Herriot in Leaving Lon

LONDON, Aug. 9 (By The Associ.
ated Press) A conference on the
question of interallied debts will be
held in the near future, it has been
definitely decided, Premier Herriot
of France announced today just be-
fore he left Paris for a conference
with his cabinet on the work of the
international conference.
The French delegates had been
working persistently to bring about
such an interallied debt discussion
since the present conference opened.
1t Is understood that 1t has not yet
been decided whether the new con-
ference will be held in Paris or
London. 1t was emphasized, how
ever, that the United states repre-
sentatives were not parties to the
decision to hold the debt parleys.

reparation plan into effect, Is being
virtually suspended over the week.

members of his cabinet.
sires to have defined finally the
stand the French delegates shall
take regarding the demand OF the
Germans for the evacuation of the
Ruhr and the question of maintain
Ing Franco-Belgian railroad men In
the Rhineland system, which the
Germans also protest.
Paris advices say the sudden de-
clsion of M. Herriot to resume con-
tact with his colleagues at home has
caused some surprise in political
circles, where 1t Is regarded as CIV
ing color to rumors of lack of har-
mony in the French delegation,
notably between the premier and his
minister of war. General Nollet.
The latter is said to be opposed to
his chiefs tendency to make con-
cessions with regard to the Dawes
plan, and to be adamant in insisting
that France continue TO occupy the
Ruhr until Germany has furnished
conclusive proof of her disarma-
ment.
M. Herrit on the other hand is
quoted in sem,-ofiicial French
news agency dispatch as denying
the existence of any disagreement
In the French delegation.

NEW BRUNSWICK, Aug. s:-

NEW BRUNSWICK, Aug. o.
"Who took the beer?"
That's the question being asked
by the officials Of the county today
and upon which an official investi-
cation has been started under the
direction of Prosecutor Joseph e.
Stricken.
For some time past, the prosecu-
tor said at his summer home In Deal
today, it has been the custom to
store whiskey, wines and other
liquors taken as evidence, in two dark
cells in the county Jail. This stuff
has been kept under paddock and
has not been touched, but because
beer is so bulky 1t was not practical
to place that in the cells and it was
stored in cartons in. the cellar DUR
ing the hot weather two or three
dozens of these cartons of beer have
disappeared and now the efforts of
the prosecutors office are centered
on locating the guilty parties.
s Although the prosecutor did not
name anyone in connection with the
disappearance of the liquor, he said
the matter had been called to the
attention of the Board OF Freehold
ers, and that the further investlga-
ton is to furnish the board with
more particulars.
There is considerable talk about
the county buildings today that some
of the janitors will be called up on
the carpet to answer for the dis
appearance of the beer, but the
ianitors deny that they are the
guilty ones. .,,.r
The beer was placed in the cellar
for safe keeping until an order was
received from the court to destroy ~:
one thing is certain, regardless OF
the consequences some one kept cooi

FIRST VICTIM Of
THE HEAT HERE
John Shuback, Overcome
While at Work, Dies at
the Hospital

John Shuback, a foreman at the
plant of the Raritan Copper Com
pany, is the first victim to succumb
from the heat wave of the past sew
eral days. Mr.. Shuback had been in
the employ of the Raritan Copper
Company for twenty-one' years. He
was overcome by the heat while at
work at the plant on Tuesday and
removed in the ambulance to the
Perth Amboy City Hospital about A
o'clock that day.. where he died at
$3.50 o'clock this morning. He was
being attended by DIR. William T..
Ramsay. Mr.. Shuback was about
sixty. years old and had resided in
this city for a number of years.
Besides his widow, he is survived
by two sons and four daughters.
Patrolman Morris and Chauffeur
Patten were detailed from headquar-
ters to notify the family of the de-
ceased. He~resided at 554 West Side
avenue. The body was taken in
charge by Thomas f. Burke and ar
rangements were completed by the
family. Services will be held Tues
day morning at o o'clock from the
Holy Trinity Slavish church. The
interment will be in the Holy Trinity
cemetery.
While there was some relief
gained yesterday from the heat OF
the previous days by the cooling
breeze which came in from the
northwest following showers spread
over various sections, the mercury
began climbing again this morning
and before the day is out 1t is eX-
pected the heat will come up to the
record of the week. Many are plan
ming to leave the city over the week
end to get away from the heat as
much as possible. Hundre5s of au-
tomobiles are passing through the
city from other places to the sea-
shore to get away from the swell
tering weather that Is now sweeping
the eastern section of the country.
While the weather forecaster says
that the temperature will be about
the same today as 1t was yesterday,
he throws out a ray of hope in the
prediction that there will be thun-
dershowers tonight. This will be
followed by a Sunday that will be
cloudy and cooler with possible
showers in the morning.

Both Answer Attacks
Urge Coolidge Support

NEW BRUNSWICK, Aug. 9.--An
enthusiastic meeting of the Repub-
lican county committee, which was
attended by approximately 900
prominent Republicans was held
here last night. Walter e. Edge,
who is seeking the reelection to the
office of United States senator was
the first speaker of the evening. His
talk was devoted chiefly to his rec
ord as governor and senator. touch
ing also on various national issues.
Hamilton +. kean, opponent of
Senator Edge for the senatorial place
in outlining his platform declared
himself strong for the enforcement
of the prohibition laws, denied al
legations printed in the press against
him and hurled at him by Mr.. Edge.
He said that he has considerable
business interests in Middlesex coun-
ty. particularly in Perth Amboy. Mr..
Kean urged the defense of President
Coolidge and his administration,
warned against giving any support
to LaFollette and his third party.
The LaFollette group has vigorous
socialistic tendencies, Mr.. Kean said,
pleading that conservative Republi-
cans place their entire resources be-
hind Coolidge and Dawes.
Senator Morgan f. Larson an
nounced his candidacy for re-elec-
ton and urged the voters to take a
keen interest in the Forthcoming
election by turning out at the polls.
County Treasurer f. William Hillker,
Charles H. Morris and David Brown,
three aspirants for the county
clerks office, were present at the
meeting but made no formal talks.
In the assembly room were also
Freeholders Clarence Applegate and
Robert Vandenbergh and William
Hoy, candidates for the freeholders
office, but they made no talks.
Douglas Hicks, of this place, an
nounced his candidacy for the gen.
eral assembly. Thomas L. Hanson
said that If the party wants him, he
would seek the reelection as assem-
blyman. Mrs. Eva Newton, of Dun
ellen. urged the support of Mrs. j.
H. Thayer Martin, of Woodbridge,
as third candidate for the assembly
ticket.
Albert w. Appleby, of Old Bridge,
who sometime ago announced his
candidacy for state senator to oppose
Senator Larson was also in attend
ance, but not called on to address
the gathering. To his friends he
said: 'It is downright outrage and
a dirty rotten trick not to give me
an opportunity to speak,"
Preceding the general meeting
about fifty Republicans gave a lun-
cheon in honor of Senator Walter e.
Edge at the Klein hotel.
A general feeling prevailed that
the men voters are for Edge while
the women are favoring Mr.. Kean
for senator.
Mr.. Edge said In part.
Last night, in talking before the
Passaic county Republican executive
1 took my opponet to
task for his petulancy and peevish-
ness and expressed a few opinions
as to what 1 thought of his cam
paign methods. 1 thought 1t might
to helpful to also call attention to
the fact that the law providing the
limit of expenditures allowed can
didates covering all activities Is
$4,000.
