put him in tie with Walter Hagen
and such British players as Archie

champion.
Scores were sent skyrocketing by
bad weather conditions, especially in

was scourging the work Of the session
rs absurd and useless, flames suddenly
shot up from the conference table in
front Of the French delegation. A
delegate had thrown a lighted match
on q leaky gasoline cigarette lighter.
There was recoil of delegates as the
flames scared, but General Requin of
the French group seized the huge tray
where the fire was centralized and
bore 1t to window.
Litvinoff Continues Attack
M. Ltvinoff, entirely unmoved by
the incident, continued to attack
what he felt was the negative charac-
ter Of the commissions activities, and
demanded All international disarma-
inent conference be called as early
as possible. when he hoped the peo-
pies voices for real disarmament
could be heard.
The commission adopted Japan
