FRANCE SEES NEW
POLICY IN HOOVER
Presidential Change Here
Held important Factor to
Europe.
BY GERvMLE REACHE.

BY Cable 70 Tho star.
PARIS, June l6.--Just at time
when America seems to be pointing TO-
ward re-shapins Of her foreign policy,
with a new President due to be in
augurated next March, European in
dustrialists have come forward this
week with some novel ideas on the
subject OF politico-economic alliances.
The interest OF Frenchmen was dI-
vided this week chiefly between the r.
publican convention at Kansas City
and the question of stabilization Of the
franc. A third topic that attracted at
tention grew out Of the proposal By Ar
mold Eichberg, German manufacturer
writing in the Vossische Zeitung, that
a political alliance of France, Germany
and Belgium be formed, based on an
entente between the principal indus
tries Of the three countries.
See Change In Hoover.
AS for stabilization of the franc. this
will be effected before the end of tlle
month. After the franc is stabilized,
money rates are expected 10 decline
here and France again will begin TO ex-
port her surplus wealth to foreign
markets.
The Kansas City convention mas
elected large amount of commen.
from the French press. Generally 1t is
agreed that If Herbert Hoover falls
heir to the Coolidge regime. the for
eign policies of the new President will
show some degree Of change from those
OF his predecessor. In any develop
ments in this direction. the French
have a consuming interest. realizing
that any revision of Americas foreign
policy will inevitably affect Europe and
especially France.
President Coolidge's latest speech has
caused general rejoicing here at the
prospect OF an early agreement on the
Kellogg proposal for outlawing war
Some sanguine observers 90 so far rs
to see in the American attitude ces-
ture toward rapproaehment with the
League Of Nations.
Look Beyond League.
European industrialists. like Herr
Rechberg. now are beginning to look
beyond the League of Nations and TO
predict that the future peace of the
world will be based on political alli-
ances which have been cemented by
agreements between the industries Of
! the big powers. The captains Of indus
try, 1t is held, will take the places OF
the diplomats and statesmen.
Herr Rechberg's specific proposal is
| for an industrial entente among France.
Germany and Belgium. which would
effect a defensive military alliance.
The steel n1agnates are said to be the
! sponsors Of the plan. Naturally such
project sounds fantastic at this time,
when reparations problems and the
Rhineland occupation still are fore
most in public discussions in both
Germany and France. But there Is
good common sense back of the prsn-
cpies expounded by Herr Rechberg. for
If carried far enough this idea could
well stimulate closer union of the
various states of Europe. It Is at least
gratifying to note that business ard
| financial leaders are more and more
deyoting themselves TO solving the per-
picking questions connected with a
Franco-German Impeachment.

 OIL HEARING
Son-in-Law of Fall Told to Appear Before Sen
 ate Committee

WASHINGTON. Jan. 20.-M T. Everhart, banker and son-in- law of former Secretary of In terior Albert B. Fall, has been summoned to appear next Tues day before the Senate committee which will reopen the Naval oil lease inquiry.
 Everhart has twice refused to testify in civil and criminal cases growing out of the lease of Tea pot Dome to Sinclair. taking the position that it would make him 'ncriminate himself.
 The Government contends that Everhart received $230,000 in Liberty bonds which Sinclair paid Fall in connection with the leas- ing of the Wyoming Naval oil reserve and that these bonds were part of those bought by the Continental Trading Company of Canada out of the $3,O00, 900 profit made in the purchase and resale of the oil from the Texas oil fields of the late A. E. Hum phreys.

MANAGUA. Nicaragua, Jan. 20.-The American Marines fear that the reports of the death of Rebel Gen. Sandino might only be a ruse around his mountain stronghold at Fl Chipote. The only evidence noted by Marine aviators was that the. district seemed desolated.
 Gen. Sandino, if alive, could have fled through the jungles to Honduras or down the Coco River to the Caribbean Sea. Since the Honduran government promised to allow no concentration of rebels on Hondurah soil, it is believed Sandino, if alive. is heading for the sea.

SAN FRANCISCO. Cal. Jan. 20 California and all the west will have it's greatest political oppo-- tunity in 1928. It is to nominate and elect Herbert Hoover as the President of the United States.
 California should see and seize he opportunity that is before it to put westerner in the White House. It may count on tue united support of Colorado Re oublicans.
 This was the declaration here recently of Chairman John R Goen of the Colorado State Re- publican committee, nationally known as one of the most influ- ential members of the Republican national committee.
 Colorado For Him
 Coen is Denver lawyer and is in San Francisco on his way to Sacramento on business.
 Colorado will send a solid Her
  bert Hoover delegation to tha Kansas City convention" he said. "I am confident he will be nom mated and elected.
 He is the legitimate successor of Calvin Coolidge as his party's leader at this time, both upon his record of service to the country and his views upon those issues which will be dominant in the next campaign. not the least Of which Is nationalism and interna- tionalism.
 Calls Him The Man
 His attitude upon tariff reSi- sion and on war debt reduction, his years, his ability and his ax- perience all qualify him beyond doubt as the man to take lr where MT. Coolidge will leave ofs. Colorado is overwhelmingly for Hoover. I am delighted to learn in talks 1 have had with friends here that California sees its ,p. portnnity to elect a western man president"
