Rolls into River From Garage
Cause Unexplained.

A $4,000 automobile owned by Capt.
w. S. McClintock, L. S. n. rolled
from a garage at the War College
yesterday afternoon down hill and
into the Potomac River. No one

found who was near at the time or
saw the mishap.
Several mechanics in the garage
awoke to the fact that the runaway
car was in motion only when they
heard it splash into the riyer. Capt
McClintock believes that some one
moved the car after he had left it
and forgot to put on the emergency
brake.
The automobile was raised by a
wrecking crew after about two hours
work. The car was located by Paddy
McNulty, diver summoned from the
Naval Air Station. 1t was found to
have been submerged in Is feet of

WASHINGTON, Dec. 5.-Con-
gresham Noble Johnson, Terre

have the House Flood Control Com

its pending legislation, he said to-
day on his arrival from Indiana.
johnson will not only appear be-
fore the committee, but will en-
deavor to have as many of the In
diana delegation as possible with
him, he said.
"Our problem is smaller than that
of the lower Mississippi valley, but
it is a very real one nevertheless, %
he said. II had one man tell me a
few days ago that he has lost three
crops in the last five years due to
floods In sections Of my district the
farmers Lave virtually quit farm
ing the bottom lands, because Of
the almost certainty that the crops
will be drowned"
johnson also recalled that a re-
port of the army engineers two years
ago expressed the belief that given
the right conditions the Wabash and
its tributaries might cause flood
considerably greater than that of
1918, when millions Of dollars dam
age was done in Indiana.

HOPES OF SOVIET
DASHED BY BRITAIN
Firm English Policy Against
Russia Maintained, In
tervieW Shows.
BY HENRY WOOD
United Press STAFF Correspondent

GENEVA, Dec. 5.-Russia met her
first, and a serious, diplomatic de-
feat here today during a week in
which she had dominated the
League of Nations preparatory COM
mission meeting.
Until the reverse, she had excel
lent prospects of keeping the spot
light during the League council ses-
sion that began this morning.
Maxim M. Litinotr, chief Russian
delegate, had delayed his depar-
ture for Moscow so that he could
see Sir Austen Chamberlain, Brit
ish foreign minister. The two Dip
lomats met, and talked for an hour.
The following communique then was
issued:
IN. Litvinoff having asked Sir
Austen Chamberlain for an inter-
view, a meeting took place at the
Hotel Beau Rivage this afternoon.
The meeting gave occasion for a
frank exchange Of views relative TO
relations between the soviet govern
ment and the British government.
ut was not, however found pos
sible to reach any basis of agree
ment."
The text Of the communicate had
been agreed upon jointly by Lit
vinof and Chamberlain.
1t left no doubt that Chamberlain,
after forcing Litvonoff openly to
seek an interview with him, had
refused to depart from the recent
adamant British policy toward
Russia.
