PARIS, April 2S.-The Washington
naval accords, negotiated by Premier
BRAND in 1921 and signed under the
premiership of M. Poincare in 1922,
are still awaiting the ratification of
French Parliament. The Poincare
cabinet held office for two years after
the bills calling for their ratification
were introduced in the French cham
ber: general elections have taken
place, the Herriot cabinet endured for
10 months and, with the momentous
financial problems now confronting
the new Painleve ministry, it appears
unlikely that Parliament will be
called upon to discuss these accords
for some time to come. Their pres
ent status is unknown beyond the fact
that they have been before the for
eign relations committee of the cham
ber since the middle of 1922.
"Pigeonholed" is the somewhat un-
dignified term used in America Which,
although it does not appear in the
dictionary sanctioned by the French
Academy, may best describe the fate
of the acCordS.
Short History Given.
The following is a short history of
the accords, as far as France Is con-
cerned. since NJ. Albert Sarraut, who
replaced Premier BRAND at the head
of the French delegation. returned to
Paris in the Spring of 1922.
The treaty concerning the ''limita-
ton of naval armamentS" signed at
Washington February 6, 1922, was
turned over to the committee on for-
eign affairs in March, 1922. Deputy
Guernier was intruSted with the task
of preparing a report on the treaty
and making a recommendation as TO
its ratification. He recommended
that "the government be authorized
to ratify, effective until December 81,
1886, the treaty signed at Washing
ton between. the United States of
America, the British empire, France,
Italy and Japan limiting naval arma-
mentS."
A bill bearing the signature of
President Alexandra Millerand and
presented by Premier Poincare,
Finance Minister De Lasteyrie, Naval
Minister Raiberti, War Minister Ma
ginot and Minister of Public Works
LIE Trocquer, calling for the ratifica-
ton of the treaty, was then submit
ted to Parliament. 1t was again re-
ferred to the committee on foreign
relations. Since then it has not been
mentioned again in public discussion,
and nothing has been heard of it in
committee.
Reported i'm January, 1923.
The treaty concerning possessions
and inSular dominions in the Far
East" signed December IS, 1921, has
had a career similar to the above.
Deputy Raynaldy, who has since been
minister of commerce in the Herriot
cabinet, made a report to the com
mittee recommending its ratification
This was January %, 1923.
A bill subsequently was introduced
by the Poincare government calling
for prompt ratification. 1t was re-

ENTA|LED FUTURES
H|TBY UNION HEAD
Typographical Leader Sees
Prosperity in Earning,
Then Spending.
By the Associated Press.

-" the Associated Press.
INDIANAPOLIS, May 16.-General
prosperity will be promoted by free
circulation of money, provided the
money is earned before being spent, is;
a conclusion reached by James NJ.
nynch, president of the international
typographical Union, after a study
VI uata gathered by the union in an
investigation of living costs. Mr..
Lynch recently sounded a warning to
workers against mortgaging their fu-
tare too heavily.
Results of our investigation. said
hf. Lynch, lead 10 the conviction
tnat elimination of excessive taxation
ana lnJudfcious installment-plan mer-
chandlSing would clear the way for
prosperity of a permanent character
ana vastly improved standard CT
living"
In commenting upon the effect of
taxation, Mr. Lynch expressed the
opinion that high taxes levied for
State, County and Municipal purposes
constitute the most difficult obstacle in
the path of Americas enjoyment of
general prosperity.
Lauds Lord Proposal.
MIR. Lynch indorsed the recent pro-
posal of Brig. Gen. Herbert NJ Lord,
Federal budget director, for the for
ton on local taxation problems.
EXtravagance in the conduct of the
National Government is deplorable,' y
said Mr.. Lynch. but in consideration
of governmental expense the Federal
unit frequently comes in for too large
a share of the blame. The budget for
the coming year carries about S5l4,-
100000 for Federal Government ac-
tiYities. exclusive. of the items for
debt, interest and retirement, the
Army and Navy. the Veterans Bu
reau,, pensions, taxation refunds and
the postal service. Friends of the
budgetmakers point out that this is
but 20 per cent greater than the cost
of running the city of New York.
There is still room for the prac-
tlce of greater economy in the mul-
tifarious activities of the Federal Gov
ernment, even to the point of elimi-
mating some of the useless bureaus,
but the factor in the general situation
that is being neglected centerS in the
spending procivitieS of the State,
county and municipal taxing units.
Bills Include Taxes.
THE bills that must be footed by
the ultimate consumer include the
added charges for taxes in every in
stance, whether they be for rent, mer-
chandise, utility Service, transporta-
uon or professional aid. The high
cost of government, Joined with the
alarming increase of costly credit buy
ing of the individual, goes long way
toward defeating any improvement in
the national living standard due to
higher wages.
Eccentric personal economies, such
as have been attributed, enormously,
mo- doubt, to President Coolidge, are
not calculated to benefit the country
for the reason that our purchasing
power is expended almost wholly
within our own borders. Free circu-
lation of money will promote general
prosperity. provided the money is earn
ed before being spent. Results of our
Investigation lead to the conviction
that elimination of excessive taxation
and injudicious installment-plan mer-
chandising would clear the way for
prosperity of permanent character
and a vastly improved standard of liv-
ing"

Anniversary of Civil War Bat
tle-Elect Officers.

New Market cadets of the Virginia
Military Institute were extolled at the
annual dinner of the local alumni as
sociation last night at the Army and
Navy Club, which marked the sixty
first anniversary of the famous battle
of the Civil War, where students, all
in their early teens, were thrown into
action and stemmed the onrush OF the
picked Federal troops.
Principal among the speakers was
former Senator Charles j. Faulkner or
West Virginia, survivor OF the
". NJ T. battalion. Mr.. Faulkner
praised the institute, stating that the
greatest lesson learned there was that
of discipline and obedience. He point
ed out that one-tenth of the Confed-
crate officers were V. Nj. l. men, and
that during the World War more than
1000 institute men were enrolled for
the service of their country.
Other speakers were Maj. Gen.

WITH TOBACCO BOARD
Washington Attorney Reelected
Director by National Association
in Session at New Willard.

II. II. Shelton, Washington attor-
ney, was reelected a member of the
board of directors of the Tobacco
Merchants Association of the United
States at the closing session of the
fourth national convention of the
organization here yesterday at the
Willard Hotel.
Resolutions were adopted indorsing
the tax reduction policy of President
Coolidge and protesting against the
imposition of the State sales taxes on
tobacco products and declaring that
discrimination is being shown against
American tobacco products in some
foreign countries and some American
territories.
I'VE believe that in times of peace,
normalcy and prosperity, such as our
country Is now happily enjoying, tax
alton, both direct and indirect, ought
to be reduced to the very minimum

Poincare government in May, 1928,

During the tenure of office of Min

Emile Borel, the new minister of

preached concerning his policy on the
