relation to the kidnapping
of the correspondent of the London
Times. This, he said, showed that
army was vital.
In his speech announcing his resig-
nation, Mr.. de Valera described his
four years success in keeping united
the two opposite schools of opinion
represented by Charles Berger and
Arthur Griffith. He said this unity
had been maintained until the treaty
was signed in London. He appealed
to his record as a soldier and ex-
pressed great scorn for trickeries in
politics with which he had had ex-
perience during the last few weeks.
The president waxed eloquent when
he referred to having been reared in
q laborer's cottage in county LINER
lex and his uncompromising deciara-
ton for Ireland's separate national
ity. He said that he was not now
even technically a British subject,

coming one. Although he was not
a member Of the Irish republican
brotherhood, he said he hoped when
he died, he would have Fenian
grave, These declarations evoked
the loudest cheers that he had re-
ceiyed since the Dali began its ses-
sions.
The protests against diverting the
Dali Eireann from the ratification or
rejection Of the treaty, revealed the
leaders on both sides Of the contro-
versy as equally anxious for a speedy
vote, and eventually Mr.. de Valera
declared that if a ballot was taken
within As hours, he would be quite
satisfied. Meanwhile, although he
did not say so expressly, it was un-
derstood that his resignation would
be in allegiance.
Mr.. de Valera was elected presi-
dent OF the first Sim Fein conven-
ton, held in 1917, Arthur Griffith,
chairman OF the Sim Fein organiza-
tion, standing aside in his favor.
Mr.. de Valera's disappearance
from the presidency would remove
what he described in his speech today
as the connecting link between the
Cathal Brugha (Charles Burgess)
section OF the Sim F'ein and Mr..
Griffith. 1t would leave the extreme
section and the section favorable to
the treaty in direct conflict.
Brugha, who is minister Of de-
Tense, and Austin Stack, minister for
home affairs, are the most conspicu-
Gus OF the experienced fighting men
on the side OF Mr.. de Valera, but it
is probable that neither of them
would desire to accept the presidency

not vitally concerned over the value
of the railroad, but pointed out that
the reparations commission had
placed the value at the time the Ger
mans left the railroad at $4,000, 900
gold dollars.
A Chinese newspaper correspondent
said:
Suppose China says to you:
Here's the money for the railroad
now would Japan take it?"
"Such a plan" Mr.. Hanihara re-
piled, is not acceptable to our gov

about a better understanding between
Japan and China and we do not want
a question like the raising of money
by China, which might be difficult.
but which the Chinese would succeed
in doing in a burst of patriotism. to
hurt the feelings between the two
countries"
The following statement was issued
by the Chinese and Japanese delega-
tions after today's meeting:
"The twentieth meeting of the
Chinese and Japanese delegates was
held al 3 o'clock in the afternoon in
the governing board room of the Pan
American union building. Discus
sions on the Shantung railway oues-
ton ware continued.
"The Japanese delegates proposed
a railway loan agreement plan for
the settlement of this question on the
basis of the terms of ordinary rail-
way loan agreements entered into by
China with various foreign capitalists
during recent years, namely on the
following general lines:
81. The term of the loan shall be
fixed at Is years while China shall
retain an option of redeeming the
whole outstanding liabilities upon six
months notice after five years from
the date OF the agreement.
"2. A Japanese traffic manager
and chief accountant shall be engaged
in the service of the Shantung rail-
way.
''S. The details of the financial ar
rangement shall be worked out with
Peking between the representatives
of the two parties to the loan.
This plan was not found accept
able TO the Chinese delegation.
"The Chinese delegates on their
part proposed the following two al
tentative plans:
81. China shall make a cash pay
ment for the railway and its appur-
tenant properties with single de-
posit IN a, bank of a third power at
specified date, either before. the
transfer of the properties or when
such transfer is effected.
"2. China shall make a deferred
payment either in treasury notes, or
notes Of the Chinese bankers union
secured upon the railway properties,
extending over a period of IL years
upon fiving six months notice to pay
all the outstanding liabilities. The
first .nstallment is to be paid on the
day on which the transfer OF the rail-
way and properties is completed.
China shall engage that she, upon
her own initiative, shall select and
employ on the Tsingtao- Tsinanfu
railway a district engineer Of Japa-
nese nationality.
Neither of these plans was found
acceptable to the Japanese delegates
in the present form.
