Washington.-Deta of both the

BRAND of France created q stir in
Conference circles, but the DISPOSE
ton in French quarters was to mini
mize its immediate effects on the
Washington negotiations. Albert Sar-
raut, head of the delegation, an
aounced that he would go ahead with
his Conference duties pending instruc-
tions from the new Cabinet, and indi-
Gated his belief that the change of
administration would not vitiate the
agreement projects here.
Included in the few treaty provisions
not yet finally accepted in the informal
conversations of the big Five" are
understood to be the sections relating
to disposition of scrapped ships and
fixing a status quo" for Pacific forth
fications. On the former, however,
the chief delegates are said to be in
virtual agreement while in regard to
Notifications the instructions awaited
from Toxic are generally expected to
make an early settlement possible.
None of the five Powers has at pres

the ratio agreement permits them to
build from two to five each. If battle
ships partially complete, but falling
outside the list of retained vessels
could be remodeled into airplane car
rier types, it is argued, much of the
money already spent on hulls could
be saved.
Opposed to this is the view that to
convert discarded battleships into an
other type of war vessel would not be
in accord with the animating purpose
OF the Washington Conference. This
position is understood to have been
taken in the big Five" meetings by
Secretary Hughes. To support it the
argument was made that as a matter
Of policy the Conference should give
a practical demonstration of it's de-
sire to reduce armament by specify
ing that the surplus ships must be
put out of business altogether.

HANG|NGS DENIED
BY ARMY OFFICERS
Only One Man Was Executed
at GieVres
SCOUTS LYNCHING REPORT
Charges Made BY Ex-Member OF Six.
teenth infantry Refured BY An
other Witness-Quizzed
BY Watson.

Washington contradict
ing that of former service men was
given by army officers before Senate
committee investigating charges that
American soldiers had been hanged
without trial in France. Col. Charles
J. Symonds, Of Camp Sherman, SO
years in the army, who was in COM
mand at Gievres, at which place sol
diers had told of hearing reports of
numerous executions, declared only
one man was hanged there and that
the hanging by his orders, was secret.
The fact of the execution was made
public later, the Colonel explaining
that the murder for which the soldier
was put to death had not been COM
mitted in his area, and he did not
want big crowd on hand to witness
it. The picture of gallows, supposed
to be at Gievres, which had been filed
with the committee by former SOL
der, was identified by Colonel
Symonds as the structure built there,
cor one closely resembling it,"
Questioned regarding testimony that
two negroes were lynched near
Gievres, Colonel Symonds said he
could not conceive of anything of the
kind happening without report of it
reaching him.
Senator Watson, Democrat, Georgia,
whose charges Of illegal executions
led to the investigation, sharply cross
examined Colonel Symonds concerning
the secrecy surrounding the execu-
ton at Gievres."
"Was the soldier hanged in uni.
form?" Senator Watson asked.
Eyes. The body was taken down
and buried in the regular way. The
grave was in separate part of the
cemetery" ~
did the soldier make any statement
prior to the hanging?"
ION the gallows he asked that his
family be notified, that they be not
told as to how he died. He also asked
that they shoot and not hang him."
Colonel Symonds said.
J. P. Fyffe, manufacturer of Chat
tanooga, Tenn, who was executive Of
ficer to Colonel Symonds at Gievres
from August, 1918, to August, 1919,
testified there was only one execution
there in that period.
While efforts were being made to
keep the hanging at daylight secret,
Mr.. Fyffe said, "the news got around
by noon"
Il never heard Of a lynching, and l
certainly would have heard of it had
it occurred" he added
Capt. Joseph D. Hahn, now stationed
at Camp Benning. Ca, declared there
was not word Of truth in the charges
by Harry w. Segal, a soldier, that he
(Hahn) had taken part in the unlaw-
full execution Of two negro soldiers.
Other witnesses said they never heard
of lynching in the Sixteenth Infan-
try, as witnesses appearing heretofore
before the committee had asserted.
Marvin ]. Menifee, of Luray, Va,
declared he was with Major Heroine
l.. Opie, of Stanton, Va, commander
of the Third Battalion, One Hundred
and Sixteenth Infantry, in the Argonne
and never heard of charges in France
that the Major had shot any of his
men.

BRAND Resigns, His Arrange
ments With Lloyd George
Being Opposed.
CANNES PROGRAM IS UPSET
Poincare Invited to Form New French
Ministry-May Fight German Nora
torium-Senate, BY Close Vote,
Seats Newberry of Michigan,
With a Rebuke.
BY EDWARD w. PIcKARD

FRANCE spilled the beans last week.
BRAND and his cabinet are out.
Poincare is forming a new ministry
with himself as it's head. All the
doings Of the meeting of the supreme
council at Cannes are nullified, at
least for the present. Plans for the
economic and financial conference
may have to be revised. The Ger
mans probably will be called on by the
French to make the reparations pay
ments when they are due or suffer the
penalty.
Lloyd George at Cannes had agreed
that Great Britain would make a
treaty guaranteeing France against at
tack by Germany, provided, however,
that the French ministry of marine
and the British admiralty should reach
complete agreement on submarines
and other naval craft, and provided
also that the French and British gov
ernments should make their foreign
policies conform, especially in the near
east. He required, too, that France

all meant yielding by France to
British policies and at once storm

hurried to that city and after telling
the cabinet all about what he had
done and engaging in heated con-
troversy with President Millerand,
went before the chamber of deputies
and presented the entire program, tell
ing its members they could take it or
leave it. Then he bluntly announced
the resignation of the ministry with
out waiting for vote.
Poincare, the main point of whose
policy is Germany must pay" was in
vited to form a new cabinet and got
busy at once. It was understood that
Count Lasteyrie would be minister of
finance. He recently Investigated con-
ditions in Germany and believes the
Germans can pay the PREPARATIONS with
out moratorium provided their bud
get is properly balanced and sufficient
taxes are imposed to bring their taxa
ton totals up to the level of those
paid in France.
In all the European capitals and in
Washington there was something akin
to CONSERVATION when the news from
Paris was received. The conference at
Cannes automatically came to an end.
The American government, which had
not decided whether or not to accept
the invitation to take part in the
Genoa conference, halted consideration
of the question until there are further
developments. The German cabinet
saw the chance for moratorium fad
ing and was CORRESPONDENCE despOn-
dent. The English were reticent but
plainly indignant and relations be-
tween them and the French, severely
strained for several years, were not
improved.

They subsist entirely upon the pro-

only with the varied seasons for

caribou, caribou meat forms the en-
tire food for that period; during seal
hunting they eat seals.

have never seen a tree. What little
