Cites Light Law

Inspector White pointed out that
the law requires at least two lights
on the front of a car and a red light
on the rear. He said the law also
requires motorists must have tail
lights fixed so that the days shine on
the license tag in such a way that
the numerals may be seen for a dis
tance of 100 feet. He said not one mo-
torist in a hundred complies with th1s
section Of the law.
The first Juvenile case of speeding
was reported by the police today. A
squad Of speed cops followed a car
along Pleasant Run Blvd. The pur-
suers said the auto was running thir-

driving. When the policemen started
the chase the girl exchanged seats

Count Peretti de la Rocca
Named az Probable New
Ambassador From France
to the United States
Brands Influence Seen
Said to Have Described
Present Envoy as Out of
Touch With Americans

PARIS, April 20 (By The Associate 4
Press Count Peretti de la Rocca,
political director Of the Foreign Office,
is likely to succeed Jean Jules Jus
serand as Ambassador to the Unite d
States as soon as the former can be
spared by Premier Poincare, it was said
to-day. The retirement of II. Jusse-
rand, according to present plans, wii!
be arranged during his summer visit
to Paris.
Count Porctti de Ia Rocca holds a
position corresponding to that Of per
manent Under Secretary Of State Tor
Foreign Affairs and is next IN charge
under the Foreign Minister.
No ofticia! action has been taken with
regard to d change IN the Ambassador
ship, and the selection Of a new diplo-
matte representative would OF course
be dependent upon the approval Of the
State Department in Washington. An
lntimation Of Count Peretti de Ia
Rocca's desire TO go to Washington and
the governments intention to send him,
however, appears already to have
reached the Washington authorities.
The French government, it is ox-
planned in French quarters, desires to
DO nothing OF precipitate nature IN
view of N. Jusserand's long and ad-
mlrable services in Washington, his
intimate friendships with previous
Presidents and his correct relations
with the present Administration. It
appears, however, that doubts as to
whether he should remain in Washing-
ton arose at the Foreign Offlce in posi-
tive form when Rene Vivani returned
from America in May, 1921.
BRAND Confirms Opinion
The observations made by BRAND at
the Washington armament conference
last fall appear to have confirmed the
feeling In the Foreign Office that it had
not been kept fully informed respect
ing current American opinion, not only
toward France but other European
countries, and that not enough had
been done TO present the French view
point to Americans. 1t was also felt
by officials, 1t is stated, that the AM
bassador had not sufficiently under
stood American psychology just before
and during the Washington conference.
- There has been much comment in
official quarters, since the return of
the French delegation, concerning N.
Jusserand's part in the conference, his
remoteness, as it has been said. from
the American press, and his almost
complete absence of contact, it is de-
clared, with the principal CORE

The parleys, initiated by Lord Mayor
ONeill Of Dublin, and Archbishop
Byrne, apparently have come to an
abrupt end without immediate hope Of
revival. The Free Staters centered
their offers on an election in June. but
the republicans opposed this at every
step. The only point upon which the
conrerees agreed was that the murders

When the negotiations broke down,
Irish labor leaders, who are demand

what steps must be taken.
