Of THREE HOURS
ASSA|LS PACTs;

Senate Chamber Most of the

As Missouri Senator De-
IiVerS TRADE,
NO EFFORT MADE TO
ANSWER THE ATTACK
Administration Regard Rati-
tiCatiOn Of the -Four Power
Pacific Treaty As a Fore
gone Conclusion,

Washington, March 16.-The
campaign of the irreconcilables
against the four-power Pacific
treaty continued without abate-
ment in the sena. today despite
signs of waning interest and the
disposition of leaders TO regard
ratification Of the pact as a fore
gone conclusion.
For more than three hours, in a
senate chamber which most of the
time was all but deserted, Senator
Reed, democrat. Missouri assailed
both the four-power and navat
treaties, which he said would fit
together to put the United States
in a position of "helplessness" in
the Pacific. He charged that the
facts underlying the 5-5-3 naval
settlement had been misrepresent-
ed, and put into the record figures
Of his own designed to show that
superiority of speed, armament and
auxiliary craft would greatly in
crease the relative strength of the
British and Japanese navies.
Senator Reeds address was in
terrupted but a half dozen times
by senator's who questioned him on
minor points of information re-
garding the naval estimates he
submitted and when he had finish
ed the debate drifted to other sub
jects
The administration leaders made
no effort to reply to the attack,
maintaining that yesterdays agree
ment to vote finally on the treaty
on March "a had crushed all pos
sibilities OF an adverse vote.
Flays Republicans.
Toward the end of his argument
Senator Reed turned his fire on
the apparent diminution of interest
in the debate, noting for the record
that only two republican senators
were present, and flaying the re-
publicans who had stood with him
against the Versailles treaty but
now were supporting the four
power pact. These men, he said
! ha d heard the Commanding voice
of their political party. but kept
! away from the debate on the sem
ate floor because they were
ashamed"
In the view of senator's who have
canvassed the situation carefully,
the two big issues remaining to be
settled in the four-power treaty
fight revolve about the foreign re-
lations committees mo alliance"
reservation and the compromise
reservation that is to be proposed
regarding participation of outside
powers in conference over Pacific
questions. A group Of republican
senators are still said to be strong
ly opposed to all reservations and
inclined to work against the COM
mittee proposal even though ad-
ministration leaders fear that its
defeat might endanger ratification
of the treaty itself. The CONFER
ence" reservation has not yet been
offered, but an effort will be made
to put it in form acceptable to
various senators who had objected
to the proposal when it was before
the senate in the shape of a textual
amendment

BY NOON TODAY
Deputy Prosecutor to Com
plete His Argument This
Morning; Sufficient Evil
denCe to Convict, Says.
tBy The Associated Press }

Los Angeles, Callt, March IT,
Asa Keyes, deputy district attor-
ney, was nearing the close of the
final argument in the trial of Mrs.
Madelynne Obenchain, charged
with the murder of j. Belton Ken
nedy, when an adjournment was
declared by Judge Sidney n.
Reeve late today. Indications
were Keyes would complete his ad-
dress tomorrow morning AID the
jury would retire by noon.
Keyes replied to defense argu-
ments that no motive had been
shown for Mrs. Obenchain to con-
Kennedy, by declaring it had been
shown she had been spurned by
Kennedy. He reviewed the rela-
tions between the defendant and
the slain man from 1917 to August
5, 1921, the date of the shooting
and read from the letters which
passed between them. 1t was the
fifth time during the trial Mrs.
Obenchain heard these missives
read: Kennedy turned her down,
not once but three times" the
prosecutor declared.
letters Show Motive.
Keyes said Mrs. Obenchain's let
ters speak more truthfully than
her lips" and argued to the jury
that the letters showed the motive
for the crime in Kennedy's refusal
to marry her.
Obenchain held Kennedy, Burch
and Ralph Obenchain 'in her
grasp and turned every one of
them into love slaves"
Speaking of Mrs. obenchain's
testimony, Keyes said:
when Madalynne Obenchain
tells you she never was in Burchs
room while ne was in Los Angeles
except on one occasion she is tell
ing you a deliberate falsehood, and
If she will lie about that she will
lie about anything in this case"
In opening his argument this
morning, Mr.. Keyes told the jury
that there was Sufficient evidence
to convict Mrs. Obenchain of the
crime of murder" and said they
would "be false TO their oaths" if
they let the fact that the defendant

Mrs. Obenchain watched Keyes
intently as he argued, but it was
not apparent that his statements
concerning her actions or her tes-
timony affected her. She occa-
casionally toyed with small sill
yer pencil.
Jud Rush, senior counsel for the
defense, completed his argument
this morning in an eloquent plea
that brought tears to Mrs. Oben-
chains eyes as she sat beside him
He asked the jury to return a ver-
dict that would open the barred

SLASH IN ARMY
BILL DISRUPT
TRAINING PLANS
Coaching of Reserve OFF,
GERS viii Have to Be Aban-
doned, Acting Secretary
Wainwright Says.

! Washington, March 16.-Acting
Secretary Wainwright said today
that the proposal Of the house ap-
propriations committee to cut the
| $4,000,000 item in the army's ap-
preparation bill submitted for pay
Of reserve officers to $3.50, 900
would prevent the carrying out of
plans for the training of some 49,
600 reserve officers during the
year.
The 100000 item. he said. was
submitted to cover pay of the of
ficers when called to active service
for their annual fifteen day train
ing period. With the sum the COM
mittee proposed to allow, he added
1t would be impossible to give this
training except to such officers of
the reserve corps as were willing
to attend without pay and at their
own expenses.
Matter Is Serious.
He said the matter was serious
from the point of view of the war
department since it tcneded to dis
courage men with adequate war
experience or other military train
ing from entering the reserve
corps. Upon tho successful com
Ipletion of that corps, he added. de-
lpended the whole national defense
project worked out in the act of
1920.
1t has been computed that when
! the new army plan providing for
{ development of the national guard
and the organized reserve has been
made fully effective that a total OF
10000 reserve officers will be
needed for the various divisional
units so that they can be modified
quickly in the event Of war.
There are now enrolled in the
reserve some $4,000 officers and
! the reserve officers training corps
designed to supplement the re-
serves has been erected to produce
1000 additional reserve officers
this year about double that num-
her next year. 5000 in 1924 and by
1928 to turn out 10000 new reserv-
| lists annually. This figure would
provide, it has been estimated, for
/ the retirement from the reserve of
officers who gave their experience
during the war and would keep the
reserve corps itself at its full
strength of 10000.
Outlines Summer Plans.
In order to give the present re-
serve officers "refresher" courses
and developments in the military
art, growing out of the post war
study of that struggle. 1t had been
planned, Secretary Wainwright ex-
planned, to assemble 1000 men of
+ the corps in each of the corps areas
this summer TO witness demonstra-
tions by regular troops and to take
such instructions as has been pro
vided for If the cut in appro-
priations recommended by the ap-
preparations committee of the
house is made by congress, Mr..
Wainwright added, It would be i'm
possible to carry out even this linz
tied project.

STRIKE is PREDICTED
IN HARD COAL FIELDS

New York, March 16.-Operators
of seventyfour anthracite coal
mines went into secret session here
tonight to frame their answer to
the nineteen wage demands sub
mitted yesterday by leaders of or
ganized labor in the coal fields
Whether they will accept. reject
or counter the demands of the
miners will not be made known
until tomorrow, when owners and
workers will hold a joint session
Regardless of the outcome of this
conference, it is generally predicted
on both sides and py official OBJ
servers of the United States de.
partment Of labor, that the anthra
cite mines will suspend operations
after April !. The object of to-
morrow's session will be to de-
termine whether protracted sus-
pension or strike may be averted
by an offer to compromise the
wage question.
Secretary of Labor Davis here to-
day, banished all probability of
government Intervention in the
present negotiations.
Unless a protracted suspension
or lengthy strike results, reaching
o climax which will result in direct
injury to the consuming public. we
shall not intervene" he said.
Although it had been reported
that Mr.. Davis would confer with
John l.. Lewis, president of the
international organization of the
United Mine Workers he declared
lie would not participate in the
controversy at present, and thai
his trip to New York was in no
way connected with the coal ques
ton.

tives, DIR. f. G. Davis and William

1.-THE operators, Dut lDdL tue Idltel
would offer compromise set or
counter proposals.
The owners have intimated that
they would seek a revision of the
wage scale downward rather than
lupward.
The miners base their claims for
a higher scale on assertions that
wages have not advanced in pro
portion with living costs.
The owners claim that the con-
sumer is paying too much for the
product, and that excessive wages
in the mines is responsible.
Heads of the district unions to-
day asserted that the miners "are
preparing for little vacation
after April i, when the preesnt
wage agreement expires. 1t IS
looked upon as certain that should
negotiations toward a compromise
| be undertaken at tomorrow's ses-
sion they will require at least four
weeks for settlement.
This would cause a temporary
shutdown of the mines for at least
three weeks, it is held, since work .
ers' organizations have already de-
cided to suspend April l, unless ali
| of their nineteen demands arc
