Three Schools Under Construction
 Will Not Be Ready for Fall Term;
 Crowded Conditions Will Continue
Delays Block Work At Lincoln and Roosevelt Schools
 and Addition to Nathan Hale Junior High

lof Main and East Main streets. The sale must be held up until the new Ischool is ready.
 Mir. Halloran said the Lincoln school on Steele street will not be completed on schedule time. The reason is due, he said. to unforeseen obstacles, and the architect, Walter P. Crabtree. will not be held to the schedule date. The department is hopeful of completion of the work by October but it is probable that it will not be ready until Novem- Der l.
 The old Lincoln school was also school was built, but since there is a delay in this section. the school de- partment will have to hold title un- til the new Lincoln school is com pleted. In the meantime the old school will take care of the enroll ment of the section.
 The Roosevelt school will not be ready for the opening of school in September. but will probably be completed by the latter part of that month, Architect Henry Ludorf an- nounced this morning. This will be the first of the three schools to be completed. Work on the structure which is being built on land be- tween Day and Austin streets, has been progressing rapidly in the past few months. The delay in complet- ing this school will make necessary an overcrowding of the Smith and Chamberlain schools.
New Britain herald., 1926-07-16

Unforeseen obstacles have devel- oped in the programs set by three architects who are in charge of new schools scheduled to be opened in
 the fall with the result that much difficulty will be experienced by the school department in caring for
 overcrowded enrollments in three sections of the city.
 The Nathan Hale Junior High lschool addition, the construction of which began only month ago, and which was to be rushed through for the opening of school in September, will not be ready at that time. Architect Max J. Unkelbach an- nounced this morning that the school will not be ready for occupancy until November l.
 When questioned this morning concerning the departments plans in this matter, Chairman Joseph NJ. Halloran of the school accommoda- tions committee said the junior high school children in the northern sec tion of the city will have to continue at the Elihu Burritt school which was to have been made over into an elementary school when the Nathan Hale school was completed. He said it is probable that the old Burritt school will be called upon to care for an overflow from the main plant on North street.
 This action will make it necessary to revise plans to sell the old Bur ritt school which is on the corner

MAY NOT HOLD KEOGH
 ON COUNT OF PERJURY
Prosecutor Woods Refuses to Issue Warrant on
 This Charge

Prosecuting Attorney Joseph G. Woods has refused to issue war rant charging Harry P. Keogh of 109 North street with perjury, he said today. which, in view of the state ment of Detective Sergeant w. P, McCue that developments of the past few days indicate that Keogh is not as seriously involved in the alleged operations of a gang of au- tomobile thieves about the state as was thought, has given rise to the belief in police circles that Keogh will not be prosecuted.
 Sergeant McCue said today that State Officer Harrison, who is in charge of the investigation that led to Keogh's arrest, is expected here and at a conference with him, de- cision will probably be made as to the charge to be recommended 10 the prosecuting attorney. When keogh was arrested, the police said lie was an accomplice of two men who are under arrest for alleged thefts of automobiles but 1t was not known to what extent he was im- plicated.
 The proposed perjury charge was to be based on Keogh's sworn state- ment that he was the owner of a roadster, bought by Mrs, Anna NJ. O'Brien and financed through the Hartford Finance Co. The police contendet that Keogh was not the owner because the car had not been paid for by Mrs. Anna o'Brlen and therefore she was without the right to give 1t to him.

 Receiving reporter for the Asso- ciated Press in the Damascus mili- tary prison on June IS, Doty de- clared his ''momentary desertion" was caused not by cowardice but by acute homrsickness.

WAR ADVANCES CANCELLED
American Secretary Aroused By Public Clamor Asserts American Agreement Is More Generous Than That of Other Debtors.

Washington, July Is Pl-Aroused by public comparison of Frances debt settlement with England and with this country, Secretary Mellon, in a formal statement today declared mo other creditor of France has accorded such generous treatment" i" as has America.
 In effect, Mir. Mellon said after re- viewing the debts, the settlement and the interest, America has can celled the obligations of France for all advances during the war, and France in the Mellon-B Berger agree ment has undertaken only to repay the advances and obligations subse- quent to the armistice. No other creditor of France has accorded such generous treatment"
 Oppose Modification
 The statement, following hints in reports from Paris that Finance Minister Caillaux might seek modi- ticatlon of the American agreement as a result of terms received from England was regarded by officials as showing definite opposition to such a modification.
 Mr. Mellon, who is chairman of the American debt commission is sued a statement just prior 10 his departure for a vacation in Europe and because of what he described as the erroneous comparisons of the American press of the British French settlement and the Ameri- French settlement.
 Along Different Lines
 "The settlement of the French ob- ligation to America" MT. Mellon said, has been made along some what different lines from the set clement of French obligations to Great Britain. With the British ranking advances and commercial obligations for war stocks have been treated separately from the war debt proper. If, however, we compare the settlement of all of Frances in-
