DEMOCRATS SEEK
ISLE OF PINES VOTE
Decide, Also, on Action on
World Court Next Session
or Now, if G. o. P. Wishes.

Senate Democrats, meeting today TO
adopt a policy to be followed in the
special session of that body, agreed to
press for an early vote on the Isle of
Pines treaty, and to insist on making
the World Court question a special
order early in the next Congress.
1t was agreed that the Democrats
should cooperate il the Republican
majority decided to bring the court
question up at this session. The
Lausanne treaty with Turkey was not
discussed.
After the conference, Senator Rob-
inson of Arkansas, the Democratic
loader, issued the following state
ment:
with respect to the World Court,
II developed that the overwhelming g
sentiment of the conference was in
favor of the World Court and it was
agred that the minority should ini-
tiate nothing that would occasion
delay in acting upon the World Court,
but should the ma jority express a de-
sire or intention to consider the mat
ter at this special session the mi
nority would agree to cooperate.
In the event that the majority
should take no action whatsoever on
the World Court, the minority Will in
sist upon making II special order for
some early date in the next regular
session"
The World Court question also came
before Senate Republicans in a party
conference held simultaneously with
that of the Democrats, but it was
decided to defer action until the re-
suit of the Democratic meeting could
be learned.

BERLIN, March Frau Ebert,

The family of the former Presf-

Now, while her grief is still
fresh, Frau Ebert and her son Karl,

Many Germans are protesting

Gutzon Borglum, formerly directing
sculptor of the Stone Mountain Con-

he would confer tomorrow with a

The sculptor did not give the per-

which has charge of the memorial.
Neither did the sculptor state where
the conference would take place. He
made the announcement just before

Peace Plan Goes Beyond Aim
of League, Says Chamber
lain, at Geneva.
DOMINIONS AND INDIA
UNABLE TO ACCEPT IT
Absence of U. S. From World Or
ganization Found Increasing Diff
culties of Task.
BY the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
GENEVA, March 12.-Speaking to a
chamber so closely packed that there
was scarcely breathing space, Austen
Chamberlain, British secretary for
foreign affairs. delivered his long
heralded discourse on the Geneva
protocol for security and disarma- :
ment before the Council of the League
of Nations today.
Foreign Minister Benes of Czecho-
slovakia opened the session by an
nouncing> that at the conclusion of the
discussion he would introduce a reso-
luton concerning the protocol.
One of the most important features
of Mr.. Chamberlain's address, which
outlined the British objections to the
protocol, was added by him at the
last minute. 1t was that telegraphic
communication with the British do
minions and India showed that Cam
ada, Australia, New Zealand, the
Union of South Africa and India were
also unable to accept the protocol.
He said he was not yet in possession
of the views of the Irish Free State.
Sympathy with objects.
After emphas sizing the sympathy
that existed throughout the British
empire with any effort to improve the
international machinery for world
peace, Mr.. Chamberlain said that sue
cessive administrations in Great Brit
ain, with the full approval of the self
governing dominions, not only had In
theory favored arbitration, which was
one of the features of the protocol,
but had practiced IL. They had not
only preached disarmament. but had
actually disarmed to the limit OF ma
tional safety They had taken full
share in creating and supporting the
League of Nations and the Permanent
Court of International Justice, while
the immense sacrifices they had made
in the cause of general security were
matters of recent history.
II, therefore, continued Mr.. Cham
berlain, after consulting her domin-
Ions and India. England saw insuper-
able objections to signing and ratify-
ing the protocol in it's present shape,
this was not because she felt her
self out of harmony with the pur-
poses the protocol was intended to
serve or was opposed in principle to
plans for clarifying the meaning of
the League of Nations covenant or
strengthening its provisions.
Amendment and Interpretation may
in themselves be desirable" added the
British foreign secretary, but his
majesty's government cannot believe
that the protocol as it stands pro-
vides a suitable method of attempt
ing that task"
Objections Are Detailed.
After detailing the British objec-
tions to the protocol, Mr.. Chamber
lain said that since the general pro-
visions of the covenant could not be
stiffened with advantage. and since
"the extreme cases" with which the
league might have to deal PROBABLY
would affect certain nations or groups
of nations more than others. the

RICH CONTRACTOR
COMMITS SUICIDE
E. A. Wickham, Millionaire
Builder of War Canton
ments, Hangs Himself.
By the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Iress
COUNCIL BLUFFS, Iowa, March u.
The body of E. A. Wickham, 5S,
millionaire contractor and builder of
cantonments during the
war, was found late last night hang
ing by a rope fastened to the cell
ing of an unused basement room in
his home here.
1t is believed Mr.. Wickham had
been dead since Monday afternoon,
the last time he was seen alive.
The home of the contractor was
thoroughly searched when his disap
pearance was discovered, but no at
tempt was made to enter the room
where the body was found and which
was locked, until last night.
Mr. Wickham suffered a nervous
breakdown nearly year ago. Last
Christmas eve the Wickham family
were in an automobile accident that
resulted in the death of Mrs. Wick
ham and serious injuries to the con-
tractor.
1t is thought that i'll health and
brooding over the loss of his wife
caused him to take his life.

Communists Absent From
Ceremony-ImpartiaI Ad-
miniStration Is Promised.
By the Associated Press.

BERLIN, March 12.-Dr. Walter
Simons took the oath today as acting
President of the German Republic to
succeed the late Friedrich Ebert. Like
Herr Ebert, DR.. Simons did not add
the so help me God,' which Is left
optional in the oath as prescribed by
the constitution.
The ceremony took place in the
Reichstag and the oath was admins
tered after a brief welcoming address
by the Reichstag president, Herr
Loebe.
Contrary to expectation, the Com
munists failed to create a scene, but
they refrained from attending the
ceremony and many benches on the
extreme right of the chamber were
also empty.
The acting president, in a short
speech, promised to hand over the
office unsullied to his successor after
administering 1t with impartiality.
He spoke feelinsly of his predecessor,
whose fidelity he intended to emu
late.
