POLICE INFORMER
is SENT TO PRISON
John Walker, Colored, Is Given
Seven Years and Half on
Perjury Charge.

John Walker, alias John T. waters,
colored. was sentenced today to serve
seven years and six months in the PEN
itentiary by Chief Justice Walter /.
Mccoy, criminal division on two
charges Of perjury.
Walker, a police informer, was con-
victed by a jury Of having perjured
himself in swearing to an affidavit
that he had bought liquor from q
woman called Susie, at the home OF
Rosie Carroll, GA Brewers court north
east, before United States Commission
er Needham @. Turnage, March 26, last.
Walker took the stand and still main
tanned that he had bought liquor in
the place.
When the guilty verdict was returned
Assistant United States Attorney Wal
ter M. Shea called the courts attention
to the fact that another indictment
charging that Walker had perjured
himself March 81 in swearing that he
had bought liquor at 1243 Fourth street
northwest, was pending. Walker
pleaded guilty to this charge.
"You perjured yourself on the wit
ness stand as before Commissioners
Turnage," said the Chief Justice IN
sentencing Walker, and II you had come
IN and pleaded guilty, as you are, you
would have seen the sunshine and the
light of day outside the penitentiary
much sooner than you are going to. !
sentence you to serve I'VE years on one
charge and two years and six months
on the other, to run consecutively,"
said the Chief Justice.

NAVAL ACCORD
HOPE INDICATED
President Sees Sole Advan.
tage in Franco. British Will.
ingness to Change Pact.

The only advantage President Cool
idge can see to the cause of naval dis
armament as result Of the Franco
British naval agreement is the indica-
ton on the part of the two latter cOun-
tries Of their willingness to change
their agreement II. subsequent develop
ments make 1t advisable.
The President looks upon this AS the
only encouraging part of the pact, and
inasnuch as the United States and
Italy and Japan are not in accord with
the agreement already arrived at by the
French and British, he thinks 1t posi-
BILE that something may be worked out
later on that Will meet with greater
accord.
According to Mr.. Coolidges viewpoint
probably very little progress In the mat
ter Of future naval disarmament has
been made as q result Of the French
and English agreement, 50 far as the
terms Of the agreement themselves are
concerned.
The President was represented a.
saying that this Government has not
been officially advised as to the detailed
terms Of the English French agreement
which have been published, and that he
doubts If 1t would be helpful for this
country to discuss them, until this Gov
eminent has been advised Of the terms.
The President also was represented as
feeling that as the situation has devel.
oped he considers 1t doubtful II the
powers would be able to reach any fur
ther naval agreement before 1881.

Of Gov. Smith. The newspaper article
had made frequent references to the
