Soldiers on Special
Job at Panama Zone,
Says State Secretary

WASHINGTON, Oct. 1S.-secretary
of State Kellogg explains that the
sending of American soldiers into
Panama City, from the Canal Zone, to
shoot down rent-strikers who refused
to dispense, was police duty author
lied in the Panama treaty of 1908.
That treaty provides that whenever,
in the opinion of the Washington gov
eminent, the Panama government can
not maintain order in Panama City,
Colon and waters adjacent, American
troops may be used for the purpose.
On this occasion the president of Pan
anna asked that they be sent in.
The strikers had demanded that
landlords be satisfied with IL to IS per

CAPITAL LEVY
ENDORSED BY
FRENCH PARTY
CGillaux to Talk to the
Radical Socialists
(speoIaI 70 rhs paIIy wOrkerl

NICE, France, Oct. 16--When Joseph
caillaux, French foreign minister, ap-
pears today before the congress Of
radical socialists In session here he
will not only have to defend his failure
to get satisfactory debt settlement
out of his recent trip to the United
States, bu he will be confronted with
a demand for capital levy, eloquently
advocated yesterday by Mr.. Edward
Herriot, former premier.
The. congress, early today, passed a
resolution insisting that France shall
not pay debts to the allies in greater
amounts than she receives from Ger
many This action followed the con
clusion of Herriot's speech, started
yesterday afternoon and finished this
morning, urging that France make a
heroic effort to pay her war debt.
1--WE are besieged on all sides by
Debtors" said Herriot why not face
the music with an honest desire to
pay UP, resulting in healing this
gaping wound?"
Party Controls Chamber.
The resolution on war debts is
especially significant in view Of the
fact that It was introduced by Henry
Franklin-Bouillon, president of the
foreign affairs committee of the cham
Der of deputies. His resolution reads:
1.-THE congress invites the present
government and all future govern
ments to enter into an undertaking
never to pay the allies any more than
France receives from Germany"
May Challenge Government.
The raising of the issue of cap
ital levy at the congress is inter
preted to be the opening gun of a
campaign to GUST the present govern
ment and bring. Herriot and the rad
ical socialists again into complete
power.
The Locarno deliberations are to
come before the congress and resolu-
tons that will form the basis for an
attack upon BRAND, the foreign min
lister, may be accepted.

FRENCH NO POKER
PLAYERS; I HEY
TALK TOO MUCH
Lausanne Gives Version
of Debt Farley
(speeIaI to rhe DAILY MoRKER.l

Especial to The DAILY WORKER.)
PARIS, France, Oct. 16.- Stephane
Lausanne, one of the members of the
Caillaux debt mission to the United
States, and famous editor Of the Paris
newspaper lie Matin, criticising the
deliberations conducted at Washing
ton before the American club of Paris
at a luncheon here yesterday.
The Paris editor evidently respects
American ability in one respect at
the poker table. He admitted that he
was willing to play almost any game
with them except poker, but he draws
the line there. AS poker players,
Americans have no peers.
French Too Speedy.
Second, the French delegation was
in too great a hurry to finish the
game. One cannot definitely fix the
closing hour at the start or stipulate
the exact hour of departure. Dele
gates to such a conference cannot
work with their eyes ON the clock.
Third, the French missions hands
were tied at the start by pledge to
hold out for an agreement making
Frances part of the contract entire
ly contingent ON German payments to
France.
Too Much Jabberine.
Fourth, we were inclined to talk
too much. Good poker does not mean
jabbering. M. Theunis Former Bel
gian premier), when he returned with
the Belgian debt mission, gave NJ.
Caillaux excellent advice when he told
him to speak for publication twice on
his visit to America--once upon his
arrival and once upon his departure
hello the first time and goodbye
the second"
M. Lausanne severely criticised the
Americans for Disgusting the truth
concerning the treatment the French
commission would receive in Wash
ington, and intimated that had they
known the real attitude of the gov
eminent of the United States, it is
doubtful whether they would have
journeyed there. to try to achieve an
understanding on the question Of
French debts to the American govern
ment.

COOLIDGE URGED

C. 0. p. Worried Over
1925 Election
Especial to The Daily wOrksr)

WASHINGTON, Oct. 16.-If Gov
Ed. Jackson of Indiana, pays any
heed to the flocks of kilograms and
long distance telephone calls that are
going his way from republican lead
ers in the capital he will appoint AL
bert ]. Beveridge to the senate va
cancy caused by the death of Sena-
tor Samuel M. Ralston.
President Coolidge was being urged
today by these same republican lead
ers to exert his influence in Beve-
ridges behalf, but with what success
is not known. The president, while
very friendly to and with Beveridge,
has some embarrassment in the mat
ter because his. secretary, Everett
Sanders, also is regarded as an as
pirant for the honor.
Fear fractional Fight.
The republican regulars want to see
Beverage named not because they
have any deep or abiding affection for
the boy orator" Of fifteen years ago,
but because they believe his selection
would forestall what promises to be
fractional republican fight in Indiana
next year that may cost them seats
in the senate they can i'll afford to
lose.
Fear Defeat Next Year.
Republican leaders are viewing the
senatorial elections next year with
considerable foreboding anyway, and
they desire harmony wherever and
whenever it is obtainable.
Thirty-three senators are up for re.
election next year, and control Of the
senate hinges upon the results. Or.
dinarily the republicans would not be
unduly concerned, but 1t happens, that
an odd twist in the electoral wheel has
so arranged it that of the SO seats a,
stake only eight of them are demo
cratic, and of these eight all but one
are from the solid south where repub
licans cannot possibly hope to gain q
seat. The eighth is in Indiana.
Thus, the democrats stand to lose
virtually nothing, and the republicans
stand to lose control Of the senate
should there be such wave as that
in 1922, which carried many republi
can senators into the political discard

China PACT
ON TARIFFS
IS FADING
Armies Take Positions
Around Shanghai

SHANGHAI, China, Oct. 16.-Pros-
poets that the question of Chinese
tariffs will be settled by force Of arms
and not In the conference Of lmper-
iallst powers with the Picking govern
ment at the capital, Increase with the
war like movements of Chinese mill
tary commanders threatening to seize
the Shanghai area and drive the
Fengtien troops northward.
strawn Train Held Up
When silas H. strawn, Standard
Oil attorney and American delegate
to the Picking conference tried to
leave Shanghai for Picking late Thurs
day, his train was first delayed by
troop trains Of the Fengtien forces
moving out Of the Shanghai area to
take positions along the Shanghai
Marking railroad, and the Strawn
train was later nearly wrecked when
the line was cut at wash and the
train seized by soldiers.
Upon orders from Picking the train
was released, however, and allowed
to proceed.
Fengtien troops to the number of
5000 are withdrawing from Shanghai
area to shorten the line of expected
attack from the Chekiang and Chilli
forces from the south and west. These
forces evidently aim to drive the
Fengtien troops out Of the Shanghai
area and northward out of Kiangsu
province, seeking to control the
Yangtze valley with its rich income
of customes and to hold it as an ac-
complished fact before the much
talked of tariff conference has any
thing to say about it.
May Create General Warfare
The fighting, if persisted in, may
extend into Honan province to the
west and up the Yangtze valley to
central China. 1t has possibilities of
completely disrupting the tariff con-
ference and creating conditions that
will force direct dealing with the ma
tionalist movement by the imperialist
powers.
Both railway lines out of Shanghai
are in the possession of Fengtien
troops, who are said to be preparing
to make stand to the west near
Soochow.

Gitlow has issued the following
statement on the action Of the cleo.

LOCARNO PACT
INITIATED BY
SEVEN NATIONS
German Nationalist are
Pessirnistic
lspeeIaI q The paIIy w0rksrl

The farce is ended The mperialist
funkeys are departing. The so-calIed
European security" pact and the &C.
companylng arbitration treaties were
initiated here late this evening. The
word "Inltiaied" is used to designate
this act In the sense that the min
listers representing the various gov.
eminent place their signatures on the
documents. The delegates explained
that by initiating the paets they will
not become Immediately effective but
must be ratified by their various gov
ernments.
The pact accepted is vastly differ
ent from the one contemplated when
the conference was called. A two
fold motive was involved in calling
the ministers together for the pur-
pose Of devising security pact. The
principal one was the desire of the
tory government of Britain to con-
solidate European bloc against So
Wet Russia. The other motive was
the desire to do away with strife
among the European nations so that
the colonial wars now raging and
the new ones that are threatening
can be prosecuted more effectively.
Neither of these aims can be realized
thru the present pact, as explained
exclusively in yesterdays dispatches
to the DAILY WORKER.

to sign the documents, which one of
his agents helped formulate, Benito
Mussolini, the bloody monster of

lions for his safety the craven

per cent anti-fascist.
When he reached the Palais de

him saying, well how about your

CITY COUNCIL PLAN
GIVEN APPROVAL
Dupont Circle Citizens for
Controlling Body, Subject
to Federation.

The Dupont Circle Citizens Asso-
citation, in session yesterday after
noon at Rauscher'S, approved of the
establishment in Washington of
city council" if such council should
be under the control and subject to
the Federation of Citizens Associa-
tions.
Maj. c. +. Emig, who introduced
the resolution, explained the spirited
discussion which had ensued at
meeting of the Federation of Citizens
Associations Saturday night, and re-
ported that there appeared to be
danger in allowing a city council to
be established without making 1t
amenable to the citizens associations,
which, he said, were recognized as
the founders of public opinion" in
the District. He emphasized that the
proposed council would not take the
place of the federation.
Upon motion of Dr. Newton Baker
the association adopted resolution
which extended the southern boun-
Diary of the Dupont Circle Association
from Nj street to l street. There
after, a motion by DIR. Baker was
adopted placing the association on rec
ord requesting that the south side OF
NJ street between Eighteenth and Nine
teenth be rezoned from second com-
mercial to first commercial.
A proposal by Arthur w. Dunn that
parking against the Dupont Circle
curb be eliminated on account of the
danger TO pedestrians was referred
to the associations committee on
highways.
There was considerable adverse
comment during the meeting against
the erection of the apartment house
at 2100 Massachusetts avenue, and as
running the effect of the avenue is a
highway of fine residences. Among
the critics of this apartment house
We're Miss Bessie Kibby, Mrs. Ar
chibald Hopkins and Mrs. c. ID. Lang
horne.
Maj Emig reported that the secre-
tary of the Board of Education indi-
Gated the matter of including a COM
mercial course in the curriculum at
Western High School had been re-
opened, and the board would receive a
brief setting forth the objections held
by the Dupont Circle Association.
