and William Lee Bailey, both colored,
alleged to have broken into the Rose
Shop, 1928 Connecticut avenue, on
Halloween night and stolen dresses,
coats and furs valued at more than
$4,000, caused them to be held under
IS, 900 bond each in Police Court to-
day to await the action of the grand
Jury, as it had led up to their arrest
several days ago.
Each testified against the other be.
fore Judge Hit and the consequence
was that both were held. Baylor, in
addition. was charged with making an
assault on Bailey on Thanksgiving
day and was sentenced to 60 days on
that count

formation furnished by Bailey, Officer
w. G.. Curtis of the fourth precinct
found IL of the dresses, valued at $85
each. and two coats, valued at $3.50
each. hidden in barrel in garage
belonging to Baylor at 800 Queens

two men, Bailey had gotten the worst
Of 1t and had taken this method to
be revenged.
So far "a dresses and two coats have
been recovered. the other IL dresses
being found behind house in King
man place.

to get glimpse Of the Soviet repre-
sentatives.
The opening session, over which DIR.
Loudon, Minister of the Neither
lands to France, presided, was held
in the celebrated classroom, the huge
windows Of which were broken by a
mob of Communists during Sacco-
VanZetti demonstration.
Newspaper men filled all available
seats. the public, as such. not being
admitted. This evoked criticism from
the wives of the delegates.
The camera offensive was the first
feature of the meeting. The Soviet
leaders smiled affably when photog-
raphers sought them out especially.
DIR. Loudon welcomed the new
comers, mentioning particularly DR..
Aristides de Aguero Bethancourt of
Cuba and w. A. Riddell of Canada.
After Sketching past activities Nf the
commission, DIR. Loudon announced
that in due time the Russians would
be asked whether they would accept
membership on the special committee
on security which is to be created.
Count Won Bernstorff. head of the
German delegation, spoke next, de-
claring that he wished to remove the
misunderstanding that had arisen
from his recent letter to DR.. Loudon.
He said this gave the impression that
he insisted on second reading of the
draft treaty at the present session.
This, he declared, was not his inten-
ton, but that he did think the arrival
OF new members at the commission
meeting justified general discussion
Of disarmament.

MERRILL PROTESTS
"ANGLE" PARKING
Transit Head Says Traffic Is Slowed
on Thirteenth Street Between
E and H.

A protest against the angle parking
on Thirteenth street between e and
II streets was received by the Public
Utilities Commission today from E.
II. Merrill, president of the Wash
ington Rapid Transit Co. A similar
complaint was sent to the commits
sion several days ago by the Capital
Traction Co.
Both of these transportation COM
panies contend that the abolition of
angle parking will relieve traffic con-
gestion and make the thoroughfare
more passable for busses.
There is considerable difficulty In
getting through this territory due to
the parking of automobiles at an
angle. so that they are required to
back out of the parking space, re-
quiring traffic to come to a stop while
the automobile Is being backed out"
said MIR. Merrill.
1.-THE delay and confusion is aug
mented by double parking Of delivery
trucks or private cars behind the
line of vehicles next to the curb. It
is my understanding that the Traffic
Department is in accord with the sug
gestion that angle parking along this
street should be abolished and that
parking should be permitted only
parallel to the curb"

MOVE SEEN TO LIMIT
U. S. Occupation"
Mexican Paper Would Have Pam
American Conference Ban
Imperialism"
By the Associated Press.

MEXICO CITY. November 30.-
The hope that the forthcoming
pan-American conference in Havana
will take up the question Of United
States occupation of Latin-American
countries was expressed editorially
yesterday by the newspaper Ell Uni
versal.
The paper describes this as the
most vital question for Latin Amer
lea which could possibly come be-
fore the conference. The paper de-
sires the conference to adopt a solemn
declaration pledging every member
nation not to occupy the territory
Of another member nation under any
circumstances, not even with the con-
sent Of that nation.
Ell Universal says: obviously, this
pledge would apply almost exclusive
ly to the United States, because what
ever imperialism there is on the
American Continent comes from the
powerful northern Republic. 1t is
easy for nation with power. money
and arms to create the fiction Of con-
sent and to create the fiction OF a
government to give that consent"
Such an agreement would be the
only thing of Importance the confer
ence could accomplish, in the opinion
Of FL Universal. and if the conference
confines itself to social affairs and
insignificant questions it will be OF
little Importance.

SEES BIC PROBLEM
IN FLOOD CONTROL
Most Difficult Issue Ever
Faced by Congress, Sem
ator Tyson Says.
BY the Associated Press.

Control of floods along the Missis-
sippi River is the greatest problem
ever faced by the United States in
time Of peace, Senator Tyson, Demo
crat, Tennessee, today told the House
flood control committee. He urged that
Congress should make possible gen.
eral and effective f1ood-prevention pro-
gram. financed solely from the ma.
tional Treasury.
Even if $500. .o0o, 900 is required. he
said, no delay should be caused by
requiring residents who suffered losses
along the Mississippi to contribute
toward protective works, and that suf-
ficient funds should be supplied by
Congress-. even il it strains national
resources.
Wants Problem Properly Handled.
'If we are going to handle this prob
lem. let us do 1t right" he added. Il
believe the plan should be left to COM
petent engineers. The two essentials
are a definite and effective plan and
appropriation by the United States
Government of enough money to
carry that plan out"
Only the Civil and World Wars
were of more serious Importance TO
the country in years since the Lou1sf-
recounted failures of past efforts to
control the Mississippi and said that
"the disastrous food Of 1927 now
makes it necessary for us to settle the
problem for once and all time" He
estimated recent flood damage in Ten
nessee alone at $6,000,000.
Senator Caraway's Views.
Political ambition or pride should
not hinder flood relief, Senator Cara
way, Democrat, Arkansas, warned the
committee, in expressing a hope that
an agreement on flood legislation will
be possible without 20 or more bills
being introduced and defended. The
political difficulties of flood prevention
might prove secondary only to the en-
gineering difficulties, he added.
He agreed with Senator Tyson that
food control is national responsible
ity, and said that he did not consider
local contributions justified, because 1t
is the Governments duty to protect
it's citizens.
Caraway praised Secretary Hoover
for his work in the Mississippi flood
area, saying it's benefits and the en-
couragement he gave the people were
inestimable.

APARTMENT INTRUDER
PUT TO FLIGHT BY MAID
Suspect Escapes Empty Handed
When Woman Goes to
Summon Help.

Surprised by colored maid after
he had entered an apartment at 2124
P street early this afternoon, an uni
Identified intruder escaped as the maid
ran for help. leaving the door open.
Within a few minutes after the dis
covery of the man police reserves
from the third precinct and head
quarters detectives sent by Maj. Ed
win B. Hesse. superintendent of po.
lice, were on the scene, but could find
no trace of the suspect. The apart
ment is leased by Miss Sarah B. Cor.
son and Miss Gallyne Chapman,
trained nurses, who were out when
the maid, Mrs. Hattie Lawson, made
her discovery. She said that she
came to the apartment to deliver
some laundry and as she opened the
door saw a man standing in the
apartment. She ran and called her
husband, William Lawson, the jani-
tor of the apartment, who notified
police.
The man made his escape evidently
through the door, which the maid left
open as she ran to give the alarm,
as all of the apartment windows were
locked on the inside. The maid could
not tell whether the man was white
or colored. Nothing appeared to have
been disturbed in the apartment.
