GENEVA. August 7.--Brazil's def
mite withdrawal from the League Of
Nations disarmament pOurparlerS
and realization that aircraft are i'm
possible of limitation or control 50
far as disa rmam is concerned were
the two outstanding developments of
the last weeks deliberations of the
arms subcOmmissions.
The general agreement that air.
craft were not suitable for control
was expected because of commercial
aspects. While the Brazilians explain
their action as necessary because OF
the political situation,' il is believed
they can be persuaded to take part
in the plenary sessions in October.
Their maneuver is regarded as an
effort to weaken the leagues policy
of denying permanent council seats
to Brazil and Spain.
Another Adjournment Seen.
It is apparent the subcommittee

the troublesome naval question with

the assembly meets in September. SO
another adjournment is expected to be
taken during the meetings of the
assembly and the World Court, be-
cause the secretarial staff Is needed
for these sessions.
Tentatively the subcommittee have
completed half their work, having adj
vanced we'll into discussion of the
fourth item of the agenda: Are there
any ornaments. and if SO what,
which are only capable for defensive
purposes
1t becomes increasingly evident
that the likeliest method of obtaining
naval disarmament or limitation,
either within or without the frame
work of the Geneva movement, lies in
the formation of a combination COM
posed of the United States, Great
Britain. France, italy and japan.
Latin Bloc Steadfast.
The Latin bloc dominated by France
has prevented so far the carrying out
of the ideas Of the great naval powers.
Because of Englands refusal to limit
cruisers while France and Italy keep
their large submarine fleets in the
Mediterra mean. the bloc probably will
be able to continue to do SO.
There are repeated statements that
Britain is disappointed because the
United States shows no disposition to
use economic pressure To persuade
Italy and France to reduce their sub
mersible armament. The White
House spokesman's reiteration Of the
United States sincere cooperation"
with league members has been re-
ceived with qualification by the Latin
bloc. and is understood to have in
creased British opposition to a tri-
partite conference among America,
Japan and Britain.

without waiting to say farewell to
Franklin? Or left the day Don had
gone to New York City? If she had
only done this or that, everything
might have been different.
Wracked with remorse, she
achieved no surcease to narrowing
self-reproach. How her mother must
despise her! Yet she had taken her
into her arms. How could she have

the touch of murderer?
Step by step she went over her

Henderson had warned her. He had
said she would burn her fingers and
nothing could stop her. But who had
dreamed what wholesale destruc,

cause? Three lives crashing about
her! Why shouldn't she have been
permitted to destroy herself without
involving any one else?
Toward dawn she fell into ex.

Mrs. Saltwater was there, and Sid

Sonia was an outcast among them,

to see her father lying in that quiet

She stood behind the open grave,

Vera's broken sobbing, but did not

Anna stretched a protecting hand to
her, drawing her close Only then
did Sonia feel that she had a right
to cry.
They returned to a strangely
empty house, Strengthened by kind
heated neighbors into unfamiliar
orderliness. Vera explained that her
family needed her. She must go
home. She added. 'You haven't
seen the baby, Sonia. You'd better
come over tomorrow"
Sonia knew she was trying to be
kind. Her sister had committed an
objectionable sin, but she would do
her best to ignore it. Nothing
could conceal the hidden reproaches

was so consciously condescending
that Sonia knew the breach would
soon be widened into a chasm.
She was glad to be alone with
her mother. She ran to help her
with her heavy coat. She cried
Mother, let me make some hot

But Anna shook her head, saying

Sonia. braced herself. Anything
her mother said would be true. She
must admit the justification of any
charge. But she was surprised when
Anna repeated her words of the
night before.
