instead of 100000 as at present. The
other $4,000 would be composed of
deferred units" he said, such as
corps and Army troop commands, lack
of which in peace time would not
materially delay mobilization and
which would ease the guard recruit
ing problem.
Taking up the Organized Reserves
Gen. Pershing commented at length
on results of the September defense
test, but pointed out that the task
of giving adequate training to re-
serve officers, who constitute the
backbone Of the system, was filled
with difficulties. He suggested that
the present single roll of some So
900 reserve officers be rearranged so
that from $4,000 to $4,000 be classified
as on active training status, one
third Of these to be called out an
nually for q brief period Of training
service.
The report called attention to the
promotion blockade in the Regular
Army, particularly in the grade of
captain, and urged that q provision
for selective promotion Of captains
affecting 10 per cent or so of the

H0bBS1S JAILED
IN BLACKMA|L CASE.
Accused in Connection With
Scheme, to Effort Money
From Prince.
by the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
LONDON, November 2s.--After a
preliminary hearing in court today,
the jail doors swung shut again upon
William Cooper Hobbs. solicitors
clerk, one-of the prominent figures in
the suit of c. E. Robinson, former
bookmaker, against the Midland
Bank. the, testimony in which reveal
ed a b1ackmailing plot, through
which an unnamed Indian potentate
was mulcted out of f150,000 after be-
ing discovered in a Paris apartment
with Robinson's wife.
The arrest of Hobbs at Gravesend
last night as he was trying to leave
the country. chraged with receiving
property stolen abroad, provided a
sensational sequel to the Robinson
trial, in which final judgment was
deferred yesterday pending legal ar
gument.
Hobbs was brought to Bow Street
poiice court this morning and charged
under the larceny act with receiving
property which was described by
representative of the director Of pub
lie prosecution as a check for 100000,
which Hobbs ~ accused of having re-
ceived on December 81. 1919. The
court ordered Hobbs remanded.
Calls Charge Absurd.
The accused man characterized the
warrant on which he was arrested as
quite absurd" He was taken to jail
in a taxicab.
In the testimony of Montague Noel
Newton, an ex-Army officer, who was
brought from abroad and paid $4,000
10 become a witness in the case, Hobbs
was described as a solicitor whom
the alleged conspirators against the
potentate's well filled Golfers had en-
gagged to handle their affairs when
lawyers services were necessary.
Newton himself unblushingly testi-
fled to having been one of the chief
parties to the conspiracy, saying he
had posed as the woman's husband in
the Paris apartment, where the climax
OF the blackmailing drama was
staged Newton is reported to have
left England last night
1t was learned today that Scotland
Yard detectives have for more than
q year been investigating various as
poets Of the affairs of Newton, Hobbs
and Robinson. In view of his con-
slant appearances in court during the
Robinson trial no warrant was issued
against Hobbs, but when the detec-
tives learned that a quantity of his
baggage had been shipped to Graves
end they acted imm ediately, arresting
him on regency warrant as he was
about to board a Holland liner. A
companion arrested with him was de-
tanned only for the night.
After being remanded this morning
Hobbs protested his innocence. The
fear felt in some official quarters in
London that the connection of the
potentate with the affair might have
been known in the native state of
India, of which he is the ruler. with
q consequent possible serious reaction
on his subjects, was somewhat allayed
Today. During the trial the prince
was by court order only alluded to
as "Mr. A." and today it was an
nounced by the London correspondent
of the Pioneer Press of India he had
been informed that the potentate's
identity had not been published in the
newspapers of India.

Mt sSOIHNI ENTRENCHED

They may still call Mussoiini "dc- tator," but he will be dictator by con. stitutional authority now since the Italian elections. Under the new cleo ton law the Fascist party is entitled to a two-thirds representation in the chamber of deputies. One-third Is ap- portioned among the other parties.
 This elimination of blocs and groups will take away the possibility of po-
 itica dickering for ministerial pow or. There can be constructive work under this arrangement, provided the Fascist party continues to do as well 10 Italy as it did under the enthusi- asm of a bloodless fight.
 Mussolini is firmly entrenehed. and never before have so many voters ex- pressed their interest in the affairs of the nation. The government is thor oughly satisfactory to the people Of Italy. and Mussolini has taken a po- sition which has 10 be recognized as making Italy powerful, by all other nations. Strength and firmness is there now where there has been weakness and wagering.
 An interesting aspect of the situa- ton is that the power Of the Fascist seems to have been strongest in those localities where the "red'' tendencies had grown to be the greatest menace. theoretically. as one can readily nn- derstand why opponents of the reds would come ont in great numbers where the reds were most threaten ing. But often it docs not so work out in practice. In ltaly's case it did. The country is behind Mussolini to- day. It remains to be seen if there shall appear in him now any of the qualities which would bring his downfall eventually qualities which it has been hintad he possesses.
 Mussolini will have more deputies in the chamber than all the other parties combined. The new election law gives two-thirds oi the member ship of the chamber 10 the party which secures plurality in the popu- lar poll if such plurality is at least twenty-five per cent of the total votes cast. More than half the votes cast were for him.
 The somewhat romantic political ex- perience of Italy, has proven, thus | far, to be happy one.

THE PRACTICAL ADVANTAGES OF

revenues and an agent for separations payments
 This plan has been evolved by ex- perts from the United States, France, Great Britain, Belgium and Italy men who were inspired only by a de- giro to find n way for Europe out of the chaotic condition which brings loss with the passing of each day. The report reflects the utmost good faith and honesty of purpose If such reas- sllrance were needed. II leaves Ger many with q choice of joining with the world in Il struggle sfor her own and world prosperity, or of remaining the sullen obicctor to a plan which gives here every opportunity to go to work and regain economic inde- pendence as the other nations aid her practically and by imposing upon her no burdens not assumed under the Treaty of Versailles.
 Germany can pay and will be forced to pay. sooner or later. She has this choice now to pay in a way most ad- vantageous to her. Only complete de- termination never to pay at all, let the consequences be what they may, will move her to refuse to accept this plan.
 The worst of it is Germany's ac- ccptance of the plan and her living up to it would be complete reversal of form. May we expect much as we may hope for, such reversal?
