Democratic leaders from the Eastern

support to the ticket when Gov Smith
Is nominated.
Il is an open secret that there has al

prominence behind Woodrow Wilson.

been unfriendly to the Smith candi-

Smith But II anything was needed to
drive the reluctant WilSonianS into the
arms of Gov. Smith it was the CAM
paign waged by Senator Reed.
Reports that Senator Reed was at
the head of a bloc trying to develop
a one-third strength sufficient to veto
the Smith nomination served TO revive
the feeling that the Wilson people have
had for some time. that as between
Senator Reed and a wet candidate
like Gov. Smith. they preferred to re-
gard the prohibition issue as secondary.

ton In favor Of rigid enforcement.

SAYS GIBSON IS
MAN RESPONSIBLE
BRAND Declares He Urged Naval
Accord at League

Paris, Dec. S R-Aristide BRAND,
foreign minister, holds that Hugh
Gibson. L. S. ambassador to Belgi-
UNI was responsible for the Anglo
French naval accord which the
United States did not approve and
which has been attacked by news
papers and statesmen in both Great
Britain and the United States.
The foreign minister, reviewing
Frances foreign affairs in the cham
Der of deputies. said that Mr.. Gibson
as delegate to the Geneva disarma-
ment conference invited other par
ties represented there to reach an un-
derstanding between themselves.
Great Britain and France did this
and communicated the agreement
they reached to the United States
and all other allies.
Mr.. BRAND asked "how then can
France be taxed with militarism and
imperialistic designs because of an
agreement reached in full accord
with her allies and associates and
registered with the league of ma
tons"
Reads statistics
The foreign minister read statistics
purporting to show that all great ma
tons of the world. NOTABLY the
United States" were spending more
On naval ornaments than France.
Referring to the pact for renun-
citation of war initiated by himself
and Secretary Kellogg, NJ. BRAND
said that it offered better guarantees
of eace than its opponents granted
it. The pact, he said, marked a
halt in the career of all wars and
creates an atmosphere of real
peace" He continued:
"When fifty or more nations
solemnly ratify and sign a document
which considers war a crime, it is
not vain gesture.
"Until now war was legal insti-
tuition, today it is outlawed as a
crime
The pact, he added. might posi-
bly, be torn up by some nation. But
he saw that that nation would be
placed in a grave situation toward
the other signatories and terrible
catastrophes would be invited"

the district attorney said, that
Rothstein was lured to the Park
Central hotel and then killed in cold
