PARIS GOVERNMENT IS PLEDGED
TO ADOPT WASHINGTON
NAVAL AGREEMENT.
WILL RA1IFY TREATY
CHAMBER OF DEPUTIES WILL
RISE OR FALL ON QUESTION
OF RATIFICATION.

Paris.-The French government has
committed itself through recommen-
dation made to the foreign affairs
commission of the chamber of depu-
ties by Premier Poincare to stand or
fall on the question of ratification Of
the Washington naval agreement.
Aristide BRAND, former premier,
seconded the stand of NJ. Poincare on
the question, which also embraced the
four-p0wer treaty as amended in the
United States Senate by Senator
Brandegee Of Connecticut. The pre-
mier declared that the reservation of
Mr. Brandegee would in no way "en-
tail military participation"
That the chamber was practically
agreed upon ratification was shown
when NJ. BRAND, lender of the Left,
and Andre Tardeiu, head of the
Clementists, both announced their
support of the premier in his attempt
to put the treaties through.
Georges Mnndel, former chief of the
cabinet under Premier Clemenceau,
alone was reluctant. Mr.. Sarrut, who
signed the final documents in Wash
ingtOn as a member of the POincare
cabinet, although appointed by NJ.
BRAND, staunchly advocated ratifica-
tiOn.
The governments viewpoint, as ex-
pressed by NJ. Poincare, found a stern
opponent In NJ. Guernier, who declared
France had been put in the same po-
sltion as Italy by the Washington ac-
cords, so far as naval armaments were
concerned.
"We must have more ships than It.
aly," he argued because we have
more colonies and longer seaboards."
The commission decided to refer the
matter to a subcommission, which will
report buck Immediately after the New
Years recess. NJ. Guernier explained
however, that there was little chance
of the Washington naval agreements
coming before the chamber for open
discussion before Jan. Is, us we have
other important matters to attend to,
including the budget
The Brandegee "noalliance" reser-
vation referred to by Premier Poin-
care in Paris, in connection of ratifi-
cation of the Washington conference
treaties, apparently is the reservation
proposed to the Horsepower Pacific
treaty by Senator Brandegee, Repub-
lican, Connecticut, and subsequently
reported and sponsored by the foreign
relations committee after changes had
been made in the text.
1t was adopted by the Senate with
out change as reported by the commit
tee, the vote being 90 to 2. Its text
follows:
'The United States understands that
under the statement in the preamble
or under the terms of this treaty,
there is no commitment to armed
force, no alliance, no obligation to join
in any defense"

May Sow Grain From Planes.

TuIare, Calif.-Sowlng from air
planes may be the latest agricultural
kink. Grain growers in the Tulare
Lake basin region, unable to reach
their lands because of lake waters and

ably together, will send one of their

II was smoking
my pipe when
it came to me-
Which may, or may not,
be a boost for Edgeworth

How many good ideas are born in
pipe Of tobacco! There is something
in the calm contentment Of smoking q
pipe that seems to open up the mind
for new ideas.
A busy man, thinker, whose brain
Is crisscrossed with a thousand i'm
pressions, finds that smoking his pipe
wipes out most of the confusion, and
leaves his mind clean, so that the new
idea, the inspiration, has a much
better chance to make its impression
las II pipe-smoking wiped all the
chalk-marks from the blackboard Of
the mind and invited new ideas, new
thoughts, and creative plans to out
line themselves thereon.
Lots Of men get good ideas when
shaving. Many more find their new
ideas when putting away at the pipe
The right kind Of tobacco is an i'm
portant matter to q pipe esmoker-
though, like breathing, he seldom
thinks Of it. Having settled on GER
tain brand, it becomes habit to buy
that. II the tobacco just suits his
taste, it doesn t matter what its name
Is or what 1t costs-it becomes
his tobacco.
Edgeworth suits many men. We
presume there are some men who
wouldn't like Edgeworth. It is a

Acting on tip from an outsider
the officers closely watched a

In one of the trunks officers

uncovered what they believe to be

bucket arrangement with an in

trunks was found an opium smok-

smoking of opium was gaining in
popularity in the local Chinatown,

NOT A SURPRISE

ave Have Been Expecting
1t Daily and So Had
Nike" Says Patrick,
Member Chicago Police.
(By The Associated Press.)

Chicago, Aug. 23,-"It's a sorry
day for Ireland" 1t was the
choked voice Of Patrick Collins,
brother of Michael Collins. when
informed of the Irish leaders, as
sassination.
Patrick Collins is a sergeant on
the Chicago police force.
II can't say it is as much of a
shock to me as it might be-" he
said. 1--WE have been expecting it
daily and so had Mike, for he
wrote me not two weeks ago that
any day we might get this news.
But he wrote me that if l did get
the news that he had been killed,
we would know that he had died
like a Collins and fighting for Ire
land. Where did the assassination
take placer
"At Bandon, County Cork" he
was told.
at was there, was it?" he said,
"Well, Bandon is just twelve miles
from where we boys were born. We
were born at Clonakilty. Many's
the time Mike and 1 have walked to
as boys. Never would I be-
lieve anybody in that town would
kill my brother.
IF it was a real Irishman that
killed Mike l would say the Irish
race stands discredited. But !
know it wasn't It was some dirty
BLACKBOARD not fit to wipe his
boots. When this trouble has gone
from Ireland, I guess I can say
without boasting that the name of
Michael Collins will be high on the
list of martyrs that have fought
and died for the 'ould sod
