APPEASED
IN ARMAMENT ROW
Pick Up Papers and Threaten
to Leave Naval Affairs
Subcommittee.


GENEVA. June o6.--The threat hy
France to bolt the subcommittee on
naval affairs gave a. new sensational
twist to the disa r1nament discussions
today. Admiral de Jeanne and his
French colleagues even went so far
as to gather up their documents pre-
paratorv to leaving the League of
Nations room where the sessions We're
held. but in the end everything was
ironed out smoothly, because the
French got what they wanted.
The incident arose during a discus
sion on the age of warships: 1t was
really clash between the French
and British experts. BY a unanimous
vote the naval experts had accepted
the French proposal that there
seemed no doubt that the effective
value of the tonnage of naval arma,
ments. generally speaking, decreased
with age.

British Motion Wins.

The British then moved that As age
was one of the factors which would
inevitably be taken into conSidera ton
in any standard of comparison be
tween navieS. all discussion of the
question of age should he closed. or
at least deferred. until the full mill
tary committee was ready TO take mp
the problem of the limitation of arma-
ments and met hods of limitation. The
British motion was adopted.
At this juncture the French intro
duced another proposal. as.to whether
from a technical standpoint ii was
possible to set up q standard for
comparison Of naval ornaments with
out supplementing il with standard
of comparison of tonnage by the
method of measuring the age of such
ornaments.
The British and some other experts
argued that the proposal was ont of
order since the age discussion was
closed. The French, however. in
sisted. asserting that they would with
draw from the committee unless
vote was taken, and make separate
report to the main military com
mittee.
French Proposal Defeated.
To prevent a possible rupture the
chairman put the French proposal to
a vote, and it was decisively defeated as
the French wished it to be. Twelve
nations voted in the negative and
only one, the United States, voted
affirmatively. Six countries abstained.
The American delegation explained
it's affirmative vote by saying that it
believed it was possible to set up
standard of comparison without pro-
viding a method of measuring the age
of arma ments. Age, the Americans
argued. could not he considered as
standard of comparison of the
strength of navies, hut should he
taken into consideration in a discus
sion of any standard of measurement
of fleets.
Addressing the military suhcom-
mittee, Mai. Gen. Nolan entered a
reservation in behalf of the American
delegation concerning the action Of
the committee yesterday In deciding
that war material was not a primary
and practical standard for measuring
land ornaments. Gen. Nolan ex
planned that the Americans believed
that any determination of military
strength should include both per-
sonnet and material, although he ad
mitted that in general personnel was
of first Importance.

THE EVENING STORY

AS hard to find as a job. There was
'one near the business district. but it
was dark and stuffy. the doors about
the place were almost unbearable. but
after another day Virginia became
alarmed and moved to it.
Honolulu then did not present so
charming an appearance. Her one
window overlooked an alley. Roar of
traffic kept her sleepless for most of
the night. Added to that was the
food she was eating. BY the time two
more weeks had vanished even the
smile had left Virginia's face and her
cheeks were sunken. Her shoes were
getting shabby from so much walk
ing and her feet ached continually.
Virginia wanted TO scream her ter
rible need she wanted TO plead for
the right to work. But she only
turned and went out again.
She walked on and on In the boil
ing sun. She didn't know how FAR
she had gone when wild scream
sounded In her ears. She turned ana

A grim. tight Tipped man was grind

Virginia knew nothing more until
she opened her eyes in a cool. white
room She didn't care TO think. :
her mind and body both seemed
yripped IN a curious stupor. One
grm scented large and helpless beside
her.

Virginia lifted the lid off the box,
