NEW YORK, NJ. ", May l9.-W. Il.
ID. Stokes, financier and hotel owner.
died this morning in his home ut 23s
West 73rd street.
Mr.. Stokes was long In the public
eye because Of the sensational di-
vorcc suit brought against him by his
wife, Helen Elwood Stokes. He was
73 years Of age.
Death was due 10 double pneu-
monia- He had been iii for only a

The history Of William Earle Dodge

His Marital career. consisting of
two marriages. one divorce and an
unsuccessful attempt for five years

REACHACCORD
NARMS MEET
Only Peace Time Arms
Can Be Limited,
is Agreement

GENEVA, May 19.--Only peace
time armaments can be limited BY
any conference Of nations. This pro-
visional agreement was reached at
today's session Of the preparatory
disarmament commission, which de-
cided that IL was impracticablc at
the present moment TO think Of re-
ducing the ultimate war strength Of
countries
GIN In ratifying this conclusion, how
ever. the commission agreed to a
significant reservation by VI. Paul
Boncour Of France. This was to the
effect that, when the Subcommittee
frames the exact formula, il must
recognize that estimated reductions
in peace time armaments should
take into account the military. eco
nomic and geographical factors upon
which the war time powers depend
and also the rapidity with which as
sistaEce could DC afforded to state
if attacked.
Thus the admission is made at the
very outset Of the Geneva delibera-
tions that reduction Of armament is
accordingly complicated problem
which cannot be solved in terms OF
numbers OF troops and guns. Not
only economic and population factors
must be taken into consideration, but
also, in the opinion Of France and
some otrer nations, concrete rcduc-
tions must depend to considerable
degree on the extent Of the effective
aid which can be rushed to an at
tackled state through operation Of a
scheme of mutual assistance.

the matter of law enforcement
and in an economic way" MIR.
Vasquez said Wedne S d a y
morning.
Mr.. Vasquez said that arrange
ments already have been made
through Portes Gil, governor Of the
Mexican state of Tamaulipas, for the
colonization of 10000 acres Of land
20 miles from Victoria on the way
to Tampico and $1,000 acres of irri-
gated land on the south of Victoria,
capital Of the state. About 500 fam
lilies, comprising about half the Mex
Jean population of Cameron and
Willacy counties. the two under the
jurisdiction of Mr.. vasquez, will be
settled in these separate colonies
under the most reasonable terms
ever made by the Mexican govern
ment. The colonists will not be
asked to make even an initial pay
ment. taking possession Of Is to 80
1cres of land for each family and
making annual payments over a
period Of about 20 years. The land
Is to be tax free during this time.
Every possible advantage that can
bE given these people 60 induce them
TO return to Mexico is being prom
iscd.
The State Of Tamaulipas Is pre-
pairing to vote big bond issue for
the purpose of irrigating the $1,000
acre tract south Of Victoria. The
other tract, comprising about 20.-
900 acres. will not need irrigation,
the mean average rainfall being in
fallibly enough to raise a crop, Mr..
vasquez stated. The crop raised will
be very similar to the ones being
raised in the Lower Rio Grande Val
ley. Vegetables will be raised dur
ing the early part of the year and
cotton later in the same way that
crops are rotated in the Valley.
There already are many families of
American colonists in Tamaulipas in
what is known as the Colonia Con-
zales. They have engaged success
fully in truck farming during the
year and a half they have been there
and report that the demand for veg
etablcs Is greater than they can sup
ply. Mr.. Vasquez points out that tho
colonists from the Valley will be able
to market their crops in Victoria to
be resold later throughout the en-
tire interior of Mexico.
When the exodus begins here next
fall the Mexican families will be per-
mitted to take their implements,
horses, mules and other possessions

nit Of arrangements already COM
